Nice Picture, But See The Caption


This picuture was taken yesterday by Rina Castelnuovo for The New York Times.

It seems the New York Times has a certain skill when it comes to blowing captions:
"Orthodox Jews climbed onto an Israeli Army vehicle to bless soldiers patrolling in Gaza on Sunday during the holiday of Sukkot. At least eight Palestinians were killed in the northern Gaza Strip in renewed fighting."

So let's try to give this picture our own caption:
Only in Israel?
The Palm is mightier...?
More proof we're home?

On second thought I think this picture is just fine with no caption at all.
