1. #nikkihaley : At the Western Wall. Fifty years to the day after Israeli paratroopers took control of the Western Wall in 1967’s Six Day War, an emotional Haley stood in silence with her hands on the stones in the women’s section at the 2,000-year-old wall. "My life will change after the visit,” she wrote. “It was a blessing to experience a holy
place with spiritual people full of love. May God bless whoever comes to the Western Wall.” She told reporters how moved she was by the reception she received in Israel, but said she was simply telling the truth in defending Israel at the #UN.
2. Israeli nurse: An #Israeli nurse won the ?? of millions (mine included) after she was photographed breastfeeding a Palestinian baby boy whose mother was critically injured in a car accident. #Coexistenceat its best.\
3. Gal Gadot: Simply put, we are all schepping nachas!
4. Tel Aviv Gay Pride Parade: Over 200,000 #Israelisparticipated in the Pride Parade in Tel Aviv earlier today. We are blessed such a parade can exist in our homeland. While it certainly is contentious and polarizing for many its so important we embrace and welcome all. I was particularly dismayed to read earlier in week that a London #Rabbi who preached Inclusivity towards gay people was attacked by members of the Rabbinate and beyond.#GayPrideTelAviv
