This Week Broke Us: Murder in Yerushalayim, Soldiers Killed, and a Voice for Truth Silenced

By: Osniel Rozen

Lots of thoughts swirling in my head.

Sad thoughts
Deep thoughts
Introspective thoughts

I’m not a Gadol Hador, I’m not a Rov, I’m not a Tzadik. I’m a simple Yid. These are my thoughts and feelings. Open your hearts and join me.

This week was a terrible week for Klal Yisroel. A horrible week for Eretz Yisroel. A scary week in America and around world.

On Sunday 2 Palestinian animals killed 6 of our own. 6 Heiligeh Yidden. We were broken. We didn’t know these Yidden, but they are us.
And they were killed because they are us. They were killed because they are Heiligeh Yidden.

On the same day we got the terrible news that 4 of our soldiers were killed in Gaza.
10 Yidden killed in 1 day for being Yidden.

These are the birth pangs of Moshaich, who is literally at the door step.

And then, yesterday political activitist Charlie Kirk was shot and killed. And I heard some people saying why do Yidden care that a goy was shot dead? Why are we posting and making a big deal about this? What about the 6 Kedoshim Hy”d. And I kept thinking and thinking. And thinking some more.

The answer is obvious.

6 Kedoshim Hy”d killed in the streets of Yerushalayim Ir Hakodesh is beyond horrible and horrific.

But why do so many Yidden feel broken about Charlie Kirk?? Let’s break it down. Who was Charlie Kirk? He was a man of morals and truth. He was an oasis of sanity in this completely insane world. He spoke the truth. He spoke the unadulterated emes.

Our whole life as Yidden is about emes. Hashem chose us as His Children is Emes. Torah which is paramount is emes. Eretz Yisroel belongs to Klal Yisroel is Emes.
And Charlie Kirk went around to collage campuses and screamed this to the world. He was a man of truth!!!

A disgusting filthy lowly piece of scum decided that Charlie must be silenced…forever.

The fact that the man was killed is horrible. But more importantly the fact that a man who represents emes and spoke to everyone from all backgrounds with such admiration and respect, the world lost that important voice a is tragedy.

The left stands for falsehoods, for impurity, for transgender rights, they scream that Israel is committing a genocide. Charlie spoke to all of them, & stood his ground calmly, and that’s what the bullet took out.

Our world was shattered when 6 Heiligeh Yidden and 4 Heiligeh soldiers were killed.

And our world was shattered again when a light in this dark dark world was silenced.

Rabboisai, Charlie was חסידי אומות העולם.
It’s not just about the loss of the man it’s more about what he stood for and more than the action that is the action that happened and that we are living in extremely volatile times. If Trump is hitler and his supporters are nazis, then not only is it ok to kill them it’s actually your “moral obligation” to gun them down and silence them.

We are living in scary and dangerous times.

ריבונו של עולם האב שוין רחמנות אוף דיינע קינדרעלעך

Wake up Yidden.

These are all messages from Hashem.

WAKE UP!
