It Ain’t Over Till It’s Over, and It Don’t Feel Over

Adrian sums up the disgruntled and unsettled sentiments in the north and beyond:

The natives are restless. Unhappy reservists are starting to ask difficult questions and the IDF brass hats are starting to respond. Too early yet to say what needs to be done. The people in the North are not pleased either. Our local council refuses to put air conditioning in the local shelters on the grounds ‘ they’d just be stolen’. Thanks. How about local guards then? As we never had enough warning to be sure of making it to the shelters people preferred what shelter they could get at home. No, we can’t live for weeks on end in a concrete room with no water or sanitation.

As for the general mood, everyone expects this to start up again but bigger.

He will only truly believe it is actually over under very specific conditions:

When will we know when this war is over?
When the bomb shelters revert to their intended use which is junk storage, kindergardens, AA meetings and illicit rumpty tumpty.
