A Letter of Pride from Hungarian Jew
I'm from Hungary, I'm Jewish and I'm proud of it. Even though there a lot of fascists, even in the Parliament. We know what caring for each other really means. We have to face the skinheads almost every day, when we walk on the streets everybody looks with strange eyes, but we can feel the security because we know that we have a strong community that protects us. WE PROTECT EACH OTHER! In the synagogues I can feel the warm atmosphere.

WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME FAMILY, GOT THE SAME RELIGION, SAME RITUALS, SAME LANGUAGE, SAME GOD, SAME FEARS.

Mark Lazar of Montreal Writes with Pride:
The 105,000 Jews of Montreal contribute more to Federation Combined Jewish Appeal than do the 3.4 million residents of Montreal (including the Jews) to Montreal's United Way!

Gerard Contributed the following:
General Washington's financial advisor and assistant was a Jewish man by the name of Hyam Salomon. During the cold winter months at Valley Forge when American soldiers were freezing and running out of food, it was Hyam who marshaled all the Jews in America and Europe to provide money in relief aid to these stranded American troops and turned the course of history. Without this help, Washington's Continental Army, and the fate of the American Colonies would have perished before they could have defeated the British.

If you take a one dollar bill out of your pocket and look at the back at the Eagle, the stars above the Eagle's head are in the six point Star of David to honor Jews. If you turn the Eagle upside down you will see a configuration in the likeness of a Menorah....both at the insistence of George Washington who said we should never forget the Jewish people and what they have done in the interest of America. Kind of nice to know about, don't you think? This is the seal of the United States of America.
