What is more bizarre?
40 international ‘activists’ planting trees along Route 60 under the banner of Action Aid on behalf of the Arab farmer who would normally have planted those trees himself (Oops! Did I miss ‘Bring 40 International Activists to Work’-Day?)
Or…
Mood 92 (broadcasting from the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan) playing songs lamenting the Babylonian exile of Jews after the destruction of the first Bet Hamikdash?
Well you don’t have to choose. I experienced both today.
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion
For the wicked
Carried us away captivity
Requiring from us a song
How can we sing a song of joy in astrange land
So let the
Words of our mouths
and the meditations of our hearts
be acceptable in Thy sight
here tonight
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion
