You will stay in the country.

We will fly abroad

The Prime Minister urged Israelis to stay in Israel.

So what was so urgent for the Minister of Tourism to fly to meet with the organizers of the Tour de France?

And that is even before we mentioned the visit of the Minister of Absorption in France.

Tourism Minister Joel Rezbozov flew earlier this week to visit France to meet with the organizers of the most prestigious and important bicycle race in the world: the Tour de France.

The minister, according to publications, wants to bring to Israel a section of the race (the intention is to open it).

As you may recall, a few years ago, the Giro d'Italia race opened in Israel, which gained much publicity around the world.

But it turns out that after the big media noise made by the publication, he did not promote bicycle tourism to Israel.

True, as a cyclist who travels about 5,000 km in a bad year and sometimes double in a good year (no road area), I get excited about everything to do with cycling and I would be very happy to see here the opening of the French bike race. But let me be skeptical about the possibility that it Even if the billionaire Sylvan Adams, who founded and finances the Israeli international cycling group, pours tens of millions of dollars into it, it is his money and he will do what he wants with it.

Is it time to promote tourism in France?

What else?

While the Prime Minister and the heads of the health system call on the people of Israel (who are you and me) not to go abroad, warn us not to make reservations and threaten to close Ben Gurion Airport and isolation when we return to Israel, the Minister of Tourism allows himself to fly abroad If he had flown in a few months, I would still understand. But when he flies on the day the race ends, with a big celebration in the area of ​​Victory Gate and Elysee Boulevard, it smells just one thing: the minister just wanted to be part of the celebration. The former, Prof. Grotto, allowed himself to fly to the Euro 2020 final at Wembley Stadium in London and even ran to tell the company with a slew of photos from the event.

Grotto, by the way, said he went to advise the British.

Well, let it be.

But, if all this is not enough, it turns out that the Minister of Immigration and Absorption, Pnina Temano Sheta (well she flew and did not sail) went on her first visit to France this week at the head of a Jewish Agency delegation.

During the visit, she will meet with the heads of the Jewish community in Paris, with the heads of the OECD, and will hold several more meetings and participate in a number of events.

So what?

How exactly does the Prime Minister of Israel, as well as the Minister of Health and the Minister of Foreign Affairs want the people of Israel (yes, it's you and me) to stay at home while they beep at us and fly for 'work' trips that are really, really urgent and important and without which the State of Israel will not survive?

Question for thought.
