I've Been Thinking:
As crisis builds in Syria, local Syrians are running toward Israel and toward Jordan.
200,000 Syrians are fleeing to escaping the most awful experience of life in Syria today.
At the Jordanian border Syrian refugees just stood there. And waited. And waited.
They got nothing.
On the Israeli border medical teams came to treat the wounded. They brought tents and clothing and food along with medical supplies.
Ynet news interviewed the refugees. Here is one of their comments. "We saw a very noble stance by the Israeli side, both by the aid that it sent and in its treating of the wounded."
In essence, refugees are running away from Syria and gaining safety and medical treatment in Israel. It breaks all the stereotypes.
Israel cares more about Syrian refugees than their Arab neighbors do.
