Do Black People Get Fifths Disease

The last letter of Gad Ezra


The last letter of Gad Ezra



Gad Ezra was the nephew of my friend Moshe Salama, youngest child Soli and Rosemary, sister of Moses.
Pesach of 2002, attacks reached their peak, more than hundred people horribly murdered aue nothing for the month of March 2002, including the attack on the Seder night at the Park Hotel in Netanya.
The government can no longer continue the policy of restraint imposed by the Bush administration. The U.S. president wants to rally the moderate Arab countries said since Sept. 11 to intervene in Afghanistan and Iraq. This comes at the cost of Israeli lives sacrificed to the brutality of Palestinian terrorism. To obtain the cooperation of Arab countries, Bush vetoed an Israeli response. But during Passover this year, the Israeli public scolds. The Israeli leadership It can not mitigate the emergency mobilization for a major operation decided by the Sharon government.

Gad Ezra, 23, had just become engaged. He was discharged just a month ago. There is an urgent call in his reserve unit (milouïm) composed of former Golani for Operation Defensive Shield. The boys are sent to Jenin to clean up this nest of snakes. The number of wounded and killed up quickly. Gad, nursing his team ignored the dangers around him and assist his friends hit short. Then he is suffering from a bullet that would prove fatal. It will be decorated for bravery posthumously.
I learned this in real time by my friend Moshe Salama. I remember at the time his family was worried because other nephews of Moses had been mobilized for this operation.
few months later, at the ceremony where the parents received the decoration for Gad Moshe Salama was angry. He then said: "I'm not going to the ceremony because if I had been in the place of my beautiful brother and sister, I would have thrown in the face of the Chief of Staff (Shaul Mofaz) decoration of Gad and I would have said 'that's what you give me for sending him to be killed? All because the minds that you are with the Department of Defense did not have the courage to give the order to raze the camp of Jenin in the terrorist bombing from the air, for fear that nations do not condemn Israel. And you have preferred that the infantry will make them like rabbits in this mess! "
Moshe's anger was not justified. With Gad, there are 22 other soldiers who were killed during this operation. The precautions taken by the General Staff in fielding infantry have not prevented slander of the Jenin massacre spread.

On this day of Yom HaZikaron, Remembrance Day, our thoughts are with all families who lost relatives during the wars of Israel, and Soli and Rosemary arrived in Israel in 1969 After studying at Montpellier, and Viviane Jacques, sister and brother Gad. Today, Soli and Rosemary live in Bat Yam where they hold a pharmacy. In recounting how

Gad Ezra, the nephew of our friend Moshe Salama fell during Operation Defensive Shield 4 April 2002, I was deeply moved by reading his last letter to his fiancée Galit. I could not not translate.

Meir Ben-Hayoun


Dearest Galit

If this letter reaches you, then something happened.

This morning we were informed that the scheduled surgery will be performed today since yesterday with the help of God.
I told you that the operation has been modified and will not be what it was supposed to be at the very beginning. I did not want to cause you worry my dear.

It was very hard not to tell you the truth, but I decided that rather than causing you concern: "One can change a little truth to peace", even for peace of mind a person you love more than anything on earth.
My sweet beloved, I feel the one hand there is nothing else I want to do except be with you, love you, you found a home with a family, but to Moreover, there is nothing I want more than to participate in this operation and carry a big blow to these bastards, so that they can not even think of perpetuating another attack. And they take into account that every time they commit the slightest horror, they hit them where it hurts most and we are ready to pay the price. I am ready for that price.

Be not angry against me, my beloved. In moments like these, the Israeli general feeling must guide us and make us hit the perfidy as if we had no privacy. "In the army of King David, the fighters gave a bill of divorce to their wives before engaging in combat."

My beautiful, I love you so much and my only regret is that you'll be sorry and that I 'm not with you to make you happy. In fact, there is nothing in this world that you deserve more than happiness. For that sweet, I want you happy that you're happy, that you love and you will blossom because you deserve it. I will always watch over you wherever I am and I will ensure that you meet someone who makes you happy more than me.

My darling, remember, everything is for the best and if that is what has been decided by the Master of the world is as it should be. The only thing left to do is accept it with love.

I love you and I will always love you and know that what I always in mind, it's only you in these moments. I am sure that when this happens to me happens to me you're the last person my thoughts will be spent and I'll go away from this world knowing that I am the happiest that could be and thanks to you .

Think you granted me the joy and that you made me the happiest it can be. You made me get to that ultimate happiness before you I could only dream of.

I love you my dear and thank you for all the good and the happiness you have bestowed on me when we were together.

