ISRAEL’S Unbreakable Spirit: Rebuilding After Tragedy
— Raemer, an Israeli resident originally from the Bronx, plans to rebuild her kibbutz despite recent attacks. She believes ISRAEL remains the safest place for Jews. Her determination shows a deep sense of belonging and ownership over her homeland.
Raemer survived the October 7th attack, which was the worst mass murder of Jews since the Holocaust. Despite this tragedy, she maintains faith in Israel’s defense forces. She acknowledges their failure but expects accountability and improvement from them.
Her perspective highlights a broader sentiment among Israelis who choose to stay and rebuild rather than flee. This resilience is rooted in a belief that safety comes from self-defense and controlling one’s destiny.
Raemer notes that rebuilding is harder for those whose homes were directly invaded by terrorists, as those memories linger indefinitely.
