It means a lot because it's Central. Maybe it will get us some recognition.

We would like to make this an annual event, and we hope that more language departments will join with us to make this a truly international film festival.

I cannot imagine the US will not find some way to offer some assistance just because it allows them leverage to shape the negotiations to some degree. And more so the Europeans, who would be even less willing to totally cut off aid.

They will be helping us out, because they would have to build a lagoon and treat septic anyway.

Out of us all/ That make rhymes,/ Will you choose/ Sometimes -/ As the winds use/ A crack in a wall/ Or a drain,/ Their joy or their pain/ To whistle through -/ Choose me,/ You English words?

If the EU and US do cut aid there will be a negative effect. If Israel doesn't want to deal with them at all in terms of borders and movement of goods, the economy will stagnate. But as long as they are able to get some funding from the US and the EU and are able to negotiate to some degree with the Israelis and open up these borders then I think [recovery] is possible.
