 Abbas Makes Clear His Vision for 'Peace'
While members of
the international community focus on the establishment of a Palestinian state,
believing it will bring about true peace and prosperity, the Palestinian
leadership's own vision for peace is often ignored. But insiders say that a
careful look at what Palestinian President Abbas envisions as peace makes it
apparent that the Palestinian leadership is seeking Israel's destruction,
instead of peaceful coexistence with the Jewish state.
"We have
frankly said, and always will say: If there is an independent Palestinian state
with Jerusalem as its capital, we won't agree to the presence of one Israeli in
it," Abbas says.

 Tasigli: Israeli Products for Everyone!
It is our great pleasure to introduce you to Tasigli. In Hebrew, "Tasigli"
means "please get for me". Tasigli is an Israeli personal shopping
agency, serving global customers looking to locate and purchase unique, high
quality and even simple Israeli products. Tasigli was founded in 2012 by
Jonathan Yuval and Ben Grinberg, two friends who are still serving as high
ranking officers in the IDF reserve forces.
"We travel the world on business, and often find ourselves carrying loads
of Israeli goods for our friends and family around the world" says
Jonathan. "We love our friends and family abroad, but sometimes it's just
too heavy to carry, the flight operator's rules became strict and it's not that
simple to take heavy loads on board anymore. I knew I had to find a
solution."

Tourists Flock to Israel in 2013
Between January and June 2013, tourism reached a record high in Israel, as 1.7 million visitors came to the Holy Land. This figure was 1 percent higher than the same six month period in 2012.
Viewing the influx of foreign visitors as “an essential engine for economic growth that creates new jobs in the periphery,” Tourism Minister Uzi Landau added that he hopes the numbers will climb still higher and pledges to “continue our work in growing the number of visitors to Israel and realizing the tourism potential.”

Iranian Citizens Increasingly Support Peace with Israel
Contrary to mainstream media reports, momentum for peaceful relations with the State of Israel is building among the Iranian people.
“I think there are many Iranians who live for the day that Iran has diplomatic relations with Israel,” says Mhyar Shams Ahmadi, who was born in Tehran 28 years ago but now lives in Toronto.
“In my view, if you just look at relations between Iran and Israel, it is clear that it is in fact the ruling regime in Iran that is preventing diplomatic relations.”
