Tenuous

i have worked for the past 12 years in the second largest jewish congregation in the entire US. We serve the largest student body in the country (nearly 2,000). i also live in the most dense Chaldean and Muslim concentrated communities in the US. Feelings here are... tenuous.
This, from www.vitalperspective.com (the best resource for real, current and believable news from Israel), frightens me:

"If the situation escalates, will Hezbollah take the gloves off, so to speak, and attack here in the United States, which they've been reluctant to do until now?" said William Kowalski, assistant special agent in charge of the FBI in Detroit, which is home to one of the largest Muslim communities in the country.

They brought the Teen Trip to Israel back two weeks early. The flight arrived safely in NY today. Some of my former students were on this trip and i know their parents. i found myself being grateful my son decided he did not want to apply to go. Selfish, but true. After all we've been through saving his precious life, i can't even put myself in the minds of those parents who were tormented with worry all this week. my heart was aching for them. i know the worry over a child first-hand.

We had to wait for our new Director to arrive home from vacation in K'riat Shmona so that he could sign the teacher's contracts for the coming year. K'riat Shmona was one of the first places hezbolla bombed. i haven't heard if he's made it back safely.

i pray... Source of all Love and Goodness, Deep Well of Hope, help us.
