The internet brings the tragic events to the world having a greater emotional impact. I don't see a traditional World War III but I do see lots of people fighting and lots of mistakes made everywhere. Is a third world war actually happening and most people don't know it? You know I believe this is a hologram and everything that's happening everywhere, to everyone, is bashert (destined).

My client replied: We feel safe but the situation is very frustrating. I don't live in the south where it is very hard. Also, my heart goes for many people in both sides that lose their lives. I'm kind of on the left wing here which supports settlement evacuation. Many people who held this approach lost their trust in the other side because the rockets started after we evacuated Gaza. The reality is very complex... With Abu Mazen we can make peace but with Hamas there is no chance. It is an organization which only strives for war and killing - and Israel is not doing its part in giving hope for the Palestinians by stopping the settlement growth.
