Funerals

Last night at Ben Gurion Airport


B"H

So far, the coffins of six identified Israeli terror victims arrived at Ben Gurion Airport last night. The airport was full of celebreties; high ranking politicians as well as the Gerrer Rebbe Yaakov Aryeh Alter and one of the two Vishnitzer Rebbes from Bnei Brak (it didn't say which of the two).

On the plane were also the two - year - old son (Moshe) of the Chabad couple Gabriel and Rivka Holzberg as well as his Indian nanny.

Thousands of people are expected to come to the funerals this afternoon. At 1 pm, a funeral ceremony will be held for the Holzbergs in Kfar Chabad. Afterwards the Rabbi and his wife will be laid to rest on Jerusalem's Mount of Olives (Har HaZeitim).

Unfortunately people may get the impression that all the mourning is just about the Chabad couple and the son - in - law of the Toldot Avraham Yitzchak Rebbe, Rabbi Aryeh Leibush Teitelbaum. Further victims killed inside the "Chabad House" sometimes just seem to be forgotten. The Mexican Jews Norma Shvarzblat Rabinovich, who was on her way to Israel in order to make Aliyah. Furthermore, Ben Zion Korman as well as Yocheved Orpaz from Bat Yam near Tel Aviv.

In Israel, all the dailies have been full with the victim's stories for the past few days already. The country is in shock and hoping that such a terror attack won't happen here.
