The tunnels of Gaza are a symbol of a deeper war against life itself - opinion

Anyone who sees each day as another block of time to fully devote themselves to the work of annihilation cannot be grouped with those who honor life and seek to preserve it through any means.

Yehuda Meitav, a music content creator, has created a powerful Instagram video that draws a stark contrast between the beautiful landmarks of nations and the tunnels found in Gaza. The tunnels, he argues, are a symbol of a destructive mindset that rejects life's joys and beauty in favor of hatred, death, and violence.

According to Meitav, Gaza's choice to create an underground network of tunnels, used for transporting weapons and holding hostages, represents a rejection of all that life has to offer. This includes the pleasures of good food, meaningful relationships, inspiring faith, art, nature, love, and many other gifts bestowed by God.

He likens these tunnel-builders to heartless and mindless creatures, blinded by hatred to the point where they cannot see the beauty around them. Their actions, he argues, not only devastate Gaza but also threaten to upend life as we know it for everyone.

Meitav draws a clear line between two opposing sides: one that seeks life, light, and the blessings of God, and another that desires death, darkness, and destruction. He believes that ultimately, each individual must confront the reality reflected in Gaza's tunnels: a stark choice between life and death, light and darkness, love and hatred.
