He's ba-a-a-ck!

Well, it was just a week ago that former Reuters Bureau Chief for Israel and the Palestinian territories Alastair Macdonald waved goodbye telling us that he was stepping down and stepping out:

With one last exit stamp in my passport, I end a three-year reporting assignment in the Holy Land that has been marked by images of frontiers, by a sense of walls going up and fewer and fewer people finding a way through.

But wait!  While Macdonald has had his former title stripped from his Reuters bio, in a feat that can perhaps only be performed in the Holy Land, Macdonald resurrects himself with a story and "Factbox" about the Armenian Quarter of Jerusalem.  Will wonders never cease?

We'll have more about Macdonald's latest piece in a subsequent post.
