Boxcar said:Neo, apparently I or somebody else signed up as ZFBoxcar already. I entered my email on the "forget password" thing and it didn't send me my password. If ZFBoxcar doesn't belong to anybody else (and I don't think it does, nobody has ever posted with it), could you please delete that account and change my name to that on this account (I like to be consistent across the internet lol)?

Arabs launched the assault on this very day for a reason.

You're welcome.Boxcar said:Thank you Neo
Thanks Ira, I couldn't have given a better explaination of the event.Yom Kippur is the second (and more somber) of the two Jewish High Holidays. Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year, which is a pretty happy holiday. Yom Kippur comes 10 days later. In those 10 days you are supposed to apologize and make ammends to all those you have wronged, and then apologize to God. A saying used is that "on Rosh Hashanah it is written, on Yom Kippur it is sealed," basically meaning that God has decided what kind of person you are on Rosh Hashanah based on your conduct throughout the year, but you have 10 days to make ammends before God decides conclusively on you (obviously if you aren't gonna die in the next year you get to try again lol). Yom Kippur is a more serious holiday because through prayer, Jews are asking God to temper his judgement and forgive and accept repentence for sins. As a sign of repentence, Jews fast for the 25 hours of Yom Kippur, do not use electricity (ideally) and spend most of the day in synagogue. The bolded part is obviously the most critical from a military perspective. The IDF was pretty much shut down, its soldiers weren't eating, no radios (except for the most essential services) were being used and a lot of soldiers were in synagogues praying.

I spent three years of intensive study of Judaism, Christianity and the Islam.
Its very interesting how the historical events are interpretted form different angles.
The Judaism is very intriguing.
