Because they don't care about feelings or humanity . It's all about publicity.


why the need for all the pictures.... terrifying enough just to imagine

I'm asking a question but I don't think anyone is really qualified to answer it.

Why did this happen? What message is Hashem sending me? Why was this celebration of ruchniyus the catalyst to so many young lives getting cut short in such a gruesome manner?

If only there was some clarity.  :'(

Coming the same year as Covid it is especially troubling.

I hate speculating reasons for Hashem's actions, and I dislike when others do it, but I nevertheless wonder if there is more of a correlation here. Could it be that Hashem doesn't want us to forget COVID and move on with our lives without internalizing the message? Is Hashem using the biggest gathering of the year to remind us that it was not His intention for us to kick our shoes off and get "back to normal" after Covid?

Again, this is nothing more that pure speculation, as far be it from me to try to say reasons. I can only wonder and try to internalize a message for myself.
