Huffington Post: Stop the Downward Spiral of Hate in Israel

There is no doubt that the kidnappings and murders of Eyal Yifrah, Gilad Shaar and Naftali Fraenkel touched the hearts of the Jewish People in a powerful, and even unique, way. The question is: why? Given all the terror that Israel has faced, why did this tragic and horrible event touch us so much? I expressed my thoughts on this in my latest Huffington Post blog: Stop the Downward Spiral of Hate.

My original title for the post, btw, was 'Ends and Means' but it was changed by the editors. (I hope the change does not misrepresent my thoughts.)

Please feel free to comment here or there.
