1. Catch the locusts, pull the legs off, dip them
Rivkah   (03.16.13)
in honey after drying or cooking the locusts and sell them to the tourists as an exotic wilderness food that Yohanan the Baptizer (John the Baptist ate). Make a fortune! Advertise the honey-locust treats online and sell them worldwide to those who want to partake of an early Chrisitan treat for the poor.
2. Israel is being invaded by Africanos,
J.K. ,   Brooklyn USA   (03.16.13)
and now also by locusts,what's next ?.for some strange reason the locusts like the Africanos prefer to land in Israel,rather than in Egypt,it seems the pastures are greener in Israel.
3. Clearly these...
Sadiya ,   UK   (03.16.13)
Locusts didn't read the script-they were only supposed to go after the terrorists not Gods chosen people
4. #1. Think BIG Rivkah. Pickle them with vegetables...
Harry Wright ,   UK   (03.16.13)
and sell them to China. Bet you won't be able to meet the demand. Sweet & Sour locusts taste GREAT. Trust me!!!! Just think of the boost that will be to the economy!
5. 4 Harry Wright, UK: Great idea! Move to Israel and get
Rivkah   (03.17.13)
rich on locusts! The '13 Locust Rush like the '49er Gold Rush of the 1800's.

Not so easy to get rid of them after all is it? After the first triomphant attack with pesticides? BTW too many pesticides on crops are not exactly healthy you know
7. BRING BACK DDT!!! That is not toxic to humans or animals
Rivkah   (03.17.13)
but kills parasites and insects.
8. Rivkah, the minute I read this, I thought of you..
Dave ,   capitola, USA   (03.17.13)
and there you were with your comments! What Biblical failure has brought this pestilence to the Israeli people? Also, I've heard these Hoppers are "tasty" when roasted and salted with a little hot sauce but couldn't they also be netted and grounded to make an excellent organic chicken feed? Bless you-Dave in California.
9. It is not as innocent as it seems...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A./ Israel   (03.17.13)
I would not be surprised if it were a Hezbollah plot to destroy our agriculture... All it takes is releasing a few thousand of those pests at the border, and the rest is history...
10. #5. Thanks for the invitation Rivkah but... :-)
Harry Wright ,   UK   (03.17.13)
I'm really too old to move ANYTHING, far less move to Israel to run down locusts. I can suggest though :-) I'll see if my son is interested.
11. The post at No. 9 is not mine.
