More on the destruction of the Federman and Tor homes motzei Shabbat. The homes of these 2 families were completely razed to the ground by bulldozers and all their belongings crushed and destroyed. For the Federman's this means what one accumulates in 18 years of
marriage - photo albums, personal irreplaceable items in addition to all the necessary things of life.

Help from the community of Kiryat Arba and Hebron, from Efrat and from Jerusalem and other areas is pouring in. A small truckload of personal goods, food, household needs was delivered this afternoon. I was among those traveling to the Federman Farm and we toured the Farm and it's destruction. The physical and visual reality of it was even worse than the pictures.....the viciousness and brutality of the bulldozer drivers crushing and spreading the contents of these homes was palpable.
Remarkably Noam and Elisheva Federman, and Sinai and Rivka Tor, were strong and full of faith. While we tried to encourage them, we were the one who were uplifted by their strength. (Hear Elisheva's first hand account of what happened that night).
