The reason I'm teaching you this local phrase today is deeply meaningful.

When Yamam, Shabak, and IDF forces rescued Noa Argamani from the inhumane hands of her captors in G@za, they reassured her that it was okay and that they were there to bring her home. After enduring eight months in hell, she was in disbelief. Then, one of the rescuers asked her, "Is it okay if I give you a piggyback ride?" as they had to move as quickly as safely as possible.

In Hebrew, the literal translation is "bag of flour," because it's the same way we carry that on our backs.

Now that the video of her rescue has been released, and I am sharing it right here with you, I wanted to teach you this local expression (it is not in the video as it is edited, but if you are following the Israeli news you will see it everywhere).

It’s a beautiful reminder of how in a situation where there is no time for anything, our men have the gentle heart and courtesy of asking: "Is it okay if I give you a piggyback ride?" as we get you out of here.
