I have been in contact with an Israeli Lady who is a long time Rambus member and a former Goldtenter

Here is the exchange so far.

Hello XXXX
I have been thinking of you of course lately.
You are the only Israeli I know.
Can you tell what is the status of your Country right now ?
Are you OK ?
Can you share your thoughts and feelings about the situation ?
Thought and prayers for safety and normalization as soon as possible
from over here in Canada.
warm regards

Dear Gary,

Great to hear from you,

It is not so easy to share things that are sensitive and difficult.

In our village in the north one family was kidnaped: parents with 2 children 5 and 7 years old, a boy and a girl. They were visiting their parents in Beeri near Gaza border, their parents: the father died from wounds and the mother is still missing. The parents home was burned totally.

Few of our friends had their children in the party near Gaza and they were killed.

It is not a good circumstances from where we are specially because of the disasters that the killers did with the people and the bodies.

In our village in the north we are preparing for the attack from local Arab villages and Missiles from Lebanon and Syria.

Hope things will calm down soon but it doesn’t look so, the Arab leaders are trying to enlarge the war.

In the civil areas we need to carry weapons in order to protect our self, it wasn’t like that before, the feeling was more safe.

How is the effect on the shares?
……..

So sorry to hear of all of this XXXX
I was not aware there was so much attacks like this in the North

I will continue to send my good will and prayers to you and your fellow villagers
I know you are a very gentle loving and kind person . You deserve to live in peace and harmony.

Do you know of our sister site Goldtent ?
We are discussion Israel and Ukraine and of course all the news of the day there all the time

I would like to post your comments there as an example of the very real human story you are all living through

Completely anonymously of course.
You can say no and I would understand of course.

A couple more questions

What is the mood of the people in your area towards The Israeli Government ?

What is the consensus regarding which President is better for Israel…..Biden or Trump ?

God forbid things escalate do you have a safer place to go outside of Israel and would you consider going ?

Were you born and raised in Israel or did you emigrate there from the USA ? Your English is impeccable

I will pass on your concerns but he doesn’t factor in any outside influences like war . Just follows the charts as you know
Again…warm regards
Gary
…………..

Grateful to know that you are sending health and good wishes.

The kidnaping of the family from the north occurred when they visited their parents in the south near Gaza in Beeri village.

I didn’t visit the site Goldtent for a long time, i think I once had access but not now.

You are welcome to post my comments, I can send more in the following days.

Here are the answers:

What is the mood of the people in your area towards The Israeli Government ?
It is not one voice but there is a thought that they are not dealing in the right level of importance, but perhaps something will change now.

What is the consensus regarding which President is better for Israel…..Biden or Trump ?
I don’t know if there is a consensus, it seems that we need to deal well with whoever will be the president.
I think that Trump did a good work trying to solve things in a new way and discard the deep_ state.

God forbid things escalate do you have a safer place to go outside of Israel and would you consider going ?
Right now we don’t have a better place to stay, it might be possible in the future but I hope we can handle the current situation well.

Were you born and raised in Israel or did you emigrate there from the USA ? Your English is impeccable .Thank you, I was born in Israel my parents were born in Poland and Minmar (Burma)

I lived in USA for 1 year in 6th grade in school.
I trust Rambus work and love his analysis.
Best regards and keep doing the important work,

XXXX
