Once again the world is watching Israel and Gaza. It seems that every day there is a new truce and every day one side or the other breaks it and the horror of war resumes. The conflict has been going on for over a month and while each day brings a renewed hope for lasting ceasefire (peace regretfully is a word that we simply can not use at the moment), we can only hope that calmer heads prevail. As I write this, the Israelis are pulling back their land forces, the tunnels have been closed and both sides have agreed to another three day truce which for the moment is holding.
