nd. I am finding that the most Godly, Good, Humane group of size that I see on earth I see are our Muslim brothers and sisters... despite all odds they have withstood the onslaught of our corrupt western culture so rife with greed and self-centeredness. This is a finding that greatly surprises me. I also find that the most extremely Humane, Good people on earth, the small handful, are Jews, like this young woman, Jewish Voice for Peace, Norman Finkelstein, Noam Chomsky, Gideon Levy, Amira Haas, Max Blumenthal, Glenn Greenwald, Henry Seigman, Heidi Epsteain, Hajo Meyer, Israel Shahak, the Israeli Refuseniks, Breaking the Silence..... Unimaginable Humanity. I find the most evil on earth the Judeo / Christian white fundamentalists - christians in the US and jews (zionists) in Israel and the US - F'ing Sociopaths, Clinically, and they are about to destroy everything because they have no serious opposition.

***** nd. To my critics, young and old, tired of my incessant calls to total devotion, sacrifice, to the global neediest, NOW, regardless of personal cost: Fact - You are sacrificing one million times more by NOT waging this Revolution, the Only Revolution, 100% Lived Solidarity with the Global Neediest, the only True Revolution that has ever been possible. This is The Revolution that can, that could have, Saved a Future for you. No? Really? What good is whatever 'normal' next 5 years you are counting on, if the 'future' after that as a US democracy, a planet, in unstoppable death-throws... for you, and every young person ever in your life?

***** MUST READ... "my own long-term reaction to the Holocaust has led me not to focus on anti-Semitism and Jewish security (although neither can be ignored) but on the values and teaching that I see as central to Judaism. Justice, Compassion, Humility, individual and collective Responsibility. These are not new lessons but very old ones. As a Jew, I choose to apply these to our relationship with the Palestinian people because this is the issue on which we must judge ourselves. In the 21st century this is ‘the Jewish question’... While a growing number of Jews both in Israel and around the world share this perspective, it is still a minority opinion. When it comes to the Palestinian people, the Holocaust has hardened our hearts and closed our minds. The scale of our own suffering has made us blind to their suffering – which we see as all of their own making....Perhaps this was inevitable. Why should a people abused and broken become saints? The opposite result is more often the outcome. I am asking for too much. Expecting something that no group is capable of. - See more at: http://mondoweiss.net/2015/01/auschwitz-revisited#sthash.d1NkFQKE.dpuf

*****Israel has no right to be an apartheid state, says Boycott From Within founder

***** A recent experience: A Homeless cell-mate of mine, Peter, I'll call him, mid 50's clean off probation since 2008, has EVERY DAY placed numerious applicaitons for work (sh*t jobs mopping floors, anything) for 8 months now. Breaks my heart. I've watched him. Two churches come to the shelter every weekend. I told a man in each of Peter's need for work. One said, "Tell him about Jesus." The other one said, "Tell him to see me and I'll see what I can do." In effect, one said 'Tell him about Jesus,' the other said, in effect, 'Bring him to me, I'll SHOW him about Jesus.' Which one is the man of God? (Subsequently the 2nd man began producing 'real' opportunities for Peter, giving Peter his phone number (he is a mid level computer executive), staying in regular phone contact TO Peter. Peters begins his new job at a nursing home next week.)

***** Dear Rabbi Greyber,My name is Katya and I am a Jewish young professional and newcomer to Durham. I came to Beth El for the High Holidays... we can, should and must talk about Palestine as well.

Qur'an: They say: "Become Jews or become Christians, and find the right way." Say: "No. We follow the way of Abraham the upright, who was not an idolater." Say: "We believe in God and what has been sent down to us, and what had been revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and their progeny, and that which was given to Moses and Christ, and to all other prophets by the Lord. We make no distinction among them, and we submit to Him."

nd. Qur'an (pretty scary, right? hehehehe): "Fulfil your devotional obligations and pay the zakat. And what you send ahead of good you will find with God, for He sees all that you do ill. And they say: "None will go to Paradise but the Jews and the Christians;" but this is only wishful thinking. Say: "Bring the proof if you are truthful." Only he who surrenders to God with all his heart and also does good, will find his reward with his Lord, and will have no fear or regret. The Jews say: "The Christians are not right," and the Christians say: "The Jews are in the wrong;" yet both read the Scriptures; and this is what the unread had said too. God alone will judge between them in their differences on the Day of Reckoning."

***** nd. From the Qur'an, which I am beginning to read, with periodic advice and consultation from a Muslim friend who I respect: "Surely the believers and the Jews, Nazareans and the Sabians, whoever believes in God and the Last Day, and whosoever does right, shall have his reward with his Lord and will neither have fear nor regret." She tells me that nowhere else in the Qur'an is this contradicted. To which I told her: "That is the God, Good, that I know, more than the 'christian' god that I was taught, and much more than the Zionist god, the Right Wing god, that is really Satan." This is the God of Jesus, who I Revere above all, and try to follow.
