An Emirati tourist who recently visited Israel posted a video on his social media account documenting the warm welcome he received from Chareidi Jews at the Kosel. A Chassid welcomed the tourist and his Jewish companion to the Kosel and when he heard that the tourist was from Dubai, he greeted him warmly with “Salam Alaikum!” The tourist encouraged his Jewish companion to don tefilin and excitedly filmed and narrated the scene for his followers. He captioned his post: “An Emirati tourist in Israel received a wonderful welcome from the most religious Jews in the holiest place in the world for Jews. They are not like they’re portrayed by the media!”
