Another fire in Jaffa
The only thing left is a blackened ancient room, located underneath Jaffa's old city gate, just behind the clock tower. The owner died a few years ago and it is unclear who owns the place today.The official story is that the place had become a storage room for all kinds of things.
The street tells a different story: the place was in use by gamblers.
Who knows, in Jaffa anything can be true.

Hello, my name is Lydia Sizer and I am working on a thesis through Brown University in the United States looking at blogs. I am looking at how blogs affect mutual understanding among people of different ethnic backgrounds and I was wondering if you would be willing to take a survey I have prepared for my research. This research would give you a voice in determining whether blogs would be useful in aiding global security and counteracting racism. If you are interested, don't hesitate to email me at Lydia_Sizer@brown.edu. Thank you so much for your time. For convenience, please enter "thesis survey" as the subject of your email as I will not know who is writing to me. Thanks again! In addition, you will receive an email later from lscello@aol.com. This is because my school email is routed through my home email. Thanks!
