Have you guys been following the riots in London? Does it make anyone else nervous to think the Olympics are a year away and if the London police can't even control their own locals how are they prepared to handle the millions of people soon to invade the city? I met a guy traveling who was a paramedic in London and insisted on telling me his theories about a terrorist attack at the London games next summer. Talk about a morbid conversation! I just hope their police force can get their act together. Here's some
photos of the riots if you're not familiar with what's been going on.
In other protest news, earlier this week over 250,000 people gathered in Tel Aviv for yet another demonstration against the rising housing prices. Have you seen photos of Rothschild? While I walk down the street almost every day on my way to work yesterday I finally brought my camera to document the madness. Aside from tents lining the streets, people have brought in couches, televisions, teepees (who has a teepee in Tel Aviv?), and set up mass kitchens and laundry facilities...in the middle of the boulevard! It's been growing for neither six weeks now with no signs of shutting down.
