How many people still remember a certain Saturday, October 6, 1973? Now, that all depends on who one is, and where one lives. Jews in the Diaspora will remember it as the Day of Atonement, and Syrians and Egyptians still celebrate it as their Day of Jihad (Holy war). For Israelis it is the day, the month, and the year indelibly seared into our memories: Saturday October 6, 1973, when all hell broke loose in this tiny land of ours.
