more important inspire others hello Miriam Shalom I'm Miriam Peretz I was born in Morocco in Sahara Desert my parents were very poor they didn't know Hebrew they never learned but they know only one word in Hebrew yellow shall I'm not Jerusalem yellow shall I yerushalaim is the paradise of the Jewish nation in 1964 we made aliyah to Israel to your OSHA line bear Sheva and in bear Sheva I I remember the first song that my teacher teach me teach me the name of this song called morning song it's a song that writen by not an ottoman and this song describe this Yahoo shall I in this land let Israel the harem Vashem Ishmael I hated over Emma code not a chattel a new or hava Mata moledet Basim ha Bashir over money we love you our homeland with happiness song and labor if you want to love this left this land you must love energy cell with happiness with song and also with labor but the chorus of death of this song touch me so much the chorus says ma odlo not a no when eaten what we have not given you we will let you have and I ask myself what I can give to this here OSHA line to this homeland because when I come here I see the buildings I saw the buildings I saw this country someone build it for me and what can I do for this homeland and I never imagined that one day I will taste so much for this land I will pay two of my children's le rod-and-reel I blessed with six children four of them fought in Golani in the golani brigade two girls and we live a simple life until the day before Passover three angel knocked on my door they didn't bring with them the Prophet Aliyah rather they were the barrier of terrible news my second son liras 32 years old a deputy commander of battalion 12 was killed fighting the terrorists in the Gaza Strip as ice as I saw them I run I shut the door so no one could enter when they finally come in I grabbed her hand and begged them please don't say the word don't deliver the news just let me my son for one more minute because as long as you don't say this horrible news my a liras still lives it's not normal I say it's a mistake because I paid 12 years before the ultimate price for this country my firstborn really also in Golani a special unit of Golani sierad Golani was killed fighting Hezbollah in Lebanon and if it's not painful enough also my dear husband Eliezer unable to bear the death of real died five years after it was the eve of Passover and we gathered to the Seder without a liras without oil without Eliezer we cried when we write from the Haggadah the whole dough dough on dim Allen on jalapeno in every generation they arise us to destroy us and what can I do with this death it was Passover and we gathered to the Seder with the four little children of a liras the biggest was six years old the little was two months old she did not know her father but we read from the Haggadah something we read a sentence may 8th at on a high desert he knew flat Vienna no it's from a shame we will never understand that and we say also no Ahmad kfe vas appear Messiah I will not die I will continue to live to speak and to told day all the beautiful that I get from ha kadosh boho my sons were sensitive modest and observant they never wish for war they didn't like to fight to fight they only said one sentence mum if they called us to defend our nation we will be there it's our turn we will be in any place that this homeland asked us to be so what I can do with this death I can spend my life crying over my set I can sleep on my bed or the day I can blame blame I did Saha I can't blemish em myself but this is not my way I remember one sentence when Bene Israel entered to this land they heard a voice of Hashem he nany no tennis name it hang in there move it over hot a behind I gave you the life and the death shows the life chose the life so I choose every day I chose to continue to live it's not easy it's not simple and not in this day in the Memorial Day in the corona days it's not easy but I chose every day to see the hand of the God I know that when they come to bring me they the message about the death of my son a liras I ask these barriers to come with me outside here in this place I ask them to look at the heaven and to bring this message to Hashem why because he is the father he is the father of the orphans he is the father of the window my children were orphans and I was widowed I want to know how this father how this father except this terrible news and you know nothing happened the life continued the Sun Shine and the world continued is a normal in that minute I only asked a shame please let give me your comfort luckily nahama please keep for me all these children that I have my grandchildren please please I ask a shame I understand I will never understand your way a shame because I pray so much for my children I light candles every Shabbat and I ask for the life of March of my children not of my life in the wire shape why the four little children of a liras what they do wrong you think you have an answer no no one have answer to this question and now this is my trial if I can continue to love Hashem even I can't understand the way that our shame lead the world if I can not only love love a shame if I can love a stream with happiness how you can be happy how you can be happy when you you take your children to the graves in this land I learn to be happy first I'm a redhead that I learned to to be happy how when I see every day the miracles that ashame give me every day you see it's Corona and I'm here I can continue