I must have been sleeping really soundly, because I didn't hear the sirens and usually I do. I live a 15-minute walk from the place that terrorists attached last night. My first thought was: this will be Mahmoud Abbas's first test.
They haven't yet published the names of the dead, but I suspect their families are horrified, knowing that if they didn't call or come home by now, it's time to call the police. I wonder how the dead bomber's family feels too. If they sympathize with him, the hell with them. If they don't, they too have been victimized.

You and me both. Life is such a precious gift.
I find the situation very confusing, I thought Abbas was negotiating peace and that his people had agreed to a ceasefire?
The thought of living in peace seems to scare some people.
You're right: Abbas is negotiating peace. Now let's deconstruct the rest of your comment: "his people had agreed to a ceasefire?"
1)"his people" = some Palestinians agree with him, others don't.
2)"agreed" = said "yes" but didn't all mean it.
3) "ceasefire" = it was quiet for a while. Nobody said how long.
Words, words, words. Indeed very confusing at best.
I am glad you are okay.
As for "Abu Mazen," we shall see how serious he is. Will he go to war with other factions, including those that are funded by Iranians and Syrians?
Is it time for the IDF to drop a bomb or two near Damascus to get some attention?
