Re: I have placed a mirror on my server, located in Israel.

Sorry about that. It was actually working, but our whole hosting machine died. The RAID array failed and dropped dead. I have replaced the hard drive, reinstalled the OS, and the site should be up within a few hours, I guess (as fast as your rsync server will deliver the content :)) Sorry, this was really unexpected :) Please check it out within a few hours... Also if you could make the CNAME (and not add it to the list yet) so I can further test it, it would help me alot. - Thanks.