to breathe yes I can I can celebrate your mouth mouth independent day of Israel I saw the children I see the children of liras how how they agree group I can eat I can walk I see the miracles that Hashem give me every every day and I continue the life but what is life life is how many years you live no because others all the soldiers they want to live they live maybe 20 22 years old but life is not how many years you live life is what you do with your life and these soldiers when they finished to learn at the high school they didn't take a back and went to a a trip they they do this trip after they serve this nation three years they served this nation with missile nefesh with sacrifice with mission LaHood they give to this land their life why too me this moment to be here to continue if you want to be in this land you must pay and if it's not my children we will keep this yerushalaim who know the meaning of yo shall I'm of my father so I continue and this day you know it's very difficult because this year it's not regular here I can't be in Mount healthy I can't stand near the grave of my children but you know the coroner is good for me why because this year I will not choose which child to hug first every time when I go to mount healthy I have to choose which grave to hug first and in the Memorial Day when the siren get up I have to choose next which gray to stand these of Oriel or these of a liras there is only two meters between them and every time it cut my heart and this year I will be at home I will stand near next day photos of my children I will hug real and a liras in the same time and I will say to a Shem thank you for Corona for this moment for this moment that I can be alone with my children and I want you to know that many people think that this day is for us for the families that lost their children no everyday for us it's a memory day every day we remember our children when I cook the meatballs that eliris loves so much I remember my son liras when I ate the cheese cake I remember my son Oriel when I saw the friend of my children I remember them every every moment this day is for all the people to remember how much we pay for this land you must know my children they didn't vote only for the people of Israel they fought also for you to let you to continue to live peacefully in every place to keep for you this land this home this is the turn of my children so in this Memorial Day even I will not be mountain and I will not be with my children and grandchildren and not with all the Friends of my children I will be with you with all the people how because therefore the corona forced us to be far each from the other but it not forced us to be far in our hearts we are together I feel your prayers I feel your wishes I feel your dream and all your prayers about all these in Israel I feel this year more United that that all the years that I know I feel that in Israel and around the world with all the Jewish in the world and I want you to know that the corona will not win us they exert a shame we we believe we have a mana wave Emunah that all these from a Shem and Beata Shem it will be good it's only now this time it's difficult but we will be after the corona and we must be better than we were before we must be better we've had said with giveness we've loved people will we've loved our nation and you know in the memory day in Israel we said two sentences very very famous sentences one is by Motum si vous la new Haim in their death they commanded us life every one of us must ask himself what is the meaning of his life we speak about it it's not how many years it's what you do with your life and the second sentence is Shanna he a requiem lehem to be worthy for them what is the meaning to be worthy how we can be worthy I want to tell you a little story the meaning of to be worthy to all these soldiers one week after my son a liras fallen we went to the house of a liras in Le it was Shabbat and my son Elias ah've went with my grand child or her - will the firstborn of le rise and the walk they walked in on this in the street it was a big stone and they continue all hih - begin to scream - my son ELISA you are not my father and Elias are saying I know I'm your uncle you are not my father and the lira said I know I know I know that your father had fallen in Gaza I'm your uncle why you scream so much and all had a saint you know why you are not my father because every time when I was walk with my father on the street and there is a stone my father put the stone from the street he think about the people that will be in this street he never ignored from anything from anything to think about the other not only to think about ourselves to think about our family our community our nation it's to be worded how if we can take one characteristic of these soldiers and put these characters to our life we can change this life so my friends I want to tell you our enemies they want not only to kill our children they want also to broke our spirit but they didn't know that this period of this nation they can never broke it this this period even the corona it will grow and grow this is the spirit of I'm Israel shallow Maryam well thank you but I have a question for you we're all sitting as we are today on yamazaki 1 and tomorrow is going to be a lot smote and like we've been sitting for last month month and a half we're all sitting alone we're all sitting closed in our houses when I going out to the parks and having barbecues when I going out