Israel at the start of the Iraqi war - Eitan Vazani.

Hello again to all Shadow BBS callers.
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
I am writing this a mere 90 minutes since U.S. forces started attacking
|
||
|
|
Saddam Houssain's forces. The past 3 days in Israel were loaded with
|
||
|
|
high tension, which is now at its peak. When the attacks began 90 mins.
|
||
|
|
ago, it was 2:00 am. Many people in Israel were not sleeping and sat
|
||
|
|
listening to the radio, waiting for the news. And the news arrived.
|
||
|
|
Israeli government instructed everybody to stay at home, and prepare
|
||
|
|
the gas protection means (gas mask, Atropin shot, cleaning powder, etc.).
|
||
|
|
Quickly, all those who were staying up called their friends to make sure
|
||
|
|
they wake up and get ready. Within an hour most of Israel began preparing
|
||
|
|
to a possible a gas attack (Conventional explosive attacks are less
|
||
|
|
worry, since many people here are familiar with it).
|
||
|
|
I for example, were sleeping at my girlfriend's house. Like the rest of
|
||
|
|
the people here, I suspected that "tonight is the night", but nevertheless
|
||
|
|
fell asleep. My girlfriend's grandmother was to nervous to stay up, and
|
||
|
|
she sat listening to the radio. When she heard that it's started, she
|
||
|
|
awakened the rest of us. After calming down my girlfriend, I explained
|
||
|
|
to her how to use the gas mask, and rushed home to wake up my parents
|
||
|
|
and my sister (who just came for a free evening from the army...).
|
||
|
|
I woke up everybody, and briefed them with everything I already knew.
|
||
|
|
We prepared the house by closing all the windows, and prepare our gas
|
||
|
|
masks. Within minutes we started calling friends and neighbors to make
|
||
|
|
sure they are awake and aware of the situation.
|
||
|
|
Although CNN reports that U.S. Air Force attacked missiles and planes
|
||
|
|
dangerous to Israel, we are all very tense. The Iraqis have about 30
|
||
|
|
small, movable missile launchers, and there are good chances that some
|
||
|
|
of them were not destroyed. Also, they might send some bombers to a
|
||
|
|
one way mission against Israel.
|
||
|
|
We are tense and I admit that we are a bit afraid, but we keep cool in
|
||
|
|
order to behave properly if anything happens.
|
||
|
|
I must say that nearly all the people in Israel are actually glad to have
|
||
|
|
this war, since avoiding it simply means that Saddam Houssain will gain
|
||
|
|
more power (including nuclear weapons), which he will use against Israel
|
||
|
|
without mercy. For now, Israel was not attacked, and therefore did not
|
||
|
|
attack Iraq. But this may change every minute.
|
||
|
|
This is all for now, there are several things that I should do.
|
||
|
|
I will write more when I have something you. I guess you are the first
|
||
|
|
to get first hand information from Israel.
|
||
|
|
From what I know until now, U.S. forces are doing just great. I must
|
||
|
|
thank you, the people of America, for stopping this mad terrorist.
|
||
|
|
Israel knows too well the pain of losing sons and husbands in a war,
|
||
|
|
so we are all hoping and praying for American soldiers to get back home
|
||
|
|
soon and safe.
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
Goodbye,
|
||
|
|
.
|
||
|
|
Eitan Vazani.
