Northern Exposures (Exclusive video, audio, photos)

Took part in an all-day visit to communities, bomb shelters and a forward IDF post along the northern border with a US Israel supporter who handed out hundreds of gifts, food and good cheer. I will be posting exclusive video, audio, and many photos from the heartwrenching, sometimes frightening trek. But utterly exhausterated for now. Will be back soon...

Among the highlights:

• Visiting with wounded soldiers, their families and staff at Nahariya's Western Galilee hospital
• Talking with a former Montrealer and veteran Israeli from Nahariya, who's been stuck in a bomb shelter for almost a month
• Clowning around with kids in the same shelter, to cheer their spirits
• Talking with guitar-playing, tank-fixing troops, deployed eyeball-to-eyeball with Hizbullah
  
• Getting sonically pummeled when caught in between a northward-bound IDF artillery barrage and a salvo of southbound Katyushas and mortars
