You have to read it to believe it. Ynet reported yesterday that “Israel fears sushi shortage after quake.” As Japan faces a nuclear catastrophe and the rest of humanity prays for a safe end to this unfolding disaster, Israelis fear a shortage “in the ingredients of one of their favorite dishes”: Sushi
“There may be a shortage of sushi components, but we are still studying the situation,” says Dudi Afriat of the Rakuto Kasei company, which imports the Kikkoman soy sauce, as well as seaweeds, wasabi, rice and other necessary ingredients for sushi rolls.
I really wanted to believe that this report was a tasteless satire but it wasn’t. It is a real representation of Israeli hedonist, self-centric inhumanity.

One thought on “ISRAEL FERAS SUSHI SHORTAGE AFTER QUAKE”
It appeard in the economy section of the newspaper. Just like there were articles about the effect of the disaster in Japan on economy world-wide. On the stock exchange.
The newspapers in Israel, including Ynet, were full with articles about humanistic point of the disaster in Japan, with the loss of so many lives, and the nuclear catastrophe.
Here are some article from other places in the world focusing on the economical affect:
