February 29th As expected, I didn’t have a whole of history to draw from today. 1948 - Cairo-Haifa train bombed. During the Palestinian War a Jewish resistance group blew up the train, killing 28 British soldiers and wounding dozens more. This was in retaliation for an explosion in Jerusalem that killed 54 Jews. In other parts of Palestine more attacks killed 12 Jews and 15 Arabs.
