(Not So) Fun Fact
Jul. 17th, 2014 05:19 pmI am supposed to be flying to Israel and the West Bank at the end of this month. Minutes ago, Israel started a ground invasion into Gaza.
I'm being told by people close to the situation that the West Bank is not experiencing any of the turmoil, and the fighting is several hours away. This is all fine, but, since I live in Baltimore, it's like saying that there's a war in Richmond. Not a situation I'd really want to get anyone involved in. Now I have to talk with the two people coming with me, and try to figure out if we want to postpone the visit or not. I really want to, but I also don't want to feel like I'm giving in to my anxiety, since I know I'm having problems controlling that.
Ugh.
