These photos are current as of February 2025 🍀

Meet 📍Tabor Stream Nature Reserve in the Lower Galilee region.
At this time of year, the trail turns completely green, offering stunning views of rolling green hills, all combined with blooming flowers and a flowing stream 🍀

The nature reserve offers a variety of trails and options, including a challenging descent to the stream ...

This song happened to play during that difficult weekend when the Bibas family was returned to Israel a week and a half ago, sadly, no longer among the living. While there's no exact alignment between the song's content (abusive realtionship) and the event, there's something in the music and emotions it conveys that feels intuitively fitting for the moment as it was one of the most successful Israeli rock songs has ever written and probably not by chance that this charged song played on the radio that very weekend when regulary it being played relatively rarely.

Lyrics

How would you tell him, girl?
You said there's nowhere to go
He didn’t know
And you, like the wind, stay silent
And your time
If you only let it, it will slip away
And your time
If you only touch it, it will stay with you
And your time
If you only let it, it will slip away
And your time
If you only touch it, it will stay with you

Chorus
If this is your moment
The circle you're tied to is placed before you
If this is your moment
Then when you leave, the door will open
And no, no, no
He won't forget.

Trust him girl
And you remained supported by his arm
He is into you
and you are in the same rhythm
And your time...

Israel's Eurovision 2025 song is so beautiful and artistic. I love that they added a bit of poetry from the Bible in Hebrew.

מים רבים לא יוכלו לכבות את האהבה ונהרות לא ישטפוה

Which means: many waters cannot quench love, nor can rivers drown it.

It adds such divinity.

What's the point of this thread? Echo chamber for zionists who get super uncomfortable of the truth from the other threads and need to soothe their brainwashing with more brainwashing?

Israelis are not zionists.

Zionists (in your version of the term) are far right sectors within Israelis that occupy key positions in our current corrupt government. 

And then you speak about echo chambers. Don't demonize 10M people without you having even 1% of understanding and familiarity with them and I won't continue this discussion any further under this thread.

10m people that live on soil that doesn't belong to them and requires kicking out indigenous natives
