Talkback
Title: Purim sameach Israel: AM ISRAEL CHAI! Name: AliciaYasmeen City: State:
Thank G-D for Queen Vashti´s disobedience! G-D´s ways are unknown. Her disobedience served a purpose, which we understand now. Here we are some 4000 years later, after Queen Esther, getting ready to celebrate LIFE, our survival, though our existence today, like in Queen Esther´s days, is menaced by the Iranian president Ahmadenijehad: Hamman of today. With humble hearts let´s remember to thank G-D for the Jewish nation having prevailed till today and let us keep in mind, that it is Him, who sustains us and keeps us alive throughout the Ages in the midst of those, who hate us and want our demise. I love you Israel and I rejoice for your existance in our historic Jewish homeland. BARUCH HASHEM! ---- HAG SAMEACH ISRAEL!
