Here (link to YouTube) is Jerusalem of Gold (Yerushalaim Shel Zahav), a beautiful song closely linked to the Six-day War of 1967, sung in 1998 by the late Ofra Haza (November 19, 1957 – February 23, 2000).
And here is a YouTube link to Hatikvah, Israel's national anthem (fondly remembered). May the peace that has proved so elusive come to Israel and Palestine.
Here appear occasional jottings of my random musings. Profound or jejune, they reveal the contours of my mental universe, with world history, intellectual history, civilizations, philosophy, religion, society, knowledge, and books as some major themes. Since May 2011, this blog has been exclusively focused on Singapore. All my other reflections are now posted in "Notes from Noosphere" (see link under "Miscellany" on the right margin).
