it's not like they don't have cell phones, GPS units or their own damn helicopters.

there must some serious sh$t brewing there. the israeli-palestinian conflict is probably just a diversion for whatever's really going on there.

doesn't seem like US mainstream media has even mentioned the deaths.

It reminds me of "The Two Kings And The Two Labyrinths", a short fantasy included in "The Aleph" by Borges.

(the Borges' version is far more florid, and I greatly recommend it)

The King of Babylon shows his guest, the King of the Arabs, a complex labyrinth in which he becomes lost, and emerges only after a couple of days in bad shape, and not a little pissed.

Years later the King of Babylon visits the Arab King, and he abandons him in the middle of "his" labyrinth: an extensive desert in "where there are no stairs to climb, nor doors to force, or fatiguing galleries to run through", where the King of Babylon dies.
