Preparing For War
STRATEGY PAGE
November 20, 2007: Fatah and Hamas continue to consolidate power in their respective strongholds of the West Bank and Gaza. Fatah is having the easier time of it, because Israeli troops are still in the West Bank. Hamas, on the other hand, is preparing for war...
The economy in Gaza is a shambles, and getting ready for war is the only growth industry.


One of these days strategy page may surprise us all with an announcement that Fatah and Hamas are at war.

But it won't happen till after their writers wake up.

Tomorrow will be a wonderful and exceptional day for my family. We rarely manage to get all of us together. But for tomorrow, my 3 children, their spouses and their 7 seven kids have arranged for all of us to have dinner together at a NC Beach town. I am so looking forward to the day.

One of my younger grandsons called last night to tell me that he didn't think we would be able to hike on the beach (as I had promised) because his mom said it was going to rain. I told him not to worry, we will go on the hike and be fine because skin is waterproof. He asked how I know that. I told him I learned it in the army.

Meanwhile, today I am sending all of them this reminder of why we are so blessed.
