Israel expecting another Iraqi missile attack - Eitan Vazani.
|
||
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
It is night again, almost midnight. I spent the last several hours in
|
||
|
|
my girlfriends house. We already had an alarm. Again, with beating
|
||
|
|
hearts, we ran into the sealed room and wore the gas masks. Again,
|
||
|
|
fear and uncertainty. It took 15 minutes until the army announced
|
||
|
|
that we can relax, there is no missile attack. This happened because
|
||
|
|
of an information about an attack, which proved to be incorrect.
|
||
|
|
At the same time, we learned later, there was also an alarm in Saudi-
|
||
|
|
Arabia and Bahrain.
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
I am sitting to write again. It is 1:15 am and I just finished
|
||
|
|
watching TV (Wise Guy). In the middle we had another alarm. This
|
||
|
|
time my brother (who came back from the army for a vacation), was the
|
||
|
|
first to notice. We jumped on our feet and rushed to wake up our
|
||
|
|
parents. Until they woke up, the alarm stopped. We listened to the
|
||
|
|
radio - nothing, just music. Within several minutes we heard the
|
||
|
|
cancellation alarm. A minute later the radio informed us that we can
|
||
|
|
relax. Another minute passed and we were informed that this happened
|
||
|
|
due to a Soviet satellite launch or destruction.
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
We are becoming very sensitive and very nervous. We are virtually
|
||
|
|
waiting for an attack. We jump to every sound louder than usual.
|
||
|
|
This is a very heavy load on our nerves, but we won't break down.
|
||
|
|
There are no signs of panic in Israel. No one is trying to escape
|
||
|
|
to the (safe) south. The TV and radio people are doing wonderful
|
||
|
|
job. They sound calm and relaxed all the time, even when the alarms
|
||
|
|
sound, and even when a missile attack is going on outside.
|
||
|
|
We, and probably the rest of the Western countries, are waiting to see
|
||
|
|
in which way Israel will reply Saddam's missiles. We have a feeling
|
||
|
|
that a surprise is being planned for Saddam. Maybe it won't be soon,
|
||
|
|
but he will be punished.
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
I guess I'll play some more games. Maybe I'll try some fighter pilot
|
||
|
|
simulation, and imagine that I am bombing Iraqi missile sights...
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
Nervous, tired, but strong, patient and proud,
|
||
|
|
Eitan Vazani,
|
||
|
|
Israel.
