Hi again!
This past shabbat we heard a lot of airplane traffic overhead -- something we are not used to on any day, and especially not on shabbat. I thought it sounded like trucks rumbling along, but Esther said no, it's airplanes. After shabbat we find out that Israel had finally responded to the 13,000 rockets rained from Gaza over the past three years, with the beginning salvo of an attack against Hamasistan.
- Instructions from the Home Front office for southern communities
- UN urges Israel to desist. So does the Vatican
- We can sleep better knowing Venezuela and Iran disapprove of our actions.
- Be glad you're not in Iceland
- Savagery in Mumbai
- We are stupidly compassionate
- Official gov't statistics on Grad/Kassam/Mortar hits
- In odd news: a suicide bomber in Mosul blew himself up in the middle of an anti-Israel rally.
- In the meantime, Hamas bars the injured from receiving treatment in Egypt
Until next week,
Shabbat shalom!
