Rice Notes Time-Change, Concerned About Shabbat Landing Jeopardizing Olmert

.

Commentary;

Condoleezza Rice is very concerned that Ehud Olmert, Tzipy Livni and the rest of their lackies not have their continuance in power jeopardized by a possible Shas departure from the regime which could result from Rice’s plane landing in Israel during Shabbat.

And once again, the Jerusalem Post has registered with dreadfully poor, rank amateurish literary journalism.

A proper writing of the first paragraph of this report would read in one of the following ways;

  • “US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has agreed on Friday to postpone her landing in Tel Aviv by one hour and a half in order not to land during Shabbat.”
  • “US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has agreed to postpone her Saturday landing in Tel Aviv by one hour and a half in order not to land during Shabbat.”

Rice Delays Landing in Israel Because of Shabbat

Full Text;

US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has agreed to postpone her landing in Tel Aviv by one hour and a half on Friday in order not to land during Shabbat.

The Foreign Ministry has asked Rice to postpone her landing after they have realized that since the clocks were taken one hour forward on Friday morning (2 am turned to 3 am) for day light savings, Shabbat will stay a little later.
