The 17 Hour War - 6.9.26
For people not living in the north, this was a short war, and after what we’ve been through, a few sirens, a few rockets, shouldn’t mean anything. But that’s not what happened. In 17 hours we relived the hysteria and the dangers of the past two and a half years, and somehow we were back there. We suddenly realized what we had immunized ourselves from – expressing the fear and the loss of two and a half years of our lives.
This is a tiny country of less than 9 million people – compared to 93 million people in Iran, and in 17 hours we got shot at from Lebanon, Yemen and Iran.
