Hope Blooms in Kibbutz Nirim - near Gaza
(Times of Israel) Adele Raemer - For the past 40 years I've lived in Kibbutz Nirim, 1.7 km. from Gaza. A year ago this community was a battlefield, with close to 60 days of incoming rockets. We were (and still are) a 5-minute jog from our "neighborhood" Hamas attack tunnel. Most painfully, two of our members were killed, and two more gravely injured. And despite all that, this summer our community has accepted ten new families as Kibbutz Nirim continues to grow.
