we are trying to create a veggie world.

That means of course getting more people to become aware of the need

to go veggie.

And what about the veggies who are out there already?

 

Well I want to tell you a personal story about that. My late father

was a veggie when he was younger, but he married a carnivore. As a

result I was raised as a carnivore, though I can recall my late

father eating vegetable plates at diners we would go to so he could

get them and eating vegetarian Chinese food at Chinese restuarants

we would go to so he could get that food. At long last he finally

gave up and ended his vegetarianism.

 

Though he live to what some consider to be " a ripe old age " I am

convinced that had he remained a veggie he would still be alive. He

has been dead for some years now.

 

What all of that means of course is that we need to make sure that

veggies marry veggies and that they raise their children as veggies.

 

So the need for single veggie organizations is enormous.

NJSingleVegetarians/

 

Subscribe: NJSingleVegetarians-

 

It was certainly good fortune that I became a veggie myself quite

awhile ago but many children of these so-called " veg/carnivore "

or " mixed-marriages " are not quite so lucky and end up as non-

veggies.

 

I am also of course promoting the veggie way of life to others who

are not yet veggies.

 

One key group to promote the veggie way of life to is science

fiction fans. Why science fiction fans? Well because some science

fiction fans actually become science fiction writers.

 

Why science fiction writers then? Well because the way of life that

we take for granted here in the so-called " first world " , of

industrialized nations is a way of life that not so long ago

was considered to be science fiction. It was a science fiction

writer: Arthur C. Clarke, who

came up with the idea of communications satellites as a science

fiction idea.

 

Well they are fiction no more. Nor are communications devices that

do not require wires.

Remember the " communicators " on StarTrek? Chances are you have a

cell phone in your pocket or in your car, or if you don't you know

more than one person who does.

 

Once again, fiction no more. Fact.

 

The science fiction fan of today is the science fiction writer of

tomorrow.

 

The science fiction story or idea of today is the fact of tomorrow,

just as yesterday's science fiction stories and ideas are the facts

of today.

 

Another place I am helping to promote the veggie way of life is in

the Jewish community.

I happen to be Jewish and would want nothing but the best way of

life there is for my fellow Jews. Eating animals is not only not

good for the animals who are murdered for food, it is not good for

the humans who eat them.

 

Being veggie is also very much in the interests of the Jewish

community around the world.

Producing a pound of steak " protein " on the plate requires up to 21

pounds of so-called

" feed " protein from things like the 42% of American wheat

production, the 86% of American corn, oats and barley production,

the 90% of non-exported soybean production, that goes into the

creation of that pound of steak " protein " on the plate of the

American animal eater.

 

Producing all of that so-called " feed " requires a lot of energy.

More energy is used

as petro-chemical based fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides, etc.

as well as in the transportation of that so-called " feed " , and of

the animals themselves, in the disposal of their wastes, in the

movement of water to irrigate those crops and to " water " those

animals.

 

Many of the energy sources involved are nations around the world

that supply arms to terrorists who slaughter Jews in Israel and

around the world, as well as other innocents, such as those who were

slaughtered on September 11th. 2001.

 

So I am promoting Jewish singles events at veggie establishments to

bring the fact of being able to have a veggie meal as a reality to

my fellow Jews.

 

I do so periodically at Veggie Heaven, a Kosher Vegan Chinese

Restaurant with several locations here in New Jersey. I hope that

similar restaurants exist elsewhere that may serve as event

locations. Failing that I hope that vegan house parties can be

arranged everywhere.

 

If you are Jewish yourself I hope that you will do the same wherever

you may be.

If you are able to come to some of these events I hope that you will

do so.

 

If you live to far away to get to them by all means create them.

Create them for your fellow Jews if you are Jewish.

 

Create them for your fellow veggies if you are veggie.

 

Create them for science fiction fans if you want to see science

fiction fans become veggie and science fiction ideas created by

veggie science fiction writers, all of whom start off as science

fiction fans creating the new facts of life on earth as ones which

will make it possible for a veggie world to in fact come into being.

 

Will you help in these effforts?

