flotilla

my brief internet stop in almaty before going to the airport to fly to dubai was marred by the realization that my friend hedy epstein might have just been murdered by the IDF. after some frantic googles, it turns out she wasn't on the boat. not that that is any consolation to the friends and family of those who were killed.

sometimes i am stunned by the cruel stupidity of israel's current leadership. people often talk about how israel as a nation faces all these existential threats. but really the greatest threat to israel's continued existence is completely self-made. it really is its own worst enemy.
