As the news of the attacks began to circulate in communities around Israel, the first reactions were shock and disbelief. Surely, the numbers were exaggerated, people thought. An attack of this magnitude couldn’t happen in Israel. Memories of the Yom Kippur War flooded in, and the thought that history thought to never be repeated was occurring all over again. Israel’s intelligence services can hear conversations in Jericho and Ramallah, find hidden tunnels from Lebanon, and even steal tons of material from a warehouse in Tehran. Is it possible that intelligence services could miss an attack that required months of planning?! The news of killed, kidnapped, and raped Israels was too much to contemplate. This was the Yom Kippur War all over again, and the invincibility Israelis felt for the past few decades had been shattered. We don’t know how the attacks of the Simchas Torah massacre on October 7th will transform Israel years from now. At the moment, when the Israeli people are at war, it is too early to fully understand the effects that the attacks have had on Israel and her people. Since the attack, Israeli society has pulled itself together into a united block, fighting its enemies, supporting its refugees, and praying together for the return of the hostages. Israelis on the right and the left, religious and secular, and from all regions, have pulled together to defeat Israel’s enemies and strengthen Israeli society. One thing is certain, with unity, together we win! This book aims to teach that lesson and many more from Israel’s war in Gaza.
