One of the campers this week, a seven year old girl, just told me, "my daddy just went to war." Being israeli, she was talking about the current conflict between Israel and Lebanon. World events just sweep people along, sometimes pulling them apart and taking them away. I hope her dad makes it through, and it's sad thinking that he might not. It's sad thinking about the countless of other little kids who have said the same thing over the years. It doesn't matter which side of the conflict you're on, or which conflict it is - the loss of life is unacceptable.
