A Jerusalem hotel has decided to honor the US president's commitment to bring an end to the regime of Saddam Hussein and has temporarily changed its name to the "George W. Bush Hotel" on Tuesday.
A statement released by the former Jerusalem Gold hotel said that in light of Bush's decision to launch the war on Iraq, they were saluting the "leader of the free world."
Hotel owner Ariel Shameda-Doron said that as far as he knows this is the first place in the world to be named after the current US president.
A large sign reading "The George W. Bush Hotel" adorned the front of the building at the entrance to the city.

Please don't take this wrong when I say this, but I think we now know where the next Palestinian terror attack is going to occur. Just an observation.

That was my first thought as well. I hope with the name change that a new heightened security level went with it...

This hotel is located right across the street from the Israel International Convention Centre.

"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man and brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot." --Mark Twain
Kinda reminds me of the 180 the French and some other countries are starting to do now...

This may not be a serious story.
The 18th was Purim in Israel. It is Holloween+April Fools in one. People dress up, there are wild parties, we get plastered... At any rate, there are many fake stroies leaked etc.
