AVI BINUR: MERCY GATE בָּרוּךְ הַשֵׁם
Roy (Chicky) Arad: Many gather near the Iron Dome battery, around the pretty young blonde exhibiting Israel’s pride and joy. Among them are two Filipino girls and a Filipino guy names Steven, who works with the elderly on Jabotinsky Street. 

||I liked the exhibition very much,|| he says. ||We don’t have such things. It’s a good way to learn about Israel and a good example for the younger generation.|| 

The Israelis are more suspicious. ||Why isn’t there an antenna?|| one of them says crossly. He says he’s an engineer of Elta (a subsidiary of IAI), who came with his children to feel proud. ||It annoys me. The antenna is a world achievement and that you didn’t bring.|| Silence falls all around. We feel cheated. We came all this way and didn’t get an antenna.

Walang ligaya sa lupa na hindi dinilig ng luha.

Filipino Proverb: There is no earthly bliss not watered by tears.

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
