with rifles with the machine guns just shooting and killing everybody and then I said okay I'm not going to run with the crowd but I need to see from where they are coming to me so I keep staying on the on the party area until the hour 813 something like that and then we heard uh fire shots behind us from the emergency exit from there the all the terrorists ENT into the party and I remember I start the motor and start to drive and I saw like in the mirror people falling down and and from that point I'm just driving between people people running people screaming I horn in the in the car trying to find my way out and then I find a small hole in the F I'm trying to reach it and then one of my friends from North no he didn't come with me but I know him from the parties and it just marked me with the hand so I shout to him go inside the car he came inside the car and I start to drive to the where it was the traffic jammed and I saw the big traffic jammed and I saw a group of terrorists around between 50 to 100 terrorist just entering into the party with guns with everything so I make a a big U-turn go to the parking lot again and over there um we recogn uh we recognize Alex Alex luano and we pick him up on the car he also friend of my mine and my ex and Gad from Wason and he came with us on the car and Alex started to navigate us he told me like I know the place I will navigate you I said do what you need to do I'm just driving right now a lot of people knocking on my my windows begging for me please help me take with me with you and I don't have any place inside my car all the equipment of Booth all the people I took with me and I told them like holding the roof something until we get a quiet place because they're shooting behind us and I remember two guys just holding the Cho roof uh was a bench behind do hold it until we get another place and then that just jump from the car and run away and we keep driving bless you and until Alex recognized antennas of something he told me go to the antennas so I drove to theas and I we when we find uh a army car bulletproof um it was start on but no Soldier on so I stopped my car and I decided to jump out and find something inside that car over there I found a a rifle M16 it was jammed I took it with me I took few more bullets it was on the bench of the driver and also a box with something for a night vision I took everything with me run back to the car bring it to gilad and my colleague also fun fun fact story it was my commander for a few months in the Army so we have a special relationship so I trust him he maybe he will know what to do with that when I'm doing driving and behind I it was few um squats of terrorist Hamas and we succeed to uh arrive a quiet place behind Barry antenna or some Tower a tower water water or something like that so we stopped the car I shut shut down the engine to hear from where or what coming to us and Alex go out to speak with his wife um and bad going down to take a look and 20 seconds 30 seconds after that we hear like the screaming in Arabic allahar allahar so I start the engine and drive away and I saw in in the mirror side mirror I saw o and Alex running to the bushes and I look in the car and over there I understanding everyone I took a responsibility and I brought them to the party that with me in the car so I don't go back back or nobody even I love them or I care about them there there was their decisions to go out that moment when they are told by don't go out and you know the risk when you go out from the car I don't have any control on nobody life and from that moment we keep driving uh around the fields behind the berry and over there we stop in some quiet place again inside the the bushes with the car and I remember they trying to my ex trying to reach a Alex but Alex answer her quietly and we have your motorcycl that looking for us I cannot talk to you and he hang up the phone and after that she trying to call the police the the police answer her and she put it on speaker now I hear the all the instructions and they I give us the police officer and all the time he told us go and hide go and hide but I'm in an open field I don't go to hide nowhere because over there they are going to catch me I don't care about what you're thinking I'm seeing what what in front of my eyes so we keep driving around until I hear the screaming s drive and I just pushed the gas and I saw in the mirror uh one motorcycle after me and I said seek to escape for him behind ksb and we're entering right now to our main road behind ksb and I stopped the car and then just passed me two cars five motorcycles with a h Master wrist I take the other side of them and start driving to uh to the aim of Gaza border and I saw a crossroad and in front of me three a master wrist with the AK and a turn left so I uh slowly down a little bit the car and 5 MERS from the terrorist the first uh motorcycle terrorist I just look at him and he look at me so I take my head up and he take his head up like we together because I have the necklace of the prey on my uh on my mirror this is like a small trick and when you park in your car you don't want to steal steal your the car in Israel so so you put something like that a necklace of the what the necklace of the prey of the the Muslims okay wow yeah you put that and and you think he saw that the I think he saw that maybe it was the bandana it was tight to my head I don't know what is that can be a lot of reasons but yeah I think it's that and also my Jeep is look like like old one I told you I have a 12 years so so he didn't think you were Jewish for first and then I took the left and he saw the head of my ex is sitting next to the driver and then the next yelling on the air and then he start shooting at us like crazy and you want to translate what that means this say this is a Jew kill