Jews got creative amid freezing weather

I love cool news from the Jewish world.

Tu BiShvat the New Year of the trees

Tu BiShvat - New Year of the Trees is tomorrow, February 5, 2023. Ancient Jewish holiday for Israelis has become a celebration of the land that is tightly tied to national identity. I'm glad that on this day more and more people appreciate nature and the land of Israel, G-d's given land to the Jews.

Simply amazing painting.

Gouache Painting Study: Silver Spoon anime

Another painting study of an anime background, this time from Silver Spoon. Learned a lot, but still a long way to go.

Tucker's monologue about liberal hypocrisy on Martha's Vineyard off Massachusetts coast. Must watch.

DETROIT (JTA) – Just off Woodward Avenue, the Motor City’s main thoroughfare crowded with high-end shops, sleek office buildings and a luxury hotel, a synagogue with multicolored stained-glass windows anchors a block of frozen-in-time real estate. An Old Detroit relic, it sits in stark contrast to the other heavily developed properties in the downtown corridor of this swiftly changing city.

On this sunny Sunday morning, a Yiddish singer belted out klezmer standards like “Tumbalalaika” and “Shein Vi Di Levone” on the block as a crowd enjoyed ice cream and popcorn. This shtetl in the city will soon see a major development of its own.

It was a special day for Detroit’s Jews: a centennial celebration of the only remaining freestanding synagogue in the city, which doubled as a groundbreaking for an ambitious expansion project. Many of the Jews in attendance at the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue’s block party weren’t even members, but all of them saw the congregation as an important link to Jewish Detroit’s past and future.

“I am so personally excited we made it to this day, hallelujah!” the synagogue’s rabbi, Ariana Silverman, said after reciting the Shehechiyanu prayer (which gives thanks for the moment).

Founded in 1921, the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue is today the last vestige of what, at the time, was a thriving Jewish community in an American industrial boomtown. But the nondenominational synagogue’s leadership is bullish that its best years are still ahead of it. A decade in the making, a $5 million-plus expansion project will turn the four-story building into a Jewish community hub, while accommodating a growing membership base.

US gets more weird everyday.

No, withdrawal did not bring peace, we all knew at the time it's not the land Arabs want but complete destruction of Jewish state. By giving them Gaza Strip Israel only shot herself in the foot. Many years later the foot is still bleeding. It's painful.

Arabs again and again prove that they are heartless, bloodthirsty animals. Read for yourself.

I hope it's not just empty words. Enemies of Jewish state should live elsewhere, there no place for them in Israel. Deportation of hostile elements is the only answer on my opinion.

His heroic actions in war will live forever. RIP Israel's Brigadier General Emi Plant.

Another reason to go to Venice.

"Venice’s ghetto dates from 1516, when the republic forced the growing numbers of Jews into the district where the old foundries, or “geti” as they were known, had been located. The area, which was locked down at night, became what is considered Europe’s first ghetto and remains the hub of Venice’s Jewish community in the Cannaregio area.

"The first synagogue dates from 1528 and was built by German Ashkenazi Jews. Others followed and served different groups, including one for Spanish Sephardic Jews and one for Italian Jews.

"None is visible from the street, as strict rules imposed by Venice’s rulers didn’t allow Jews to practice their faith openly. All the synagogues are hidden away on the top floors of seemingly normal buildings that on the lower levels held cramped living spaces for Jewish families.

"The synagogues have remained operational continuously, except for the years of World War II during the German occupation."

When Arabs fight among themselves I wish both sides a success.

When Great Britain occupied Palestine, they raised villages to the ground from which terrorist came from, I wish Israel be more proactive and do the same.

Wise words.

Unfortunately I believe him. Israel is in bad situation, no other nation has so many rockets pointed at their population as Israel.

OMG! What a headline. "Why sheep were taught to recognise Barack Obama!" For many years I'm wondering the same thing, why two-legged sheep who called themselves democrats were taught by CNN and NBC to recognize Barak Obama as their leader, while the truth is that Barak Obama is worthless shit.
