Haifa, Israel's third-largest city, has been the frequent target of Hezbollah's rocket attacks. "I have a special message to the Arabs of Haifa, to your martyrs and to your wounded.

Losing 12 soldiers to one katyusha attack is a national tragedy for this country. For the U.S., our loss of 2,500+ soldiers is hardly noted except as a statistic. It’s not even allowable to photograph the coffins coming home. Our soldiers die almost anonymously. The average American didn’t know any of the dead, and Americans’ lives are not essentially changed by the Iraq war. But Israel is more like one big neighborhood than a country.
