We're supposed to be an Am Chacham V'navon and recounting a stupid story like that doesn't quite live up to the hype. I haven't done a shred of research into the story and I'm willing to bet ad chatzi hamalchus that it isn't true. Even if I were to hear it from a soldier himself I would STILL bet all of my material possessions on it being false.<BR/><BR/>The very fact that an intelligent, thoughtful and learned person such as yourself would even CONSIDER repeating such a stupid story with even the SLIGHTEST chshash that it were true should suffice to explain how lesser minds come to create such stories in the first place. <BR/><BR/>Jameel, you're an important member of the movers and shakers for klal yisroel's future, stay sharp.mnuezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328856077944673860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-45633329000406724452009-01-13T00:44:00.000+02:002009-01-13T00:44:00.000+02:00Jameel,Thanks for all your work.

He's the same one who fabricated the story about Doron, the Ethopian Jew in Mercaz Harav washing dishes until he was accepted there to learn. This story was later found to be totally false. I don't know what motivates someone to play with people's emotions like that.<BR/><BR/>See http://haemtza.blogspot.com/2008/04/folly-of-embellishment.html for details about the fabrication.<BR/><BR/>I wouldn't believe that the story about the soldier unless we heard it directly from the soldier. Until then, I'll assume it's false.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-33595449730657036382009-01-12T23:14:00.000+02:002009-01-12T23:14:00.000+02:00I just checked with another person who was there; ...I just checked with another person who was there; he said that there were between one thousand and two thousand.<BR/>I don't know for sure though.Avromihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13593992238707872967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-61631816551441131942009-01-12T23:05:00.000+02:002009-01-12T23:05:00.000+02:00I am rounding up a big contingent for the pro-Isra...I am rounding up a big contingent for the pro-Israel rally this evening at Shaare Zedek synagogue in Tampa, 7 PM (1/12).

Tis from Hamas "Member of Parliament" Fathi Hammad, bragging about the Hamas use of human shields.<BR/><BR/> Fathi Hammad: "[The enemies of Allah] do not know that the Palestinian people has developed its [methods] of death and death-seeking. For the Palestinian people, death has become an industry, at which women excel, and so do all the people living on this land. The elderly excel at this, and so do the mujahideen and the children. This is why they have formed human shields of the women, the children, the elderly, and the mujahideen, in order to challenge the Zionist bombing machine. It is as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: "We desire death like you desire life."the sabrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134516234799909775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-16858705120597012852009-01-12T20:09:00.000+02:002009-01-12T20:09:00.000+02:00Thank you for everything that you all are doing to...Thank you for everything that you all are doing to keep me and the rest of the world informed.