In fact we were not only together when we met. We are always together since before we came into this world and we are still together even after.

Remember this my dear, our souls come from the same root.

"Everything God does is for the better," even that. Where I am, I assure you that this is the most extraordinary place there. I have no pain and am not in pain. The only thing that can hurt me is the sadness of those who remain, you, family and friends. It diffuses my tender: "There is no despair at having, joy must always take over." That's what I want to ask you, even if it is hard. I

know I can ask you this, because I know the joy and happiness that radiate your natural person. Happiness and joy that I love and me so attracted to you when I met you first.

My dear and loving, I love you and I always will. Just assure me that you continue your path and you will not let you win. It is you who will conquer, that's how it should be and it is just so be it.

Love you forever and I will always be with you

Your Gadi

Kidney Stone In Dogs And Surgery

The intern and the employer Semitic


The intern and the employer Semitic



On the eve of Holocaust Day,
we learn that there is 100% increase in antisemitic incidents worldwide in 2009 . I do not know what happens to me, but what kind of information that usually causes me a deep sense of anger this year, it leaves me cold. I will however move me, moreover the eve of Holocaust Day.

After meditation on the rise anti-Semitism over the past ten years, I remember the days of the first Gulf War in early winter of 1991, specifically from an article while in the daily Yedioth Ahronoth .

At that time, like all Israelis, I throw myself on all published papers that I read avidly. In headlines, words and names that recur: the Scuds falling on Tel Aviv, " Nahash TSeF " slogan to confine the shelters, President George Bush (father), General Norman Schwarzkopf The commander of U.S. armed Colin Powell, Saddam Hussein Iraqi Minister of Foreign Affairs Aziz, Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir and so on. Like all reservists, I expect that the mobilization of otherwise not come.

In the daily edition of Yedioth Ahronoth , information that has nothing to do with the conditions of war draws my attention. An information that I have not forgotten until today. It teaches us that one of the pioneers of this newspaper, Dr. Herzl Rosenblum, former editor of Yedioth Ahronoth just died.

Born in 1903 in Kovno in Lithuania, Dr. Herzl Rosenblum died on 1 February 1991 in Tel Aviv.

Kovno is the capital and largest city of Lithuania in the 30's. A young Jew, a Zionist, Herzl Rosenblum has just completed his law studies at university in Vienna. Betar activist and follower of Vladimir Ze'ev Jabotinsky, his activism has made him late to apply for an internship in a law firm. All law firms in Kovno Jews were attacked by Jewish candidates so there's no room for a trainee and more. In the anti-Semitic atmosphere that prevails at the time, Rosenblum is open to all non-Jewish firms. Only the office of a prominent lawyer, member of parliament and known for its Semitism agrees. The young
Rosenblum began working diligently and provide full satisfaction to his employer. The latter, formidable lawyer, notorious anti-Semite and a member of parliament for a nationalist party, was deeply intrigued. The distance and haughty contempt for his young Jewish student dictate not speak to him. But the curiosity of the Lithuanian anti-Semitic leaves him no respite, and finally, he spoke directly to Herzl Rosenblum: "I learned that you belong to a radical Zionist organization. You are not unaware that I am Member of Parliament known for his anti-Semitic pronouncements. How you do that there not deterred from applying for an internship in my office? "
Undaunted, Herzl Rosenblum replied frankly, unthinkable at that time for a junior and in addition to a Jewish student in a Baltic country "Yes I knew this and I must admit that it does not bother me to do my job the best I can. You see, I hate anti-Semitism at least as much if not more, than they do hate Jews. Therefore, I knew that our co-operating strictly on our legal work and nothing else, what is the best for me. "

Dr. Herzl Rosenblum has been No disruption to the end of his internship training sétait held relatively correctly.

Subsequently, Dr. Rosenblum has worked alongside Vladimir Zeev Jabotinsky. In 1935 he went to Israel to join the Herut party Menachem Begin. The signature of Dr. Herzl Rosenblum is affixed to the Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel. In 1948 he was appointed editor of Yedioth Ahronoth where he signed his columns until 1986.

