I'm leaving.... On a big tank..... don't know when I'll be back again....
I'm going into the Israeli army for a short period for my yearly reserve duty. I'll be gone from the 6th of this month to the 23rd (theoretically on that last date...). So if you don't hear from me by the 25th or so you should probably assume the worst... :-/

Here's to getting back safe and sound!

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Do be careful, that area is really shaping up as a hot spot. Wish you good luck!

It's not what you probably think; I already did my 3 years service in the army, and this is just reserves... but still

Thanks, all!

Hey hey hey! I'm back for 2 days leave... boy has it been an interesting time. I've actually seen some action and all. I'm trying to keep a journal of sorts on my Palm, so I'll put it up for anyone who's interested to read about.  

Anyway, for anyone who's been keeping up on the news from this corner of the world, that suicide bomber that blew up in the center of Jerusalem really has me pi**ed.   17 dead. One family lost the father, mother and 3 of 5 kids. And what did they do? Just go out for a summer family outing at a popular pizza place in town.

I'm not sure if I could continue this post without making serious use of swearing, so I'll just stop here.

Yeah, I heard about that. Everyone here in Brazil is quite mad about the incident - one of the people killed and a few of the injured on the blast were brazilians. Now go back there and bulldoze those damn terrorists before it's too late...

No, he's not back for real, just popping his head in to say "hello" while on break from classes.

I saw an article on the BBC the other day about a Palestinian school for suicide bombers... it's *******  insane, I swear, these kids are sent to this summer school and told that being a suicide bomber is the greatest thing, and if they are one, when they get to heaven, and I quote, "there will be 12 virgins waiting for them" (I think it's 12... dunno anymores...)
 I know well enough not to beleive everything I see on the news- hell, I do A level Media Studies, and I've watched B5  , but the BBC usually does a good job of showing an unbiased report...
