Letter from the Editor

Vox Calamitas 

I was in the process of completing this issue of Migraineur when I first learned of the horrific events that were occurring in southern Israel. I listened with increasing disbelief to the accounts of civilian citizens dragged from their homes to be murdered, mutilated, raped, and kidnapped. Of children witnessing the murder of their parents and then snatched off by the murderers to serve as hostages or worse…innocent puppets manipulated for political theater.

Celerity Press, the publisher of this magazine, has made a substantial donation to Magen David Adom, Israel’s equivalent of the American Red Cross. We offer to those Arab Muslim citizens of Israel our most profound expression of respect and admiration for the compassion and courage you have shown by providing aid and comfort to the Jewish refugees forced to flee from their homes. We grieve for the innocent civilians of Palestine who have suffered so much already, and - as a consequence of the acts of those who purport to lead them - now are suffering yet more.

Each of the individuals who contribute to this magazine has his or her own perspectives and passions, but we are united in our sympathy for the innocent on either side of this tragic conflict.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