and dancing tonight it's going to be very different your mat smooth how we supposed to be happy how we supposed to have seen hot ok how we can celebrate your match mode without barbecue without dancing outside without picnic how we can do that we can be happy because what is the happiness what is the meaning you of happiness happiness it's only outside happiness can be at home with your family with your children I know it's very difficult it's very difficult to be or this day with the children but the corona give us a change to learn the meaning of to be a family before corner we work so much we come home we come back maybe at 7 o clock how much time we see our children did we have some hours to speak with them before now we bless the children is the braja forma shame and this is the time to sit with these children to speak with them to do what we learn in Passover very glad a Taliban era to tell them the story of this nation it's for me to celebrate your mots mode to sit around the table with the children to speak about artisanal to cook something good to hear some songs that you love and you must take to your heart a sim ha the happiness how you know it you know it is very easy to light candles it's not easy light the happiness

stories weather was not slow East not was a be she labor see Allah they snuck la ciudad para to the realtor is Managua Mundi knock hello doggy what happened 72 years ago the entire world shifted into a new era history changed the trajectory of Jewish history and of course of human history was irrevocably altered we feel it we sense it the gomorian Shabbos rather claims that when a person ascends to shamayim and faces is all the husband every person will have to face some basic questions from our Kurdish Sparkle were you involved in a moral and ethical lifestyle did you dedicate time for Torah study did you invest massively and raising your children a Socktober peer review review but one of the questions and part of Jewish identity part of firm kite is CP sylia schewe did you live in your world embrace it advance it embed yourself in it but did you accept it as the only reality or did you live in this reality but imagine a different one did you split your visions put your imagination realizing that you live in a certain world but you promised a different world you live in one place but you belong in another place can you pull off that bifurcation can you live two lives without it becoming schizophrenic living a life in which you embrace but you also dream of something else and Jews have always dreamed and finally the dream started to materialize so one of the questions is CP Silvia schewe for 2,000 years CP Silvia schewe meant waiting waiting with stamina with belief with prayer with mitzvahs knowing that every Mitzvah contributed to a redemptive arc to a redemptive process but essentially were pawns of history we had no historical empowerment so we just waited now it's a different era and when we ascent to show my eMED manifest rym the question of CP sylia sure isn't just did you wait but did you sense a cottage bar whose presence in history did you contribute to that did you advance the process because I could have Sparkle has embolden us with tools were now partners in the process we're not just waiting to be the beneficiaries but the process has begun and I could Ashbaugh who expects us to be authors for 2,000 years Jewish life was so rich and deep and we built communities and Terra flourished and we built Terra and we build Jewish identity and Jewish culture emerged but something was always missing we always had that fragility no matter how comfortable we were it was transient it was passing whether we're Spain or Poland or Baghdad Jews knew that there were visitors there were guests it's amazing what we built as guests but we lived at the mercy and lived at the mercy of our hosts and we lived at the mercy of events we couldn't control and sadly enough throughout history we suffered the tragedy if not possessing sovereignty and not being able to defend ourselves and of course it was punctuated by the Holocaust the single greatest solution since we were expelled from you shall I am the systematic attempt to eliminate Jews not just from Europe Hitler had blueprints of synagogues from New York City found in his bunker he actually had a list of 200 Albanian Jews that's how systematic and how obsessed he was with exterminating our people and that all changed and before we think on this day about all the messianic potential and all the excitement that this day brings in this day promises just remember how much we needed a home and how much we need its security juvie now she Lim knew - mmm Kamala laughs I mean ooh huh means many things it has a spiritual connotation but it primarily means a place of peace of serenity of stability and not just a home and freedom but the pride and the identity that comes with knowing you were at home and even if you don't live in the State of Israel knowing that you have a home that your family lives in that home now that home is waiting for you and beckons you shoobie now she Lindo - I want to recite those words think about all the Holocaust survivors who were ported from country to country no country was willing to take them in and then finally in 1948 xu v nasi lemak wisely but it's not just a place in a home it's also the pride the identity that Minu huh see them you know Heisley possesses and provides the Comenius lea RC know the Jewish world has made such impressive