Just three men against hundreds of terrorists
The Rav has referred quite a few times to ‘three soldiers’ who managed to hold off literally hundreds of terrorists all by themselves, on Simchat Torah.
He mentioned the Kissufim crossing…. but I didn’t find anything ‘real life story’ that seemed to match those details.
Until just now.
Watch this (no gory stuff, but lots of sounds of shooting):
====
It’s the story of two police and two soldiers, who heard what was going on, and drove down to Kfar Aza all under their own steam.
They didn’t know each other beforehand, and just ‘met up’ there.
One of them even came down from Jerusalem.
And somehow, they managed to keep fighting for hours and hours and hours – even though one of them was seriously injured early on.
The two soldiers – both dati, btw – went up on a roof and just started picking off the terrorists.
For hours and hours and hours.
While they were waiting for ‘the army’ – someone, anyone – to show up and help them defend Kfar Azza.
It’s truly an astounding miracle – and also, more proof of just how Am Yisrael got totally stitched up by our so-called ‘intelligence failure’ at the top levels of government and military.
Ahem.
====
In the meantime…. this story only came out six days ago in public, yet the Rav was talking about it from the first week after the terrible atrocity of October 7th.
Just, I couldn’t track it down.
====
On a seperate but related note, my daughter was telling me that while she is 100% understanding the families of the kidnapped doing everything they possibly can, or that they ‘think’ they can, to get their family members back, she has had enough of live soldiers getting sent into Gaza to bring back dead bodies.
Apparently, there was a story recently of three soldiers who got killed while on a mission to ‘rescue’ two dead bodies.
More and more people are saying enough is enough here, even dyed-in-the-wool dati leumi flag-waving believers in the ‘IDF’ and ‘carpet bombing Gaza’.
====
On a seperate but related note….
There was one more ‘detail’ that came out about those three kidnapped Jews who we are told, in lurid detail, over and over again, somehow got accidentally killed ‘by our guys’.
I can guarantee you 100%, they were not killed accidentally by ‘our guys’.
Whatever else happened to them.
Hamas are not nice.
They don’t just leave three hostages alone and alive while they pop off down some tunnel somewhere, so they IDF can happily scoop them up without a fight.
More and more people are understanding the story doesn’t stand up to any real scrutiny.
Hamas would have killed them, not left them alive, if they were going to leave them at all.
And for sure, they wouldn’t have left them above ground, in a house stocked with enough food for them to go find a ‘convenient’ white sheet they could ‘conveniently’ write a whole message on using paprika…..
Really?
Really?
And dafka, these are the guys that our army apparently didn’t know were Jews, even though the army is clearly in Gaza looking for exactly these Jews, their faces are plastered all over the place – and one of them was very light skinned, blue eyed and had a mop of ginger hair….
Dafka, this is the hostage that got ‘shot dead’ by the IDF as a case of mistaken identify?
Really?

Tov.
Time to make supper.
May God rescue us from the madness and lies very, very soon, but it really does look more and more people are starting to openly call out all the manipulative, evil BS we are constantly being baited with.
May that process continue…. speed up…. and amplify.
Only God would be able to support 3 guys like that on last Simchat Torah! I love HIM!
Of course we’d like to know what REALLY happened with our 3 guys who were killed.
Rivka, we love you. Up and down the roller-coaster and all.
I was reading on another blog that the 3 hostages who were killed were prayed for the non Jews . And if they survived everyone would have said it’s their god who saved them. A big chilul Hashem so in the end it was all for the best no matter that it looked bitter in the moment. The same way Yosef told his brothers “ ani Yosef” and they then understood everything Hashem will say “ani Hashem” and we will know and understand why we had all our sorrows and troubles.
Yes, thanks for that connection.
For sure, whatever is going on at the moment, it’s Hashem orchestrating it all, ultimately for the very best.
And I don’t think the real story of the hostages is what we’re being told.
It’s part of setting up the Jewish people for ‘the next stage’ of what they are trying to get started here, God forbid.
BH, I’ll write more about that in its own post.

Dec 16, 2023,….https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/382049….The NYT investigation also showed that US and Israeli officials “failed to prioritize financial intelligence — which they had in hand — showing that tens of millions of dollars flowed from the companies to Hamas at the exact moment that it was buying new weapons and preparing an attack.”
