...In reference to a summer trip
Thanks for this. I just read through 16 pages of a wonderful thread.
I'm relatively new here: did your trip ever end up happening?

Hmm... Well, the holy city has gotten many more holes since the last time that thread was posted in...
And probably all the restaurants have gotten new hechsherim.

I can imagine. Currently going through that thread and taking notes, and will revive it shortly.

I can imagine.
I don't really think you can imagine it. They are adding in three train lines. Almost everywhere you go, there is loose gravel, ditches, narrow streets that swerve back and forth, tractors coming in and out of traffic...

Excerpted from my upcoming comedy, "Tzomet Bar V'Chanyon":
Quote
Day 37
The manager arrives at work. Like every other day, he pulls out his survey maps. Let's see, where have we not dug up yet? Oh, that's right, 37-40 on 138-142. Oh, but if we dig there, there won't be anywhere for people to walk. I guess we have to fill 34-37 by 138-141 first.
As soon as the workers arrive, they fill up and pave the hole by 34-37, which they had dug up 14 days earlier. They then proceed to make the new hole as instructed.
Three hours later, a new tractor arrives at the scene. It promptly begins to dig into the freshly paved hole by sections 34-37.
"Hey! What are you doing? I just had that hole filled!"
"Oh, that has nothing to do with us. We're from the electric company..."

Don't change your trip plans because of this. On the contrary - I think it is quite the sight to be seen. :D

I try to stay away from online conversations, but did engage here because it has been on topic, civil, and hopefully educational for all of us. (I have found it helpful)

Same reason we don't clickbait or write about sensationalist stories. We respect your eyeballs, regardless of if it makes business sense.

Click for context.
Good questions, I don’t know.No, I don’t think there is any tzad at all that hostages can be considered a rodef.Rav Yitzchok Zilbershtein has a shiur on the topic of killing human shields, he points out that the problem could potentially be applicable in bombing concentration camps. He bleibs tzarich iyun on both. (Obviously if you don’t know for certain Jews would be killed in the bombings of rails or gas chambers it’s a different shayla.)
