Is it possible to forgive in the wake of an event such as Hamas' murderous attack of October 2023? Magen Inon's parents, believers in peace, were killed in their home that day .

Magen Inon has inherited his parents' belief that peace in Israel and the Palestinian territories cannot be brought about by revenge and violence. He has been sorely tested in this belief since his parents, who had many friends and work colleagues in the Palestinian and Bedouin communities, were brutally murdered in their home on October 23rd 2023.

What does it mean to forgive when you must tell your children that they will never see their beloved grandparents again? Magen explains what he and his brothers and sisters went through as a family to wrench something like forgiveness from the appalling tragedy that engulfed them .
