## Resource

We begin with today’s updates from Israel about NY Times allegations, changes in the Israeli election and a second place win for Israel in this year’s Eurovision. Then a special report sponsored by the JNF-USA: 40% of Northern Israel is financially powered by tourism. The last three years have been riddled with war and rockets crashing down over Israel’s borders. Yet artists have not let the curtains close. Join us for news updates followed by an enchanting report as we move through villages in the Western Galilee eating cheeses, tasting wines and being touched by the melting pot of cultures and cuisines.
