Stories of the Disengagement 4
Okay, todays story is a follow-up on something I posted a earlier in the day.
15 Chabad teens are in the basement of a Gaza shul and are threatening to set themselves on fire if they are force out.
Okay I understand protest, but as I said earlier, I really don't get this idea of hurting themselves in protest. It certainly isn't Jewish. (I mean it isn't like the Gush region is Masada. I think all of the comparisions to The Shoah has caused people to react as though there life was being threatened.)
If any one has any ideas, to help me understand this, I would appreciate it.
