I had just posted yesterday's 35-year-old memory about "Gulf War I" in the early morning hours when the news came in that the United States and Israel had commenced a sustained bombing campaign against Iran. The Iranians are retaliating by bombing Israel and various Arab Gulf States that have U.S. military bases.
I think we are past the point of no return on this latest war. What a preposterous thing to do!! Unfortunately, it's not surprising, but it's a great sorrow, and we can barely imagine the disasters that may yet unfold. God help us!
Black smoke and bright fire all over the Middle East.
