Purim is such a happy, joy-filled holiday. I am in Israel, and the country is alight. In Purim, on city streets children run about dressed in costume — all week. Every night is a different party. I brought my costume. The parades, the singing, the dancing — the celebration of life — is the polar opposite of Islam. Darkness and light. Life and death.
Of course, the Jews in Belgium have no choice but to cancel Purim, but what a message. Islam crushes everything is in its wake. After the Muslim invasion, Jews who stay in Europe do so at great peril and risk.
