Today in Tablet Magazine, Mya Guarnieri reports on Israel’s own illegal immigration problem: The 1200 or so “visa babies,” born to illegal migrant workers, whom some hope to expel along with their parents. In his weekly haftorah column, Liel Leibovitz gets into the World Cup spirit. The Scroll will try to muster something like his enthusiasm, too.
