Merchants take on the dollar's dive

At the Rafah bazaar, close to the border between Egypt and the Gaza strip, moneytakers for livestock were quite prescient about the sliding value of various currencies.

The only creature whose price was quoted in American dollars was, you guessed it, the donkey.