 

 

Do you have a Jewish single friend that you have not yet met in

person and may have been in touch with via email or telephone or

otherwise Why not invite that Jewish single friend to meet you at

one of the many Jewish singles events listed in our posts

 

Be sure to send your photo to your Jewish single friend, and to ask

your Jewish single friend to send a photo to you.

 

That way you can recognize one another when you meet at a Jewish

singles event.

Wants you! Our Science Fiction group is for everyone 21 or older

regardless of background or marital status. Younger fans should find

another group. Please introduce yourself when you join and

periodically as

new members keep joining. We plan to get together at restaurants and

to go

to movies. We will see them in movie theaters,and, if people are kind

enough, on people's home VCRs, or DVD

players, for the technologically advanced among us. Buy your own

movie

tickets. Buy your own meals at

Restaurants. Hopefully a typical event would involve going to a

Science

Fiction Movie and then to a Restaurant to discuss the movie we just

saw.

Are you a single Science Fiction fan looking for a soulmate? Perhaps

you

will find that person here. This club is not a New Jersey singles

group per se,

and is open to anyone over 21, regardless of background or marital

status,

nonetheless, love is a

good thing. In the parts of New Jersey where the

science fiction clubs we know of operate there is also a

very high percentage of Jewish residents. Many science fiction fans

and

science fiction writers and even science fiction stars, like Leonard

Nimoy,

(Mr. Spock), of Star Trek, and William Shatner (Captain Kirk), of

Star

Trek, also happen to be Jewish. Most science fiction fans I know are

single

men, and many of them, at least in places like New Jersey, are

Jewish.

 

 

Many science fiction fans in New Jersey also happen to be Jewish.

Most

science fiction fans are male. For the single Jewish woman in New

Jersey

joining a science fiction group may be the ideal way to find her

ideal man.

Unlike most singles events, which tend to be attended by more women

than

men,most science fiction events are attended by more men than women.

c-span, also known as C-SPAN provides much valuable information.

However, we are

distressed that programs like

Washington Journal on c-span seem to provide a forum for

anti-Semites and enemies of Israel and the Jewish people in

general who seem to not only call into that t.v. show, but get

through, and get

on the air, where they are seldom interupted or cut off by the show's

moderators. We feel that a 2 minute delay could enable the show's

moderators to

screen out the anti-Semites and enemies of Israel and the Jewish

people, however

no such 2 minute delay seems to be in place. Moreover the moderators

of that

show and others do not seem to be of a mind to cut off the anti-

Semites and

other enemies of Israel and the Jewish people in general who

regularly call into

that show and others

on c-span. We have therefore created this in the hopes

that members

of the group will become regular viewers of c-span and will call in

regularly to

Washington Journal and other c-span call in t.v. shows, to support

Israel and

the Jewish people and to counter the anti-Semites and other enemies

of Israel

and the Jewish people whose calls are regularly aired on c-span. We

also hope

that members of our will contact their U.S.

Senators and members of Congress and President Bush at

http://www.whitehouse.gov to see what can be done about

the situation at c-span.

We highly recommend http://www.jewsforjudaism.org/

" the Jewish community's leading response to the multi-million dollar

efforts of cults and evangelical " (Xtians) " who target Jews for

conversion. "

 

 

 

 

(Meshugeneh means crazy in Yiddish (so-called Messy an eck Jews,

they spell it somewhat differently, are not really Jews, they are

Xtians pretending to be Jews to convert Jews to their Xtian

religion.)

 

 

There are many avenues for Jewish activism. Support of Israel,

Support of the Jewish people, Opposition to anti-Semitism, to name a

few.

 

We believe that it is vital for Jewish survival that single Jews

meet other single Jews, marry one another, and raise their children

as Jews. Because there is a hole in our calendar from Friday night

to Saturday night during which many single Jews go to non-Jewish

singles events, meet non-Jews, marry non-Jews, and have children

from those marriages who are not raised as Jews, the Jewish people

faces a very severe problem. We urge everyone who reads this to

contact his or her Rabbi and demand that his or her Rabbi hold

regular Jewish singles Onegs on Friday nights.

 

We feel that it is vitally important that single Jews go to Jewish

singles events and meet other Jewish singles at those events.

