The families are fighting for the lives of their loved ones, there is no protocol in the war for the lives of prisoners.” This is what Tami Arad, the wife of the late pilot Ron Arad, who was kidnapped and fell in Lebanon, wrote on her Facebook account today (Saturday). She also added: “No one in the world has the right to tell the families of the abductees how to behave even if he paid the highest price of all.”
The words were written by Arad, who does not often speak publicly once morest the background of the IDF’s announcement that the body of the late Elad Katzir abductee was found and rescued from Hamas captivity and ahead of the expected protest tonight on Kaplan Street in Tel Aviv.
The late Ron Arad and Tami Arad,
“At demonstrations for the abducted, I stand in the crowd and notice Ron’s eyes staring at a sign approaching or receding with alternating captions. ‘May there not be another 134 Ron Aradim,'” she wrote. “Until October 7, I believed, and even consoled myself, that Sharon would be the last. I never imagined that this nightmare would meet so many families.”
“The return from captivity does not depend on a breakthrough drug, on the occurrence of a miracle, but on the decision of human beings. It is not Sinwar who is required to make the decision, but the Prime Minister of Israel is the one who is required to make the decision. Willing – they will return. Unwilling – they will stay in Gaza, or return as The late Elad Katzir.
She also told regarding a text that one of the fathers of the abductees received, in which a bereaved father was furious at the families who went out to cry out their pain on the roads. “In his eyes, the madness is not the abandonment of the abductees, not the murder of captives, not the detention of people over 80 years old, not the young Enos, but the angry demonstrations and chants, especially the chants directed at the Prime Minister and his dream team.”
Against those words she wrote: “I think that the demonstrations in favor of bringing the elections forward will promote the return of the abductees, that the public outrage will not allow the members of the Knesset who chose to go on vacation in the middle of a war, while captives are being murdered in Gaza, to rest in peace. I think that the abductees should be at the forefront of the minds of the elected officials and at the forefront of our minds – The citizens. They will not be if the families of the abductees and their relatives do not cry out, do not harass and do not present their pictures, their being – they are not with us, their suffering, the time that has passed, for six months, anywhere, at any time, throughout the country and especially in front of the symbols of the government I will be with you tonight in Kaplan as well.”
