No, not Mahna Mahna. Mimouna. Mimouna is a Moroccan celebration of Chametz that takes place right after Pesach ends (which it did tonight). It's become very popular in Israel, especially among political leaders, as participating in a Mimouna makes you more part of the "Amcha" (the every-day folk). It's estimated (according to Wikipedia, at least) […]
