    I made the mistake of watching the evening news tonight. The sight of small children on either side, bloodied and terrified, filled me with such anguish that I could not eat dinner. Does any side ever "win" a war?

    Just heard Biden is going to Israel on Wednesday. Announced it two days ahead of time. I can’t help but think this is a very bad idea. When GWB went to Iraq or Afghanistan, it was announced after he was already there or gone.

    I would work with churches and synagogues like they did after WWII.

    I would ask dispensation from my condo board on rentals, and I would offer up my condo to a couple of Israelis. It is small, but luxe.

    I've already offered a floor of my home to my friend who had her family butchered in their home, if she and her remaining family need a place to stay. They are currently in Jerusalem.

    I've also had friends from Seattle who are returning to Israel to fight sign me up as a volunteer to do urban search/rescue/medical work over there, through Magen David Adom, if they have a need.

    So if I vanish off the radar in the next few weeks, hopefully I'll be back. I'm heading over to the UK tomorrow.

    Bon voyage, bae, and have a wonderful time with your daughter (I'm sure you will).

    Bae, congratulations for your daughter on getting her advanced degree, and if you buy a property there, I hope it’s very very old! Because that would be cool. And then, if you get to Israel, be safe.
