[lbo-talk] Israel demographics?

[Joel Schalit]

there was a piece on the opening of Israel's Aroma cafe chain in New  
York a couple of weeks ago - in the times. the reporter cited the  
city's israeli population at 300,00.
last time i was home, my father's best friend's daughter - who had  
just moved to LA from Tel Aviv - said that a near equal number  
resides in the LA area.
makes sense - every time we go down south to see my wife's family, i  
run into more and more Israelis.
