Email from Sderot
I’ve spoken many times about how what’s going on in Sderot is tolerated by the government because Sderot is NotInMyBackYard, and how if it were Tel Aviv being hit by Kassams it would not be tolerated for a single day. Still, because I live in the (current) relative safety of Jerusalem, I can’t really give you a first-hand sense for how embittered Sderot’s residents really feel.
American filmmaker Laura Bialis is currently living in Sderot. Rick Richman at Current Jewish Issues has an email that she wrote to her father in the US describing what this past Shabbat in Sderot was like.
