We shall always do our best to verify the accuracy of all items in these IOP newsletters/reports wherever possible [e.g. we often suspect that names of people and places that we see in the PMG sitreps could be typos; also the translation into English seems rather odd ~ but since we, sadly, do not speak Arabic, we have no alternative but to copy and paste these names from the PMG sitreps!] – please forgive us for any errors or omissions – Leslie and Marian.

YAWN!
I think that we should feel sorry for Gaby. He/she has had a terrible loss that has scarred and shrivelled some of her neurons. The fact that morst Jewish people have not suffered a breakdown is an indication of the strength of their beliefs. The rest of us can not hear about it without fear and revulsion especially knowing how malleable the mind is.
When we make some protest against it, even small, of any kind, can we advise on this column please. And that would be encouraging, just that small response. I recently talked to a local Jewish woman and asked her her feelings. Just to be able to do this is a start to consciousness raising.
Sickening condescension from a warbling nobody.
I just comment on you as you appear gaby. At least I keep you alive gaby. It’s seems that you are a disabled person mentally. It is sickening stuff to be faced with isn’t it. I’m amazed that you can read it and not be struck speechless or wordless.
