October 7 was a national nightmare for Israel. The day was marked by a catastrophic terrorist attack that left hundreds of Israelis dead—a shock to the national psyche. This day was Israel’s 9/11, Tet Offensive, and Pearl Harbor rolled up into one heinous act of barbarism at the hands of Hamas.

Thanks to assistance and training from Iran, this attack, which was several weeks in the making, began with a hellacious rocket barrage that provided cover for a sophisticated land, air, and sea assault along the Gaza border. Around 1,000 Hamas terrorists invaded Southern Israel, which led to hours of slaughter, rape, and kidnappings.
Hamas took at least 100 Israelis hostage. The images and videos were ghastly. Entire families were wiped out. In Kibbutz Be’eri, over 100 bodies were discovered, including babies. Hamas went door-to-door, killing as many Israelis as they could find. They tried to wipe out whole towns here (via Times of Israel):
They just found 100 bodies in Be’eri. We are witnessing entire Jewish towns being wiped out. I don’t have any words

About 100 bodies have been removed from Kibbutz Be’eri, Hebrew media report, citing the ZAKA search and rescue group
Channel 12 reports that the bodies were removed in refrigerated trucks.
The number of victims killed in the devastated kibbutz, home to some 1,000 residents, is thought to be even higher, according to the reports.
