Did you notice the two exceptions to the recent announcement from the Israeli National Security Council’s Counter-Terrorism Division?

Refrain from visiting or staying in all Arab countries with the exception of Mauritania and the Comoro Islands.

I find it somewhat surprising that the term Arab instead of Islamic or Muslim is used in the warning. The Mauritanians recognized the State of Israel’s right to exist, but has the Comoros? Wonder if this means that you are more likely to find Israelis vactioning there than other non-Arab vacation spots, or it’s more symbolic and diplomatic in nature?

And how about this for advice:

Do not go to unplanned meetings alone.

Well, of course not. What’s the point of a meeting if it isn’t planned and you’re the only person who shows up? Is that like the sound of one hand clapping? A tree falling in the woods…

Just kidding. :)
