The Jewish Chronicle - Frankel House send governor bill to divest Pa funds from Iran Sudan

The Jewish Chronicle - Frankel House send governor bill to divest Pa funds from Iran Sudan

Follow this link, it's heartening news. I don't have much more to say about it, except that it makes me so mad that people don't do everything they can to prevent this. Yes, some of that anger is turned on myself.

I wish I was more elegant and could say all that I feel on this subject, especially right now, at a moments notice. Everyone should read the book An Ordinary Man by Paul Rusesabagina, or you might recognize him this way: it's the autobiography of the man that the movie Hotel Rwanda is all about. It's an intimate look at what genocide is, and how humanity is failing one another in letting this continue.

This is not an elegant speech or a call to specific action, at least not yet, but it is a start. It's a cry for awareness, it's an attempt to let people know that we have to do something, because everything is not OK. Come on people, this should be at the top if the international to do list.
