“We Must Tell the Truth” by Steve Martin

We Must Tell the Truth

 

On Oct. 7, 2023, three years and one week ago, the horrific attack on innocent Israelis, living in kibbutzim (small villages) along the Gaza/Israel border, took place, as over 1000 residents were tortured, murdered, burned alive, beheaded, plus over 200  taken captive back to Gaza.

What does the world cry out? “Genocide!” “Starvation!” “Killing of our innocent kids!”

But they are not crying out for these Israelis who were the actual innocent ones tortured and murdered that day.

I went along with 40 others from the nations, volunteers at Christian Friends of Israel in Jerusalem, on Oct. 14, 2026, to Kibbutz Kfar Aza along the Israel/Gaza border. Three years, one week after that murderous day, the few people left in the small community preserve the homes of those murdered.

That the world will see and know the truth. If they will but look.

This is what the people of the nations needs to see, and these who miraculously survived want the world to see it still, as it was that day.

Continually the nations march in their parades with their pre-made banners and prepared slogans, to make Israel the “evil, racist, genocidal nation” that it certainly is not. By doing so the anti-Semitic liars cover up reality and the truth.

But to this day the truth remains evident. These homes in Kfar Aza have been preserved, from that day as they were so ruthlessly shot, and innocent young residents murdered in them.

Come see the truth. Come know the truth. Reject the world’s lies and stand alongside those who love life and want to live in peace.

We must tell the truth, the way it actually is.

Ahava and shalom,
