High-school students who might have gone to peace demonstrations or rock concerts a few years ago are now collecting gift baskets for soldiers fighting Palestinian terrorists in Jenin and Ramallah. In reserve units called to duty, the turnout is over 100 percent, with many volunteers showing up to fight with their buddies and for their families. The writer celebrates this shift. I find it sad beyond . . . Israel has moved from a society in which teen agers had the ability to go to rock concerts or political demonstrations into a wartime society. I do not think Israeli society "celebrates" this switch. I wouold hope it mourns the move into it.
