Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard has sent a New Year’s message to the community through J-Wire…
Amen!
To be honest, a very dry, cursory, quite un-inspired , even truncated getting-it-out-of the-way dispatch. What “impressed” me was the sudden refference to Yom Kippur and the very fact that we, the Jews, are told what Yom Kippur means…..
I also seriously consider it VERY insensitive that someone could not leave OTHERS out of the context.
WHY would any sensible person throw in the palestinians on a very brief, a couple of paragraphs, message on a – actually two – very strict Jewish celebration.
But to our PM Yom Kippur and considerations for the palestinians makes sense…………….
