Is the unremitting and uncompromising focus with which Israel pursued Yahya Sinwar – at the cost of hundreds of Israeli lives and tens of thousands of Palestinian lives – a demonstration of its alpha-and-omega security policy, first set out by Zev Jabotinsky 101 years ago, called “The Iron Wall”?, and What should we think and feel about the very violent death of that very violent man, Yahya Sinwar? —Simchat Tora One Hebrew Calendar Year After Oct. 7th— For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: One Hebrew calendar year after Hamas’ attack on Israel, our religious communities have thought long and hard about the appropriate way to celebrate Simchat Tora.
