     I'm embarrassed. Chess is my passion, and like all hobbyists I follow the top players and stars of the game.

     But WTF!!

     The current big event in the chess World is the Jerusalem Masters organised by the Israeli chess federation. So while they are killing Palestinians and Lebanese, they are hosting a cultural chess festival? I am disgusted by this, and no less because two Ukrainians are playing who should be able to sympathise with people having their homeland invaded!

     Sorry, I know it isn't important in the scheme of things, but this is my little part of life and I am sickened by it.
