YES! I have been before and would love to go back. Israel is as safe if not safer than a trip to Chicago.
The reason why is that I simply love Israel. It is the land of Yeshua and filled with history.
Once you have been there Israel lives on in your heart and the yearning to go back is strong.
Israel is beautiful with something for everyone--for me it is a pilgrimage of sorts and enough history to keep a history buff like me busy for the rest of my life. |

No, never under this regime.
I would think of it though if the Jewish people start treating the Palestinians as their true landlords and start listening to their wise politicians.
I just do not trust the Jews. They tend to use fake facts only to gain some financial support from the American Jewish-Lobby (16 Billion Dollars per year my friends, that's a lot of money for the stuttering economy that their greedy Wall Street brokers have driven USA today).
I would like to visit a country that people use to have regular jobs, instead everyone being a member of the Jewish Offensive Army Forces.
Peace before tourism is the number one proviso in my book at least.
Furthermore I have to admit that I love being alive.
No sane person would ever visit a country where the oppressed local minority can send a youngster or a vehicle driver against the unaware crowd, killing hundreds of innocent tourist civilians.
Also since I am a Scandinavian citizen the delay and bureaucracy at the airport that sometimes reaches 3 or 4 hours is an unwelcoming factor, to me at least.
That's strictly my personal opinion. I am not saying that you have to abide by me naturally.

I would go, even if I had to pay for it myself. I would love to see Aqsa, and I would love to see the Biblical places, and the history, and even the Jewish synagogues, and pretty much everything about it. I would love to also go to give comfort and my Salaams to the Arabs of Jerusalem and the occupied territories, if I was able to get in there too. I am sure the country is full of history, and beauty, just not peace. I have never said I dislike Jews, I just hate the Israeli governments policies toward Palestine, and the nasty settlers. Otherwise I don't have a problem with them. I just hate injustice toooooo much. |

No, I would not because I want to visit Palestine.
I guess I'll have to wait a couple of months to do that.
Good Question though.

Yes! I would love to go. There so much history there...I would love to see Jerusalem. I want to go next summer/fall. I've been looking at B&B's in Jerusalem...I would like to be in walking distance of all of the main sites. Wailing wall, Dome of the Rock, museums, Church of the Holy Sepulchre...etc. |

I have been offered a free trip next month through Taglit-Birthright, and I'm planning on going and having a great time. Can't wait to see it for myself. |

You buy the ticket and I'll leave the first of the month. I can handle the rest but saving up the cash for a ticket for two is hard these days.
I have wanted to see Israel most of my life but had a family to take care of. Now I have to take a wheel chair and I'm fast running out of time.
I would spend a lot of time visiting old tourist sites and trying to visit digs. Travel the country as well as diving in the Med.
Most of the time I would just watch. I want to see for myself what the people are dealing with everyday not just a few days. I think I could make some good friends there and learn from some bible scholars with a different point of view.
The whole thing would be my greatest experience in traveling an old world that is getting new fast. |

To Jerusalem, yes to offer prayers in Masjid Aqsa, a very blessed place. But just to go to Israel where even American Muslims are subject to detention and verbal abuse,naw! |

No.. simply because if I did, I wouldn't be able to enter certain other countries in the Middle East where my friends live. There are ways (legal) to get around it but too much of a hassle.
All expenses? mm... including minibar, and minimum of $2000 a day for shopping, dining and a VIP protection squad and an APC. At no obligation or cost and anonymity; I might consider it.
If you got killed while you were there as a guest (invited by someone who lives there with all of your expenses paid for), what will your own government say? Your death will certainly have a negative impact on the local community.
I wouldn't want my selfish desires to travel at a worst possible time and my complete ignorance for the current political climate, not even considering that accepting such an offer could have serious consequences and obvious obligations, to cause more deaths on either side. And if others consider my decision to stay out of the area as turning a blind eye on injustice then so be it. |

NO... I have been in entirely too many war zones during my career to deliberately go to one for a vacation |

..LONG LIVE PALESTINE.. (Mina)
|
Yes i'd go to PALESTINE
PALESTINE is an amazing country and Jerusalem is the most beautiful city in the world...
PALESTINE
NOT
ISRAEL
ISRAEL was a result of Zionist terrorism -- PALESTINE still exists in the eyes of the MUSLIMS... For now... Forever!!
So what if the Israelis have banished the Palestinian flag, taken it out, stricken it out of the "World Flags"... WE will still be holding the Palestinian flag high...
ViVa Philistine!!! |

I believe everyone would have to go. If you hate something but never seen it, wouldn't you want to see what you hate? If you like something but had never seen it, wouldn't you want to see what you like. A blind date is better than no date.
BTW check this out......

NEVER.........to go all this way to see lying hypocrites who stole poor Palestinian's land and treat them inhumanly? Nah!
I'll definitely go there the minute all these mad zions plus the army of old farts as their supporters are gone and Palestinians get their land back. DEFINITELY.
Palestine for ever. |

Israel is the land of GOD, I've been there before I'll go again. |
