How Nietzsche and God helped Israeli hostages survive in the tunnels of Gaza
More than a century ago, Friedrich Nietzsche famously declared that 'God is dead.' But in the fetid, pitch-dark tunnels beneath Gaza—where air was scarce, food scarce still, and the future nearly absent—God and Nietzsche coexisted. For dozens of Israeli hostages taken during Hamas's brutal October 7, 2023, attack, survival meant something more than physical endurance. Inside those underground cells, belief returned with unexpected force—sometimes in the form of sacred verses from the Book of Psalms, other times through the secular wisdom of Nietzsche's existential despair. What united them was the same core truth: the need for meaning, for something to hold onto when everything else—light, freedom, identity—was stripped away. Omer Shem Tov 's Psalm 20 and Nietzsche's 'Why' Omer Shem Tov, 20 at the time of his abduction, had been a secular Israeli, waiting tables and planning a post-army trip to South America. He was seized at the Nova music festival, along with friends, and quickly spirited into the Gaza tunnel network—lowered underground in a plastic tub. Days into his captivity, without access to clocks or sunlight, Shem Tov began to pray. He clung to Psalm 20—'May the Lord answer you on a day of distress'—a passage that, by eerie coincidence, his mother was reciting back home in Herzliya, unaware her son had adopted the same verse as his mantra. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Good News: You May Be Richer Than You Think Undo For him, faith didn't emerge as sudden revelation, but as necessity—a response to isolation, uncertainty, and fear. He began blessing his food, making promises to God, and vowed to don tefillin in prayer if he ever returned home. But if God gave him ritual, Nietzsche offered something else: a reason to endure. A saying frequently repeated among hostages was drawn from the German philosopher, popularised by Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl: 'He who has a why can bear with any how.' It had reportedly been spoken by Hersh Goldberg-Polin, an Israeli-American hostage, before he was executed by his captors. The phrase reverberated through the tunnels like scripture. One hostage later had it tattooed on his arm. The Rediscovery of Faith in Captivity Shem Tov wasn't alone in finding God in Gaza. Other hostages, like Eli Sharabi—who survived 491 days in captivity only to learn that his wife and two daughters had been killed—described saying the Shema Yisrael prayer each night and attempting to recite the kiddush over water when wine wasn't available. Ritual became resistance. For many, Jewish observance wasn't imposed by identity politics or external pressure—it was personal, a lifeline in the most dehumanising conditions imaginable. One hostage described saving a bottle of grape-flavoured drink for the Sabbath prayer. Others placed their hands on their heads in lieu of skullcaps. To the captors, it may have seemed like theatre. To the hostages, it was meaning. Nietzsche Underground And yet, alongside God, Nietzsche endured. Stripped of everything familiar, hostages turned to a philosopher who had buried God in the pages of The Gay Science but also taught generations that suffering could be endured if one had a reason. In the absence of hope, they made purpose. In the absence of time, they made ritual. Even Shem Tov's captors unwittingly played a role. After an Israeli military unit passed above ground, the gunmen handed Shem Tov reading material they had recovered—suspecting hidden codes. Among the texts: religious literature, and a printed card of Psalm 20. No names, no signatures. Just the verse. It mirrored the exact same card that had been handed to his mother months earlier by a hostage support group. The Fragility of Life, the Tenacity of Faith At one point, Shem Tov spent 50 days in a dark, suffocating tunnel cell. He was given a biscuit a day, a few drops of brackish water, and suffered asthma attacks that went nearly untreated. In desperation, he begged God to move him—anywhere else. Within minutes, his captors relocated him to a better chamber. Whether miracle or coincidence, he saw it as divine intervention. From there, he survived through quiet cooperation—cleaning, cooking, helping clear debris after tunnel collapses. He maintained the Sabbath. He saved a bottle of drink for a moment of blessing. He kept faith alive in a place designed to crush it. Now home, he prays daily with tefillin, just as he promised. He has toured Jewish communities in the US, speaking not only of suffering but of resilience. His mother, too, now observes the Sabbath. Theirs is not a tale of religious conversion, but of rediscovery—of how stripped of society's noise, ancient traditions and modern philosophy became tools of survival.

