You started off well and as we kept reading it went from bad to worse. I’ll pick on the 100% part. 100% chance?? That means there shouldn’t be an Israeli soldier alive once they stepped into Gaza. I thought the comment someone made last week was the dumbest of the year. You bumped him out of that spot.

Rachmana Litzlon. B’d’e. The Jewish blood shed does not stop. We must pray to Hashem to send us Moshicah immediately. One must wonder if Al pi Halacha it is allowed for someone who follows Halacha to join the IDF war in Gaza where it’s a hundred precent chance to get killed .
