The name of this episode derives from one of the chapters in my book "The Dead Hand, Short Tales of a Long Dictatorship".Rright after the military coup in Chile, on september 11th, 1973, Mariana is invited by an army officer to her husband's office to pick up personal belongings. Her husband David, wanted at that moment by the army, was hiding in a safe house, fearing the army might execute people connected to the previous government. Mariana finds in one of the drawers a note with names and contact information of various colleagues that were all in the wanted list, and without thinking she swallos the piece of paper before the army officer can reach and read it.

The past weeks have been extremely dificult, as we experienced the deadliest attack against civilians in Israel and from that moment we quickly escalated into a war against Hamas, however this is a war that could easily expand into a regional crisis, with other countries and terror organizations joining in, such as Iran on the east, and Hizballa from the north, a crisis that is an existantial threat to Israel and also to the rest of the western world.

My initial reaction like many others here was of shock, disbelief and silence, out of respect for the woundedm the dead, and the people kidnapped, however the realizations that we need to reach out and make our voices heard took over quickly.

There are many issues I have yet to address, yet this episode is a collection of the initial overwhelming thoughts and sentiments I experienced, as a peace seeking human being living in perhaps the worst region of the world when it comes century long going on conflicts.
