For the first time in my life, I dread to turn on the news... I know no matter what..

[Vesayen]

I know that no matter what, it will make me unhappy.

Eili eili, shelo yigamer l'olam

Hachol v'hayam, rish-rush shel hamayim,

B'rak hashamayim, t'filat haadam.

Hachol v'hayam, rish-rush shel hamayim,

B'rak hashamayim, t'filat haadam.

I'm repeatedly hitting refresh on CNN and CBC to hear of any air crashes.

The BF's flying and with the 3 recent jetliner crashes I'm a bit nervous.

I've no idea what you're talking about, by the way.

[Japher]

probably some jewish thing...

I tried watching the news last night... thank god for Seinfeld reruns.

[Vesayen]

*sigh* I just heard a report how in one of the settlements, they blew the shofar to call everyone into a synagouge... the soldiers came and carried them out.

If Abbas dosen't stop all terrorist acts against Israel in one year, I think carpet bombing the west bank and the gaza strip into sand would be apropriate.

My G-d, My G-d, I pray that these things never end...

The sand, and the sea, the rush of the waters....

The crash of the heavens, the prayer of man...

I think you'll find the spelling is chauffeur

'what goes around comes around'.

'you reap what you sow'.

'do unto others as you would have them do unto you'.

'be kind to your neighbour'.

simple rules of life that when forgotten or ignored cause all the problems.

1000 are moving to Jerusalem.

For Jews to move to Jerusalem isnt so sad a fate, Ves.

I think ves is thinking of those in regard to the govt of Israels acts in removing the settlers.

Yeah, what part of Jerusalem? The stolen part of the West Bank or the Arab quarter? Robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Jesus H Christ, a Jew doesnt even have the right to live in Jerusalem?

you're right jewish hate is as bad as any other. From when i was in Israel it seemed a country full of wide open and stuningly beautiful land(in an arid way). So space should not be an issue for jewish people needing somewhere else to live. I think eveyone will just have to get creative and help them settle in non disputed territory.

And yes it will be hard for both sides to stomache what needs to be done to start to address many of the problems the Israelies have created for themselves(with our help of course ). Still i am confident they can do it and put the dark past behind them and live in peace with the arabs. hate needs to be beaten.

Thanks for the translation, LoTM

And your quote from Tom Paine is very apt.

Damn right
