Alex Selsky By Alex Selsky On Jerusalem Day, 55 years after Israels great victory in the Six-Day War and with it the liberation of the Western Wall and the Temple Mount, the state of Israel and the people of Israel won again. Israel defeated its enemies: terrorist organizations and their supporters, critics inside and outside the country, those who try to question our sovereignty and boycott us, those who try to destroy us from near and far, those who still dream, in vain, that we will someday be defeated. We won because we overcame our own fear.

Said he to them: If the halacha agrees with me, let this carob-tree prove it! Thereupon the carob-tree was torn a hundred cubits out of its place. No proof can be brought from a carob-tree, they retorted

To the editor Sincere thanks to the YH-R for courageously editorializing about the dangers of theocracies and then publishing a letter about abortion, noting not all people of faith believe the soul begins at conception. Jewish rabbis disagree with Evangelicals and others who make the poetic praise of Psalm 139 (You knit me together in my mothers womb) into a proof-text for legislating when life begins. Many Jewish scholars understand both the Hebrew Bible and the Talmud to teach the fetus is part of the mother until birth
