lmale, Leah, yes, no doubt whe...a, exactly, thanks<br /><br />lmale, Leah, yes, no doubt whenever Europeans are dissatisfied they will take it out on their Jewish neighbors. Many of the Jews of that area made aliyah in the two previous mass aliyot. Yes, Leah, there's an irony in the timing. The Russian army is what the chareidim are describing the IDF to be. <br />We Jews have one home and it's Israel. It's up to us to make this country better and not by copping out and criticizing from afar.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-3942779170382375092014-03-07T17:57:08.776+02:002014-03-07T17:57:08.776+02:00Batya,
Gut erev shabbos. While I do agree that O...Batya, <br /> Gut erev shabbos. While I do agree that Obama is distracted by the situation in the Ukraine, I also believe he is using it as a further distraction- a distraction to fool more people into thinking he is a leader. A leader with strength would actually be rooting for his country (that he lives in at least) in and is currently ruling) note: I did not say leading and not trying (and succeeding) at destroying it.<br /> It is a distraction for a little while, perhaps. Hopefully this will keep Kerry away...<br /> On another note, there are several hundred thousand Jews in the Ukraine. Rabbaim in Kiev are telling those there to flee to Israel. The other irony is there are those who are being conscripted into the military (or at least to come to sign up via draft) and have come to know that it means no beards and payos; no shabbat; no kosher food and no learning.<br /> My opinion? Another element of the ingathering of the exiles before Moshiach.<br /> Interesting to note that it coincided with the gathering of Jews in Yerushalayim against the draft.... Don't know 100% how to interpret that, yet it is heavy...<br /> I pray there is no two state "solution" "farced" down Israel's throat and that our brothers and sisters in the Ukraine will be safe.<br /> Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00338022892863788418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-28991495232207651132014-03-07T17:38:13.596+02:002014-03-07T17:38:13.596+02:00That is an excellent point in the last part. I men...That is an excellent point in the last part. I mentioned on other sites that when Kerry spoke of Russia going into Ukraine, and brought up ALL the agreements that were violated, that This should be instructive for those negotiating with the Arabs. Those "pieces of paper", agreements, had absolutely no deterrent for Russia's actions. Does anyone believe any agreements for a "two-state" would not result in the same outcome. Only idiots and fools would think otherwise. <br /><br />SharbanoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-49232456859791651582014-03-07T17:05:37.957+02:002014-03-07T17:05:37.957+02:00Batya
