American Friends of Peace Now vs. The Jewish People
Next week, a landmark case goes before the Supreme Court in the United States. Despite the attempts of US Congress to recognize Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel, and the resolutions passed requiring the Embassy of the USA to be moved to Jerusalem…the US State Department refuses to print the word “Israel” when followed by the word “Jerusalem.”
A US Citizen born in Jerusalem will not have his US Report of Birth indicate “Jerusalem, Israel”, rather the country-less, “Jerusalem.” Even sadder, the Obama White House webpage removed all references to “Jerusalem, Israel” and replaced them with the single word, “Jerusalem”.
And now…the “American Friends of Peace Now” have decided to join the fray. They have asked to join the case next week, siding with the US State Department, insisting that Jerusalem NOT be recognized as the capital of Israel.
When the psalmist wrote, “If I forget Jerusalem, let my right hand lose its strength,” I wonder if he ever thought that Jews would be demanding that the Supreme Court of the United States deny the connection between Israel and its capital city, Jerusalem.
I guess there’s a reason they are called, “leftists.”

Gilad comes home: Our neighbors celebrate: Israelis March in Jerusalem
As Gilad comes home and the country unites in thanksgiving that despite his obviously frail state, he is at least able to walk under his own steam and is finally reuniting with his family. Reports now emerge that he needed medical treatment during the helicopter ride to Tel Nof Air base, but he was able to hug his parents and salute Prime Minister Netanyahu. President Shimon Peres issued pardons to the terrorists released in
exchange for Gilad and in his personal note to each one of them, Peres
wrote:The voices of the terror victims and the
deep grief of their families burns all of our hearts. I would like to
note that my decision in this matter to exercise my authority in no way
pardons or forgives these murderers and criminals. I do not forgive and
forget.Meanwhile, my colleague Yishai Fleisher who lives in Maale Hazeitim in eastern Jerusalem, documented the reaction of his Arab neighbors to the release of the first batch of terrorists.

Shalit Release: Choose Life? Whose Life?
Very
distressing to see the singing and dancing going on at the Shalit tent
outside Netanyahu’s office a few blocks away from here as the
announcement that Israel had agreed to release more than a thousand
terrorists, including hundreds who were serving life sentences for
terror attacks such as the Sbarro carnage in Jerusalem in August 2001.The partying is pretty obscene given what is inevitably coming down the
pike…Rejoicing that Gilad’s name will forever be linked with the next
terror attack??
Celebrations at the Shalit tent in Jerusalem last night
What
are the chances that we’ll see another family sitting in exactly the
same position as the Shalits a year from now, now that all these
murderers will be running around free..what exactly is the deterrent now
against more of the same Hamas war crimes?? -

Neighborly relations
It’s a small world around here, given that my brother-in-law just commented on Brian’s Yom Kippur post. But that is Israel, and Jerusalem, in particular. And it takes a village, or a Jerusalem co-op apartment building, as our recent experience with my mother on Erev Yom Kippur, showed us. We were on our way home [...]
