The Drill

Yesterday was the big nationwide security drill in Israel. We were supposed to calmly and quickly rush for shelter.

I was in Jerusalem for both sirens. They were ignored.

Maybe in other places people took them seriously.

Ironic. Pre 1967 War Israel Jerusalem was in constant danger. You can still see the bullet holes in reconstructed buildings in Mamilla Mall and other former border areas.

Just now I heard a clip of Obama saying that he finds Netanyahu's conditions for a Palestinian state a trick of sorts. True.

For the dangers of a Palestinian state there is no drill. And that is our greatest danger.
