Being Jewish. What does it mean—today—and for the future? Listen in as Jews of all backgrounds reflect, argue, and imagine.
When Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl was brutally murdered in Pakistan, many Jews were particularly touched by his last words affirming his Jewish identity. Many were moved to reflect on or analyze their feelings toward their lives as Jews.
The saying “two Jews, three opinions” well reflects the Jewish community’s broad range of views on any topic. I Am Jewish captures this richness of interpretation and inspires Jewish people of all backgrounds to reflect upon and take pride in their identity.
Contributions, ranging from major essays to a paragraph or a sentence, come from adults as well as young people in the form of personal feelings, statements of theology, life stories, and historical reflections. Despite the diversity, common denominators shine through clearly and distinctly.

An artist in Damascus puts the finishing touches on a painting of President Bashar Assad, right, and Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah Sunday, July 16, 2006 in a sign of solidarity. Syria's government on Sunday promised Israel a firm and immediate retaliation for any possible Israeli attack on its territory. Israel has accused Syria and Iran of supporting Hezbollah, whose guerrillas captured two Israeli soldiers Wednesday _ sparking a 5-day Israeli assault on Lebanon. (AP Photo/ Bassem Tellawi).

i'm still not convinced Olmert has what it takes to actually invade southern lebanon. If he does, Syria will definetly feel the pressure to intervene, if they don't intervene at that point they lose serious face, if they do intervene they will get their rear ends handed to them and we will have to see if they launch any of their missile arsenal (which is likely a lot more potent than what Hizbullah has) at Israel. At that point all bets are off

With my mom, it worked for me, but not my brother. He would laugh when she turned her back. He somehow grew into a fine adult. No kids though. I think he would have "a look" for them if he had them.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

Couldn't resist...

Hello,

Please don't bring up Shep, rumor has it that he is there.

Mr. "I am a Girly Man", should stay home...

Glad to be here, MOgirl

PS: I am not drunk yet either. Really, I'm not. Nope, not me.
