1. inheritors? of whom, of what?
observer   (05.27.10)
Einstein penned the letter on January 3 1954 to the philosopher Eric Gutkind who had sent him a copy of his book Choose Life: The Biblical Call to Revolt. In the letter, he states: "The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this." By the way, the completed field equations of the general theory of relativity were first deduced by David Hilbert, a fact Einstein was forced to acknowledge in 1916, after he had plagiarised them from Hilbert in late 1915. Einstein condemned the Hagannah's attack on Deir Yassin. Einstein dropped down the offered Job of the First President of Israel.
2. The H.U. inherited all Einstein's rights

He condemned the Irgoun [ or etsel ]attaqck on deir yasin . It was condemned by the Jewish agency [ forerunner of the governement ] TOO .It was NOT an Haganah action ! And regarding this offer to become Israel's first president , he answered : i can direct atoms but not people [ not literally his words , but his meaning ]
3. Einstein-Hilbert , to [non]observer
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (05.27.10)
Read the article by John Stachel about the priority . You are , as always , 100% wrong , knowingly and willigly . And , it was not the Haganah in Deir Yasin . Again WRONG .

5. OBSERVER
(05.27.10)
you have been ridiculed. your lack of knowledge is pathetic to the average person. you exhibit the knowledge of a second grader. i think propaganda is more your line rather than any knowledge to speak of. i highly recommend you stick to the field of propaganda because opening your mouth into other fields makes you not only uninformed and stupid, but as one says, it also removes all doubt that you have an once of intelligence, which many doubt. propaganda and wishful thinking does not make facts or reality. if you prefer to live in a fantasy world where fantasy is facts, more strength to you. however, it is a shame that you have to prove to everyone here how baseless and idiotic your "facts" are. have a glass of arak to clear your confused mind my brother, assuming you are one of those ignorant islamists whose hate for anything jewish or israeli clouds his judgement and turns lies into truths. hameed aboughaze, iranian
6. to # 4 , you have not to be here to condemn
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (05.27.10)
and Einstein was also here after 1916 , more than once . So , to be serious and smart , is impossible for you . You can only show your ignorance and stupidity . You are ridiculising yourself , if that's your goal ? no problem for me .
7. Ben Gurion: Deir Yassin massacre indispensable
observer   (05.28.10)
The Haganah leaders admitted that the massacre "disgraced the cause of Jewish fighters and dishonored Jewish arms and the Jewish flag." They played down the fact that their militia had reinforced the terrorists' attack, even though they did not participate in the barbarism and looting during the subsequent "mopping up" operations. They also played down the fact that, in Begin's words, "Deir Yassin was captured with the knowledge of the Haganah and with the approval of its commander" as a part of its "plan for establishing an airfield." Ben Gurion even said: "Arabs throughout the country, induced to believe wild tales of "Irgun butchery," were seized with limitless panic and started to flee for their lives. This mass flight soon developed into a maddened, uncontrollable stampede. The political and economic significance of this development can hardly be overestimated."
