British Press Attacks Wealthy Jews with "Classical" Accusations
Antisemitism is back in the press. The image taken from
antisemitic British literature of the scheming Jewish money-
man climbing the social rungs and falling down is beginning
to reappear in the press and political circles in London.
Vaadas HaRabbonim LeMaan Kedushas HaShabbos has made clear
that the public should disregard the misleading information
disseminated in the general media on an arrangement with El-
Al, and rather should rely solely on official Vaadas
HaRabbonim notices in Yated Ne'eman and
Hamodia. So far no agreement has been signed with the
airline.
After publicizing a list of stores which have joined its
inspection program, Vaadas Hapikuach Lechanuyos activists
made a round of visits to gedolei Yisroel and Bnei
Brak rabbonim.
The battle waged by Jerusalem Mayor Rabbi Uri Lupoliansky to
allow the city to set up chareidi kindergartens in Ramat
Eshkol has finally reached a conclusion. In response to a
petition filed by a small group of residents opposing the
Mayor's decision, this week District Court Judge Yehudit Tzur
announced she does not see any flaw in the decision to set up
the Eitz Hadaas kindergarten in the neighborhood and advised
the petitioners to retract their petition.
Following the Kaan Beiti project in which the Constructing
and Housing Ministry allowed public housing tenants purchase
their apartments at discounts of up to 85 percent, chareidi
philanthropists from the US have agreed to assist bnei
Torah and kollel families living in these
apartments and eligible to purchase them at special
prices.
The government unanimously approved a decision in principle
on Sunday to transfer special funding to cover Chinuch Atzmai
budget deficits in order to allow the educational network to
maintain its operations around the country.
The Conference of Chareidi Elected Officials in Local
Authorities opened Tuesday afternoon at the Nir Etzion
Hotel.
Jerusalem to Set Up Administration to Improve Look of
Geulah Jerusalem Mayor Rabbi Uri Lupoliansky has instructed
municipality officials to set up a special administration to
make improvements in the Geulah area of Yerushalayim,
including signs for businesses on Rechov Malchei Yisroel. The
administration will also assess the possibility of assistance
in paying for new signs.
Internal Security Minister Avi Dichter said that he would
work during the next few weeks to arrange free access to
Kever Rochel in Bethlehem without the need for armored buses.
Dichter issued his pledge during a meeting with MKs from
HaIchud HaLeumi-NRP.
Bikur Cholim's Active Maternity Ward Bikur Cholim Hospital ended 2006 with a record of 4148
births. Its previous record was 3,900 births.
Several Letters to the Editor on Ritalin
More on the issue of Ritalin
Recently the subject of Ritalin has been dealt with again by
Yated, in both feature articles and Letters to the
Editor. As a parent of a child being treated by Ritalin, I
was sorry to read the conclusion reached by one of the letter
writers, as if the truth lies somewhere in the middle ground,
between the supporters of Ritalin and its opponents.
