In this shmooze for the 3 weeks & the 9 days based on the stories of the Chafetz Chayim as told by HaRav Galinsky za"l, we learn about the crying out of Moshe Rabenu as the paradigm of crying over the churban. We must not remain silent, as the silence of the Chachamim at the episode of Bar Kamtza led to the destruction of the Mikdash. The Brisker Rav on the silence of Iyov & his punishment. The centrality of praying for the the redemption, a redemption like that of GeUlas Mitzrayim, which will come even when the People are unworthy. Finally, the Jewish heart as a Mikdash Me'at, if only we will feel as a Jew must. The Mesirus Nefesh of the Jew who stands strong in the face of adverse conditions and attitudes. This will bring the GeUlah בב"א
