Jewish Dating and Marriage,, Consider Judaism.
with Rabbi Asher Meza of BeJewish.org

It would nice if all the Children of Israel would turn back into the foundations, Torah and morals, including the ten missing tribes; in essence, to properly keep the laws. As for conversions, it is not for everyone since it involves the strict adherence to the 613 Laws/Mitzvot given at Mount Sinai. For those non-Jews who feel the inclination for some form of Judaism, there is always the 7 laws of Noah to adhere although it was given to all humanity.

Emotional musical prayer for the return of Gilad Shalit home
Clickweb10 | July 28, 2010

השיר שליט, תפילה מוסיקלית מרגשת להשבת גלעד שליט הביתה. השיר שליט מזכיר את גלעד, כמובן, אך מדבר גם על יהודים נוספים שאנו מצפים שיחזרו אלינו ושאנו ערבים להם.
את השיר מבצע עמרם אדר, (33), נשוי ואב לשלושה ילדים מתגורר במיאמי פלורידה, מתעסק בהשקעות ומדלג בכל העולם בעת שמשמש כזמר עצמאי
בחודשים האחרונים עמרם אדר ביקר בארץ כמה פעמים, האווירה הציבורית סביב הדרישה להשבתו של גלעד, הזיזה בו משהו. אדר החליט לעצור את הפעילות המוסיקלית באולפן ולהתייחד עם העניין שריגש אותו כבר במרחקים: שחרורו של גלעד.
"עלינו לעשות את כל מה שיש בכוחנו על מנת להחזיר את גלעד הביתה", מתפלל עמרם אדר, הזמר שעומד מאחורי יצירה מיוחדת ומרגשת זו

Geert Wilders has pledged to form an international freedom alliance to counter the threat of radical Islam in the west. He has chosen five western nations to spread his message based on the fact that all have high levels of Muslim immigrants, liberal democratic processes and all face Islamic terror threats. He also cited a recent crime study in Germany claiming young Muslim males are more prone to violence than any other immigrant group.
The study said the findings will probably hold up in other countries with high Muslim populations where hardline Muslim clerics wield undue influence over young male followers. The study, based on interviews with 45,000 boys and girls aged 14 to 16, also concluded that male supremacist views and a preference for violent videos and computer games link closely with mosque attendance among the young.

'I have a problem with the Islamic ideology, the Islamic culture, because I feel that the more Islam that we get in our societies, the less freedom that we get," he said recently

TV at Grandpa's House

Bill Clinton, Jonathan Pollard, Gilad Shalit : Dry Bones cartoon.
This is my second grandfatherly cartoon this week.

In this one I stuck a grandchild into Mr. Shuldig's chair. It's the same old-style, over-stuffed, flower-print chair I've been drawing since 1973, but it's the first time I stuck a kid into it. No need to point out that Shuldig's TV is not a flat giant plasma wonder. And it uses "Rabbit Ears".

On February 28, 2001, Dani Naveh, (Israeli Minister without Portfolio) set the record straight about what happened back in 1998. In a speech to the Knesset he officially revealed what Israelis already knew. He said that:
"...The former President of the United States, Bill Clinton, made an explicit commitment to the then-Prime Minister of Israel, Binyamin Netanyahu, to release Jonathan Pollard.

This promise was made prior to the Wye Summit and [again] during the course of the negotiations at Wye... This was not a personal promise made to a particular prime minister... This was a promise made to the State of Israel and to the People of Israel..."

-more

* * *
The Israeli Prime Minister that Clinton duped back then was Bibi Netanyahu ...our current PM! Which is why I was surprised to read the recent news. Here's the item as reported by YNET:

PM asks Bill Clinton to help release Gilad Shalit

Published: July 08, 2010, 20:29

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with former American President Bill Clinton and asked him to help in the efforts to release kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit from Hamas captivity.
Netanyahu noted that Clinton has an international reputation, and recalled the release of two American citizens in North Korea, which was made possible after the former president visited the Communist state."

Michigan - A day trip to Michigan's Makinac Island ended in tragedy for a 73 year old Chicago man and three of his grandchildren this afternoon.

Moshe Menora, of Skokie, IL an experienced pilot, and Chief Executive of Tri-United Management in Chicago, was taking four visiting Israeli grandchildren from Ramat Hasharon on a day trip when his plane malfunctioned and crashed after refueling in St. Ignace, Michigan.

VIN News has confirmed that Menora and his three granddaughters, Rikki Menora, 17, Racheli Menora, 15 and Sara Klein, 17, all died in the crash.

13 year old Yossi Menora was ejected from the plane when it split in half upon impact and suffered serious burns. He is at a downstate burn unit, where he is currently undergoing surgery. His father, who was doing business in Florida at the time of the crash is en route to Chicago.

Airport officials say the plane was taking off just after 5:10 p.m. when it crashed 100 feet off the end of the runway and immediately burst into flames.
Southbound lanes of I-75 at exit 348 were shut down for several hours while crews cleaned-up the crash.

Moshe Menora is survived by his wife Sema, his son Sholom and his daughters Miriam Schreiber and Kelly Klein.

The Menora family has asked the public to please daven for Netanel Yosef ben Simcha Sima.

The Dodd-Frank financial reform bill is soon to be the law of the land. Through the creation of new regulatory bodies overseeing systemic risk and everyday financial services, proponents argue it heralds a new regime governing the provision of financial services across the economy. To understand if the law can usher in a new set of safeguards for consumers and investors alike, it is time to focus on what is exactly in the bill and whether and where the contents hold promise and create potential pitfalls.

Will the law end the growth of firms "too big to fail"? Will it put a stop to the predatory practices of the fringe financial sector serving low- and moderate-income Americans? Will it provide increased access to high-quality and low-cost financial services? Will the bill stifle or stimulate innovation? How will it alter the financial services landscape from Wall Street to Main Street?

Exchange Rate

prisoner exchange : Dry Bones cartoon.
It now seems that in the "10 Russian Spies" caper, Russia made use of British and Irish passports!! According to the Telegraph:
"The case echoes revelations earlier this year in which forged British passports were allegedly used by Israeli agents in the killing of Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai." -more

And this report from Israel National News:

British media coverage of the misuse of British and Irish passports by Israel and Russia shows a hypocritical attitude, a British research organization has found.

"Just Journalism, an independent research group focused on how Israel and Middle East issues are reported in British media, examined news coverage of the Russian spy ring recently nabbed in the United States, which allegedly used British and Irish passports. It compared it to the coverage of the misuse of passports by the Israeli hit team that allegedly killed a terrorist in Dubai earlier in the year.

“In the latter case, expressions of political and media outrage were abundant,” it determined. “In the former, not so much on either front.”

An editorial published on March 24 in The Guardian, after London expelled an Israeli diplomat following the Dubai assassination, proclaimed that the faking of British passports was "the mark of an arrogant nation that has overreached itself." On June 30, an editorial on the Russian espionage case in the same newspaper failed to even mention the alleged use of a forged United Kingdom passport.

The BBC, too, has given “negligible” coverage to the UK passport forgery in its items on the Russian spy affair. “Of the eight articles published on its news website on the subject in the last 24 hours, only three even mention the issue,” Just Journalism reported." -more
