Bob Simon on The Middle East Conflict

myrna — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 20:45:24 +0000

On a Charlie Rose interview last night, Bob Simon's view is chillingly honest. He speaks about Gaza, the West Bank, the 'settlements' and the politics involved. How to solve this problem is contingent on…the settlers? compassion? sharing? trust? This has to be a serious Tikkun Olam!

Caught in Mumbai Terror

A Florida family(Dr Luis Allen, his wife Maxine and 2 children) was in the Taj Mahal hotel in Mumbai when terrorists attacked. They want to tell their story for a reason. "Just like we don't want the world to judge us based on the fringes, those that exist on the fringes of our society.

Why Is Life So Difficult? Tracing the Soul's Journey

The Mumbai massacre of Rabbi Gavriel and Rivka Holtzberg and many other innocent souls has touched a chord, shaking up people all over the world in an unprecedented manner. We are shocked and stunned: How can such a thing happen? A young couple committed their lives to helping others, moved away from the comfort of their families and communities to serve in a distant land. Why and how can they have been murdered so brutally?! Leaving a 2 year-old orphan, shattered families and the rest of us all shaking our heads. And for what purpose? Not money, power or envy.
