The Mask of the Marranos

Submitted by: Messianicmiriam, October 4th, 2009 Topic: Education Forums

The creation of the modern state of Israel has awakened many dormant cultural pursuits, perhaps none so dramatic as the discovery of long-lost Jews. Every decade or so, another tribe of supposed descendants of biblical Israel—marked by quirky uses of Jewish symbols, eclectic religious observance, and a smattering of Hebrew prayers—is revealed to have been keeping the flame in some remote area of the world, from Africa to the subcontinent. The repatriation to Israel of members of these remnants of the long Jewish exile—from the Bene Israel of India to the Falasha of Ethiopia and the Lemba of South Africa—has been among the most inspiring aspects of the modern “ingathering of the exiles” that has animated the Zionist idea. 2 comments



Public Schools’ Praise Song: Next Step Praying to Obama?

Submitted by: MarilynLeff, September 29th, 2009 Topic: Education Forums

It began last year in earnest. But, like a virus far worse than H1N1, it is beginning to spread like wildfire amongst the public school indoctrinators formerly known as “teachers.“ The Obama power grab-supported by his adoring adherents-has just about reached the most monumental proportion of all time. And Dictator-in-Chief Obama may have finally reached the apex of his desires; that of replacing God with himself. Recently, at New Jersey’s B. Bernice Youngs Elementary School, not only were second grade students forced to sing a song of praise to Obama (the parents were not notified that this was occurring) but, Obama’s name was substituted for that of Jesus in the accompanying words and music. After repeated calls by a few of the press, the superintendent of the school system-Christopher Manno-is reported to have issued a statement saying that this specific exercise had not been authorized. Sounds to me as if he’s not really concerned.

The Refusal to Recognize Anti Semitism

Submitted by: Honeyleft, September 2nd, 2009 Topic: Community Forums

Blood libels against Jews have been with us from time immemorial. Last week, one occurred in a Swedish tabloid, Aftonbladet, where it was falsely claimed that Israeli troops were murdering Palestinians and harvesting their organs. Rejecting Israeli calls for official condemnation, Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt retorted that freedom of expression had to be protected and that he lacked time to edit "all strange debate contributions [emphasis added]."

The World is a Dangerous Place for Jews

Submitted by: ksas, October 9th, 2008 Topic: Israel Forums

The world has always been a dangerous place in which to be a Jew. The climax of modern era anti-Semitism came during my lifetime in the last century with the Nazi Holocaust, the wholesale effort to kill every Jew, man, woman and child in Europe, with the "Final Solution." It promises to repeat itself if Iran is permitted to obtain nuclear weapons.

Jesus vs. Romans

An interesting Jewish article by a man who was bothered that the "righteous" leader called Jesus for never saying a harsh word about the oppressive Romans. Jesus was quick to judge the Jews and correct their faults and missteps, and yet didn't preach against the cruel ways of the Romans. 1 comment
