My thanks to one reader who was alert and who cared to pass on an important correction: I wrote that King Saul resolved the issue of the two mothers claiming one child. Of course it was King Solomon the wise. Hate the expression DUH! but it fits me for sure. Also noticed a couple of typos, but if you didn’t see them, I’m not about to point them out. Nevertheless, it’s great to get comments, and I hope you’ll take the time to write a few words in the comment box occasionally.
Thanks to all who took the time to read “Watching Israel Rips Itself Apart.” I tried to keep partisenship out of the discussion, but at least one peson decided I was “right wing.”
Those designations, I think, are becoming increasingly polarizing - or to use the current word, binary. I sense a certain extra disdain, completely dismissive, when someone says, “Oh, you’re right wing.” In many camps, to be labeled right wing is the kiss of death. I dunno, maybe the same might apply for left wing in other camps.
Instead of using the anatomy of birds, maybe we should use the anatomy of fish. Then you might be left fin, right fin, or if you find middle ground, you’d be dorsal fin. Unfortunately, some fish also have an anal fin and that could be problematic.
Keeping it short and sweet, I hope.
