Thanks for a really interesting post, and for the link about the Sabra. I have just recently watched an excellent five part series called The Story of the Jews by Simon Schama. I can recommend it - Schama is a good historian and I enjoy his programmes.

A lasting image from it was when on a particular day a siren sounded to mark the time for remembering the victims of the Shoah/Holocaust. The entire city stopped - cars stopped in the street, people got out and stood beside them. It was very moving.
