The Ceasefire has Ended.

The ceasefire has ended.

Meanwhile the NYTimes confirms what has been in Israeli news from multiple testimonies of female watch soldiers for months:

“Israeli officials had Hamas’s battle plan for the Oct. 7 terrorist attack more than a year before it happened, as documents, emails and interviews have shown.

“Israeli military and intelligence officials dismissed the plan as “aspirational”, considering it too difficult for Hamas to carry out.

“The 40-page document, was code-named “Jericho Wall" by authorities and it outlined in detail - point by point, the manner of invasion carried out that led to the lengthy torture and savage massacre of more than 1200 people.“The translated document did not specify the date for attack, but described a methodical assault designed to overwhelm the fortifications around the Gaza Strip, take over Israeli cities and storm key military bases, including a division headquarters.“Hamas followed the blueprint with shocking precision. The document called for a barrage of rockets at the outset of the attack, drones to knock out the security cameras and automated machine guns along the border, and gunmen to pour into Israel en masse in paragliders, on motorcycles and on foot — all of which happened on Oct. 7.”…

May it be exceedingly clear to people across the world that this war is a war for survival. Survival of the state of Israel and survival of the Jewish people worldwide.

You can choose sides, but let there be no pretense what you choose when you do.

This war is confusing to people because it is being led by several wicked leaderships who should long since be rotting in jails, and so you feel unsure whom to defend.

Let me clarify for you and I hope you will hear.

This war is one of good versus evil. It is the one we have been fighting all along.

It matters not whether you love or you hate the Jews, for the evil which burnt down our homes, mass raped and tortured families, is the one gathering strength in your overseas streets at this moment.

What we fight is one and the same.

It is a darkness of a brutal prisoner existence versus the fragile freedoms of self-determination which we have all taken so regrettably for granted.

The threat is the same and it looms over us all.Prepare yourselves: Jewish communities everywhere, and all who value your freedoms. Know it is your responsibility to defend them. No one else is coming.

This is the decisive moment.

The change we long for is alive in potential still, but only if we accept our role to personally see it forward now.*May G-d bless us with strength and with courage, with clarity and precision to live bravely and in His light.*- Ilana Rachel Daniel
