A Short Entry

It's been a very long time since I've written. It's not
that I have nothing to say...just...I don't know, never
seem to get around to it. Maybe it's because I have too
much too say. I've been planning a certain entry for a
long time...I just...yeah...maybe it's too hard. I don't
know. Anyway...I will (I hope!) be writing again, soon...

It was my birthday a week and a half ago, and on the same
day, the 60th anniversay of the birth of the State of
Isreal (known by the Palestinians as "al-Nakba", the
catastophe). A few hours after Israel was proclaimed as a
state, it was attacked by five countries all at once:
Syria, Egypt, Transjordan, Lebanon and Iraq... and hence
began the Arab-Israeli War, and a series of conflicts that
continue to this day. Well, actually...that isn't what
started it, but it was the first war for the modern State
of Israel, anyway.

I'm rambling on as I watch this documentary. It's kind of
interesting to me, actually, because I knew a lot of this
already, and it's nice to know the things I learnt are a)
still in my head and b) accurate... rather reassuring that
my previously discovered informatin is accurate! :)

I'll try to be back soon...be good.
