Into Zac's this morning for a little more sorting before we officially re-open after refurbishment - and fully open the first time since lockdown.
Then home and out for a walk with Elder Son and Theo. Cue cute puppy photos.
A discussion - in writing group of all places - about the relative merits or otherwise of Israel and Palestine brought to the fore the huge gap between me (Palestine) and another writer (Israel). We changed the subject before it got too heated because we were never going to agree. How much worse must it be for those actually living there to consider any sort of compromise or settlement?

How lovely. I've just received an email from someone from a group asking what's on Zac's Christmas wish list. I said pants, pants, pants! So helpful when people ask what we want before donating.

Kissinger colluded in the saturation bombing of North Vietnam to force their surrender. Whereupon he signed off on various documents. I'd look elsewhere. Maybe Mo Mowlam and the Good Friday Irish agreement? I'd have suggested George Mitchell, but he seems to be in the Epstein files, sigh.
Look closely at any peacemaker and you'll find shades of grey,. some darker than others. Politicians do what ie expedient and have to compromise, too.
