I think our organization(AJC) is Great and everyone must respect us!

]]> Comment on From Jerusalem to Berlin by Jessica http://ajcwire.org/2008/03/17/from-jerusalem-to-berlin/#comment-3582 Jessica Mon, 17 Mar 2008 19:25:10 +0000 http://ajcblog.org/2008/03/17/from-jerusalem-to-berlin/#comment-3582 I love and share your optimism. Kudos to the wonderful and powerful activities of the AJC. It is still, however, extremely difficult to cozy up to anything or anyone German. But I know it MUST be done. I also think that lately, let's say since 2003 or so, Thomas Friedman has become somewhat of a big-mouth. Here you prove that he often makes inaccurate predictions, among them being the destruction of Israel, outcome of the invading Iraq, and how wonderful unbridled "world trade" is...

Some of the more useful sites are: Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy , Committee for Skeptical Inquiry , Seawana.com . I recommend them and others because people who will fall for one kind of nonsense will usually fall for numerous other kinds. Remember that the only lasting cure for bad ideas and false beliefs consists of better ideas and truth. In the famous words of Mark Twain:

I am shocked to realize that I have encountered many of the e-mail hoaxes explicitly mentioned above--from the maliciously false ones about Obama to the rumors about the United Kingdom ceasing to teach about the Holocaust. In recalling HOW I came to receive them, I recognized that Jewish e-mail correspondents, including some that consider themselves righteous and upright members of their community, in particular, right-wing Jewish acquaintances, have spread them. Truly an example of lashon hara! Thank you for this incisive analysis.
