Left in the Reeds




After a little research I see that the so called Jewish Center is the Chabad Lubovitch House almost at the southern tip of the peninsula upon which Mumbai rests.


Having heard of the ruthlessness of the attackers I held out little hope for those hostages that might have been held in the Naiman House. The Rabbi and his wife were among those murdered. The picture of this lovely couple somehow touched my heart. I know they are but among more than a hundred killed in the multi-pronged attack but the story of these religious people made the tragedy small scale enough for me to comprehend emotionally. I simply wept.

Fortunately their son Moshe was saved and he is well named. He was left in the reeds and survived.
