Montgomery, Alabama
The Israeli military is preparing for a possible ground invasion in Gaza, as it pounds the coastal strip in retaliation for the unprecedented weekend attack on Israel by Hamas. Here in Montgomery, we talked to local Rabbi Scott Looper to get his thoughts. He is the rabbi at Montgomery‘s historic Temple Beth Or, and many of his close family members are currently living in Israel.
" His nephew Litan has already been called up to help the Israeli ground forces because of his past military training with tanks. Rabbi Looper says the love his congregation and community has shown him here in Alabama has helped him stay strong. Looper says,"That’s where we gather our strength so I think that in terms of comfort, it is people reaching out and being able to have conversations. That has helped a lot.
