American Roshei yeshiva on the murders of the three kedoshim H''YD

The American Roshei Yeshiva were in a meeting in New York on behalf of Chinuch atzmoi schools when the news broke of the 3 murdered yeshiva bochurim. The Roshei Yeshiva in attendance burst out crying upon hearing the terrible news.
Rav Shmuel Kamenetzky

Rav Shmuel kamenetzky Rosh yeshiva of philadelphia said that hashem gives us yesurim in order for us to better ourselves and to forgive our sins. Klal yisrael united and joined together all across the world and we were zoche to be bound together asking mercy from hashem. Also in attendance was the Novominsker rebbe, Rav Yisrael Belsky, Rav Aaron Feldman, Rav Yitzchock Sorotzkin, Rav Shlomo  Halioua from Yeshiva Chaim Berlin, Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zwiebel

Rav Chaim Mintz mashgiach of Yeshiva of Staten Island (audio here) noted how this happened in the beginning of Tamuz  the days of bein hametzorim when churban started by klal yisrael, Hashem
Rav Chaim Mintz
shocks us  he sometimes and wants to wake us up to realize what we are here in the world for. We are the am hanivchar and sometimes we need strong medicine to get us to realize what we have to do. As the Pasuk states that Hashem gives us pain and suffering like a father sometimes gives his child but this only comes from ahava and love. We must concentrate not on how to take nekama on the arabsת thats for hashemas the pasuk says kayl nekamos hashem we should focus on what we have to do to better 
ourselves. The three Boys had special very high neshamos they brought klal yisrael together that all yidden should daven for one cause with such kavannah such a feeling they are special neshamos. hashem takes thr greates to make a kiddush hashem. Aaron hakohen we must realize any tragedy is for the good we all know hashem wants to bring us to a higher madreiga and reallize that hashem put us in this world for the ultimate pleasure in olam habba. We should take this tragedy in the right way and do what we can to lift ourselves up it should be a zechus for these young yeshiva bochurim that were zoche with mesiras nefesh to die al kiddush hashem. Lets make it into something that will be worthwhile for their mesiras nefesh that klal yisrael should do something more than before. The mishpachos that are going through this should be zoche to have simchas and klal yisrael should have a nechama. we should be zoche to  כל המתאבל על ירושלים זוכה ורואה בשמחתה
