With all of this Global Warming in the air, I thought last night was a perfect night for a fire. I went downstairs to grab some old newspaper and a few headlines jumped right off the page. It could have been yesterday’s paper, but it wasn’t.
It was the Boston Sunday Globe, April 15, 2001, page A15.
Mideast blasts kill 1, wound 6
Gaza explosion linked to Hamas
JERUSALEM-One Palestinian was killed and five, including a boy, were seriously wounded in an explosion yesterday in a home in Gaza City, Palestinian police said. Shortly afterward, two bombs explodeed in the Tel Aviv suburb of Kfar Saba, and one person was seriously wounded.
The second headline, again on page A15 in the April 15, 2001 Boston Sunday Globe,
Rocket attack kills one in Israel
KFAR CHOUBA-Lebanon- Hezbollah fighters hit an Israeli tank in the Glan heights with a rocket yesterday, killing a soldier and prompting Israeli airstrikes on suspected guerilla camps in southern Lebanon.
And some people today want you to believe that none of this would be happening if only Israel had worked harder for peace.