the Jew kill the Jew like the Nazis said in German exactly like in Arabic and the first motor motorcycle came from the right sucis to put one bullet inside my inside my car and that bullet find the head of gilad and gilad didn't die in in that moment he just yelled to me that shot me in the head and I told him don't worry we're going out here from here and then the motorcycle trying to reach to the uh to the front and to take more shoots and that moment I hit him with the right side of the car and take him off and then another motorcycle trying to come from the left and I take him off also with the with the back part of my car and I start to just SLI with my car right and left right and left and to take all the powder up to make um some fog you know and I sued to escape from them and from there SM well and from there we go to the Road 32 three uh 232 and I remember the police officers is on the speaker still on the speaker you hear everything all the shots all the screaming all the SCH is running in the car all the time I think is a lead line for a lot of people in that day and after we came to the main road and we saw all the bench cars all the baring cars bodies on the floor all the equipment of people just ping around and I remember he told me like go to ber and keep safe over there because we have forces about that when you came in from the when you come in on the road to the north you can see the entrance of Barry from your left and I didn't see over there no forces no chalak no know the red light and or orange light or blue white nothing so I keep not to not to listen to him and also I have a wounded way in the head he my friend I need to take him to the hospital so I just keeping on on the main road until alumim and the next and the next Crossroad the next kibuts and over there they're waiting for me another Squad of Hamas with RPG 250 for me meters for me 300 M they just shooting the RPG I saw the missile starting to fly against me so I cut all my wheel to the left and my car just flying to the side road and I succeeded to control the car and still going to to the m k Berry and I saw the terrist guy just dropped the RPG and running with the AK trying to shoot me so I decided to push the emergency break and now again all the powerder and this is hand of God just push all the dust in front of the car and give me a few seconds to do a and go to very because I'm locked like mous in the corner you know so I went to the gate of very and over there I saw nobody only a car with some guy half body outside with his head with a lot of blood and I saw holes of bullets inside the glass of the security guard is supposed to stand over there and few budes from Far So I everything I said right now it sound like I was here like five minutes and try to analyze the all the area but everything is by seconds you have to understand it seconds and sometimes when it's hours it feel like seconds you know the time don't get in give getting a matter over there and I just doing reverse and next to brry from the right you have a a a place on a hill and that Hill watching around all the main road and entering to ber so we went over there and I remember Le just go out from the car trying to look for doors until she screaming to here and we found she find she found a small bathroom and we hide over there for few hours but in that few hours a lot of happened all 20 minutes after we came inside the bathroom that the main door is without a lock I shouldn't hold it for hours straight and up to people outside think nobody is inside and it's locked and Gad is wound in the head and also I don't know what happened with my friends I don't know what happened with my B I cannot reach my family because I hold in the door and I cannot be in the phone like everybody that talking with the families and it's didn't pass me in the in the head in the same time because everything is just you need to work work work go out and then do what you need to do but right now you have to work about the situation and how I go going to go get go out from there so after 20 minutes a squad of 16 or 20 tourist Hamas coming to that area starting to shoot RPGs around and I saw a few parts from everything from a small hole like that uh inside the the door and only the other sense working it's like hear hearing and smelling and the other senses uh they are cancelled so I remember it was a lot of noise I remember um Shadows passing on the door because the door it was plastic and with a window is is a little bit uh um I know milky I don't know how to say it and after one hour two hours they left from there and then I start to hear Hebrew voices but I didn't was sure because also there are costumes and it was a small dist a small distance it was like one m and a half 2 m distance between me and gilad then a ex sitting inside a shower and I was holding the door inside the bathroom H it was a work shower something like that and we just speak by lipsing like like that without the voice without a breathe and you cannot cough you cannot snooze because if you make a sound they'll F you they'll kill you or the worst so I remember she told me like um my ex told me like I'm reaching your friend at home I'm talking with him give him information I send him the location everything by LIF Thing by half words and don't go out until they say the our names and I hear the I hear the soldier Two Soldiers speaking with another civilian guy I don't know who he is I don't know who is them and I just decided to go out I don't care about the names I just take chance about the situation so when I can when I want to go out she told me like don't go out until I said that names and they I said now it's my turn I'm going out and when I go out I just raised my hand said like juice juice juice I have a broken weapon weapon on my in in my car I need your