      Proposal to Name J'lem Streets after Klein and Moreno


      Jerusalem City Council member Yair Gabbai has proposed that the city name streets after Second Lebanon War heroes Roi Klein of blessed memory and Emanuel Yehudah Moreno of blessed memory. The proposal is scheduled for the agenda of the next meeting of the city's names committee.

      Major Klein saved many soldiers in his outfit by throwing himself on a grenade during the battle of Bint-Jbil, and Lieutenant Colonel Moreno was killed after the cease fire that ended the war went into effect under circumstances that are still subject to censorship.
