Message de la pr\u00e9sidente de Kehilat Gesher Samantha Woolfe:<\/strong><\/p>\n La synagogue franco-am\u00e9ricaine de Paris Kehilat Gesher se tient inconditionnellement aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s du peuple d’Isra\u00ebl et de l\u2019\u00e9tat d\u2019Israel . Avec nos amis juifs et non juifs du monde entier, nous tenons \u00e0 exprimer notre profond chagrin, notre douleur, notre col\u00e8re et notre sid\u00e9ration face aux tragiques \u00e9v\u00e9nements qui ont durement frapp\u00e9 Isra\u00ebl et ses citoyens.<\/p>\n Nous adressons nos plus sinc\u00e8res condol\u00e9ances aux familles dans l\u2019affliction, qui ont v\u00e9cu un drame indicible et nous prions pour l\u2019instauration rapide de la paix en Isra\u00ebl.<\/p>\n Le c\u0153ur bris\u00e9, mais plein d\u2019espoir dans notre peuple, nous nous tenons aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s d\u2019un Isra\u00ebl plus fort, d\u00e9termin\u00e9 et r\u00e9silient que jamais. Isra\u00ebl vivra et sera soutenu. Isra\u00ebl et le peuple juif surmonteront la brutalit\u00e9 et la sauvagerie qui nous ont frapp\u00e9s. Nous avons besoin d\u2019Isra\u00ebl car nous sommes un second front contre tous nos ennemis et notre foi en d\u2019Isra\u00ebl est immense.<\/p>\n Am Isra\u00ebl Chai. Jamais ces trois mots n\u2019ont brill\u00e9 avec autant d\u2019\u00e9clat qu\u2019aujourd\u2019hui. Le peuple d’Isra\u00ebl vit.<\/p>\n Samantha Woolfe, Pr\u00e9sidente, Kehilat Gesher, Paris<\/p>\n Un message du Rabbin Tom Cohen:<\/strong><\/p>\n Comme vous le savez tous, le Hamas, groupe terroriste soutenu par l’Iran, a attaqu\u00e9 Isra\u00ebl avec une violence, une haine et une sauvagerie sans pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent. De nombreuses victimes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 signal\u00e9es. \u00c0 l’heure o\u00f9 nous \u00e9crivons ces lignes, au moins 600 Isra\u00e9liens ont \u00e9t\u00e9 tu\u00e9s (dont 44 soldats), pr\u00e8s de 2 000 ont \u00e9t\u00e9 bless\u00e9s et des dizaines d’Isra\u00e9liens, y compris des personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es et des enfants, ont \u00e9t\u00e9 pris en otage. Au deuxi\u00e8me jour de cette guerre, les forces de d\u00e9fense isra\u00e9liennes s’efforcent toujours de lib\u00e9rer les villes et les kibboutzim isra\u00e9liens du Sud, les m\u00e9dias montrant la situation dans toute sa laideur, sans rel\u00e2che.<\/p>\n Il s’agit assur\u00e9ment d’un \u00e9chec politique, diplomatique, militaire et de renseignement colossal, qui me rappelle \u00e9trangement l’\u00e9chec \u00e9pique de la guerre du Kippour, dont le 50e anniversaire, selon le calendrier s\u00e9culier, a \u00e9t\u00e9 c\u00e9l\u00e9br\u00e9 vendredi dernier. Cela dit, ce n’est pas le moment de jeter l’anath\u00e8me bl\u00e2me, mais plut\u00f4t de se rassembler et de rester unis.<\/p>\n N’oubliez pas que nous avons un travail \u00e0 faire ici \u00e0 Paris : Nous devons soutenir Isra\u00ebl en agissant maintenant. Voici quelques suggestions :<\/p>\n Nos c\u0153urs sont avec le peuple isra\u00e9lien. Il a besoin de nous. Ne restez pas silencieux. Montrez que vous \u00eates aux c\u00f4t\u00e9s d’Isra\u00ebl et que vous \u00eates<\/p>\n pr\u00eats \u00e0 agir pour soutenir le seul Etat juif qui existe. Courage, Rav Tom<\/p>\n Message from our President Samantha Woolfe:<\/strong><\/p>\n The French American Synagogue of Paris Kehilat Gesher stands with the people of Israel. Along with our Jewish and non-Jewish friends and nations around the globe, we share a collective and profound grief, pain, anger and disbelief at what has unfolded in Israel.<\/p>\n We send our heartfelt condolences to the families who have experienced the unimaginable and we pray that peace will be restored to Israel as soon as possible.<\/p>\n Heartbroken, but not broken, we stand with an Israel that is more proud, determined and resilient than ever. Israel will prevail and she will be supported. Israel and the Jewish people will overcome the brutality and savagery that has been rained down upon us. We are not going anywhere and Israel\u2019s strength is mighty.<\/p>\n Am Israel Chai. Never have these three words shone brighter than these days. The People of Israel Live.<\/p>\n Samantha Woolfe, Presidente, Kehilat Gesher, Paris<\/p>\n A word from our rabbi Tom Cohen:<\/strong><\/p>\n As you all know by now, the Iran-backed terror group, Hamas, attacked Israel with unprecedented violence, hatred and savagery. Numerous casualties were reported, as of this writing, at least 600 Israelis have been killed (44 being soldiers), Close to 2,000 are wounded, and dozens of Israelis–including elderly and little children–have been taken hostage. And as of day 2 of this war, the Israeli Defense Force is still working to liberate Southern Israeli towns and kibbutzim, with the media showing it in all its ugliness, endlessly.<\/p>\n Certainly, it is a\u00a0colossal political failure, diplomatic failure, intelligence failure and military failure, and it eerily reminds me of the epic failure surrounding the Yom Kippur war, whose 50th anniversary, by the secular calendar, was just this last Friday. That said, today is not the moment to caste blame, but rather, it is the time to come together and stand united.<\/p>\n Remember we have a job to do here in Paris: We must stand with Israel by taking action now. Here are some suggestions:<\/p>\n Our hearts are with the Israeli people. They need us now. Don\u2019t stay silent. Show that you stand with Israel and that you are willing to take action to support the only Jewish state that exists.<\/p>\n Courage, Rav Tom<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Message de la pr\u00e9sidente de Kehilat Gesher Samantha Woolfe et du rabbin Tom Cohen\/ A message from our president Samantha Woolfe and our Rabbi Tom Cohen.
