The left wing rabbis ignore the core problem. Its not about guns and killings. Keep supporting all cultural left wing liberal ideologies and watch what happens. These shootings are common place in the USA right now and the core comes from broken homes. It takes guts to stand up for true change. Talk about the real problems and stop hiding behind a religiosity that offers no continuity of the jewish people or the human race.

"Joshua Hammerman sees the the grief in Newtown and is reminded of Hannah, from the Book of Maccabees". I'm reminded of something else, from the Book of Numbers: The 'meraglim' (Spies) said: "The land that we crossed to explore is a land that consumes its inhabitants". On the words "consumes its inhabitants", Rashi, citing the Gemara, comments: "Wherever we passed, we found them burying their dead. The Holy One, blessed is He, intended this for [our] good, to keep them occupied with their mourning so they should not notice them [the spies]" [Sotah 35a]. מעשה אבות, סימן לבנים. המבין יבין

Good word (even if you are Red sox fan)…and from death comes light, that my 7th on was born on Zos channukah, and is named after my father…and now, you should rise to Hannah's legacy, and come to Israel.

Are you saying that any of the victims deserved this? Shut up.

How sad that the Rabbi ignores the extreme godless, decadent, violent culture that has poisoned life in America where children are no longer safe from the murders and the sexual perverts while he babbles on about ;.
' We are the miracle. We are the flame. We are the hope."

No we are not, we are now evidently cursed, we are a filthy, wicked and perverse nation feeding at the trough of the most bloody Hollywood violence, having long departing from the law of God and making gods of our degenerant selves while our cowardly religious leaders refuse to tell us the truth and lie to us instead with hollow religious sound bites.

There are times when it is inappropriate to compare tragedies. There are times where we must allow such things to stand on their own. Stop trying to minimalize these children's death. These were innocent little children shot at least 11 times each. We all need to allow time to grieve for these poor children.
