"Too often, it is only the threat of an aggressor that binds Jews together. In the absence of an external threat, petty factionalism separates us from one another. Nothing is more dear to
G-d as to see His children united. We can merit the most bountiful Divine blessing if only we cling together. It is time that we resolve whatever differences among us that set us apart from one another." Rabbi Avraham Twerski
