Citizens of Israel and Iran seek to make 'friends,' not war
JERUSALEM All the rhetoric about a possible war with Iran began to torment Ronny Edry, a 41-year-old graphic designer from Tel Aviv. The former combat paratrooper asked himself, Why would I want to attack Iran? It wasnt so much an idea I had as a desire to react to this crazy thing thats going on, that we are told the Iranians are about to attack us and were organizing to attack them first, and I just wanted to get this out of my system

Some Israelis reach out to Iran amid fears of war
JERUSALEM Ruthie Pliskin didn’t want Israel’s threats of a possible military strike to be the only message her country had for Iran. So the doctoral student from Tel Aviv posted a photo of herself and her cat on Facebook, with a sign in Farsi reading: “We love you, people of Iran.” She says she received enthusiastic responses from Iranians when she posted on an “Israel-Loves-Iran” Facebook page who corrected the sign’s spelling and returned warm wishes. Pliskin is among a small but growing number of Israelis trying to reach out to Iranians, even as Israeli politicians warn with growing frequency and intensity that Israel might strike to halt Tehran’s suspected nuclear weapons program

Barak raises eyebrows with sale of Tel Aviv apartment
JERUSALEM _ Saying he wanted to reconnect with average Israelis, Defense Minister Ehud Barak has sold his posh, high-rise Tel Aviv apartment, which had been a source of public scorn in a country where voters traditionally like to see their leaders living as simply and modestly as they do.

Barak has been struggling with an image problem for years
