Iran reportedly plans to attack Israel on the day of Tisha B'Av, when Jews mourn the loss of the first and second Temples.
A young man was playing a somber tune on a piano as dozens of people waited for the chanting of lamentations to start.
The first word of the Book of Lamentations, the central text of this week’s Tisha B’Av fast, is “eicha,” or "how" – a harbinger to Israel's current situation.
If the parties internalize and converge, on this Tisha Be'av, we will be able to feel that we have learned something from the past and will not repeat the mistakes of our ancestors.
