Israel flag generates interest in old building
Michael Giannini hadn't hardly gotten off the ladder after putting Israel's flag on his 1908 church building for sale in Spirit Lake when the first curious onlooker arrived. "She asked who did that and why," Giannini said. "When I told her that I love Israel and its people, she smiled in support. It's not a political thing. It's a simple 'I love you.'" Giannini hung the flag on the former Catholic church two weeks ago and wrote words of support for America and Israel on the side of the aged building. It has drawn photos and widespread comments on social media with the most common question being, "Why?" Giannini confirmed one report that, at one point, the building drew buying interest from an Aryan Nation member/Brian Walker, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.