 

If you know anyone who happens to be Jewish who is hosting a

singles event please ask him or her to consider hosting events just

for Jewish singles.

 

We also offer the opportunity at our on line Jewish singles groups

to post your Jewish singles introductions and to respond to other

Jewish singles introductions.

 

Please do so regularly. Please state that you are Jewish, single and

over 21

in your introductions at our on line Jewish singles groups.

Directions to meeting site:

 

Saddle River Valley Cultural Center

305 West Saddle River

Upper Saddle River

Bergen County, New Jersey

 

 

 

 

The Cultural Center looks like (but is not) a classic

little white church, steeple and all. The parking lot

is not too large, but it's okay to use the much bigger

lot of the Methodist Church diagonally across the

street.

 

Important Note: The Cultural Center is on WEST Saddle

River Road. One block further over is EAST Saddle

River Road. Unlike streets in New York, East does not

turn into West. The roads are on opposite banks of

the Saddle River which is nothing more than a stream

at this point.

 

 

 

FROM ROUTE 17 NORTHBOUND:

 

Exit ROUTE 17 NORTH at the sign which reads SADDLE

RIVER / WOODCLIFF LAKE. (This is the exit after

Sheridan Avenue, Ho Ho Kus.) This exit puts you onto

EAST ALLENDALE AVENUE heading East. Stay on road for

about 1/2 mile and turn left at the first traffic

light onto WEST SADDLE RIVER ROAD. Drive north for

1-3/4 miles. Shortly after passing a brick Catholic

Church, the Church of the Presentation, on your left

hand side you cross into Upper Saddle River. The

Cultural Center is on your left hand side. If you

come to a traffic light you have slightly overshot and

hit LAKE STREET.

 

Note: You will see a sign marked WEST SADDLE RIVER

ROAD on Route 17 northbound well to the south of where

you have been told to leave 17. If you take this

exit, you will eventually get where you want to be,

but it will take you a lot longer to get there.

 

 

 

FROM ROUTE 17 SOUTHBOUND:

 

Exit ROUTE 17 SOUTH at SADDLE RIVER / WOODCLIFF LAKE

exit. This puts you onto EAST ALLENDALE ROAD heading

East. You drive under the highway. Then follow the

directions from Route 17 Northbound.

 

Note: This way takes you a little bit longer than the

exit for UPPER SADDLE RIVER, but it spares you making

hairpin turns on steep hills at night in bad weather

on an unfamiliar road.

 

 

 

FROM THE GARDEN STATE PARKWAY NORTHBOUND:

 

 

Take Exit 172, GRAND AVENUE, MONTVALE. (This is the

last exit in New Jersey and is just past the Montvale

Service Area). Turn left at the exit ramp and head

west on GRAND AVENUE. There are a lot of small towns

in this area, and the road that you're on will keep

changing its name. At different points it is called

GRAND AVENUE, MONTVALE ROAD, RAMSEY ROAD and LAKE

STREET. At the second traffic light you will be at

the intersection of LAKE STREET and EAST SADDLE RIVER

ROAD. It has two landmarks that anyone in the area

will know about: a 7-11 type store called Elmers and

a Texaco station. Keep driving west. Do not turn.

Turn left at the next traffic light onto WEST SADDLE

RIVER ROAD. The Cultural Center is 1/10 of a mile

down the road on your right.

 

 

 

FROM ROCKLAND COUNTY VIA ROUTE 59:

 

Follow ROUTE 59 until you come to Norris Pontiac in

Monsey and turn south at the traffic light unto ROUTE

306. This road is also called EAST SADDLE RIVER

ROAD. Head south towards New Jersey. (Note:

Although the maps show this road as Route 306, and

that's what everyone calls it, after you make the

turn, the sign reads ROUTE 73. Don't ask me to

explain it.) Stay on ROUTE 306 for 2.3 miles Note

that there is a long stretch between the first and

second traffic lights.

 

Turn right at the second traffic light which is the

intersection of EAST SADDLE RIVER ROAD and LAKE

STREET. A Texaco station and Elmers are at this

corner. Proceed west and turn left at the next

traffic light onto WEST SADDLE RIVER ROAD. The

Cultural Center is 1/10 of a mile down the road on

your right.

