Rabbi Yitzhak Amsalem, head of the Torat Hachaim Yeshiva for Youth in Yad Binyamin, spoke with Israel National News about his student, Sergeant Moshe Nissim Frech HY”D of the Netzach Yehuda Battalion, who was killed by an explosive device in Gaza. Frech, he said, was “a quiet, humble, and modest young man—yet full of life within. His four years in the yeshiva left a deep mark on all who had the privilege of knowing him.”
Rabbi Amsalem described a sensitive and special soul: “Moshe HY”D possessed a refined spirit and exceptional character traits. He radiated warmth, care, and genuine concern for every friend. He always noticed who needed a kind word, encouragement, or simply a listening ear—and always responded with generosity and humility.”
His presence was gentle but profound,” the rabbi added. “He never raised his voice, but his presence spoke volumes. The constant smile on his face uplifted those around him. Even in difficult times, he was the one who knew how to strengthen others.”
Rabbi Amsalem concluded, “Moshe was driven by a deep sense of mission, both in his spiritual life and in his military service. His principled stance, combined with his soft heart and simplicity, made him a rare soul—a soldier with the spirit of one who serves Hashem.”
NOTE:
I'm not in favor of our Yeshiva Bochurim entering the IDF but if such a decision is made by any precious Jew, I only hope that if the above occurs that Hashem brings them to a precious place in Shamayim.

With this kind of waging war, all we get are too, too many sacrifices. It is sickening that such holy beautiful souls are taken from us so young. This war should have been over almost two years ago. Forcing the chareidim into the military is just another way of trying to rid the Land of our best, finest and holiest Jews.
Wars are not operations and must be waged with full confidence of achieving immediate victory, thus saving hundreds/thousands of Jewish lives.
The world, including the erev rav within our midst, are only too happy when we
are able to, c'v, mourn over our losses.
We pray that H' takes over very soon through His servant, Moshiach tzdkeinu, who will right all these inane wrongs.
T.J.
