Why was this Tisha B’av different from all other Tisha B’avs?
On all other Tisha B’avs, we read about how once there was a Jewish homeland in the land of Israel, and that homeland was destroyed not by external enemies, but by internal Jewish hatred, what the Talmud calls sinat chinam, hatred of Jew for Jew.
In previous years, we got to read about it. We had a luxury. It was history.
What’s different this year is that we are not reading about it. We are living it. It is not history. It is our reality.