advances over the last 80 years in a communal level and this is a shear being circulated by the oh you and it such an important role North American primarily of course the world is well communal identity and communal stability community development but not just in communities the Torah that we've built the palaces of authority Shiva world the learning the growth the influence the political look at what we've developed very little of this would have been possible without coming news if there are people living learning growing it's because deep in our subconscious and the Jewish subconscious we walk with greater pride and when we walk with greater pride with greater coming news be holy say new come a million say you know up right rather than bend over proud to wear a keep out in public proud to be identified as Jew is proud to have an identity for the first time in two thousand years that pride isn't being met with anger and with hostility and it felt deeply by everyone in our people all that were not have impossible I remember my Sadie told me a story and he was walking home from shul as a youngster in white russiaís at Bar Mitzvah boy he was accosted by a Russian soldier who told him you have 20 minutes to go home and say goodbye to your parents and pack your belongings I am requisitioning you into the Russian army as World War 1 was anti-semitic you just needed a weapons bear if you're not back in 20 minutes I'll hunt you down and I'll murder you and your entire family I remember asking my zaydis Eddie what did you do when he looked at me and he took my hand in his hand that he said mashaallah I mean as most should be called me Meisha Litvak he said what could I do I ran home collected my trail and ran back because I didn't want my family to be butchered I lived haunted by that story on my 13 year old grandfather fleeing from drunk Russian soldiers across frozen Tundras in Russia the second year after I made aliyah I was returning home on Konica the night we celebrate the hug we celebrate Jewish sovereignty coming me to a smokeless Caesar L even though it's a pale pale image of the mouth was Easter all we hope for when we yearn for I was driving through bait left hand there was no bypass road and I saw a police woman in my rearview mirror and she pulled me aside she pulled me over and she told me that I was speeding and she wrote a ticket and as she was writing a ticket I started crying I said my grandfather lived in abject fear of drunk Russian officers and Here I am receiving a traffic ticket from my own police woman who's probably on her way home to light her own chronica candles because every Jew in Israel dotty and not dotty those are very very loose loose leg voles every Jew in Israel lights candles every Jew in Israel has a seder and the Seder was it's very very poignant this year obviously the Masters I'm Head star moans ooh those who didn't don't keep classical aha I said what a sauce it is not to get traffic tickets but to live in my country with my police and my soldiers do you know what your grandparents would do if they saw a Jewish soldier even without a keep out on call of a home or silly if they saw a heads door boy where this sits is down is keep on holding a mission that his back pocket they would start crying and they probably won't stop crying until Rosh Hashanah because for thousands of years soldiers represented fear terror rape butchering murder with impunity Jews were just at the full full Caprice of soldiers marching through town stealing their food quartering themselves in their homes and taking advantage of them in so many different ways so we think I could have Sparkle sube nasi lemak I see we thank our Kurdish bar who cash em gum Allah likely we thank our Kurdish bar who the ability to thank Ashima to see the hand of their bonus Shalom in history not just in nature not just in his Torah although primarily not just in mitzvahs but the CD yatta sham in history and to be thankful for the great Nissen we don't understand the Holocaust but we still II want to thank I could Asheboro home for the great needs to men allowing our people to reconstitute themselves in the wake of that tragedy and to rebuild our people in Eretz Israel and to have that reconstruction project radiate out from the Columbia's we feel in Eretz Israel but we also want to thank our Kurdish abajo not just for ourselves but want to thank him for him why do we want to thank him for him we say in our dominating every day near on a nubby shoe Assefa the shame el okay no need go now be sure Sokka we want to be we want to celebrate your salvation it's not your salvation that we wait for it's our salvation our Redemption our Liberator and not be sure I say no why don't we recite and run and not be Shu Assefa the answer is because we are his ambassadors we represent Hashem in this world we always have Gary as our alphabet slum I am the second that Jews were given their mission to represent their bonus column to represent Hashem Assad regime Oh Akkad to represent the moral essence of Chris Jericho from the moment we were missioned we were hated for it because we challenged the world and people don't like to be challenged and as part of the hatred directed towards us and as part of her own internal failures the eggl the more ugly Ammar disloyalty during the base I make this primarily the first base I make - we suffered we wandered we wandered the sands of time we wandered through Exile Jewish plight was deplorable as your situation was