I never realized how much I believe in the Evil Eye. But now, I’m terrified at my delight in the new government. I listen to all the new ministers, and hear a new approach – a positive desire to do the best for our country. The amount of ego in the previous government is made so salient in the approaches of the new ministers to their offices, their approach to the people who work with them, the sense of common goals and collaborative organization. It seems almost too good to be possible. And with all the unrest in today’s society here, there are terrible problems to deal with. One example: Sheikh Jerrakh is one example of a long-term festering situation made to explode now on the occasion of the election. It didn’t have to be aggravated now. There was no need to evict families – it was just aggravating a problem that could have been solved. But the scorched earth policy can be restored. Let’s hold our breath and see what happens.
