the army, but we’re not.
“There are a lot of people in 
the army from Detroit, and I 
feel for all their mothers whom 
I’m friends and relatives with,” 
she continued. “Some of them 
I’ve known since they were 
kids … Really, all these kids 
are all of our kids. And yes, it’s 
the biggest, strongest army in 
the world … but it’s made up 
of our kids.”
Physically, Kresch family 
members are OK but, like the 
rest of the country and world 
Jewry, they are in deep shock 
and mourning. 
“Everyone knows someone 
who was murdered or kid-
napped. Entire communities 
were decimated; there has 
been funeral after funeral after 
funeral,” Susie said bleakly. 
“I’ll never forget Holocaust 
survivor Manny Mittleman of 
blessed memory, telling me 

how confusing and hard it 
was looking the devil in the 
eye and discovering he had 
a human face … We want to 
believe in good and can’t com-
prehend evil, but here we are 
once again forced to see it in 
front of our eyes.”
But then Susie’s voice 

changed as she described what 
she saw at the airport when she 
was picking up her daughter, 
Atara (see page 28). Hundreds 
of reservists arriving from all 
around the world, leaving their 
lives, willingly jumping at the 
chance to do whatever they 
can to defend the homeland. 

A nonstop stream of donated 
supplies from all over the dias-
pora for the heroic soldiers — 
“our kids” — on the front lines. 
Constant chessed being 
done to help those who are 
displaced and aching. There’s 
determination, love and hope, 
a swelling pride and unity. 
“The resolve and strength of 
our people to come together, 
united as one nation, as one 
family, here and from all over 
the world, to help our soldiers 
and all the families in need, is 
just beautiful,” Susie said. 
She held her new grandson 
close after a heartbreaking 
day of giving free chiropractic 
adjustments to shattered peo-
ple who were displaced. “May 
we be a light unto the nations 
and may good destroy evil 
once and for all so our brave 
soldiers can all come home 
soon.” 

Grandparents Ari and Marlin Jaffe, and Susie and Ed Kresch flank the 
parents, Ben and Talya Jaffe, with new baby Yonatan Pinchas.
