Heading to Israel, twitter recap, news dump
Damage caused by Hamas rocket today which severely injured two sisters of ages 10 and 13. The girls are Israeli Arab Beduim
On the day the war began - I booked the ticket, not knowing what's coming, but following my business schedule. So I won't pat my back for some bravery or patriotism. Like most reasonable human beings, I hope for two contradictory things:
1. For stability, calm and security to return as soon as possible.
2. For the terrorist to be eliminated and removed once and for all.
Can you hear me sigh?
More contradictions I'm thinking of:
1. Only a ground offensive - carried to the end and killing/incarceration all terrorists will prevent the next eminent round of rocket terror.
2. The human cost of life in both sides is such a great risk - that one yearns for other turn of events to occur.
Well - that's what's on my mind, that and endless stalking news feeds, where if I find something worth noting, I bookmark it on twitter. Here are latest headlines I collected from Twitter:
* Egyptian Media Calls for Destruction of Hamas – Obama Makes Them Peace Partners