sad and gloomy borns you suffer we're not the only ones who suffer how Kurdish Berkeley suffers Kurdish bar who suffers for two reasons first of all because even though Kurdish bar was Infinite and beyond time beyond place only beyond events in this world but his SH Lina and the struggle to bring his presence into this world regresses when Jewish people suffered the arc of Jewish people is really the trajectory of a Shemesh Lina when we rise his presence augments and when we fall and we decline his presence recedes and diminishes so for 2,000 years it was so difficult to find the AA Shem to an average bystander view in the base matters where you were holding a little of you are accessing on Kurdish bar go through some timeless route that had no need for external framing or external ratification or justification but we're not just interested in a shams presence being expressed to those who can Intuit him in a lulav or matzah or wat kumara we want the world to see hi i said remember i'll call are at speed i'll call poki atop a alto you have in Konya turkey italia doctor we want every view i'ma call a shared neshama by Oppo anyone who breathes and right now we're trying to struggle to breathe and our breathing is dangerous and Karla Sharon is Shama raka pay no mercy I fashioned the air of our nostrils should bring mushiya for the literal sense the second a Siberian rockefeller Rapha Boehner mushiya Hashem so for two thousand years the SH Lina was hidden was obscured and the Selina suffered she ain't a bigger loser the Selena was suffering with us like a the screen of meaning our shams presence the palpability then no disability of a gym in our world and a shame was sad because his children were suffering and when we dive and he doesn't and when we were miserable he was miserable and a father that had to expel his children and then that changed in 1948 that Sheila wash em of two thousand years of absence and obscurity and concealment of a shame and sadness well the sudden a great great kiddush Hashem our stayed our people and what a state and what phenomenal accomplishments spiritually the pride that people feel in our country not perfect it's not pure it's not flawless but a Shems presence is far far more palpable in 2020 and it was in 1920 not to mention 1940 someone we say how El Lolo know Hashem Lolo know km a shim katenka vote we're happy on this day not just because of everything that we benefited from in our home in our freedom and our sovereignty and our pride and our horizons and our hope but we're happy for you lo'laan osm la mano came with shim katinka vote we are here living in our state and living in a world with the state they bring glory to you to draw you into this world so that people will sense you so that we're closer to mouth position the same words the Fernanda Michelle and Azaria recited according to it where I'm sucking when they were about to be flung into the kitchen they don't care whether we live or die it's not important but for you this is a seam of history it's a very delicate point in history and in Voronezh are destroyed the base I make those people were doubting where the Jews chosen is I'm still care shame is make a statement I think about Kanani Michelle and Azaria in 1945 should have to make a statement we don't know why the Holocaust in the state of is about they clearly the Holocaust represented a killer sham of unparalleled proportions and a kind of spread wide to create an event that would restore some semblance some proportion of our Kurdish bar whose renewed presence in our world told the story before but my grandfather remember about 15 years ago 20 years ago now the there was a commemoration ceremony for the liberation of Auschwitz and Jews will gather from across the world to visit those train tracks that had witnessed such death and horror and the Jewish Israel requested a flyover that the Israeli Jets should fly over the train tracks and initially the Polish Parliament buckle and then refused and then a few weeks later the Polish army invited the Israeli Air Force to participate in war games and the squadron commander of the Israeli Air Force unit who was a Sparty Jew who wasn't even as lay his family wasn't imperiled by the Holocaust said Jewish Jets will only fly in red on which was the Polish city with the air games and war games were about to take place if they first fly in Auschwitz and of course the Polish Parliament conceded remember that day is a convocation of Jewish leaders gathered and hoisted flags and saying that if across those horrible horrible train tracks he pulled his team into formation in the skies above and he announced over his radio kikaha Tabora me Sorrell one flight for the Jewish people given Hebrew means a sortie or a fly over G Hawk authority saw one flight for the land of Israel gahahaha worker burnisher one flight for Holocaust victims and he swooped down over those tracks and I remember thinking to myself in 1944 in the summer of 1944 how desperate were we for that one fly how desperately did we plead with Roosevelt and Churchill and ice and alpha one uncontested bombing mission over the train tracks from Budapest to Auschwitz 1944 could have say three quarters of a million Jewish lives we're looking at the numbers in the pandemic 750,000 Jews were killed from Budapest and hungry in the latter stages of the war the skies of Europe when complete allied control the Luftwaffe had been decimated how many bombing missions were conducted and yet three quarters