  1. It is important to note – the conference is for all the strong women who stayed behind after their husbands here, and left them something good so that they will be protected and filled with all the goodness of dance clubs and a Filipina who is on her cell phone all day..
    The lecture and warnings will not reach the weak, tired old people who live in great distress and suffering in the moldy city, where rainwater arrives with the sewage - oh!
    You know who and where.

  2. Every now and then, undead people are discovered who died in their homes and were left there to rot. Deal with the phenomenon.

    • Din Din is a good soul.
      The visiting and present media members love to do the talking, and he comes, at the expense of "someone".

  3. A blessed thing,
    We will all be happy for the results on the ground,
    However, other things are very disturbing to all residents of the city,
    Like increased enforcement, which is not at all noticeable,
    Especially:
    1. Dog feces on sidewalks and paths.
    2. Vandalism and mischief in public parks and bus stops, and in public places.
    3. Parking vehicles on the sidewalks!!!
    4. Real concern and fear among all residents, especially from drug addicts, who are only being added to the city more and more.

  4. 🙏Congratulations to the "Haifa Municipality" and the "Israel Police" for their mobilization & caring for the public of "senior citizens" in the "State of Israel"…!!!@

    😍Activity for the "veterans of the land", who studied and educated & enlisted in the IDF & worked for decades and contributed their skills/talents/professionalism to the general public: young and old in "Israeli society" in all kinds of "areas of life" = vital, important and extremely welcome!!! 🙏
    *The message is always: "Donate & be donated"…!!!@😭
