For shame

Ynet reports: “Israel fears sushi shortage after quake”. Is the newspaper trying to be “The Onion” or is it sounding some real current in Israeli society:

While Japan continues to deal with the aftermath of last Friday’s devastating earthquake and tsunami, and has yet to recover from one of the greatest disasters in its history, Israelis fear a shortage in the ingredients of one of their favorite dishes: Sushi.

Remember when Time magazine did a cover story “Why Israel Doesn’t Care About Peace” (the economy is just too good), Jewish groups said it was anti-Semitic?

Update. I might be singling Israel out. Californians have similar concerns. “Bay Area Sushi Bars Face Daunting Supply Shortages…”
