Sjefssrabiner og fredsaktivist Michael Melchior og jeg deltok på en verdig minnesermoni i går, 50 dager etter terrorangrepet 7.okt. Samtidig ble flere gisler frigitt av Hamas og palestinere sluppet ut av israelske fengsler. Lysglimt i mørke, og kanskje en sped start på noe varig? https://t.co/4gfLAxMOjA
