I am grateful to the mayor of Ramat Gan for the zebras, but I hope that altruistic organizations with which I am familiar will champion this little zoo so that its animals are housed and fed properly, and that this bright but tiny star of hope will prosper in Gaza. I would gladly help the zoo feed and maintain its current residents if I knew where to send the money, and was assured it would bless this kind endeavour.
