How have you been since October 7? What is the feeling in Israel?
The emotional trauma is immense here. On a personal level, by the grace of God, we are doing more or less well. Many people around us fell into depression and lost hope. However, we believe that God remains present. A bit like during the Holocaust: God was there. Generally speaking, everyone is affected; tourists, Israeli citizens, young and old, without exception.
What happened to us this year is, according to many people who lived through the Yom Kippur War in 1973, much worse. At the time, many Israeli soldiers died preventing the opponent from reaching civilians. While on October 7, the attackers directly attacked civilians. There is a real feeling of anger, frustration, immense sadness. And many questions too. Where was our army? How might our soldiers take so long to react?
