there was an example given by the mumbai attacks: some clueless ppl are standing outside an operating thearter in a hospital, all they see, is a man who is completely sich, suffering with g-d only knows what, lying on a bed....and then the sergeon picks up a knife and starts cutting him up!!- the ppl run in shouting at the surgeon "what are you doing?!- is it not enough he's already sick?!"----- i think this is not an answer but it is definitly something to think about. all we can do is cry for our fellow yidden, try and rebuild, and beg hashem to send us MOSHIACH NOW!!- and most of all: bd'h and to the family: hamokom yenachem eschem etc..

Oyy!!
This is terrible, my heart goes out to Yossi and Hindel - such special people, anyone who knows them loves them.
May Hashem give you strength to deal with this unspeakable tragedy and may we be united with our loved ones with Moshiach speedily.

as humans with feelings, it is impossible to view a tragey in such a way. yes, im sure G-d has a reason and a plan but to us it is incomprehensible.

Hindel, may you hav ethe strength to get through this crazy, horrific tragedy! You are truly a person who warms hearts- everyone loves you and everyone is grieving with you. May we merit to see moshiach soon so that you can be reunited with your beautiful daughter!

It's ENOUGH
A young innocent 3 year old girl!!! THis makes no sense... Hashem should give much strength to the parents and siblings. Hashem has taken too many young neshamales from us!
The Swerdlows are such special people who open their lives and home to everyone. We are all crying with you!!

You neglected to mention that this precious neshama was named in loving memory of her bubby, Alta Shula Shwartz who passed away, r"l, at a very young age.

Only Hashem Yisborach can understand the Cheshbonos that He makes.

Hashem Yerachem!

Yes now is a time to cry! when somthing like this happens.
tears are Hashems gift to mankind to expirience feel and eventualy overcome hardships.
There is a reason for Shiva.
All logic and stoping to cry comes after (and needs to come).
and yes we need not only cry but do somthing to bring Moshiach.

Practical SEGULOS stave off GEZEIRA
ATTENTION PARENTS

Instead of panic and fear, over the MAGEIFAH of young Dying at allarming numbers,
I'm NOT just refferring to the 6Teens (in less than 3 years) with at least 5 chabad families loosing a young parent RL

Much to painfull to read the search results of an OBM search on this site NEBCH NEBACH ON SO MANY FAMILIES

We are all feeling the bitter pain you must be struggle with every day!!

Let's all unite to fight against this hideouse PLAGUE

Let's all strengthen eachother in these areas (segulos) linked to spiritually PROTECT against ilmess or death RL

Although the reason to serve Hashem should NOT be out of fear or selfishly having a good life

Yet the Rebbeh did list What can be DONE by parents to keep your family blessed alive healthy and safe!

The most pushed "SEGULOS" are:
1. Livdok tfilin & mezizos by RH each year
2. Taharas hamishpacha
3. Be Sure no Jew bares a "KAPEIDA" aka GRUDGE against you,
4. Sheitul if in public
5. Tehilim Shabbos mevorchim
6. Shliach mitzva

May just the very Hachlsta tova itself STOP this viciouse PLAGUE! Amen geulah Now
(10/21/2009 6:22:00 PM)
