Am Israel Hai

 

Dry Bones Blog Golden Oldies, now coming to you by Sali, the LSW (Long Suffering Wife)

Sali the LSW here, I am posting Dry Bones Golden Oldies in the fond memory of Yaakov.

Well it has been an interesting night. The whole country was woken up by sirens at 3 AM. But the siren was much shorter than usual and was not accompanied by a loud siren alert on our phones. Instead we got a message to go to our safe spaces and to be prepared to stay there for an extended time. It was a strange tactic, as no missiles were yet launched at Israel, but put everyone on very high alert. Today, all activities have been cancelled, and it seems that Iran launched 100 drones at us that are due to arrive at about 10.30 to 11.30 AM. And then more, faster missiles after that.

I am making this posting early. I was planning to do it in the afternoon, just before Shabbat, but I will probably be in my safe room by then for an extended stay. We certainly do live in interesting times.

We are seeing images on TV of preparing the hospital underground parking lots with all of the hospital equipment and beds for the patients.

Thousands more soldiers have been called up, and I am praying for the safety of all of our soldiers and all of us. Here is a Dry Bones cartoon from 2014, but exactly what he probably would have done today.

Praying that our soldiers be protected, and our remaining hostages be returned soon.
Praying that the whole of our country and people be protected.
Shabbat Shalom, wishing for peace and safety, to us all, Sali Ariel, the LSW for Yaakov Kirschen (Dry Bones)
