Debra Messing Instagram – I visited Kfar Aza, a kibbutz just over the border of Gaza where Hamas terrorists slaughtered and kidnapped dozens of innocent civilians in their beds on 10/7. I was guided through the detritus by Simcha Greinman. He is the deputy commander in Zaka, a volunteer group that collects body parts to identify remains so families can have bring some dignity to their loved ones and have a proper burial.
There are no words to describe the carnage. These “homes” are tiny. A 6 x 16 room, and a room that fits a mattress. And there were hundreds of bullet holes. The walls, the ceilings. The excessiveness of the attack reveals the depths of hatred that was behind it. Stories of tires set on fire and thrown in to the room to smoke out the kids hiding inside. A husband holding the safe room door closed and being riddled with bullets to let his wife and child escape out a window.
The acts of bravery in the face of terror further solidify my belief that Israelis are the most courageous, resilient, hopeful people I’ve ever met.
May all those souls lost that day, rest in peace. And may all those who loved them find comfort in their memory.
