The Israeli military units sent to Haiti were fast and effective, saved hundreds of lives and have started returning home.
In Jerusalem, you usually see soldiers carrying a gun, but not always…
Both young men and women in uniform are regularly seen on the streets of Jerusalem
shopping or schlepping back to their base on Sunday morning after a Shabat at home.
On duty and off, some have parents
who live on the other side of the world.
Not all action is life-threatening or serious. This week visitors from Nigeria and the Far East ‘attacked’ a group of young people in uniform going towards the Old City at Jaffa Gate…with cameras!

Wonder if the Goldstone Report made headlines there?
Wish I had a video, perfect flash mob-a huge crowd one minute, everyone lined up and then they were gone!
Quite a sight for these kids.
Lovely photos- showing the positive, vibrant side of our beautiful and very special city. Keep up the good work!
