Beautiful Rainbow Over Jerusalem

May we be blessed to have peace on earth as this beautiful, G-d given, rainbow symbolizes.

May we continue to be blessed with rain this year. Rain that fell upon Jerusalem before this beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky over the Holiest city in the world.

Shabbat Shalom from the Holyland!

UN's Double Standard for Arab Refugees - MUST READ AND FORWARD ON

UN's Double Standard for Arab Refugees

 
by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) An artist and poetess from the Negev has embarked on a personal campaign to prove that the story on which she was raised – that the Jews stole the land from Palestinians – is untrue.

Yona Levy Grossman, a resident of Moshav Ein HaBesor, located within short-range rocket reach of Hamas terrorists, has begun circulating a slide-show presentation on the internet of late. "For a long time," she told Arutz-7’s Shimon Cohen, “I didn’t know the true story, and was influenced by the Arab lies.” She was finally “tipped off” to the falsehood of the claim that Jews stole Palestinian land by none other than a professor associated with the left-wing camp.

80-90% of Arabs are New Arrivals “He gave a talk in which he said that 80% to 90% of the Arabs living here today have not lived here for many centuries, as they claim, but are new arrivals,” she said. “I then began researching the topic, and I found out that he was right.” She said that the professor asked that she not reveal his name, however.

This is a basic issue that few people know about. The refugee issue is a scam. Please spread this information around to everyone you know. The UN has a double standard and it is not because it cares about the "palestinians". The UN and Arab world treat them as pawns in a protracted struggle against the existence of the State of Israel. These are the facts.
