more observations from the USA (Chicago day whatever)
more observations from the USA (Chicago):
* bagels in the USA and bagels in Israel are not the same thing (regardless of quality - they just are not the same thing)
* to answer a previous question, yes, Israel is on people's minds. They make mi shebeirachs and say tehillim daily, they talk about Israel, they have kids who live in Israel, they talk about retiring to Israel or moving in a "few years", some already own apartments in Israel, they have posters of maps of Israel in their homes, etc...
* the religious, and even political fights in Israel are not really relevant here.. people don't seem to care (excluding the fights about major issues like peace and giving land and things on that scale), and that also translates into the lack of major fighting here. Sure communities have friction, but for the most part live and let live seems to still be the overwhelming approach in the Jewish community.
