"I don't believe that there is a lack of care, more like what more can be said."

So what's being said over there? What's the community saying? What's the overall mood? Is it "business as usual"? Anger? Despondency and despair? A combination of none or all?

Any insights?

Look what happened on this thread. As soon as it was posted no tangible response of any kind was going to happen, the thread lost its momentum. Like, "Oh well, drive on." Till the next one.

Slow budding anger with Sharon, resignation that he has folded along with shock. The backlash will collapse the government sooner than later. The next government will be voted in on a hard line platform.

People are tired of trying to domesticate jackals. The moderates want to wall them off, the rest of the people are ready to drive them out. The few liberals that are left are tolerated poorly.

People yell at cars with peace now stickers on them. But the Jews are such pacifists they will try till the cows come home to make peace with the Arabs, and then they will have a barbecue.
