17 Tamuz
On the 17th of Tamuz in the year 70 CE, the Romans, bent on destroying Israel, breeched the walls of Jerusalem. Three weeks later they destroyed the temple.
On the 17th day of Tamuz in 2006, Hezbollah, bent on destroying Israel and apparently backed by Lebanon and Syria, attacked Haifa and Carmiel.
I'm not superstitious, but the coincidence was not lost on me.
This cannot end well, so I hope it at least ends quickly.
