Families of Meron victims demand national commission of inquiry

In a letter to the prime minister, families warn Haredi politicians, some of whom are accused of culpability in the stampede that killed 45 people, would attempt to limit the scope of the probe; say only an independent probe can uncover the truth ....

This harsh commentary regarding the tragic Meron fiasco is now ready for posting, now that most if not all of the bereaved families have gotten up from sitting shiva. The embargo has been self-imposed as a matter of common courtesy; there will be plenty of opportunity for criticism and critique of the multifaceted failings behind the misadventure, and there is a surfeit of blame to go around for what many, myself included, view as the criminal negligence involved. ....

Lag BaOmer pilgrimage brings Orthodox Jews closer to eternity – I experienced this spiritual bonding in years before the tragedy

The annual Lag BaOmer pilgrimage to Mount Meron in Israel attracts as many as half a million visitors every year. Because of COVID-19, this year’s event was less crowded, but even so, over 100,000 people were packed into a space with a capacity for perhaps 15,000.
