"The period that begins with last week’s Holocaust Remembrance Day and continues
through tonight’s Remembrance Day for the Fallen of Israel’s Wars is dominated
by the themes of sacrifice, death and loss. By the time we get around to
the joyous celebration of Jewish sovereignty on Independence Day on Thursday, we
will have traversed a turbulent emotional gauntlet of tears and mourning. The
sadness that permeates this week leading up to Independence Day is tempered by
an accompanying conviction that our collective suffering and sacrifices were not
pointless."
