And here are some more on my great country!
1. It's the only country where 61% are against the security strip but only 12% know what it is.
2. It's probably the only country where the unemployed go on strikes.
3. It's the only country where the "Cross country Highway" is shorter than half its length.
4. "Ben Gurion 2000 International Airport" was opened at the end of 2004.
5. It's probably the only country where (Goverment related):
- A 101 year old Rabbi starts a new (parliament) party.
- There are two ministers of treasury, and they're both pennyless.
- The prime minister cannot be a defense minister, by the decision of a national comitee
- The opposition forgot to run a candidate for mayor in its capital city.
- Congress members who chose the right to be silent, can't keep their mouth shut.
6. It's the only country where Missiles from Iraq Landed, Katyushas (rockets) from Lebanon, Suicide bombers from Gaza and bombshells from Syria, and still a 3-room appartment costs like in Paris.
7. It's the only place where the Israeli typical meal consists of: Arabian Salad, Romanian Kebab, Iraqi Pita (Bread) and Bavarian Cream... We must like anti-Semitic foods.
8. It's probably the only country where the man in the open shirt with the spot is the minister, and man beside him, in the suit and tie, is his driver.
9. It's probably the only country you leave home at 18 (to the army) but you keep living there until you're 24.
10. It's probably the only place where you can get a shuttle-flying-software, but you need to wait a week to get your washing machine repaired... and if at it, it's probably the only place the time unit "(I'll be there to fix the washing machine) between 10:00 and 18:00"
11. It's probably the only place where in every first date you ask the girl where she was in the army
12. and it's probably the only place where she: Outranks you and/or in a better fighting unit than you were.
13. It's by far the only place where, in the week of passover, McDonalds sell Hamburger with cheese (which is not kosher) in a kosher-for-passover Bun. (and it's considered torture to describe the taste of the kosher bun. So y'all have to imagine )
and that's because it's allowed to sell not kosher (thank GOD!!!, not that I am religious ) but there is a law against selling regular bread on the week of passover.