help be magazine we try we're trying to uh fix it and then the civilian came to me and and tell me and told me can to help me with this wounded guy what wounded guy he brought from Road 232 to a wounded guy to that area we hide and I help him with the wounded guy over there until four police officers coming with a with a car and at the first we we thought they are like the you know terrorist are costumes so mad and they run again to the bathroom and we let the soldiers to do the interrogate until they clarify them and after that I go out spoke with the police officers search in around looking for stuff that are going to help me in that journey and after 40 minutes around 30 minutes 40 minutes in that area um the police officers told me like the next uh Crossroad alumim there are succees to uh control it uh from the terrorist and I told them you sure and that shot me RPG and told me yes so I took the one guy I don't know who it is I try to reach his family but without success I just have a few details about him like what he were in the same day or how he look like and Le and gilad just go inside the car when we were over there I live there by the the guy was wounded with 15 between 15 to 20 bullet holes all over his body remember I just R him off with some bandages I have in the car and me and two sold two soldiers was just pick it out inside and I drove to alumim and in alumim they evacuated the wound and that told me don't go with the car now the chopper is in the in the air that can take you down from the air so I stay over there for more 3 hours and over there your friends G where's the one gilad yeah and the other wounded guy they I evacuated him with a with ambulance from there so me and my ex stay over there and for more 3 hours something like that a lot of things happen over there I found a dead body on the floor of soldier and I want to cover him and people tell me the soldiers that was over there that told us don't touch it because maybe he's bbar maybe he's a terrorist we don't know anything we waiting to another Soldier to De clarify him and then and then I remember the the sound of the the choppers shooting the cars and it was like 50 m from us so we just laying down and I cover with my body um Le and all the soldiers around us with the with the guns like aimed not to know from where and what and my eyes is locked on the dead body and I said to myself why you look at me like that and I feel in the energy like it's one of us you know it's not a terrorist and I don't care if it moving trap I have to cover that body I have to give an honor so I took some I don't know how to call it in English but some piece of uh um the material we see fa fabric fabber yeah we took a Feb from a a smash car me and another officer we covered the body I closed his eyes and said six words and I keep search turn around we found I found the phone of the terrorist I found the book I found the knife I found few stuff so I brought everything to uh the police officers and I walk around uh the bush to hide the behind the concrete it was inside and when I were reach over there I saw something shiny on floor and so I took it up and I found a ring and on a ring is a stamp of and from that moment I know I'm going home I'm not going to die today it's not my day yet and I wish I had that ring with me but I'm keep it safe in a place I don't know don't want to L lost it so after one hour um he came the the guy is supposed to clarify everything and he clarified another uh police uh car and they escort us to the next Crossroad and from there I just drove by 130 140 I don't care about the cameras I don't care about officers I just drive home fast I brought the my ex to a family I go to took my dogs and after that I went to my family and then then I trying to get in on the flexures and trying to find way to be to be not more stronger because I feel in that day all of us die in some part of us but it's like the Phoenix when you die he need to rise up again from the ash so since then I understand I'm like the Phoenix I need to rise up up it starting it's very hard in the start you know how to fly again or and how to open the wings this the most difficult part of the growing so right now we are here trying to open the wings and fly high wow it's a rebirth you know there's no literal translation for the word sha some people say here listen but shama is just an experience that doesn't have a word because it's just like you said you feel it it's energy yeah God is energy God is you cannot see it you cannot touch it you only can feel it inside you and each of us is it's creation of God part of him so each of us can find the godness inside him it's not matter if you keeping Shabbat or you put it in I don't know it's about speak with him here inside like only little like that you can speak with him and see him like proud and did you find out who this this um was the S Soldier or but did you find out who this person was it was uh it was a soldier he was vacation I think I don't know why I had this feeling it was the soldier uh no he were like a soldier clothes but I don't know if it was in a service or not in a service but that Soldier I can found his family after that and I spoke with him and his name I know also his name is no lki and I found out it's funny it's funny story but I found out is his father is a rabbi in uh in Jerusalem and I spoke with his family I don't know why I need to cover that body I don't know why I need to give him the lasting dignity or last respect so but I do it because I believe everything is curate and if everything is curious so everything is going to be okay someday even you don't feel it right now cured your healing C cured you said yes yeah everything is going to be okay someday not right now right now I feel everything I give it a place all my emotions but everything is