Israel: Economic Refuge?

Blogging from an airport, quickly:

The numbers in this item are rather small, but apparently there's a rise in the number of Jews immigrating to Israel this year. Countries of origin: France, UK, and the US. Reason for the uptick: economic. It's better in Israel.

The Messiah is almost here.

Michael Oren has the ultimate POSITIVE reason on why to move to Israel - view and listen and enjoy

now here is a man all of whose speeches I admire ever since I followed his book tour for "faith and Fantasy" via iTunes and which I always found and still find substantial and wholly credible in all he says - lucky Israel to be represented by somebody as substantial as him who is free of all pomposity and full of gravitas and/or humour wherever appropriate
