RE: American people are so loving but why whole world hate American govt policies.

from the on-line Dictionary. Jewish interests in American Politics

Over the past century, Jews in Europe and the Americas have traditionally tended towards the political left, and played key roles in the birth of the labor movement as well as socialism. While Diaspora Jews have also been represented in the conservative side of the political spectrum, even politically conservative Jews have tended to support pluralism more consistently than many other elements of the political right.

There are also a number of Jewish secular organizations at the local, national, and international levels. These organizations often play an important part in the Jewish community. Most of the largest groups, such as Hadassah and the United Jewish Communities, have an elected leadership. No one secular group represents the entire Jewish community, and there is often significant internal debate among Jews about the stances these organizations take on affairs dealing with the Jewish community as a whole, such as antisemitism and Israeli policies. In the United States and Canada today, the mainly secular United Jewish Communities (UJC), formerly known as the United Jewish Appeal (UJA), represents over 150 Jewish Federations and 400 independent communities across North America. Every major American city has its local "Jewish Federation", and many have sophisticated community centers and provide services, mainly health care-related. They raise record sums of money for philanthropic and humanitarian causes in North America and Israel. Other organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League, American Jewish Congress, American Jewish Committee, American Israel Public Affairs Committee, Zionist Organization of America, Americans for a safe Israel, B'nai B'rith and Agudath Israel represent different segments of the American Jewish community on a variety of issues.

RE: Questions on Irish travelers.Let your voice be heard !!

I thought that was one of the issues - that all Irish Travelers are on the dole?

RE: Ok ladies small one for you

I like mangos, especially cut up with bananas.

RE: does no one reply on any sites :(

cswelcome all the best to you Hottymatty, I am sure a nice young woman will come your way soon.

RE: sunday thread

here is a little bit of good luck for luck.



RE: American people are so loving but why whole world hate American govt policies.

You left America ages ago - I have lived here for 30 years.


In the real America, not the internet America.

RE: Questions on Irish travelers.Let your voice be heard !!

and I don't know too much about the UK dole system.

I do work in funding programs for the homeless here in Miami - so I understand a little bit about "not in my back yard", "blaming the victim mentality" (it is their fault they are homeless because they want to be) and a host of other attitudes and feelings that stem out of not understanding our fellow human beings.

RE: Vegetarians, Vegans...what would you do?

She might have thought he was joking with his forewarning her. Who actually says I will pay for your meal only if you order and eat what I want you to eat.

It is really stupid on his part to try to dictate his lifestyle choices on her.

He should have found out before her lifestyle and then decide not to invited her on the date with food, if meat eating offended him.

RE: Vegetarians, Vegans...what would you do?

Good poll and I know it is for the men....

However, the general rule of good manners is - if you invite someone to dine with you, you pay - if that is the understanding. Better that you choose a restaurant that only has a vegetarian food. "Conditional dating" is manipulative and controlling. And she would be smart not to date this guy again.

RE: Ok ladies small one for you

coffee good morning Ali! How is did the harvest go?

RE: HAPPY ARMED FORCES DAY !?!?!

makes me cry - thanks Conrad.

RE: Questions on Irish travelers.Let your voice be heard !!

I love Naples Florida - like a little Chicago town transplanted into the tropical south.


Florida is a wonderful place to stay for the winter months.

RE: sunday thread

I need to find someone to clean out my gutters too.

I thought that Tulips grew as ground plants - not a tree?

RE: American people are so loving but why whole world hate American govt policies.

and if it is on the internet and youtube it must be true. rolling on the floor laughing

RE: sunday thread

It is a beautiful sunny 82 degrees. He flew into Denver and drove to......?
Then hiked in around Nymph Lake, Cub Lake, Bear Lake, Alberta Falls, Copeland Falls, Lower Falls, Calypso Cascades, Ouzel Falls or a least a few of the spots that he sent text photos of ....

RE: HAPPY ARMED FORCES DAY !?!?!

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
John McCrae

RE: American people are so loving but why whole world hate American govt policies.

it's a myth in your mind - does NOT exist.

RE: sunday thread

I am glad you asked Pedro. I plan to pick up my friend from the airport later today. He has been out hiking in the American rocky mountain area, and returns to Miami.


For me, here at 10:53 am it has been a usual morning in the CS forums and then lunch, and maybe a walk to the zoo. I live close by.

RE: Facing a Fear

It's a rational one - lucky you are at sea level most times.

RE: Questions on Irish travelers.Let your voice be heard !!

I am sorry you do not see any inherent humor in my sign about the Irish and Drink. It was to make a statement about the apparent rift between Irish Travelers and Irish Settled. Again, humor trips slightly over into ugly truth sometime. My humor missed it's mark.

So go ahead and make fun of the Americans...... I can handle it.

RE: Questions on Irish travelers.Let your voice be heard !!

actually the dog is won the ugliest dog in the world contest - my understanding is it is a loving pet to the family.

I was saying, I have OCD in my compulsion to respond in this thread when I said I would not. As a compulsion. and the dog is an example of an ugly head.

Get it? OCD rears it's ugly head? dunno I thought it was funny.

RE: American people are so loving but why whole world hate American govt policies.

rolling on the floor laughing so funny, you twist parts of facts, string them together into a ludeacrous statement that is so untrue its ridiculous

RE: Facing a Fear

I love flying - of course my father was a Royal Canadian jet pilot.

I often face my fears in the ocean - it is so vast and unknown with large creatures that can sting, or take a bit out of me. So I just suck up the fear and do it anyway.

RE: How Flirty Are You?

lips lips lips lips lips yah, what Skippy said.

RE: American people are so loving but why whole world hate American govt policies.

Listen, I have in all my years here in America never seen nor heard of a "Jewish Lobby". What is that exactly is that, in your opinion? popcorn

RE: Write a word related to the one above.

insults

RE: American people are so loving but why whole world hate American govt policies.

I am thinking you give to much credit to think that anyone or organized body is running the American government. rolling on the floor laughing
