Efrat Regional Council head Oded Revivi spoke to the Magazine about the Israeli settlement municipality he has managed for the last 15 years.
The ‘Magazine’ sat down with founding father Rabbi Dr. Shlomo Riskin and wife Vicky to discuss the celebrated realization of their vision, and their concerns.
Should the state choose to promote the decentralization of powers for the local municipalities it will discover that solutions will emerge from the local government.
The ceremony was opened by Rabbi Leo Dee, who has lost his wife Lucy and his two daughters Maia and Rina in a brutal shooting attack this past Passover.
When the bullets of the terrorists pierced the pure hearts of Maia, Rina and Lucy Dee, they had hoped to pierce our hearts as well. They didn’t understand that we as a people are unstoppable.
SOCIAL AFFAIRS: Efrat has a population of 13,500. An estimated 50%-60% of residents are native English-speakers. After the terror attack, the community leapt into action.
It only took about an hour after Rabbi Dee's speech before the hashtag #DeesDay started picking up on social media platforms.
The Dee sisters were murdered in a terror attack on Friday morning, and their mother still remains in critical condition.
See no evil: In what universe is there a moral equivalency between ramming a vehicle into people standing at a bus stop and a young person losing his life in a crossfire with terrorists?
