Hostage in Gaza: Ofir's Heroic Rescue and Capture by Hamas. A Haunting Story.
In episode #36, recorded on November 20 before any hostage release, we delve into the daring escape orchestrated by 27-year-old Ofir Tzarfati. Running barefoot for miles, he guided his friends to safety, but tragedy struck when he got separated, shot, and is now held hostage deep within Gaza. Hodaya, Ofir's best friend, recounts this heart-wrenching tale. The episode also explores the chilling Hamas terrorist attack on October 7 in Southern Israel. More than 3000 terrorists unleashed chaos, claiming the lives of 1200 civilians in their homes, cars, and even at the Nova Peace Festival, comparable to America's Burning Man Festival.
It's essential to note that Hamas is designated as a terrorist organization by several countries, including the United States, the European Union, Canada, and Israel. While there may be some hostage releases, the likelihood of Hamas removing all hostages, their sole leverage, is minimal.
This episode marks the first in three series focusing on the October 7 Terror Attack.

Customer Reviews
Great topics timely and interesting interviews
I’ve found all of Jennifer’s podcasts interesting, uplifting, and the interviews have led me to new books to read or companies to investigate. I’ve cried at some of the heartfelt stories. And I have felt like I have gotten to know the person being interviewed and what they are offering to the listener from their life experience. I appreciate that in an interview where you really get to know the person being interviewed. Fabulous podcast!
Going for Greatness - A GREAT Podcast
I am on the road in my car quite often, so I have become a self-described expert on podcasts and what makes one better than another. What I look for most is whether at the end of the podcast I have all my questions asked and answered. Ms. Weissmann does that with impeccable grace and skill. Her guests have fascinating stories that demonstrate resilience in the face of what seems like insurmountable problems and issues. I come away feeling positive about humanity and our abilities to rise up in the face of adversity and triumph. So I am very grateful to have the positivity that generates optimism and provides real world examples. I also prefer to have some of the personality of the interviewer come through. And it does. To me that means that Ms. Weissman would be someone who I would like to have coffee or share a beer. So I keep coming back to hear more. Keep up the good work!
Great podcast
The guests on the show share inspirational, sometimes moving, and contemporary stories that we can all learn from. Short listen and a great way to start the day.
