So Israelis are using the nine-month anniversary of October 7 to take stock of where we are. As it does every day, Yisrael Hayom (the Adelson-founded paper meant to support Bibi that no longer supports Bibi) posted its statistics dashboard.
* 274 days of war
* 120 hostages still being held in Gaza
* 680 IDF personnel killed since the beginning of the war
* 324 IDF personnel killed in battle since the ground operation began
* 4091 IDF personnel wounded since the beginning of the war
* 2080 IDF personnel wounded since the ground operation began
Nine months isn’t long enough for this to be Israel’s longest war, but it’s long enough to be getting close.
Nine months is a long time for the 100,000 Israelis from the north not to be in their homes.
Nine months is precisely the amount of time that passed between the announcement of the judicial reform plan the first week in January 2023 and the beginning of the war in October 2023. Nine months of internal close-to-warfare before, nine months of actual warfare since. Without question, the most devastating year and a half in Israel’s history.
Nine months, as the papers all pointed out today, means that if the female hostages were raped upon capture and if they got pregnant, well … it’s too much to even write.
