I spent a summer in Israel (mostly Haifa) a few years ago, and there was
a big bomb scare - it was an organized scientific workshop sort of
thing, and for the last week they didn't let us off campus at all!  I
got the habit of crossing the street whenever I see anything without an
obvious owner.  
Nonetheless, Israel is definitely the most beautiful and interesting
country I've ever been to - I hope I can visit it again at some point.
