Another Atrocity Against the Jews, and the Truth About it All

As all civilized, reasonable people have been, I was horrified and disgusted by another terrorist murder of Jews in Toulouse, France, including a father and two sons, and a daughter of a head-of-school.  Disgusting, animalistic, inhuman--the adjectives about this despicable act abound to no end.  I have not written about it.  Everyone else has. What is there new to write?  Nothing. This excuse for a human used the 'Palestinian cause' as a reason for his actions.  It doesn't matter what the excuse, this action was unconscionable.  France's president Sarkozy's response:
 "There are beings who have no respect for life. When you grab a little girl to put a bullet in her head, without leaving her any chance, you are a monster. An anti-Semitic monster, but first of all a monster," he said.
 These sub-humans unleash their horrific acts against helpless innocent victims who cannot defend themselves, because of an 'ideology' or some other excuse for their disgusting, irresponsible behavior. HOW DARE THEY TAKE A CHILD'S LIFE?  HOW DARE THEY TAKE A LIFE OF SOMEONE WHO HAS NOT ATTACKED THEM?

It's not as if the Jewish people raise their children to hate others--they don't, unlike the so-called Palestinians who have done so, in schools, educating their children that the Jews are descendants of pigs and monkeys, and in their children's television programming, encouraging them to be "martyrs" and jihadists--don't take my word for it, just check YouTube out for videos.  At best, Israel is presented in such a manner as to deligitimize it's existence.  Perhaps this is not as prevalent as it once was, and I am sure there are errors in texts on both sides.  But Jewish and Israeli culture generally do not teach hatred of others.  Jewish culture promotes learning, acts of kindness, and peace.  Unlike Islam, the so-called "religion of peace," which is anything but.

I'm outraged and disgusted, and so when I saw that one of my friends on Facebook posted a Pat Condell video whose theme was related to the atrocities being perpetrated in the name of something-or-other against the Jews, blah blah blah, I checked back to see if I had ever posted this one before, and couldn't find it. Now, I didn't check my blog too thoroughly; I may have forgotten to label it.  So I'm posting it--maybe again--here (hat tip, Natasha). 

Heed his message.  If you dare.

The Great Debate: Is it Itsy Bitsy, or Inky Dinky, of Spider Fame?

Image
For the better part of a year, I've had an on-again, off-again debate with my D.H. as to the "correct" adjective in the children's finger-play nursery rhyme, "The Itsy-Bitsy Spider" (now you know which one I favor). My D. H. insists that the correct descriptive is "inky dinky," whereas I demur.  I vaguely recollect from my own childhood, either hearing " itsy-bitsy spider ," or even more familiar to me, the description "eency-weency," referring to said spider's miniscule size, yet plucky persistance, and how he (she?) braved the violent rainstorm which "washed it out" after the arduous climb up the water spout, yet doggedly climbed the spout again, after the sun came out and 'dried up all the rain.' Many, if not most of our American nursery rhymes originated on the other side of the pond, in England, for obvious reasons: the American colonists were British in origin, and brought with them the culture an

The End. Is there a Beginning...?

This is my first post back on Tikkun Olam since April 23rd, 2015. It does not feel real. Why is it that we never think we will ever have a JOLT in our lives that will change the entire life course we have been traveling? We continue on, day by day, complacent, even in the face of serious illness--believing that what we are living is the only reality; that it is immutable, that it is PHYSICAL: you can touch it, feel it, and it will continue to be there for you tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow... But it isn't. And it won't.  Because the unthinkable can, and does, happen, in time. To everybody. As it happened to me, almost a year ago, on August 10, 2015, when my DH - Dear Husband, of 46 years, died. I am living in an Alternate Universe. Because the universe in which I was living all my life until now, is gone. I still want to slap myself in the face and wake myself up. It's a dream. A terrible nightmare.  It's a horror movie with a frightening ending, but I will

Some Recent Israeli Accomplishments in her 67 Years: Independence Day 2015

Image
An update to Waze which might nip kidnappings in the bud, a possible cure for Alzheimer's, and water management methods California surely can use - just to mention three, on the occasion of Israel's 67th Independence Day celebrations: Lighting the (Independence Day) Torch of the Future of the World. (What a country; what a people!) Dr. Marta Weinstock-Rosin who invented the memory-improving drug Exelon speaks up about a possible future without Alzheimer's. A short excerpt about Dr. Weinstock-Rosin, below.  In many ways, Exelon, and its inventor, paved new paths in Israeli medicine, and Israeli society. Weinstock-Rosin, who is Orthodox, was born in Vienna and fled with her family to Britain in 1939, narrowly escaping from the Nazis. She came to Israel with her family in 1969, and became a professor at Hebrew University in 1981. In 1983, she became head of the Pharmacology department at the Hebrew University (now part of the Institute for Drug Research) in the Fa
