Parents of hostage still fighting to bring their son home from Gaza
Newsy
Sunday will mark six months since Israelis were snatched away by armed Hamas terrorists and taken as hostages and human shields.
“Right now I’m speaking to you. It’s like there’s a branding iron on my back,” Rachel Goldberg told Scripps News.
It’s been nearly six months since she and her husband, Jon Polin, became some of the most prominent voices of hostage families.
It’s been six months since their son Hersh Goldberg-Polin was brutally kidnapped from the Nova Music Festival in Israel.
They are not counting in months. They are counting in days, displayed across their chests. They are counting in the moments and in the the breaths they’ve taken since their 23-year-old son was stolen as the sun rose.
“We put on these costumes to look like people so that we can go out in the world and try to save our son,” Goldberg said.
