The News on the Israel street
The Nonexistent Tourist Boycott of Israel:
Whatever success that BDS is having in the halls of academia among students is not being matched on the tourist front. May was another all-time record month of tourist arrivals in Israel with 347,000 tourists entering the country bringing to 1.43 million tourists who have come to Israel since January 1.
During the same period last year, 1.15 million tourists came to Israel.
Think about the overall numbers again: an all-time record 347,000 tourists in May, an all-time record 1.43 million tourists for the year, an all-time record 2.18 billion dollars spent.
So much for BDS.
The ultra-orthodox and the IDF:
In the midst of the continuing ugly reports of IDF soldiers being attacked by ultra-orthodox in places like Mea Shearim comes a positive report from the IDF yesterday.
30 new ultra-orthodox paratroopers were inducted into the famed Paratroopers Brigade at the Kotel (Western Wall).

Palestinian Terrorists Attack Throughout Judea, Samaria, and Jerusalem
Your humble servant frequently writes about how he views Israeli citizens living in Judea, Samaria, and Jerusalem as heroic. Why? Because they are subject to continuous Palestinian terror attacks–often in the same places over and over again.
I mention “the same places” because it remains a mystery how the terrorists attack repeatedly with impunity. Occasionally, the IDF is able to thwart attacks, but more often than not, windshields are smashed, cars are caused to crash, cars are set on fire, and numerous Israeli men, women, and children are wounded and killed.
But these people refuse to give up; they refuse to leave their homes; they remain steadfast in their attempt to defend themselves, their homes, and their ancestral home.
Here are a few of the Palestinian terror attacks in the last 48 hours:
