As we approach the High Holidays and the first anniversary of October 7, the worst catastrophe in the history of modern Israel, we barely have time to look back, internalize the scale of the disaster, and mourn the dead. A year later, Hamas is militarily a shadow of the 24-battalion terrorist-army Israel had allowed it to become, but it remains a guerrilla threat, its leader Yahya Sinwar is still believed to be pulling its strings from his Gaza underworld, and it is still holding 101 hostages -- dozens of whom are dead and the rest of whom are in daily life-threatening peril. But Israel, though devastated by October 7 and divided about how best to restore security and save the hostages, is fighting back.
