Channel 14 news anchor Oded Harush honestly admitted that he did not believe all the hostages would return home, even after fighting for their return for hundreds of days. Harush made these remarks as part of the documentary "The Journey of Agam and Ber," which aired last night (Wednesday). In the film, Harush met with released hostages Agam Berger and Ber Kupershstein and the mothers who waited for them for long months. Harush confessed: "Everyone in terrible times must admit their sins, and I am admitting my sin here. I didn't believe all the hostages would be home. I admit it. I fought for this for hundreds of days, was wounded, returned – but I truly didn't believe." According to him, unlike the released hostages who believed with all their might that they would return, he was "small in faith." Harush wished: "May we take this lesson, grow from it, and increase unconditional love." The film also documented a moving moment when Agam and Ber returned with their families to the grave of Rabbi Eliezer Papo, where their mothers had prayed for their return. In the place where the mothers cried out in uncertainty, the returnees recited the Thanksgiving blessing.
