So sorry to see the students stressed so much. A sad reality and nobody in the government is trying to come up with a peace plan. After taking the exams students will flip felafel balls for an income. The future is bright ...

Michael, you are not talking about Cali, are you? Israel bursts with hitech enterpreneurship and students tend to work as interns in hitech companies, rather than flip burgers like their american counterparts. My company does a lot of business with Israel, I know what I am talking about.

The only way to beat this sort of terrorism is to carry on. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone in the south.

well and good, well guess what they ended up dead. Get it together. It is a war..Its either you or them. Who is it going to be? Who will be left standing after all is done?

There is a huge difference between "No fear" and Courage. Kol haKavod to these proud Israeli students.

The whole point of terror is to terrorise, refusing to be terrorised is a form of passive resistance. For the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto to try and carry on as normally as possible despite the horror and danger surrounding was courageous resistance.

A lot of comfortable people have forgotten that lesson (though I'm not saying that you are one of them). It's not enough to sit exams while rockets explode around you. It's not enough to deploy defensive systems like Iron Dome and to include bomb shelters in every building. To be free from fear, you must ensure that your enemies know in advance that if they try to murder you, they will pay a very steep price.

"... if they try to murder you, they will pay a very steep price." which they have --- over 20 terrorists dead.
