#3 Probably the politician looked at posted by Jewish Voice for Peace, and assumed it made the post ok, Elmerert Hupens2660. Even more Germans have never met a live Jew than Americans. I can’t tell you how often PTA moms came up to me with questions after we moved to the outer suburbs of Cincinnati — even in Cincinnati, home of Hebrew Union College, the Reform (most liberal) rabbinic seminary, I was their first to talk to. They all were really sweet about it, but these were questions that had haunted them since childhood Sunday school lessons, and they’d never had anyone to ask. Not just outer suburbs in the Midwest, either. Mr. Wife grew up in the city of Lackawanna, on the edge of Buffalo, NY, and he didn’t knowingly meet any of us until he went to university — we talked about it, because at the time he was my first born-again Christian, so we both had lots of questions. ;-)

#5 Going back to France’s Macron, this popped up in the Israel Times liveblog a few minutes ago:

FM: Jerusalem will take ‘legal and diplomatic measures’ over French ban of Israeli firms from defense fair

Foreign Minister Israel Katz says his ministry will take “legal and diplomatic measures” against French President Emmanuel Macron’s decision to bar Israeli companies from presenting at the Euronaval defense exposition in Paris next month.

In a French-language post on X, Katz calls the boycott “an anti-democratic measure that in our eyes is not acceptable, especially between friendly nations.”

“Israel is the only state on the front lines in the fight against the radical Islamic regime, and France, along with the entire Western world, should stand with us – not against us,” says Katz.

An Israeli official tells The Times of Israel that Jerusalem will take the issue to French courts, where they will claim illegal discrimination by Macron.


First the poor man mistook his basic history, now it’ll be day after day of court reports stirring up the colonists, unless he backs down. He may need to rethink his arms sales boycott as well… I believe this is what Heinlein referred to as bad luck.

#6 ^Bad luck is when one of his boyfriends publishes "tell all" book in USA.
