1The Realities of West Bank Settlements 1 Citation As part of my quest to try to explain the complicated situation of Jewish Israelis who settle in the West Bank, I urge you to read Seth Freedman's article about Bayit Echad in the Guardian. He touches on a very important aspect of the settler experience and reminds us that there are very real and human reasons that they continue to live there. We cannot ask anyone to change without first addressing their concerns. "If we don't make peace, the Middle East will explode", he warns. "We can't live b, technorati.com

1 Citation The postings on this site are my own and don't necessarily represent IBM's positions, strategies or opinions. "Peace in the Home II" Just like I watched " The Bank Job " with Pat a few weeks ago for the sake of shalom bayit (peace in the home), I'm watching " Miller's Crossing " with Pat now. Spoiler Alert: The only good part is John Turturro , but he's being gotten rid of, perhaps, in this scene -- the one compelling one of the movie so far.

The settlements are subsidized by the government to the tune of millions ? the average settlement resident gets more government money in roads, infrastructure, schooling, and tax breaks than citizens inside Israel.

In Nov 2008 Meretz MKs introduced legislation to direct th, technorati.com

Wesleyan/Jewish identity explored after shooting 1 Citation Before his attack on Johanna Justin-Jinich , killer Stephen Morgan made jarring comments in his journal about targeting Jews and Wesleyan students in general, which made an already terrible incident even more unsettling. American Jewish newspaper The Forward explores his conflation of Wesleyan students, Jews, and Justin-Jinich, and talks about Jewish identity at Wesleyan in the wake of the shooting. President Michael Roth and Rabbi David Leipziger Teva were (probably rightly) quick, technorati.com
