Andrew Roberts in The Free Press is wondering whether Trump will go the “Full Churchill” and risk unMAGAing. To tell the truth, if I were in charge (and they say a woman is in charge of the Iran Operation in Israel) I would. In an unfortunate choice of quotes what comes to mind is from MacBeth “If it were done when ’tis done, then ’twere well It were done quickly:” Trump is waiting to see if negotiations work, but I get the feeling of dealing with a James Bond villian, who promises safety if you go along with him, while he’s got your assassination planned out to the minute.
We’re definitely in a moment that will decide the future of the world. But I comfort myself in Winston Churchill‘s words: “You can always count on Americans to do the right thing – after they’ve tried everything else.”

All day I’ve been hearing from friends who have been ‘displaced’ by a missile. They’re staying with family, friends. It’s getting very serious, and we’re getting more and more tired.
and scared.

You know this date if you read the history of the Jews in Persia according to the Book of Esther. This is the day that the king of Persia overturned the fate of the Jews in his realm.
This is also the day that Iran used a missile in my neighborhood that had lots of “little” bombs. When you use these nasty weapons specifically on a civilian population, you’re not whistling Dixie.

Sometimes I write nonsense – just to let you know I’ve checked, and all my limbs are intact. Ezi too. The kids are keeping safe, but of course, we’re crazy battle-fatigued. The neighbor upstairs dropped a book just now and I jumped. not surprising – the whole building jumped this morning.

I realize that Khoumeni is trying to get back at us for what we did to Haman, but at 7 in the morning? I mean there were operations going on in the hospital he bombed. Haim called to tell me he was home and had postponed his treatment. But i don’t know what happened to most of my friends.
No wonder we’ve been overeating – we need those extra layers of fat to keep the pieces of rockets from hitting our vital parts!
I just wrote so you can know we’re okay so far.
