The obsession with watching a news in Israel
posted by Sharon Gilor in Israel forum
Hi Gaelle
You are right the news is everywhere and all the time.
This is because Israel is surrounded by enemies. There were many wars in Israel and the borders are never quiet.
It seems like always something bad has happened or about to happen
I think it is like a Pavlov reaction. Whenever Israelis here the sound of the news coming in they stop talking and listen to the news to make sure nothing bad has happened.
