- Go to Terror in Mumbai; A Tragic Loss
These two were such an aidel couple of people and so gentle
The horror of their deaths is beyond belief. I can not write about it yet and tried to put it into poetry but could not, words can not express the sadness, the disbelief that such an atrocity could be committed against these people by other human beings.
What the Rebbe taught is really true. Do not let darkness overwhelm the light but keep the flame burning and in the deepest night the flame must burn ever more brighter to pierce the darkness and dispell it...

That is a well thought out email. It says what most of us would like to say.

That is so tragic and absolutely senseless. It makes me want to cry.

Thank you for sharing this! My heart bleeds for these victims as it does for the others who were slaughtered by these Islamist butchers! And I do understand the spirit that moves Rabbi Mintz to write as he does! Yet we all, and particularly Jews, must recognize this evil will not be defeated by acts of goodness alone, but by confronting it and fighting it!

O Mal, what a tragic loss! And yet the call is to be kind, caring and giving. So blessed are we to have the Jewish faith in this world. My prayers are with the family. Such a needless loss of life. sammy

It is a terrible and sad day, gapcohen. How awful for their family, for their little boy. Look how young and beautiful they were. You'd think those beautiful smiles would have melted the hardest hearts, but I guess that some are impervious to beauty and kindness.
