It’s Time To Step Back And Take A Breath

It’s been a hell of a week.

My heart aches for all the lost lives in Israel and in Gaza.

How could something this coordinated by a terrorist group be carried out against a country with such a strong top-notch national security infrastructure.

How could have Shin Bet or Mossad missed this?

Something seems off. It’s still a tragedy. And I still stand with the innocent Israelis. But I also feel so sad for the innocent Palestinians too. You’d have to be older than 34 to have voted Hamas into power in 2007. So many of the Palestinians weren’t even born then.

Another thing that seems so strange is that with the military and intelligence that Israel has, why can’t they go into Gaza a little bit less hard-fisted.

Like I said, we don’t have the full story. My journalism-Spidey-sense is tingling.
