I love your writing about Hazorea and that trek up the hill to the place of the Discalced Carmelites. When I was at Hazorea (in 1971 -- Yikes), all the hotzniks piled into buses and were left at the foot of that hill and made the trek up. Not sure I could do it today! Thanks for the memories.

Is it exploitation to offer people jobs?

Do they have an option that would be better for them? (For them, not for us!)

If you could, how would you arrange things better?

I don’t have any answers. The economic disparity, which is worldwide, is just so sad to me. Dubai is full of workers paying fees for being there and doing backbreaking labor. It is something that happens everywhere.
