Yesterday was without a doubt the most emotionally chaotic day I’ve ever experienced in Israel.
I was privileged to make Aliyah to Israel 4 years ago. And while I was here during Operation Cast Lead in Gaza at the end of 2008, I was not here during the intifadas.
I have never experienced life during random terror attacks on buses and inside restaurants and cafes. I’ve seen the pictures and the videos. I pass by the memorial plaques, I’ve heard the stories. But I’ve never experienced it first hand. Until yesterday.
