Correct, on all counts. Especially the part where you say that I don't give a damn. I really don't. I suppose that's what makes me such a brilliant appellant lawyer. Trust me, honey -- the "coarseness" goes away before the nine annointed. That's what makes me so good at what I do. It's also what has made me extraordinarily sought after. I mean everything I say. Especially when it comes to my pet passion -- the State of Israel. I'm sorry if you find that rude. And yes, I do not give a damn.

You are in "good" company here . Antisemites say the same thing . Not Jews ? My ancestors , from Poland , came some 20 generations ago from Turkey , that's sure . Maybe that they fled from Spain to Turkey .
63. Historically the great poets were Sephardim
S Judah ,   Jerusalem   (04.28.13)
They were all religious as well. All the great pizmonim and tisbachot were written by them. Think Deror Yikra, Ke Yishmer Hashabat, Im tet Nuly, Shalom La Ben Dodi. La Cha Dodi.Think Ibn Ezra, Shabazi, Ibn Givirol, HaLevi, Alkabetz, Najara and so on. Millions of Jews the world over sing their songs every week and have been doing for hundreds of years. It is unlikely that of the poets chosen to adorn the bank notes,will last the test of time.
64. 62 Charles,Where can one find...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (04.28.13)
ancestors,20 generations upwards. We found only 200 years from Polen till Frankfurt.I think most Polish Jews are from Spain.Am i wrong?Thus are we Sefarad and not Ashkenazi?

In my family there was a "sefer Kodesh' that was given from father to eldest son . Everyone wrote his name and place of residency in this book . My cousin , the daughter of the eldest son , has seen it before the Shoa , and has told it to me . But i will not say that all the ancestors of the Polish Jews came from Turkey . This is about MY family .
66. The new money is a bomb!
Chasha ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (04.28.13)
It should be interesting when everyone is giving change and mixes up the 20 and the 100. DID THEY TEST THESE FOR THE COLOR-BLIND??? for SURE they're going to mess this one up big-time. My money's on it! And the pictures are horrible--they'll scare the kids into not wanting to make any money!

But the problem is that there in fact WERE Mzrahi poets from that era. A quick search through wikipedia shows that. This is why the issue is so painful.

He may well be an antisemite who thought it was a good opportunity. On the internet, people are anonymous.
