Asaf Hanuka’s ongoing bilingual strip, The Realist, describes life as a young father in Tel Aviv.  Usually laced with wry humor, this installment could not be more serious.  “There's a war coming. Everyone knows it but nobody seems worried, almost as if it's just a longer winter…”

“The experts are saying it's happening in May. We will wake up to the sounds of sirens, grab the kid and run down to the shelter. Tel Aviv will be bombed by hundreds of missiles. From that point on it will be hard to predict what will happen, but I will do my best in the limits on this blog to provide an accurate description, projecting a possible future.”
