ROOM WITH A VIEW...

While much of the world feels the pinch of a housing crunch, all signs point to a continued increase in demand for real estate in Israel. Many buyers are from places such as Mexico City, Panama, and Europe, just in case they need it as an “insurance policy” given the increased anti-semitism in these places. There are also a good number of non-Jews from many different countries who are buying property in Israel. In recent years, a large number of Chinese Christians have purchased homes for reasons other than an investment opportunity. Many have donated the homes to provide housing for Israeli soldiers whose families are overseas.

IT'S KROK TONIGHT, BABE!

Krokodil is a flesh-eating drug, popular in Russia and Eastern Europe and used as a cheaper alternative to heroin and it has now surfaced in the U.S. Hey, let's get some of this into us tonight, babe! Can humans be the thickest form of life on planet earth?

I RECOMMEND THE SEA TROUT, PROF!

Peter Higgs discovered he had won the Nobel Prize in Physics - God particle and all that - when a woman stopped her car in the street and called to congratulate him. The retired theoretical physicist who worked and lives in Edinburgh, Scotland had been out enjoying his lunch of soup, draught beer and sea trout. A good choice, Prof!

Which means that it's still a big bloody mystery;
and my lunch and I are made of the same stuff!

KING OF THE KOP?

A well known pro-Israel activist Aryeh King, is running for Jerusalem city council in the upcoming elections, representing Jerusalem’s periphery neighborhoods, including the one he lives in. So what? The thing is, he could get most of the Arab vote! King said that most of the Jerusalem’s Arabs want to remain under Israeli sovereignty and that his party “United Jerusalem” will fight to make sure it stays that way. Middle East politics is never anything the Yanks or Europe will ever understand!

IT'S PRIZE GIVING TIME!

And the Nobel Peace Prize goes to...well given that they have handed out this gong to the likes of Obama, Arafat and the European Union it should be no surprise that they got it very wrong once again! Anyone who has listened to Malala Yousafzai knows to whom the award should have gone.

LOST TO ZION...

In a recent poll, 2/3rds of Israelis think Obama pathetic and don't trust him. In the U.S. 75% of the Jewish vote went to Obama. Like slicing salami, year by year Israel is becoming increasing irrelevant to them according to a recent Pew poll. The majority have never visited Israel and are well on the way to become yet another lost tribe. Ironically, over the past 30 years, support for Israel from Christian communities world wide has dramatically increased and has never been stronger, as a recent conference in Jerusalem with 1,300 delegates showed. It is estimated there are now around 100 million pro-Israel Christians from various denominations.
