Hey Split, have you read this? This boy and his family must be some of those 'disloyal to their country' Jews you keep whining on about (Ref. article 'UK's next Chief Rabbi Named' under Jewish World)

Google "The (Very) Few, the Proud Letter From Brentwood"- Actually his son joined Marines but dad have the same beef with Jewish loyalty and absence in Armed forces I do. I don't like your attitude, if you think you can make me believe that you buy loyalty by donating few bucks you're wrong.

It's wonderful to see something so altruistic from a Bar Mitzvah boy. Too often the 'bar' outweighs the Mitzvah. This time the Mitzvah outweighs the'bar'.
7. #5, split

9. would've been better if he gave it to One Israel Fund
Scott ,   Ramat Gan, Israel   (12.24.12)
or Friends of the IDF. The 75 soldiers that have received help from operation mend are deserving, but we Jews have to look out for each other because no one else will.
