One of the unusual things about Israel is that you see men and women doing their military service walking around town with their giant machine guns. Seeing so many soldiers makes me feel worried about being here, and how safe it actually is.

Wow that's cool George it must be weird seeing all those armed soldiers around. Two weeks ago I got to stay at base Borden with my air cadet squadron and there was tons of armed soldiers around. Don't worry I'm sure your safe, have fun and post often

It is a strange site for us Canadians seeing young people not much older than you with sub machine guns. Now that you have seen the Holocaust Museum, you now have a much better idea why they do carry them. You are going to Masada as well, which also is part of the story. To the Israeli, the phrase "Never Again" is very important.
