When life goes on the way it does
The war has entered it's 3rd week. No real achievements on the ground so far. Israel's military action inside the Lebanese areas remains unclear. The Israelis first claimed that they want to create a neutral area of 6-8 Kilometers between Israel and Lebanon. Now, they are claiming to create an area of 20 k"m. So far, it seems that the plan is not working quite well, since the rockets attacks on Israel haven't stopped yet.
Yesterday Hizbulla's leader appeared on tv and threatened to attack Tel Aviv in case Israel attacks Beirut. I don't know how serious he is and more importantly I am not sure if he has the logistic capacity to do so. It was interesting to notice that he was very pathetic yesterday. We didn't see him speaking with excitement or with ecstasy the way he usually speaks. His speech was a mixture of threatnings, lies, and bombastic declerations. I really hope there won't be any further escelation or any direct military intervention by other countries in the region. I also have the feeling that the war might end by the end of next week. At least I hope that by next week we would witness the end.
Yesterday the university announced that it will renew the exams on September the 3rd. Because of the war the exams had to be postponed. This actually ruined our plan because my friends and I have already booked a flight to Munich for September, and I had to cancel the trip until I know the exact date of my exams. This is the second time in my life that my exams collide with planned trips abroad. I wonder what does Murphy likes about me???
I have also received a date for my final recruitment. It is going to be November the 2nd, and I'll write more about that in my next posts

I certainly hope that you are right and we will see the end of all this craziness in the next week.
Sad about your trip, this stupid war has ruined my travel plans as well, though a return visit to the Middle East might be possible if everyone stops bombing each other soon (*crosses fingers*)
Looking forward to hearing more about recruitment.
And I'm off (I am a slacker and took a 3 hour lunch and am leaving work at the normal time, but I will make up the time tomorrow, so perhaps more then.)
