Near Jerusalem the almond trees are starting to bloom. Of course, Jerusalem is further south than we are and their season will be slightly more advanced than us here in the north. We are still where we should be for a March first-month, HOWEVER, we wait for the wild barley to be aviv, this is THE SIGN of the Chodesh HaAvivNear Jerusalem the almond trees are starting to bloom.

Right on time these beauties are showing up on the land. First comes anemones, then comes the almond blooms. Almonds bloom about 30 days before the barley starts to turn aviv.Right on time these beauties are showing up on the land. First comes anemones, then comes the almond blooms.

Last night an Israeli fighter jet struck a target in Gaza. It is being said that this is the first time a fighter jets was used against Hamas.

Secondary explosions were heard at the time of the strike as a weapons cache was destroyed in the tunnel that was blown up..

The attack was very cleverly made running along the fuel line than ran underground between Gaza and Israel, right under the Kerem Shalom checkpoint.

It was definately an attack tunnel and it had been used, it could have been catastrophic with very many casulties.

The options of Hamas attacking Israel are being cut down all the time and they must be feeling desperate about their chances of attacking Israel.Updated Jan 14, 2018, 8:02 AM
