I hear more about the war from Americans than I do from Israelis.
Not that it's not on their mind, but as one Israeli said to me, "this is the Middle East. If we got all worked up about every war, we'd go crazy."
The guy who was helping me at the cell phone store today:
"How are you?"
"I'm fine. You?"
"Me? I'm excellent. Things in the south? not so good, but I'm excellent."
And I just talked to a friend of mine who lives within rocket range. She said:
"A couple of times a day, we hear the alarm. We have 7 minutes to run to the bomb shelter. We run. Then, it's over. Then, back to normal."
Definitely a different breed here.
