Cosmopolitanism has a bad name. People living across cultures and in several countries are accused of being hedonistic, disloyal, and superficial. I proudly accept all these accusations. And I appeal to the millions like me: people speaking many languages, familiar with many cultures, owing allegaince to nobody but their own ethical code. We are the future.

World War 2 WILL happen!
In 1935 Jean Giradoux wrote the play "The Trojan War Will Not Happen" about the madness of the crowds and politicians running headlong into an obvious disaster. The disaster came 4 years later. And the Europe is still apparently fighting and re-fighting the same endless war. The picture is of a demonstration in Greece on 28/10/11. What war will Israel be fighting 70 years from now? The War of Independence? The Judean War?
