A True Mother in History’s House of Fame

Nurit’s 13-year-old daughter’s life ended an instant after the young suicide bomber’s.

The media was quick to inform everyone that General Peled’s granddaughter had fallen victim to terrorists.

They squeezed among the mourners at Nurit’s home drooling for a comment about revenge.

Nurit answered them, ”No true mother would wish this on any other mother.”

This true mother, who had been a classmate of Prime Minister Netanyahu, then pointed her finger upwards and stated, ”My government is responsibile for this. Their policies drive young men to such depths of dispair that they offer their lives and the lives of others in their desperation.”

I feel certain that Nurit Peled-Elhanan will win a place of honor in History’s House of Fame under the title:
A True Mother.