‘Parents Need Support, Not Money And Gifts': Banker's Advice To NRIs
Last Updated: A banker and author living in Singapore recently asked NRIs to find someone to take care of their ageing parents if they live alone. Many Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) live abroad while their parents stay alone in India. They work hard to give their children a good life in a new country but leave their elderly parents without much help. A banker and author living in Singapore recently spoke about this problem. He asked NRIs to find someone to take care of their parents if they live alone. He also shared that it's important to visit parents at least once every two years. According to the author, parents over 75 years old start facing many health problems and those above 80 may need full support for daily tasks. Taking to X (Formerly Twitter), the banker wrote, 'Stop at some logical point and get back here to India. If not, arrange a caretaker for your parents who live alone in India. In case they don't agree, accommodate them in an elder care facility. Visit them atleast once in two years. When your parents turn 75 they begin to deteriorate. 80+ aged parents are so frail that they can't do anything on their own. I interact with many such NRI parents daily and am writing from what I see." 'There is enough material for three full-fledged novels. You may be arranging Periyava Mandalis or Brahmotsavams in the USA, but the real gods that brought you to this world are languishing. Your dollars are less worthy than the adult diapers that your parents struggle to wear by themselves.," he added. A note to NRIs, esp at some logical point and get back here to not, arrange a caretaker for your parents who live alone in India. In case they don't agree, accommodate them in an elder care facility. Visit them atleast once in two years. When your…— Amaruvi Devanathan (@amaruvi) June 8, 2025 '30 years of experience. Every attempt to arrange a caretaker was successfully sabotaged by my parents. Tried to live in, live out, cook, informal. They all quit. Past hires don't even talk to me anymore. Left with the maid, part-time driver, on-demand nurse and WFR plan is always active. A care home can never match the lifestyle, social circle and freedom they enjoy now," a comment read. An individual stated, 'Thanks, but my parents are happier with their domestic help/drivers and the business they do even in their 70s. Different families, different circumstances. Hope the parents who miss their grandkids get to see them soon." One more added, 'I have known some NRIs who left in the '70s or '80s and raised their children in the West and now their children live separately. They desperately look for relatives who can come and stay with them, have a daily wage job and help them regularly." In a past interview with the Times of India, Dr Ranjive Mahajan, a senior psychiatrist at DMCH, spoke about PICA, which stands for Parents in India, Children Abroad. He said this is a problem seen mostly in NRI families. When children move abroad, their parents who stay behind often feel lonely, sad and unwanted. Earlier, sending children overseas was more common in villages, but now it happens in cities too. Mahajan added that sometimes, parents who were taken abroad by their children come back to India after they're used only to look after grandchildren.

Celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community shouldn't be limited to just the Pride Month: Manvendra Singh Gohil
Manvendra Singh Gohil Recently, prominent LGBTQIA+ rights activist Manvendra Singh Gohil posted a video on Instagram, highlighting how the community continues to face several challenges. While we celebrate Pride Month, Manvendra shares, 'Unfortunately, the LGBTQIA+ community in India continues to face stigma, discrimination and violation of human rights. It has been more than five decades since the LGBTQ+ movement began (in 1969), but this is the sad reality. Even now, many are forced to live in the closet because they fear they would be thrown out of the house otherwise. They also face sexual harassment.' He adds, 'Celebrating the community shouldn't be limited to just Pride Month. I get invited as a speaker by a lot of corporates in June and I tell them that most of their events are just eyewash. Most corporates organise Pride Month events but once June is over, they don't seem to remember us. Unless corporates provide more job opportunities for the community and ensure that there is no discrimination at the workplace, such celebrations are pointless. ' 'There is very little awareness about our rights' Manvendra says one of the biggest challenges is that 'there is very little awareness about our rights.' He elaborates, 'There have been landmark judgments and moments in our fight for equality, like the scrapping of Section 377 (in 2018), the NALSA judgment in 2014 (it recognised a third gender and guaranteed equal rights to the transgender community), and the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act that was passed in 2019. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Düsseldorf: GEERS sucht 700 Testhörer für Hörgeräte ohne Zuzahlung GEERS Undo But the implementation and dissemination still remain a challenge. There is a lot of misinformation among the general public because awareness about the laws or rights of the LGBTQIA+ community is limited to just law schools and law colleges. To cite an example, a lot of people believe that the scrapping of Section 377 means that same-sex marriage has been legalised in India, which isn't the case. We need to spread more awareness.' 'We will continue our fight for justice' While Manvendra is disappointed that same-sex marriages haven't been legalised in India, he says, 'We will continue our fight for justice. The Supreme Court has said that the onus is on our Parliament now and we need to reach out to people at the grassroots and raise awareness about our issues. Even the scrapping of Section 377 took about 20 years, so we should continue our fight and I am sure that we will get justice one day. Even if we don't get to see that day, our next generation will.' He adds, 'Recently, the Madras High Court ruled that LGBTQ+ individuals can form a family, which is encouraging. There have been some positive developments. For instance, same-sex couples can now open a joint bank account and have nominees. So, there is some progress, although it is slower than what we would like.' 'Pride Month events are important to create more allies' Homosexuality is deeply rooted in our heritage, as queerness and same-sex love have existed in Indian culture for centuries. The British imposed colonial laws criminalizing our identities and apart from celebrating our identity, Pride is also a reclamation-who we are and who we will be in future. Pride Month events, which include pride walks, are important because they ensure visibility and help create more allies. 'Our marriage is more successful than a lot of heterosexual couples' Manvendra got married to Duke DeAndre Richardson in 2013 in the US and recently, they co-authored a book about completing a decade of marriage and activism. Looking back at the journey, Manvendra says, 'It has been a fabulous journey. Currently, we are in the US to promote the book and we are also attending a few Pride Month events, where we are being felicitated. I believe our marriage is more successful than a lot of heterosexual couples. ' Talking about their dream project, India's first LGBTQA centre at Hanumanteshwar, he adds, 'We are adding more facilities there and the space is open to allies also.'
