A Day of Fasting ends for Observant Jews.  

It was Tisha B'av. The day we weep over the Romans destroying our Temple in Jerusalem.  Proudly, observant peacenik Jews can rejoice that we didn't destroy anyone elses' home, place of worship, school, or hospital, today.  May the following days remain as wholly (holy) observed.
Below are some Israeli dissenters we never get to see. When you view the scope of our history who represents the Jewish spirit, these stalwarts or Bebe?  I was there in 2005 when the vote took place on whether or not to give Gaza back.  People had blue ribbons (give it back) or orange ribbons (keep it and the Gaza settlements).  I had a blue ribbon tied to my backpack and caught some heat, and this was a fifty--fifty race down to the line.  So, with 87% in favor of the IDF actions over the past month (Jerusalem Post) these folks are taking a risk for humanity.  Fourteen were arrested by Israeli police. Democracy   is a wonderful thing if fascists are not allowed to run it.
