Bird Flu Over the Cuckoos Nest and Other Reflections
by Ellen W. Horowitz

Until a week ago, every time I spotted flocks of migratory birds from my kitchen window in the Golan Heights, I would grab the binoculars and rush the kids outside to watch a spectacular site. Nowadays, when I spot the flocks, I yell “duck”, grab the kids, and race into the house for cover.

That I have 10 chickens running around my backyard adds to my anxiety. I’ve come to like my chickens. If you recall, two years ago Purim, I expressed a different type of chicken anxiety in “One Tough Chicken.” And so every morning, I arise and look out of my window to see if they’re all still alive and well.

Bibi Trying to Form New Government, Prevent Elections

Excerpts:

“The former finance minister has the support of 55 Knesset members from several parties, which according to current polling data are expected to suffer severe losses in the next elections, according to the Hebrew web site NFC and Israel Radio.”

“Besides Knesset members in the Likud who oppose Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, MKs in the National Religious Party, Shas, National Union and United Torah Judaism are backing the move. If Netanyahu succeeds in forming and holding together a coalition, he will become Prime Minister and enable the current Knesset to continue in session until its mandate expires next November.” read more

Decision 2006: Disgruntled Evacuees Seek Revenge

Excerpts:

“Former Gush Katif settlers currently staying in Jerusalem hotel speak of government’s ‘betrayal,’ say voting for Sharon’s Kadima party not an option: ‘Of course I would be happy to see Kadima collapse, but now we are focusing on helping ourselves’”

“Former Neve Dekalim settler Hannah Pikar said, ‘I will vote for whoever did not stab me in the back, if such a person even exists. However, if I do decide to vote, I will base it on past deeds, not on promises for the future. I have learned my lesson.’” read more
