KEY POINTS:
Pop diva Madonna and several other top Hollywood celebrities who are fellow Kabbalah practitioners will visit Israel this week during the Jewish new year celebrations.
Madonna, who visited Israel in 2004, was due to arrive today, said Assaf Levi, a spokesman for a Kabbalah centre in Tel Aviv which is sponsoring the visit.
She will reportedly be joined by US actors Ashton Kutcher, his wife, Demi Moore, Rosie O'Donnell, and clothing designer Donna Karan.
Madonna visited Israel three years ago at the height of the Palestinian intifada, telling reporters at the time that she was more worried about paparazzi than suicide bombers.