 

Please note that we maintain separate email reminder

lists for all of the monthly activities of the

Association. If you would like to be added to any or

all of these lists, please contact the Science Fiction Association of

Bergen

Israeli Report: Nearly Half Of All Israelis Murdered By Arab

Terrorists Since 1948 Killed In The Past 6 1/2 Years Of Oslo War

April 24, 2007

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Morton A. Klein, 212-481-1500

New York - Statistics have been released in Israel by the National

Insurance Institute (Bituach Leumi) which show that, of the 1,635

Israelis murdered by Arab terrorists since the creation of Israel in

1948, 864 (more than half that number, or 52.8%) were murdered since

September 2000 in the on-going Oslo war (Israel National News, April

19).

Further facts about murdered Israelis:

 

 

A 2006 detailed report issued by the Almagor Terror Victims

Association (ATVA), showing that between the years 1993-1999, Israel

released 6,912 terrorists within the context of " confidence building

measures " and prisoner deals. Of that number, 854 (14%) were

arrested subsequently for lethal terrorist acts which claimed the

lives of 123 Israelis. All of the terrorists thus freed were

released with assurances to the public that they did not have " blood

on their hands " — Israel considers terrorists who have not

themselves pulled the trigger but who have recruited, trained and

sent bombers as people without blood on their hands.

 

According to Meir Indor, Director of ATVA, 177 Israelis killed in

terror attacks in the last five years were killed by

Palestinians " without blood on their hands " who had been released

from Israeli jails ( Jerusalem Post , April 10).

 

According to the Knesset Foreign Affairs & Defense Committee

Chairman, Tzachi Hanegbi (Kadima), 35 Israelis had been murdered by

prisoners Israel released in exchange for Elchanan Tennenbaum, an

Israeli businessman kidnapped by Hizballah ( Independent Media &

Review Analysis , April 13).

 

Since last Israel Independence Day, 66 Israeli civilians were killed

in terrorist attacks, including those who perished during the Second

Lebanon War waged by Hizballah ( Israel National News, April 19).

 

ZOA National President Morton A. Klein said, " These tragic facts

tell us as clearly as anything could that the Oslo peace process was

a mistake from just about every conceivable point of view. Oslo

advocates said it would bring peace, but it didn't -- in six years,

it brought more bloodshed, including the deaths of more than half of

the total number of Israelis murdered by terrorists since Israel

came into existence 59 years ago. Oslo advocates said that it would

stimulate Arab moderates and moderate Arab, especially Palestinian

Arab, public opinion, but the reverse has happened -- Hamas was

elected, Palestinian Arabs are today raised on a diet of incitement

to hatred and murder in their media, mosques, schools and youth

camps and successive polls show them as committed as ever to

terrorism, the right of return and other positions that are

incompatible with peace and accepting Israel's existence as a Jewish

state. Oslo advocates also told us that it would bring greater

security and reduce criticism of Israel, but again, the reverse

happened -- in the long run, there is more criticism of Israel than

ever, academics and writers in the West speak now openly of the need

for Israel to disappear, Israeli academics are boycotted and

ostracized and the UN continues to pass innumerable hostile

resolutions against Israel. Oslo therefore brought Israel more loss

of life and weakened Israel's standing in the world, not the

opposite. "

ZOA Agrees With Min. Lieberman: Israeli Non-Response To Terror From

Gaza Is A Mistake

April 24, 2007

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Morton A. Klein, 212-481-1500

Hamas Ends " Ceasefire " & Says:

Kidnap & Kill More Israelis

 

New York - The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) is supporting

comments by Israel's Strategic Affairs Minister, Avigdor Lieberman

(Israel Beitenu), that Hamas' declaration that its so-called cease

fire is over, coupled with an escalation of rocket attacks upon

Israel from Gaza, means that the Olmert government policy of not

responding to rocket fire from Gaza is a mistake and a strong

response is necessary to protect Israelis and their property.

