Lights in the Old City of Jerusalem will be turned off before dawn this week so visiting US President George W. Bush can get a better view of the sun rising over its ancient walls.

I initially thought this was a joke...

So what's so fancy about that? Eskom ensures that we get that opportunity on an oft implemented random basis!

"And the main highway leading into Jerusalem from the west - already plagued by traffic problems - will be completely closed in one direction for an hour on Wednesday after Bush arrives to allow the unhindered passage of the convoy containing his hundreds-strong entourage. "

He's worst than the rappers entourage.lol

I have no problem with them closing of the highway, he is an obvious target.

But turning off the lights? I would be seriously annoyed

Bush's lights have been off for some time.

Im rather shocked Israel would be stupid enough to do this for Bush. I know Bush is an albino Mugabe... but the Israeli`s have disappointed me.

'Lights Out'

Bah, thought he had kicked the bucket for a minute there, what a pity.

Especially considering his fundamentalist Christian stand point.

Here's hoping it'll be overcast that week!

Shimon Peres should ask for the same next time he visits the UN in NY

Considering how much $$$ America gives to them each year, I guess he can ask for just about anything there. Aid

Especially considering his fundamentalist Christian stand point.

Don't mean a thing when you are top dogs in governments. It's like an old boys club up there.

You mean his lights are on but there's no one home?

To make the scene more dramatic, the authorities have decided to turn off the lights illuminating the limestone walls before dawn on Thursday and Friday, the spokesperson told reporters.

*sigh*

Oh no is this media fueled hysterics again. Remember the 'mandela' episode, stolen watch and Greenspan oil saga.

Shame

 

[bwana]

Not like he asked for it by the sounds of it either.
