Every Tuesday WUJS Israel participants in Tel-Aviv get together for a siyur (educational field trip) somewhere in the country.  Recently, the siyur took them to the town of Sderot that has become so well known for it's proximity to Gaza and subsequent missile attacks on its civilians.  In a show of solidarity with the people of Sderot the WUJS group spent the day with the Sderot Media Center where they were given a tour of the town and perspective of life in this town that has been in the headlines now for more that 8 years.
