I seem to have a problem putting up the pictures i promised the other day. Never mind – it can wait. We’re too involved with what Bibi said to Obama and whether Sara is going to be ignored.
Not me – i think Obama is stronger.
A few days ago a defense of Tel Aviv came out in the Jerusalem Post. As usual whenever I’m quoted, I always think of better things to say afterward, but David Brinn pretty well covered it.
Except that this is a city impossible to cover in one article. Today I was with a guest who mentioned that Tel Aviv reminded her of Miami. Sometimes we say that it is like a caricature of New York. Last week, when we were studying Janus Korczak we learned that he wrote that on his next visit to Israel he wanted to go to the kibbutzim and not the city because Tel Aviv was like a suburb of Warsaw. So there are many facets and limitations to this place, and I love many of them.
