Every time you post that sort of link I get a blank page.

Wiki: "In the 19th century and up to World War I, the Ottoman Empire cleared the land of Israel of its natural reserves of pine and oak trees, in order to build railways across the empire. Since it was founded the JNF (Jewish National Fund) has planted in Israel more than 185 million trees creating 280 forests, and still operates today."

The reason the border between the West Bank and Israel is called “the green line”

About the theme from Jaws. "Rarely have six basses, eight celli, four trombones and a tuba held more power over listeners. Especially in a movie theater."
