Moshe Holtzberg Still Says Goodnight to His Parents
Times of India

A Child, On the Street, In the Night
by Bentzion Elisha
Based on a true story.
Laying in bed, fast asleep late Friday night, I hear a man’s voice in our Brooklyn apartment. Drifting between sleep and consciousness, I think I’m dreaming. I hope I’m dreaming. It’s just my wife, our kids and me, in our apartment, or so I thought.
But the voice grows stronger, waking me up. I get up and quietly and walk towards the noise. Suddenly I hear him again. ‘Mr. Klineman, Mr. Klineman…’ Surprisingly, as he called my name, the unexpected voice doesn’t sound threatening at all. Whatever fear I might have had disperses. ‘Mr. Klineman, your son…’ Hearing my son being mentioned, I hasten my walk to the front door which is wide open.

Rebbetzin Chana’s Memoirs: Pesach in Exile
In this 7th installment of the series, Rebbetzin Chana describes her and Reb Levik‘s first Passover in exile. Forced by their Tatar hosts to move out of their home, they moved in with a non-Jewish woman for 50 rubles a month. The room was considered to be “luxury” because it had a floor, but the cots they had to sleep on were infested with roaches.

Which Republican Would Be Best for Israel?
Republican contenders for the 2012 presidential election.
In a November 12th interview with The Algemeiner, ADL National Chairman Abraham Foxman declared that when it comes to positions on Israel, “with the exception of Ron Paul, there is not much difference between the parties.” I cannot imagine how he arrived at this conclusion, as in fact, nothing could be further from the truth.
