Despite the appeal of flying First Class in a virtually empty plane for 12 hours, then arriving in a country where the coronavirus and its accompanying paranoia has emptied the streets of 80,000 citizens who are self-quarantined at home and eliminated all visitors from Europe, leaving only Israelis (not that there's anything wrong with them) in face masks who won't shake your hand or come within six feet of you, and with many mosques and churches closed, events cancelled and large gatherings of people outlawed by the government, our group has finally, after much discussion, cancelled our upcoming trip to Israel we have been planning since last July.
This sucks. And for what? The flu? A few coughs and a slight fever? Oh right, it's a WORLDWIDE PANDEMIC!! Luckily it got here just in time to reinvigorate the ratings of all the news shows after the 24/7 drivel about the impeachment ebbed. Hey look -- here's a brand new terrible thing to blame on Donald Trump! (God must be a Democrat.)
