Hooters is an enterprise born out of the capitalist world in which you and I thrive. They will have done their homework, and after much political and business consideration, have decided that Israel’s ’shequel’ is worth taking.

It isn’t about the food. I’d like to think that it isn’t about the hooters, it is probably more about the success that all parties will have by being involved in something that they can classify as ‘new’. Capitalism (which I am not opposed to) thrives on peoples perception of value, rather than the truth, and Hooters in Israel ain’t the necessarily the truth.

Peace. Good to talk, and are you going to An Event Apart Seattle? The wife and I are going and it would be good to shoot some s**t?
