Video: Rav Chaim Kanievsky cries about current war in Eretz Yisrael

Rav Chaim kanievsky is seen crying and shedding tears for acheinu bnei yisrael as he listens to divrei hisoirerus at a bar mitzvah regarding the war in Gaza. The speaker was stressing that it is up to us to change the outlook of the war by our actions. He said over the famous story of Rav Chaim Shmulevitz in the bomb shelter during the six day war in Israel. During the Six-Day War, Hagaon Harav Chaim Shmulevitz, zt”l, and his talmidim shared a bunker in Yerushalayim with other residents, including a woman whose husband had abandoned her years earlier, leaving her an agunah.
During the enemy bombardment, the agunah cried out: “Ribbono shel Olam, I forgive my husband. I forgive the great humiliation he caused me, and the great pain that I suffered all these years, and You, Av Harachaman, forgive us as well…”
Harav Shmulevitz later said that it was these words of the agunah, more than all the passionate tefillos and recitals of Shema Yisrael and Hashem Hu HaElokim of the talmidei hayeshivah, that proved to be the merit that saved their lives.
