If it is, do you think it should be used as a place from which to launch rockets at civilians?
(Video of terrorists preparing a rocket launcher and then covering it up...in the middle of a cemetery.)
If it isn't, I assume the world will not complain when we blow it up...
A blog about Israel - the real Israel you won't read about in the international media. It's about the day in, day out things people in Israel do. The media would have you believe a different Israel exists. My answer - THIS is Israel.

A Beautiful Video of Israel
A beautiful video of our love for Israel - amazing photos - not the many colors of the berets on the soldiers - so many units, one love. Israel

To the Far Reaches
Have you ever been to Mt. Hermon? I've seen it from the distance but only climbed (drove) up once. It's amazingly far from most areas of Israel - far to the north, in the north of the Golan Heights and it towers above the rest of Israel.
Security-wise, it is a vital element of Israel's defense. Atop Mt. Hermon, it is very cold, freezing...much of the year. An amazing organization, Yashar Lachayal (www.yasharlachayal.org) delivered Purim gifts (shlach manot) to the combat soldiers stationed there. They say a picture speaks a thousand words - this one does!

They say a picture speaks a thousand words - this one does!
And the amazing part is that all donations - every shekel or dollar donated, goes directly to the soldiers to buy them warm clothes, treats like the ones you see above, even basketball courts to give them exercise and fun during their off hours. They focus on combat soldiers, needy soldiers (buying them ovens, refrigerators, whatever they need) and on lone soldiers (visiting them, helping them, sending them special gifts).
What these soldiers give to Israel cannot be measured. What Yashar Lachayal gives to the soldiers is a measure of comfort and thanks for their hard work. And what the soldiers give back to Yashar Lachayal and all those who donate to this worthy cause - can be seen in the smiles, the many letters thanking them for their tireless work. You can learn more about Yashar Lachayal and their amazing work on their website and you can follow them on Facebook!
