Al Eleh Ani Bochiya

I am sick and tired of reading about the Lebanese displaced. Every single media outlet reports how many hundreds of thousands of Lebanese have been displaced from their homes. But what about the Israeli displaced? How come no one reports about them? There are over 350,000 Israelis who have been displaced from their homes. By us in Bet Shemesh there are hundreds of families sleeping in local schools and community centers who can't work and don't hav enough money and clothes. How come no one reports about them?

I got really annoyed after seeing this cute map that MSNBC has posted showing locations of the Lebanese displayed. And look who provided the map, the Lebanese government and the UN. The only article that I have seen talking about Israeli displaced was this one in NY Times. Seriously, what’s wrong with the world?

It’s the night of Tisha B’Av and “about these I cry”.
