After Hamas attacked their country this month, many Israelis fled to hotels, where they sought some version of safety. There, they’ve been processing their trauma as they move from that harrowing morning into a new world. In the Opinion video above, filmed in the days after the attack, survivors reflect on what they lost, whom they blame and what’s next — for them and for Israel.
Despite being at war, polling from the Israel Democracy Institute suggests that Israelis are more optimistic about the future of their country now than they’ve been at any other point this year.

Older lady: "I truly believed that the people on the other side were not terrorists, they want to live in peace like me. But now we can't trust anyone"
Mother: "I always believed a mother on this side of the borer was like a mother ont he other side.... I don't know if I can go back to believing that"
Young lady: "I am a leftist to my core. In previous rounds of conflict when I would see videos of mothers and children in Gaza, I would cry. Really, my heart would break. Now I see it, and, I don't have that empathy. It's not in me anymore."

The left want everyone dead, not just Jews.
Well, anyway that disagrees with their worldview at any rate.
Who would’ve thought we’d see a pogrom in Russia in this day and age?
The Nazis weren't stopped in WW2. They were just relocated to the United States and integrated into the Democrat Party.
BTTT

Well, to be honest, I think every US taxpayer is already paying.
