Brian Lurie said following Biden's speech, he was surprised at the level of support the United States is waging.
"What more could one ask for? Funding, public support, U.S. military involvement, I'm blown away," Avi's father said. "He reminded us what took place in Israel was not about statehood, it was about evil and those of us who do nothing about it are complicit to it."
"I am feeling positive about the level of support, I don't think we expected so much in the beginning, and to see it now is heartening," added Debbie Lurie. Biden will ask Congress for an aid package that will also call for more assistance for Ukraine and for humanitarian aid for Palestinian civilians in Gaza.
Debbie Lurie agreed that innocent civilians needed help, and she hoped the aid could go directly to them and wouldn't end up in Hamas' hands. The Luries also said Avi's two brothers raised $15,000 in supplies for Avi's fellow soldiers and were able to send new equipment over in just a few days.
