Ben Ari’s father: A father burying his son is the hardest thing
Ido Ben Ari’s father eulogizes him at his funeral, underway now in Yavneh.
“My beloved and precious son, in normal places it isn’t customary for fathers to bury their children, but in this case things are turned around, a father is burying his son, and there’s nothing harder than that,” he says.
“Today it’s my son, and my pain is too great to bear. My life will not be the same.”
He adds: “We don’t want revenge. We want a solution.”
