Thank you for the update. I've been thinking about Yael every day and am glad to know she and her family are ok. The situation seems still pretty grim. I pray for things to get better soon. My thoughts and prayers are with you Yael.
What a horrible time there, and getting worse it seems. Who knows what to do...both sides are intractable, neither take responsibility for the thousands of deaths, both blame the other. Blame is what a country, or person, does when they don't want to accept they have some responsibility...and here, both have that. I wish I could see an out for the thousands of innocents in Gaza, but I don't. It seems they are at the mercies of two groups who don't care if they live or die.
So sad for all and so very unnecessary if those cruel and evil people in Hamas would stay home and work to help their people. I'm glad to hear that Yael is still safe. May she stay safe.
Thanks John and everyone else showing their support. We are under missile attack all the time. I don't know how well the media describes the massacre and horror that Hamas has done here in many localities. They hurt babies, children and people in the most unimaginably cruel way. There are no equal sides here. It is important to understand that Hamas is ISIS and the danger is great not only for us. I hope I will get out of this safely. Me and my children and grandchildren who are very close to the line of fire. Thanks to everyone who expresses support and understands that this time is an unusual situation.
A few days before the initial attack I rewatched footage of 9/11. Seeing the fear and terror from back then I can't even imagine what Israel is going through now.
Yael updates her blog when she can and it is most helpful to hear she is safe and what is going on there. It's a horrible situation. Here's her blog: http://yuliyamoreorless.blogspot.com/
This is such a terrible thing. Michael's cousin, who he considers a sister, lives in Haifa. Michael has been worried sick. He has heard from her, and she's okay.
What an awful time . . .
