Richard Branson came to Israel for investor meetings. Upon disembarking form the plane, he kissed the ground of the Holy Land and said "I would have nothing without Ha'Shem"
As an aside, in my younger days I would kiss the ground upon arriving in Israel. Back then one got off the plane on the tarmac and took a bus to the terminal. I always felt funny kissing the cement or tar of the paved tarmac rather than kissing the soil of the Land of Israel. Sometimes I would remember and later kiss soil as well.. I dont know why I stopped but maybe just because I have been here so long and dont travel much...

ReplyDeleteI also used to kiss the tarmac. One time I ended up with something like engine oil all over my face and I never did it again.
