Those “innocent” palestinians continue to hold onto first place in the Most Likely To Commit Genocide Against Jews category. From Israel Finds Explosive Chemicals Labeled as Sugar in EU Aid to Palestinians: Israel said on Saturday it had seized 6.5 tons of potassium nitrate several weeks ago in bags marked as sugar from a Palestinian truck traveling in the West Bank with EU aid for Gaza. Potassium nitrate can be used to make explosives and to power homemade rockets. I suppose now is as good a time as any to thank the European Union for donating millions to the palestinians,

I very much enjoy reading A Simple Jew, and it’s one of the few blogs that I visit on a regular basis. This morning I stumbled upon this post at A Simple Jew, Used Properly, which is a link to an article on Yeshiva World by Rabbi Avi Shafran provocatively entitled Blogistan. Rabbi Shafran sums up Jblogs as anonymous as well as obnoxious, with personal opinion-diaries which display utter disregard for essential Torah ideals like the requirement to shun lashon hora and hotzo’as shem ra; to show honor for Torah and respect for Torah scholars. The Rabbi also includes that

He also revealed a result of the hijackings the terrorists never intended: Aliyah (Jewish immigration to Israel). “The situation in Jordan then was very similar to what was going on in Gaza just a few months ago, with the Palestinian Authority

Yesterday, 87 countries and international organizations pledged at a one-day conference in Paris $7.4 billion in aid to palestinian Arabs who live on land they stole from Israel during their 100 year-long war against the Jewish people. The United States pledged $555 million for 2008, up from $75 million this year. The European Union, the largest aid donor to the palestinians, pledged $650 million for 2008. Separately, European nations made three-year pledges, including France and Sweden at $300 million each, Britain

To rescue a name is to rescue a life from oblivion. Via Yahoo News: When Bill Connelly heard that the heirs of a collector of Jewish memorial books were cleaning out his library, he rushed to New York and fished dozens of the Yiddish-language volumes out of a municipal trash bin. With their lists of residents from long vanished European communities — sometimes recorded street by street — the books often are all that’s left of entire villages or neighborhoods consumed in the Nazi genocide of World War II. To rescue a name is to rescue a life from oblivion,

Via ArcaMax: A vast archive of 47 million German documents on Nazi Holocaust victims has been opened to the public. Kept in Bad Arolsen, West Germany, miles of shelves contain detailed records of 17.5 million forced laborers, concentration camp victims and political prisoners. Until now the files were used to trace missing persons, reunite families and provide information for compensation claims. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) manages the files. How ironic that the ICRC manages the archives. I find that reprehensible, knowing the history of the International Red Cross’ indefensible bias against the Magen David Adom in
