I am an Israeli living in NYC. I lost family on October 7th and have Gazan friends. I am not afraid of the student protestors, even if I deeply disagree with some of their stances. What I’m afraid of is a world that sees thousands of children being blown up and says nothing.

We are American Jews. We are in mourning. But today, we are at the Capitol to act. We need leaders in Congress to fight for a #CeasefireNOW. Chuck Schumer, Bernie Sanders, Hakeem Jeffries, and Katherine Clark: that means you. And we’re not leaving your offices until you do.

Shloyml-Boyml last time saved Chanukah. This time the Rebbe in Ștefănești invites Shloyml's band to play for Purim. The Rebbe wants the band to perform a new Purim song on the violin. There's no fiddler in the band. Thus a search for a new fiddler begins. etsy.com/listing/1418021260/…
