@HenMazzig Bad sportsmanship? Losers. They proved nothing other than they are losers. Shame on them.

This is my cousin Ahuva Lieba Schlossberg from Radin.
She was 24 years old when the Nazis came to her town and murdered her parents, husband and extended family.
Ahuva Lieba fled to the frozen forests surrounding her town and her fight for survival began.
She hid in the forest and survived on anything she could find there. Sometimes she met Polish and Jewish partisans and joined them.
When Passover of 1944 approached, even as she lived in the frozen forests of Radin, Lieba began thinking of the upcoming holiday. A young widow in her 20s, she could not even begin to dream about baking matza as any kind of baking and assembling the equipment needed would give off their location to the Germans or Polish locals who would be happy to turn them in for a reward. She decided she would not eat any Chametz despite the fact that much of her nourishment came from the dark, stale bread they were able to fetch from nearby farms. Weeks in advance, she began collecting mushrooms, potatoes, and anything she could get her hands on in a bag so that she can eat those for the eight days of Passover.
Lieba hid her bag of vegetables next to a tree in the forest in a secure location only she knew about. Two days before Passover as she was going to check on her secret stash of vegetables, to her horror, Lieba had realized they were no longer there; someone had taken them. Would this Passover be the first time she ate Chametz? Would she have to break her resolution to abstain from eating Chametz?
Lieba took one of the last and most precious treasures she had: her deceased mother’s coat and her deceased father’s boots.
In the dark of the night and in roundabout ways, lest she be traced or give away their hiding location, Lieba came to the home of a Polish farmer who knew her family and exchanged the coat and boots for a sack of vegetables. Her joy knew no bounds. In the ditch with the few survivors left, she convinced her friends to declare their bread ownerless, boiled snow in their pot to make it Kosher for Passover, and for eight days, they all ate vegetables. Her joy knew no boundaries.
She survived this war and attempted to break the British blockade, coming on a ship named Wingate, honoring Charles Orde Wingate. She was deported to Cyprus and came into Israel in 1948.
That is the courage and resiliency that has kept our people alive for more than 3000 years.
Am Yisrael Chai!

Good finish to half …almost. That 3 hurt. @Raptors are in it. Need a strong 3rd quarter.

0/9. Impressive start. #Raptors have nowhere to go but up. Throw in 2 missed free throws. Party on.

We have a BIG problem with our Canadian Security Intelligence Services (CSIS) and our Jewish community.

Not once.
@csiscanada mentioned Extremism without ever referring to Islamic Extremism.
@csiscanada mentioned Terrorism without ever referring to Islamic Terrorism.
Antisemitism is approximately 400% higher than Islamophobia in Canada since October 7th 2023.
Jew Hate is higher than all other racial, religious hate in Canada, yet our “intelligence” agency has shown they completely ignore and neglect the explosive rise in shootings, firebombs, assault, hate graffiti and violence towards Canadian Jews.
@csiscanada what the hell is going on?
