Faces of October 7th

Do you know about the StandWithUs Israel Education Center?

You can find the Center in the heart of Jerusalem, less than a mile from Beit Knesset Hanassi and just across the street from the King David Hotel. This establishment now annually hosts tens of thousands of visitors who take part in its educational programs.

According to the Center’s website it welcomes visitors from all over the world, offering them our educational materials as well as the opportunity to learn more about Israel so that they can teach their communities when they return home. The Center adds that visitors will discover diverse content about the key issues related to Israel, from expert written resources to a wide spectrum of sessions, tours and workshops. All of this adds up to a platform for pro-Israel activism and effective tools to counter misinformation about Israel.

Beit Knesset Hanassi member Heshy Engelsberg visited the Center yesterday and saw for himself the Faces of October 7th exhibition and reflection space. If you want to get a feel for it, Heshy has produced a stunning 15-minute video that encapsulates the events of that tragic date and its dramatic, terrifying impact on ordinary human beings.

You can view Heshy’s video on YouTube here.
