It is Saturday morning in Tel Aviv. 147 days have gone by since the morning of Saturday October 7. Nothing can be said without mentioning the number of dead but nothing seems more meaningless. We say these numbers and do not understand what we say.

It is now 1 p.m., Wednesday, October 18, and I am at home, in Tel Aviv. Eleven days have passed since the October 7 attack on Israel. At least 1,400 people were killed in one day, mostly civilians, and there are around 200 Israeli hostages held in the Gaza Strip. Israel has since launched its deadliest attack on Gaza so far: around 3,500 Gazans have been killed, about 1,000 of them children. Hamas still manages to fire rockets at Israel, mostly toward towns closer to Gaza, but some toward Tel Aviv.
