(galia)
> <wayyiqtol> is independent,

don't you love the moabit intro:

`omri melex israel vaye`anev et moav ...
omri king of israel and he subdued moav ...

it's lovely, classic, on line, vayyiqtol, "independent"
and still with a topicalization, forcibly pre-clausal, and yes, rare.

what more could we ask for?
