I'm persona non grata on Roni Yeshurun's Tzfat website because I tell the truth about Tzfat, but Arabs from the Emirates are welcome to stay in his guesthouse. Go to the site that zev recommends. Notice that Roni Yeshurun hasn't a clue as to why anyone might be appalled and considers the site "free advertising".
Guess he likes rich Arabs, security compromise and all, better than poor Jews.
The idea that Arabs from the Emirates would come to Tzfat is beyond preposterous, but the fact that he welcomes their custom, in a city that fought tooth and nail and almost fell into Arab hands, is appalling. Anything for a buck.
Yes, there are Jews who sold their Souls for the price of a night's stay in a guesthouse or a cocktail in a nightclub in Tzfat - lots of them, and they'd like to bring back the "heyday" in Tzfat when serious money was made on chilul HaShem.
Yes, there are Jews in Tzfat who would compromise Tzfat's present security and desecrate the memory of those who fell in battle here to liberate the town from Arab hands just to make a buck.
The most galling part of it is if you will check out the ads for the Klezmer festival they use the religious atmosphere and history of Tzfat as a hook.
