Here in Israel, the sombre mood of Remembrance Day (Yom Hazikaron) has just given way to the festivities of Independence Day* (Yom Ha’atzmaut).
And that is the best reply to this despicable post by some Arab Americans (designed to denigrate Israel and those who have fallen protecting her civilians from the countless attacks at the hands of our enemies). We have an independent, prosperous State, and we are not going away (or read ck’s response – he articulates it better than me).
I plan on celebrating the way I do every year – BBQ overload! We are going to some friends for a BBQ tonight, and then off on a hike/BBQ tomorrow. So blogging will be light (or non-existent) tomorrow.
* Hence the Will Smith photo. Do I have to explain everything?!
