Bloomberg dedicated the station, built with the help of donations from him and other Americans and named for his father, in a ceremony Sunday.
Meeting with Netanyahu, Bloomberg gave the Israeli leader a U.S. flag and asked him to pass it on to the family of Gilad Schalit, the Israeli soldier freed last week in a prisoner swap with Hamas.
Netanyahu told Bloomberg that Israelis appreciate the “forthright support of the people of New York and the people of America for Schalit’s release.”
Bloomberg said New York’s support for Israel was “strong and unshakable.”
Where exactly is this First Aid Station?
Bloomy! Lo meduvshoch, vlo meuktzoch!
Ye nice PR move but it is just a perfect political stunt. A flag for Shalit?!
Just wondering, what type of “support” does NYC provide to israel.

He probably flew on his private jet, while we riding the crime ridden subways and buses feared for our safety.
Why not dedicate the Hatzalah Garage in willi or BP in honor of he’s mother?
Its the ultimate volunteer org. Of he’s constituents that helped him get the power he has over us!
Are we maybe missing the right people in our comm. To offer him the idea?
