The Word On The Street
"The WORD on the street" is a way for those living in the United States to be connected with those living in the Land. The day's events, politics, pop-culture, family life, maybe even what’s on the dinner menu—all of this and more is likely to be found here. Visit regularly to hear the WORD on the street from our MAs and friends in Israel.

At the moment the talk on the street is especially the Iran issue; that is still in the headlines. This is especially in light of the fact that the world agrees that Iran is not far from a nuclear bomb. This fact adds to the threat on Israel when one considers Ahmedinijad's speech in the UN last week and his direct attack on Israel. The other issue is the fragile economy of the US and its global effects, and of course what it means to us here in Israel.
