Mourning the Sacrifices: A Mother of Two Fallen Soldiers, and a Former IDF Surgeon-General

By Moshe Herman

Yishai broadcasts a speech delivered by Miriam Peretz, the mother of two fallen IDF soldiers, Uriel and Eliraz, during a "Friends of the IDF" dinner. In her address, she talks about her sacrifice, which she believes is necessary in the fight for the Jewish State. Then, Yishai reads a story he wrote, called "Zikaron" (remembrance), one passage of which is as follows: "In that one moment, I though of gratitude: I am so thankful to you, fallen paratrooper, fallen Jew, fallen brother." Finally, Yishai is joined in-studio by former MK Dr. Aryeh Eldad, former surgeon-general of the IDF and head of plastic surgery at Hadassah Hospital in Ein Karem. He says that if the state of Israel is the thesis of Zionism, then the Holocaust is the antithesis, and the days of remembrance for the victims of the Holocaust and the fallen soldiers and victims of terrorism is the synthesis.
