Somewhat off topic: Some of you may recall an article here on YWN last week exploring the incredible efforts being made to transport those who were niftar and wanted to buried in EY. The efforts spanned the local funeral homes, chevrah kadishahs, Hatzalah, El Al, airport authorities and government agencies their counterparts in EY. In the Sunday NYT, there was an article on roughly the same subject dealing with Muslims in Europe seeking to have the niftarim returned home and how their respective families had refused to allow for transport and burial. Even obtaining a proper Muslim burial in France had become difficult.
The contrast was not surprising but inspiring regarding the ability of yidden to overcome even in the most difficult circumstances.
