Not just Jews but Christians, ....too sad.

These photos were taken in Germany by James Emison Chanslor, an Army Master Sergeant who served in World War II from 1942 until 1945. | |||
Source: Photos courtesy of John Michael Chanslor |
It is a matter of history that when Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower, found the victims of the death camps, he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.
He did this because he said in words to this effect: 'Get
it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere
down the track of history some b *stard will get up and say that this never
happened.'
EDITOR'S NOTE:
The above sentence is not really correct, but it does nothing to negate the reality
of the horror
of these images, or the fact that there are those who make such obscene
claims:
http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/holocaust.asp
This is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how
easily each country is giving in to it.
.....remember, because we cannot let it ever happen again.
Thank you - again -
so much, Norris Sweetie!

- "Acceleration explained.........for the gentlemen":
Good info HOT DIGGITY DOG!!! |
Acceleration
explained......... Ever wonder why a Top Fuel dragster gets a rebuilt engine after each run? Stay with this - even if you aren't a 'car nut', this is stunning. * One Top Fuel dragster
outfitted with a 500 cubic-inch replica Dodge (actually Keith Black,
etc) Hemi engine makes more horsepower (8,000 HP) than the first 4 rows
of cars at NASCAR's Daytona 500. An NHRA Top Fuel Dragster
accelerates quicker than any other land vehicle on earth . . quicker
than a jet fighter plane . . . quicker than the space shuttle....or
snapping your fingers !! |
Thank
you, George!

Maria Merlino's
Top 12 Free Crochet Jewish Themed Patterns for
Hadassah, Hanukkah, Passover, Rosh Hashanah or Bar or Bat Mitzvah
Ceremonies - "When I'm invited
to a
Passover Seder or to a dinner celebrating the eight days of
Hanukkah, or Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, or many of the
observances, I like to bring a crocheted gift. Quick, easy and
thoughtful, the Tehlim, the Jewish book of Psalms, tells us that the
work of our hands will let the graciousness of the Lord to shine upon
us..." NOTE:
The three promised Hazel Furst prayer cap
designs for women seem to have disappeared from the above page, but two
of them can be found here, and they're gorgeous! |
BONUS EASY JEWISH RECIPES:
http://www.easyjewishrecipes.com/chicken-soup-recipe.html - Traditional Jewish Chicken Soup - "The traditional Jewish Chicken Soup Recipe (or 'Jewish penicillin') is often served at holidays and Shabbat and makes a comforting and flavorful addition to any meal. You can replace chicken with turkey meat and enjoy a hearty turkey soup and use up the vegetables that you happen to have on hand in case you have run out of carrots, celery or onions. Prepare the soup as a chicken noodle soup recipe, chicken rice soup, matzo ball soup or as a clear broth - always good."
http://www.easyjewishrecipes.com/sauteed-green-beans.html - Sauteed Green Beans - "Sauteed Green Beans are an easy dish to prepare on the stove. Of course, this leaves you with precious oven space when you need it most for larger meals. This green bean recipe serves a crowd and quantities can be adapted very easily. Green beans are a cinch to prepare and can remain partially cooked on the stove until you are ready to prepare your meal. At family dinners and holidays, Sauteed Green Beans are a handy and healthy recipe option."
http://www.easyjewishrecipes.com/Lemon-Coconut-Loaf.html - Lemon Coconut Loaf - "Lemon Coconut Loaf with cream cheese filling is an excellent loaf recipe from the Land O'Lakes Company, producer of butter and other dairy products in the United States. This recipe is relatively easy to make and looks very appetizing once glazed and set on an attractive serving plate. The cream cheese toasted coconut filling is a wonderful surprise."
FINALLY:
From
www.awordinyoureye.com/childsjokes1stset.html: One day, Emma the teacher is reading out loud to her class the story of Chicken Little. Emma soon reads out the bit where Chicken Little tries to warn the farmer.
“So Chicken Little
went over to the farmer and said, ‘The sky is falling, the sky is
falling.” |
