MIRACLE NEEDED TO FIND SURFSIDE SURVIVORS From the editor’s desk
Still missing: Chaim Rosenberg and daughter and son-in-law Malki and Benny Weisz
BY DAVID SAFFER A miracle is needed to find survivors a week on from the 12-storey tower block disaster in Surfside, Florida. At least 16 people have been confirmed to have died, including Aryey and Ruth Oliwkowicz, originally from Venezuela, who were found last weekend. Colonel Golan Vach, the Commander

of the Israeli National Rescue Unit search and rescue team, confirmed more bodies had been found on Tuesday night. Specialist personnel are working in the spaces between collapsed balconies. “We found people. Unfortunately, they are not alive,” he reportedly said. CONTINUED ON PAGE 2
Many Jewish people have passed away in recent tragedies. In Meron, people were crushed by falling down and 45 Jews died. In Karlin, the bleachers collapsed and three people fell down to their deaths. All those who passed away were males yet a minority of rabbis around the world decided to use the opportunity not to promote world achdus (unity) but rather to sow yet more seeds of disunity among our people and come out against lace sheitles, despite the fact that no women died. Three members of a Jewish family perished in a terrible cable car accident in Italy, after the cable car fell down. Last week in Miami, another tragedy. A building fell down. At the time of writing 16 people have died and 149 are missing including sadly many Jews. Of all the millions of buildings across the world, the one that falls down is full of Jews. Hashem is clearly talking to us!

As Reb Yitzchak Berkovits said recently, if rabbis have a problem with lace sheitles, they should have banned all sheitles long ago! According to the ruling of Reb Moshe Feinstein, nowadays people know that women wear sheitles so there is no issue of people thinking it’s normal hair (Maris Ayin). It’s time to wake up and realise that we have lost people across the Jewish spectrum from Chasidim to people that do and don’t cover their hair. During this period of the three weeks we must realise that we don’t have our Temple back not due to lace sheitles but due to Jewish people putting other Jewish people down. If we look back at the last 2000 years of our exile and actually try to improve how Jewish people act with one another, then perhaps the Jewish future will be laced with more hope rather than hate.
