Regifters
« on: April 08, 2015, 12:16:12 PM »
Can you imagine how it feels when you go out of your way to get a thoughtful nice gift for someone only to see him regift it and give it to someone else, especially someone you don't like?


Now you know how Gd feels when Israeli leaders give up land for a so called peace!!!

If someone says something bad about you, say something nice about them. That way, both of you would be lying.

In your heart you know WE are right and in your guts you know THEY are nuts!

Very interesting analogy Dr Dan...

Unfortunately, from my perspective, it is much much worse because the 'gift' has special significance to the giver.
You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14

Well, I'm putting together a simple analogy that simple logical people could understand...not JTFers of course, but everyone else who is gong ho about Bibi or any Likudnik.

According to the Jewish school of thought Israel is just a deposit that God handed over to the Jews for keeping. They are just keepers and not owners, which actually makes giving it away even worse by Jewish law.
