                                    Memorial Day - The siren




                                                .תי ִר ְב ִע ְּ ב ט ְס ְק ֵט ַ ה ת ֶא םי ִר ְפּ ַ ס ְמ ?םי ִ ׂש ֹ וע ה ָמ









            On the night of Memorial Day a minute-long siren is heard at



            8:00 PM. The siren opens the Memorial Day ceremonies all


            over the country.


            The siren moment is a special moment; everyone stops,


            stands, remembers and thinks – about a soldier they knew,


            about the wars that were in the past, or about the one from


            this summer, about a family friend who was killed in a terror



            attack, and about anyone in whose merit the state was


            established and continues still to exist. This is a special


            moment, because it is a moment where everyone is together


            but everyone is also separate; each person stands with his



            thoughts and feelings, quietly.


            On Memorial Day there is another siren, which is two


            minutes long, at 11 AM, and then the people in Israel leave


            everything they’re doing throughout the day and stand –


            just like you saw in the video.
