Think about what people are doing on Facebook today. They're keeping up with their friends and family, but they're also building an image and identity for themselves, which in a sense is their brand.

The direction is clear: We are headed toward a separation from the Palestinians. We are headed toward the determination of a permanent border for the state of Israel.

Toys today are more stereotyped than they were 20 years ago; the market is even more segmented. And they can go into their own kitchen anytime they want, for God's sake. On the other hand, maybe it doesn't matter because girls are doing everything anyway, even being soldiers.

When I was a child, for a public/civil servant to be caught in corrupt practices, that individual will be a pariah. He will be a complete reject of the society; he/she could not raise his or her voice to speak in the public. So what happened between that time and now? That time when a public officer, prison or customs officer caught in corruption hides his face in shame amongst his peers, he just couldn't come out publicly. Today, when they come back, they get chieftaincy titles, they are received in grand style, cows are killed, they ride on white horses.
