(SF novel) East of Nakba (92)
Part I. Israel bombs a nuclear plant in Iran (89)
Chapter 32 Rotating Star of Dabid (2) The top
of the formation dived into the sea (3/4)
Unmanned
fighter that has thrown out its pilot fell down on the sea. Watchers
acknowledged the unfamiliar hexagonal star mark on the body of jet. The scene
caught sailors’ breath.
When
the Israeli jet hit the surface of the sea, it jumped with high splash of water.
The jet stood on its head. Then it upset and slammed into the sea. The
hexagonal star on the body also slowly rotated. The soldiers were at first
annoyed that the star seemed to rotate very smoothly. But they soon realized
why. The accustomed pentagonal star was awkward to rotate. In comparison, a
hexagonal star could rotate smoothly.
They
also recognized that the pentagonal star looked more stable than the hexagonal
one. The pentagonal star had a human figure with outstretched arms and legs. The
star stood on two legs, with its arms outstretched to the side. It kept its
eyes front. A stout pentagonal star showed self-confidence. On the contrary,
the hexagonal star, which was symmetrical both vertically and horizontally,
looked stable at first glance. But the "Star of David" in front of them
rolled on a wave. It slid on the surface of sea and then disappeared from the
sight of the sailors.
