Haifa

Bad day in Haifa.
We're OK.
Lots of hits and casualties here in our city.
I'm tired and want to stay tonight. Thinking seriously about going to Jerusalem tomorrow. Adi points out that next to Al Aqsa is probably the safest place in the country, the only place Nasrallah wouldn't dare hit. He certainly doesn't seem to mind killing Arabs. He simply declares them shahids, martyrs. Today some of the worst damage was in Wadi Nisnas, Haifa's Arab neighborhood. We often take visitors there for humus and honey-filled pastries. Ironically one of the hits destroyed the offices of a communist newspaper. The local communist party is essentially an arab party, not particularly communist. They have been protesting Israeli activity in Lebanon.