of a million Jewish lives were not worth one uncontested bombing mission and we didn't have that flight and I can't imagine a pillow sham greater than that now it was about sixty years later now we had our fight and we had our Air Force and I felt as if I was living through a condition vas Lamantia mission did it not just for our sake for our sake as well but for his second let's celebrate past La Mancha me let's celebrate the refreshed presence of a Kurdish bar ho in our world that's what changed we benefited but we also went out just the we weren't the only beneficiaries that Kurdish men who as it were benefited and then of course it's not just what happened but what we expect to happen we expect this to be part of a process no one can tell you how long the process will take no one can prophesize the quality the texture of the process but we know it's a process where you know that events that have started are irreversible and that even though the process of redemption is a long process these 2,000 years as I mentioned before mitzvahs and feelings of who Yeltsin but now we're empowered to take real concrete actions building buildings building a country building our people who are building our identity building our culture and why is that well which will directly in a human realm every feel every Mitzvah counts but in a human realm we'll be able to trace our efforts to the conclusive and concluding chapters of history we don't know anything other than how it will end where it will end we don't know who will carry is three to its conclusion we certainly don't know how quickly will be the caliber these are experiences which are larger than the human imagination we're living through a pandemic which reminds us of the limits of human imagination and how there are experiences which are too large for us and I Kurdish Baro reminded our museum twice then when you start to think about gula realize you're entering their war that's larger that's beyond human ration beyond human decipher ability Kurdish brow hotels your me on Parra climbing days how you Paul Amy Manny called of our your me your questions whether or similar you build your shoreline because he's living in the walls that are falling apart in the city's on fire sim says how many many people a called of our by the land the new shall I murmurs and fills your Mia your me a purchase land as a simin as a symbol as an omen for reconstitution your mere would have been a very very rich person today had he kept the deed to the land he bought from

poli I'll also be shocked a sham says keep on Yahoo so twice a Sherman reminds us of the Pella of the mysteries is Google unfolding the way we would expect it if I was scripting hoola what did the state be from wouldn't there be more less enemies wouldn't the moral texture of our country be different of course but that's the point Google ax is irrational rule is beyond human comprehension it's specifically their rationality of redemption that renders it redemptive we try to change our world and fix our world and repair our world as best we can but when we can't and when we fall up short and we always fall up short Hershberger who descends into history and redeems our world for us in ways that we can't and can't understand so guerrilla never makes sense that's what makes it redemptive and that's what makes it so hard for people don't appreciate it understand ghoulish elfanara is much simpler Shakalaka that's simple but it's rational it's map its category simmons if Simmons if how large should this little of be how much muscle should you we have black sugar it's felon be it's rationed based gula it's about the jewish soul it's about knowing you come from somewhere else you come from a different time for a different era you're a foreigner here Daria's are often Garavito shove just because you're a foreigner does mean you live fear doesn't mean you don't invest in your world but we belong somewhere else and we sense in our heart that Drew who hasn't been to Israel and since this is my place these are my people this is my future so when we say not just la la la la la no to think I could have Sparkle for restoring the glory of his name and when we say sube now she'll in new Heisley but when we say may Hashem High says oh this came from there Bonjour Elam Heaney flows ba Mei new to us at shocking it's not that way we would have expected it to happen we weren't have expected to happen three years after the Holocaust we won't have expected it to happen facing so many enemies we wouldn't have expected to happen being driven in a secular manner none of these are what we would have expected but that doesn't make this event in our state in this process any less CI Hashem and any less redemptive so I want to wish everyone a Foghat smart that y'all matzah with Samia it's a lot to think about ought to be thankful to our Kurdish bar who we don't know where all this pandemic is landing but hopefully the Jewish people in zubur state will continue to take the lead in healing the world but we know of course that as much as we tried as much as we'll develop vaccines as much as we hope that some of it will come from Israel it's a shameful healing can only be delivered by Kurdish barkow when the world is healed not just medically not just economically not just politically but spiritually president semi Kurdish bar who is apparent to all in that world men will be healed the world will be perfected and we will say ho do leather no Akito key the olam costo yum
