It\u2019s never fast enough, but they have to do it in a careful way to make sure that they don\u2019t hurt the site in the sense that they\u2019re not hurting other people that are there in the rubble.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Groisman said that it was an \u201cincredible\u201d sight to see Israeli forces on the ground assisting in recovery efforts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can tell you personally that I spoke a lot to the family members; I spent most of my time with the family members, and those from the Jewish community were begging for the Israelis to come in,\u201d Groisman said. \u201cI was able to organize hotel rooms for the search and rescue team; it was donated by a local hotel here, and when they showed up we told them that we had hotel rooms for them actually on the beach so they can rest and they rejected the hotel rooms. They want to stay in the tents on the site with the rest of the team; they\u2019re here to work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope that at some point they get a moment to rest, but they say that they\u2019ll rest when they get home,\u201d Groisman concluded. \u201cWe just had at the shul in Bal Harbour here with Rabbi Lipsker, we had a big community service to pray for the victims and to support the rescue workers. And I can tell you that people not just from all parts of the Jewish religion but from other religions came to join us. This is a very tight-knit community and together we\u2019re doing what we can to pray, to hope to bring a big, big [miracle] for the families.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
