It is home, spiritually to all Jews and physically to my parents, sister and much of my family. This house has always been in a tough neoghbourhood, and the residents of the house grew up tough, as a result.

But the mob outside has grown, they are carrying jerrycans and torches, and the friends we used to have are bored of our troubles.
