Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do

Israel...wow.
One of the best 10 days of my life despite group circles and blind zionism.
The desert is one of the mos6t beautiful places on earth.
I've now swam in the mediterranian sea, the dead sea, and the jordan river. Well, really I rafted down the river and got thrown out of the raft. Oh, and I went into the dead sea with my legs completely cut up. It hurt...alot.
It never rains here, but isn't always as hot as I assumed it would be.
Most of the country is kosher and all but bars in Tel Aviv shut down on shabbat. Pork isn't even allowed to be sold in all of Israel.
Everyone here isn't religous though. By Israel's definition, being a jew is determined by family and ancestry, not what you believe.
Don't drink absinthe straight from the bottle ever. If you do, dont chase it with vodka.
I also made some amazing friends in just 10 days. I really hope we dont lose touch.
In conclusion, go to Israel.
Just a thought: What are your views on the Arab-Israeli conflict?
