War, What Is It Good For? Jewish Sexy-Time.

[mota bhai 2,675]

Undeterred by the conflict, 24 Jews participated in the first ever Jewish National Fund- JDate Singles Trip to Israel. Translation: Jews age 30 to 45 travel to Israel to get it on in the sun, with a side of hummus.

...

The fragile security situation created “an especially fertile ground for meaningful interaction,” (read: fear makes people horny).

As Lori, a participant from New Jersey, pointed out, “Over half of the original group cancelled. On this kind of trip, it can be overwhelming to connect one-on-one in a large group. But touring with a smaller group, with everyone’s emotions running extra high, made it a much more intimate experience.”

Activities on the updated route included “an adventurous jeep ride through the picturesque Golan Heights” — with a two-hour stop at the buffer zone between Israel and Syria and ending at the Golan Heights Winery.

So, why do Jews need such a trip?

“Israel is an excellent backdrop for forming relationships. Exploring history and spirituality in the Jewish homeland can be a very moving experience; sharing this personal experience with like-minded peers often creates immediate and powerful bonds.”

Basically, Jews meeting Jews in the Jewish homeland makes for good Jewish relationships and, down the road, pretty Jewish babies.

Furthermore, Israel’s tapestry of contrasts and contradictions is highly thought-provoking. Participants found themselves exchanging ideas and opinions on a level that the average singles trip often avoids.

Spirited debate makes for passionate conversation. And, well, we know where that leads.
