I often though to myself that any Jewish Newscaster should have the decency and pride to take the day off on a High Holiday even if they are not religious. It sends the wrong message to non Jews that Jews have no respect for themselves. and if you have no respect for yourself , why should anyone respect you . T.V stations should automatically give them off the day and have them pull duty on Christmas for example . freeing a Christian from coming to work o his or her Holiday. It just doesn’t sit well with Jewish viewers to see Jewish reporter or anchor on High Holiday , plain and simple…end
Everyone Now Knows that Rabbi Meir Kahane was right.. He advocated removal of all Arabs from Israel, nothing more than the Arabs are advocating in the west bank if Israel hand it over to the Palestinian authority, its not to late to reconsider his ideas, the world body really doesn’t care about Israels plight or possible ill fate,they could care less, there will be outcry at the U.N, everyone will yell for a week then its done -over ended with . Israel should take an extreme right wing approach to this matter and quickly before Iranian missiles becomes an exact science …
The Arabs seem to feel that they have cart blanch when it comes to throwing rocks , Molotov Cocktails .rockets at Policeman and into Jewish Towns and jurisdictions , guess what its no different than anywhere else in the world , you get your head broken, only Israel has to answer for its actions in the world arena. Just let the Arabs try to throw a rock at a cop anywhere in the world an see what happens .This is just another double standard that Israel must indure, now to be charged with War crimes is the ultimate Chutzpah Israel should leave the U.N. after all what do they benefit for just getting a brow beating and going threw the gauntlet of Jewish hatred, They benift nothing

Back in 1880 when Jews where arriving By thousands from Eastern Europe to the Holy Land , they should have considered Yiddish as The National Language instead of Hebrew, I’m almost 100% certain that many immigrants bound for America and other shores would have opted for Israel had that been the case, After WW11 Yiddish was discouraged Israeli soldiers , they would harass and reprimand new immigrants and admonish them to peak Hebrew only, it was a major mistake a good deal of American pre WW1 immigrants would have settled in Isreal and their grown children would most properly followed. so be the case , it is what it is today. I feel its to late at this juncture in time , It was a major blunder after all Hebrew wasn’t spoken at the fall of Judea , Aramaic was ,so much for tradition. end
I remember my parents speaking Yiddish,as a secret language so I didn’t know what they were speaking about, They always had to throw in an English word in and for the moment ,lost the secrecy of their conversation, I’m in my 60′s now. Yiddish a language rich in culture and literature, ” The Mamaloshen” a mother tongue that served the Jews of Eastern and central Europe well for nearly 1000 years put to death by a selfish self serving generation of Jewish Parents who were more interested in the preserving the privacy of their conversation than their Culture. They are not the only ones to shoulder the blame for destroying a culture. The modern state Israel shares some blame as well. When the Jews where coming in from Europe after world war two. soldiers harassed those openly speaking Yiddish and were reminded to speak Hebrew. The Government supplied paper for newspapers and wouldn’t supply paper for Yiddish Publications, Paper for Yiddish daily s had to be bought onBlack market and was whatever color that was available,it was not unusual to see news papers with red color paper for Yiddish publications.If Israel had made Yiddish the national language ,I can only imagine how many pre wwII immigrants to America would have packed up and left America for Israel in 1949. I ‘m upset when my Yiddish pronunciation is being corrected in shul, its not right .There is a Rabbi in the Fort Lauderdale Florida area, thats says in his advertisement”I use the old fashioned Ashkenazic Pronunciation and get you out in less than an hour so you can take your wife to the mall or kid to the little league”.I like that .
If There is ever a give back in the West Bank, or anywhere in any capacity, the Jewish settlements must stay. why can an Arab live any where in Israel yet Jews are not permitted residency in Arab nations , these settlements must not be plowed over and handed over regardless of The U.S. or World outcry, they must be increased each and time the world nations chime in against Israel and not frozen , and be off the table for any future talks look whats going on in Gaza, any summit held by the U.S must not be a rerun of the Camp David talks where Jimmy Carter clearly sided with Sadat. apparently the American Jewish voting block takes a back seat to Arab thought in this matter, how sad that the U.S is taking an appeasement stance on this matter..

The Obama administration is forgetting the Long U.S. commitment to Israel,and on the eve of the peace talks , one has to ponder is Israel going to get a fair shake at the peace table. The Arabs wouldn’t want Israel to exist if it was 1square inch,
Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is on a world tour with the tab picked up by Uncle Sam, reviewing the tapes of Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf speech he is no moderate not by far . When I hear a Jew sticking up for the Mosque I say what schmucks , your making a fools of yourselves and fostering more hatred. As we speak Hamas has all but taken over all of Lebanon and the Imam doesn’t speak out against it , as we pull our troops out of Iraq, we now have a major sore spot in Lebanon, Hamas supports the Mosque at Ground Zero. Newt Gingrich was chastised for his remark that you don’t build a Nazi monument by the Holocaust Museum I say he was right on the money and should be hailed for the remark.
This issue will cost the democrats big time at the polls . Israel should be getting more respect then it has from the Obama administration than it is getting now..end