After World War II, then arrived with the first Holocaust survivors in Israel's history the most atrocious on cooperation in the Baltic countries to the extermination of the Jews, Dr. Rosenblum asked to Kovno from what had been the attitude of his former employer, whose nationalist party had collaborated with the Nazis. The survivors set out warrants to Kovno Rosenblum how this lawyer known for his anti-Semitism had not collaborated with the Nazis. Some even told him how he had tried to alleviate the suffering of the Jews of the ghetto. Dr. Herzl Rosenblum learned later that after the War, with the arrival of the Soviets in the Baltic countries, his former employer had been deprived. As a former member of a nationalist party Baltic fiercely opposed to Bolshevism, the Communist regime oppressed and put into disgrace. He could not do his job as a lawyer and was plunged into abject poverty until his death in the early 50s. Dr. Herzl Rosenblum did his best to make him regularly send money order to soften the plight

Mount Image For Need For Speed Most Wanted'

The soldier, journalist and Pink Panthers


The soldier, journalist and Pink Panthers

Frequent are the days in Israel, where a case shakes them and where they are competing for the record unheard of. But today, Thursday, April 8, it's still a special day where entangled ultimate fiasco.



We only deal with the case Anat Kam that hits the headlines, and whose ramifications are already becoming fundamental problems of dysfunction in Israeli society. This case has been authorized to be disclosed only partially today by military censors.


is a series of gigantic fiasco almost unprecedented in the Military Intelligence (Aman) and only then, a fiasco Internal Security Services (Shabak), a tsunami of this magnitude in other armies, generals are paying with their careers on the field. At other times, they would have done or would commit hara kiri fired a ball into the temple. And that's not all. This case reveals the pot roses, that anyone can break into the offices of the largest oil IDF and consult the material as confidential.


must not lose sight that this case is published only two days after the trial in a military court martial, members of his family and Israeli Arab citizens who managed to enter the office of Chief of General Staff, General Gabriel Ashkenazy and seize material that had been transferred to Hezbollah. Probably this is not alien to the way in which not very elegant, the Minister of Defense Ehud Barak and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu indicated that the appointment of the Chief of Staff Ashkenazy will not be renewed for a additional year at the end of his term.


According to information received by the Director of Interior Security Service (Shabak) Mr. Yuval Diskin at his press conference, Pfc Anat Kam doing his military service in the Office of the Central Region Commander, Major General Yair Naveh, between the years 2005 and 2007. So she flew from the office and burned to CD, more than 2,000 confidential documents some of which were classified "TOP SECRET". Kam motivations for committing these thefts were ideological in nature. Diskin said that to get their hands on these documents is the dream of all the juiciest hostile power.

The Director of Shabak added that these documents were of various kinds: orders covert Command Center and Staff, the army of devices in an emergency, deployment of units, scenarios of engagement, doctrine and tactics many other things. Therefore, disclose such information may seriously endanger soldiers and Israeli civilians.



Anat Kam was only 23 years has copied these documents during his military service and has burned to CD. In the course of 2008, she was sent to the correspondent Uri Blau's daily Haaretz after being offered to other journalists. From this information secret, Uri Blau published chronicles which have been approved by military censors (?!). When finally in the military we woke from a deep sleep after reading these columns and we understood that it was confidential information, the Interior Security Service (Shabak) have been diligent to conduct the investigation.

In September 2009, the Interior Security Service (Shabak) and the daily Haaretz signed an agreement in which Uri Blau was supposed to confidential documents in his possession. In return, the Shabak undertook not to incriminate Uri Blau and do not subject him to interrogation on his sources.

Two months later, in December 2009, Anat Kam was apprehended and questioned, and since she is under house arrest. On January 14, 2010, she was indicted for espionage.

When Interior Security Service (Shabak) have obtained the documents correspondent Haaretz, it turned out he had given them 50 documents that while the security services are convinced it has many others. And the last straw for the Pink Panthers Security Services, Uri Blau was able to fly to London in December 2009 (?!), presumably to avoid being arrested and questioned about the missing documents. And since he is not back in Israel or is about to do. In interviews given to foreign newspapers, Dov Alfon the editor of the Haaretz daily said the newspaper will provide all the needs of its correspondent Uri Blau in exile in England, all the time as necessary. In other words, the daily Haaretz Uri Blau supports and protects against the internal security services and considers this as a case of privacy professional journalistic protection.

The director of Shin Bet, Yuval Diskin warned that disclosure of this matter in public would make a target for Uri Blau elements hostile to Israel, and insinuating that the lives of the latter is now in danger by those who would get their hands on these secret documents.

is a series of major flops, which would make an excellent script for a comedy film-espionage, the main questions that arise are:

1 - How a known known for its ideological complicity with small groups of radical anti-Zionist Israelis, whose commitment is the cantilever and opposes the Israeli military activities against Palestinians, can it move and serve in the Office of the Commander of the Central Region which is the hub and nerve center of IDF operations in Judea and Samaria and not just against the Palestinians?

