I found myself in a true deja vu situation today. In 1991, Israel knew that we would be attacked with rockets from Iraq. The only question was which day that week the attacks would begin. I was in Tel Aviv the day before the first rockets were fired, sitting in a pastry shop, when it was playing "On Top of the World" being sung by Karen Carpenter. i considered it, in view of the situation, to be very ironic.

This evening,I was in an outdoor pastry shop near Haifa and a Hebrew version of the same song was piped in.
