The Giro d'Italia started today and it's an eye opener.
The opening stages are being held in Israel. From Jerusalem - Haifa - Tel Aviv - Be'er Sheva concluding at Eilat on the Sanai/Saudi border. Considering the close relations between the two nations this was inevitable - but why now?
Italy guaranteed the Israeli National Team's security by holding their games in Sardinia during the intifada. Security must be very tight for this.