2 - The fact Anat Kam has managed for two consecutive years to copy an impressive amount of documents and burn them to CD says it was total chaos in the Office of the Commander of the Central Region. It is true that in 2005, Anat Kam committed his crime in the Central Region Command and General Yair Naveh, devoted all their resources and talents to perform in an "elegant" the eviction of Jewish settlers from settlements in northern Samaria, masterpiece of the twilight era of Sharon. We can not be everywhere at once, transforming the faithful patriots of Jewish settlements in northern Samaria to expel opponents, and be alert for subversive elements of Israeli fanatics have infiltrated the very heart of decision-making centers of the military .

3 - A more strange is how the security services after two months of talks with Haaretz and its correspondent Uri Blau did not arrive at Anat Kam until December 2009?

4 - How, after almost a year of investigation, the internal security services still do not know where the missing documents?

5 - The final question at this stage to be followed by many others, is how the daily Haaretz was no problem to publish articles in which secret information was disclosed without being closed or locked up in court date?

How Many Calories Are In A Publix Sub

Descending from the mountain







Descending from the mountain

This morning on Mt Temple, the holiest place in Judaism, were built where the First and Second Temple Jerusalem, the muezzin yelled so loud that throughout Jerusalem, the eternal capital of Israel, we heard the loud calls of "Allah Hua Kbar. I thought that for once, we Israelis should take a lesson from the Swiss) to emulate the Swiss with their referendum on minarets.

On the Temple Mount, pious Arabs praying in his back, kneeling and prostrating themselves in the post with the location of the alleged Holy of Holies. In doing so, they attest to themselves healthy geography of Saudi Arabs - Jerusalem and the Land of Israel, they are only foreigners in transit. In the same way as we Jews were in exile, in transit, sometimes long, North Africa, Poland and France. I wanted to introduce myself

on the Temple Mount, the highest site of Judaism. I wrapped the tallit, the prayer shawl and with tephilin , phylacteries one of which is wound in the arm and the other resting on the top of the forehead. The Israel Police, the police in my country I am proud to be citizens and to hold an identity card and passport, police in the Jewish state for Jews forbade me access Mount temple, while a crowd of tourists around the world with the insignia of crosses and other religious faiths were allowed, equipped with cameras and dress not very consistent with universal standards in places of worship. I protested by invoking my freedom to worship as a Jew in the Land of Israel, Jerusalem, the holiest site of Judaism for more than 3000 years, in vain.

However, this ban would let me consistent if the Place of the Kaaba, the black stone in Mecca, there would be a huge synagogue and would be allowed to enter all except devout Muslims - and if the St. Peter's Square at the Vatican, the only access was prohibited to Catholics thinking. One officer made me realize that if a Jew should get into with tallit and tephilin on the Temple Mount, this could trigger riots in the Arab-Muslims throughout the globe and to escalate into nuclear blast globally, the world's end what. I looked into his eyes with an amused smile and full of bitterness at the same time. He was very serious and certain that there was peace in the world has not he protected by preventing a single Jew, with the terrible weapon of tallit and tephilin to enter in the place which is the culmination of all the hopes and Jewish prayers. Unable to grasp the absurdity of what in other circumstances would have been considered a joke in very bad taste. This Israeli policeman is certainly not a bad guy. As a good servant, it applies strictly to the guidelines of which the ability to understand the historic process unbelievable that we live in Jerusalem is very, very limited.

What is absurd is still a lot of us do not yet understand fully that we are back to the house in Israel, we came back to reconnect with our history and continue, we're back Bet Hamikdash for , the House of Holiness - to this House for which we both wept and prayed, each of which breaks a glass under the wedding day the wedding canopy in order not to forget even the fact The most gratifying life sentence of Bet Hamikdash destroyed by Titus in 70 AD.
Here, on the Temple Mount that will decide the outcome of the conflict between us and the Arab-Muslim world. If we continue to give him the Mt Temple, God forbid, we risk being swept away.

Jerusalem spoken of our sources, the Temple Mt. It is time that we are remembered for real, that it be printed in our hearts, not just wishful pseudo piety pronounced lip. This must be reflected in our actions. This must become the focus of debate in Jewish politics - that our leaders speak out on it to get elected, as Chazal, our Rabbis teach us return to what is essentially the worship of the Torah, ie the instructions on the construction and the cult of the Bet Hamikdash . (Those who doubt need only open their prayer book of Yom Kippur.) That is not vain oath to David, the first king of Israel who reigned in Jerusalem - Psalms (137, 5 )
"If I forget you Jerusalem, may my right hand service."
