Israeli tourist of the week (2)

Continuing my occasional series, news just in: "Tourist Strips In Protest At Wolf-Whistles" (complete with a photo' of a woman's back. Hmm. We all know what they look like. According to Sergeant Peter Masters of the New Zealand police "She's not an unattractive-looking* lady")

In other news, "Britain has the fifth largest Jewish population in the world"**. According to the BBC, 'secular Jewish women' "have had on average only 1.65 children". From an anecdotal point of view, in my long and boring life, I have only met four avowedly 'secular Jewish women' (isn't that a bit of a contradiction in terms?) who, on average had 2.25 children. So maybe I meet the wrong kind of 'secular Jewish women'?

* That's not just a double-negative but a tautology, I'm afraid. He has jumbled up the terms 'good-looking' and 'attractive'.

** As to who beat us to places 1 to 4, see here.
