Shabbat Shalom

Cartoon: Haaretz

B"H

I don't know about you but I find the cartoon extremely funny.
It show two Toldot Aharon guys pushing one of the famous "demonstration trash cans" and one is asking the other where this goes to. The second Chassid is answering that it first goes to the Gay Parade and then to the parking lot in reference to the two latest demonstration reasons).

Shabbat is coming and the Karta parking lot in Jerusalem will be open again. This means further demonstrations in Mea Shearim and the only problem is the "missing trash cans". All the plastic ones have been burnt and melted down to the ground leaving the Mea Shearim inhabitants with all the garbage smell. Plastic bags full of garbage are laying around in the streets providing a great meal to the rats. Many people say that the municipality shouldn't provide Mea Shearim with new trash cans, as everything is burnt down at least once a year. "Shall they live in their garbage !"

I am not going to any further parking lot demonstrations and I don't have the feeling to miss anything. It looks like the whole situation doesn't lead anywhere and I don't need this kind of action entertainment on Mozzaei Shabbat (Saturday night).

At the moment, I am in "free" Tel Aviv and will later on go to Jerusalem in order to spend the Shabbat there. Tel Aviv is unbelievable hot and humidity is at its peak. Before I am taking the bus I will go to the beach. Getting some nature spirituality before going to the Jerusalem (ghetto). However, the "ghetto" has already arrived at the beach because plenty of young Yeshiva students are traveling there every Friday. Most of them are from Jerusalem and don't think those teenage Haredim go to the religious beach. Oh, no, they take off their clothes and their Kipot and join the secular Sodom & Gomorrha crowd. Before Shabbat, they return to Jerusalem and maybe throw stones on Shabbat. Otherwise life would be too boring.:-)

Have a great Shabbat everyone. "Shabbat Shalom - Gut Schabbes !"
