Yishmael, you mean? Well played.

While 'surfing the web' and yes, I am super hip, and no I don't sign autographs I found this:

funny you should mention that, my local jew paper ran an article on JOFA, a few weeks ago, and thought of posting it here for discussion.

I was waiting for Bitya for half the article. She and Miriam always stuck out to me in that story.

Are you going to post Eshet Chayil again?

Did I do that to begin with?

Somebody did. Perhaps it was another thread.

I'll do it this time. Also, I express solidarity with the Hungarian Jewish community.

the 'soldier wife.'

Or 'woman of valor'.

Or 'woman of strength'.

A weird language indeed.

A weird language indeed.

'soldier' = 'strength' / 'valor'

and what's going on in Hungary? I heard there were political upheavals, are people cathartically releasing stress by beating up the Jews again?

It's Biblical Hebrew.

As I sad. Weird language. I love it, though.

This sort of nonsense. I'm at least somewhat happy that for most of the speech the crowd is about as enthusiastic as a closet atheist at a Catholic church. Unfortunately, most studies and media sources assert that Antisemitism is on the rise throughout Europe, and I'm inclined to believe that this resurgence in support for the extreme right is problematic. While I don't generally sympathize with militia or vigilante movements, I would support organizations like the one described in this source. The people should be able to defend themselves, especially if the police are unwilling to do the work.

ah...yeah I heard about the Jobbiks. I'm not ready to worry about them quite yet (I mean, they obviously suck as human beings, but I don't think they are doing the hired goon thing quite yet). Although I do know that Hungary has been experiencing some political tumult and so I was wondering if people started pogroming again.

To my knowledge, pogroms haven't been a problem yet, and, hopefully, reason will reassert itself soon. There have been more isolated attacks on Jews and other minorities, and the sentiments appear especially strong in Eastern Europe, which seems to be making a bid for the title of the Nazi Hellhole of the Western World.

I thought Eastern Europe always was the hellhole of the western world.

that's because it's not really in the 'western world.' too many consonants, not enough vowels.

[Evraim]

Germany tried to steal the spot some years ago, and probably succeeded, at least for a few years. Venezuela also seems intent on making a name for itself as an Antisemitic hellhole, but I still think Eastern Europe as a whole outpaces the Venezuelans in terms of being an Antisemitic hellhole. After all, Venezuela hasn't really been eager to support its Neo-Nazi parties.

They're all pinkos as far as good Americans are concerned.

What?! Women were created to serve their men!

Serve? No. Aid? Yes.

As the man serves as the spiritual leader of his household it is only right that the woman aid the teaching of his children and maintain the household work he can't attend to as well as a cluster of other things that he would otherwise be unable to attend to. Truly the Woman was made to aid the man for he could not do it on his own.

I'm assuming these are Gentile women. No man could survive twelve Jewish wives. Have you met my mother?

As I said to a good friend of mine, I can have as many children as I want, but if the women is not Jewish, none of them will be Jews.