cuot and everything is right so he's not going to be okay in the end I believe that with the coming of mssiah well all the loved ones that even before when we in this world as what you're doing right now you're bringing light and I just all three of you had have this so much strength in making these decisions in a very chaotic moment like every one of you shared something like you weren't you you heard all this screaming around you but you were very focused in a very scary chaotic moment what gives you hope what is very difficult question because before 7 October I believed in people I work with people and you don't know my history but 29 and 10 months and 11 months before the 7 October I was traveling a lot around the world I met a lot of coaches speak a lot of languages eat and taste a lot of uh creation of God you know but even it's not Jewish is still creation of God it's spirit it's on the planet so I believed in people I want to work with them to heal them to give them a my perspective and after 7 October I felt like the humanity don't have any play place to exist I saw the the most evil things is can be on the land we stand you know and with did time when I questioning myself every day when I talking with with a d you know I speak with him every day about how I can bring it again I can be trust again about on people and slowly slowly he show me the the goodness of people and he showed me the way to give another people the remind first of all we are human before our religion before our color before our language first of all we are human and nobody wants something like that going to happen to him or his his family so also that journey is part of the the things that that give me hope because I have the ability to speak with them and to show them what happened to me and how I'm dealing with that and the human humanality uh I want to observe and show again to the world you know how do you find healing and you you massage therapist so you were in that space of healing helping other people heal how do you heal myself dayto day yeah um like a lot of my friends we went first to uh centers of uh therapy for people of Nova but with the time I understand a lot of bad energy in the same place can drag you down uh you have to find uh the balance inside so I start I start to think like what is what what can help me and I understand like is not taking answer for someone else what is going to help to me is to find the tools to deal with the situation every day because every day some person on the street just hear you from NOA and he can ask you like difficult question and I don't know you why should answer you about that question but sometimes you going to shout him maybe curse him maybe push him or act like I don't know disgusting so I believe I need all the time collect the tools to know how to react the situation in is coming every day inside my life this is the way for me to get him better every day and to being stronger what what would you say is one of the top tools for you that so far like something that has helped you on one of the days to understand never what happen to you is only for your own good even is the worst thing happened to you in that day is like a like the R lman said all the day everything is created in that in that room in that outside is create only for your world and each one of us is another world so you see that differently I see it differently but even that conversation is for you today to understand from that something and when I'm speaking about it here in that room it's for me for some reason inside my world so everything happened is for my own good yeah 100% it's like there it's not happening to you it's happening for you every day every day yeah every moment that's a very important message thank you thank you for sharing this thank you you also have very strong intuition because people told you not to do something and you like and in that moment you you decide to do something else I I believe I believe because of that we're talking about the connection to God and their energy I believe they're making a research about answering you know and they are saying the 0.6 first seconds there the answer is jumping to your head is the first is the right in correct answer to your life the first one just the first the the first zero .6 seconds right and everything after that is just ch trying to think like how it's going to affect about my mother how it's going to my sisters my brothers not to me not to my world to other worlds right it's like Shai you were saying that um you know you're not overthinking now you're just do you just do um there was a I I I recently just met a woman who told me that she lost her son on a plane he suddenly passed away he had oldest son and he had three three young children and it was just coming up his first yard site and she told me that for a week I guess that's the week of su sh she was in bed and she couldn't get out it was very hard for her and then it was similar to what you're sharing here she just said she can't she's only got a short time to live in this world and she's going to pick herself up and do and do good in the world because she's just got a short time to live and she doesn't like how she feels the other way and she saw from her son passing away how short life is and that she just wants to live it I just want to say her name is Lisa elephant she's an amazing woman that does um matchmaking it's called thank you very much for the sharing I don't believe about it's about a short time to live you don't know when you're going to go back inside the ground you know but you know it's going to happen someday it can be in more than 90 years it can be tomorrow it can be like in one month because of that you don't want to lose the the situation and the joy and the happiness you brought for others not just to yourself