Lieberman said that this policy of restraint is seen as weakness and

that Israel must take immediate steps to secure the safety of

residents in Sderot and other areas in southern Israel that are

being regularly bombarded from Gaza. His words were echoed by Kadima

MK Shai Hermesh, a resident of Kibbutz Kfar Azza, who said that

despite the government's promises, nothing had yet been done to

fortify homes vulnerable to Qassem rocket attacks.

 

Earlier, Hamas spokesman Abu Obeideh told a Palestinian radio

station that the volleys of Qassem rockets and mortar shells fired

at Israel today were meant to be a " clear message to the Zionist

enemy. " Obeideh also said Hamas was still holding Cpl. Gilad

Schalit, and said that " [Hamas was] ready to kidnap and kill more

and more soldiers " ( Jerusalem Post, April 24, 2007).

 

At least 12 Qassem rockets and 20 mortar rounds were fired at Israel

from the Gaza Strip today. Hamas claimed responsibility for the

attacks and released a statement decrying " Zionist crimes against

[the Palestinian] people in Gaza and the West Bank " -- a reference

to Israel having killed eight armed terrorists, including a team of

five that had fired rockets targeting Israeli civilians.

 

Warnings of impending dangers to Israel from Gaza if current policy

of restraint continues:

 

 

Brigadier General Sami Turjeman, head of IDF operations

directorate: " In another few months, in the Gaza Strip we will have

to deal with military capabilities of the terror organizations that

we haven't been familiar with until now, especially in the realm of

anti-tank missiles " ( Haaretz, December 26, 2006).

 

Brigadier General Yossi Beidetz, head of IDF Military Intelligence

research department: " the threat from Gaza will be significantly

greater a year from now because Hamas is using the cease-fire to

strengthen its forces " ( Haaretz, December 26, 2006).

 

ZOA National President Morton A. Klein said, " It is clear that when

Israel does not react seriously to terrorist attacks, especially

continuous ones, and takes only occasional action to disrupt the

terrorist infrastructure, the terrorists grow bolder, have time to

regroup and plan for the next terror offensive against Israeli

civilians. All this conveys the message to the Palestinian

terrorists that terrorism pays well. It is clear from their

statements and plans that this is the lesson they have drawn from

Israel's recent actions.

" Senior Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officers have previously

described as insufficient the Olmert government's policy of

restraint and the limiting of responses in Gaza to targeting rocket

crews and the like. Also, the distinguished British journalist,

Melanie Phillips, has pointed out that the past five months of a

supposed Palestinian Arab `ceasefire' has included the capture of

would-be suicide bombers, thwarted car bomb attempts, shooting

attacks, calls for further kidnapping of Israeli soldiers by Hamas

and incessant rocket attacks on Israeli civilian areas. The IDF

reported that they prevented 187 terrorist attacks in 2006. It is

therefore clear that Israel has derived no benefit from a

formal `ceasefire' and Israel must therefore use every legitimate

means at its disposal to fight the terrorists and defeat them. Such

a campaign is long overdue. In fact, former Prime Minister Sharon

and former Ambassador to the U.S. Ayalon said that if, after the

Gaza withdrawal, there is even a single missile fired from Gaza,

Israel would use overwhelming force to prevent any future missile

attack. We support Avigdor Lieberman's efforts to bring about

Israeli military before more Jewish lives are lost and maimed by

terrorists. "

What if Saddam were still in power? What if he were still paying the

families of

terrorists bounties on Jewish scalps? Saddam raised the fees he paid

them from $10,000 to $15,000 to $25,000. How much would Saddam be

paying the families of those GENOCIDE BOMBERS today had Saddam

remained in power? Surely Jewish events around the world would be

the targets of those searching for Jewish scalps and the bounty

Saddam placed on them. Would any of us be safe at any Jewish event

anywhere on earth if Saddam were still in power today? We challenge

those who opposed the liberation of Iraq to give us 2

numbers. The first number is the amount Saddam Hussein would be

paying the

families of GENOCIDE BOMBERS as a reward for the murder of Jews if

Iraq had not

been liberated in 2003 c.e. Saddam Hussein had continuously raised

the

amount he paid the families of GENOCIDE BOMBERS as a reward for the

murder of Jews

from $10,000 to $15,000 to $25,000. What would Saddam Hussein be

paying the families of GENOCIDE BOMBERS as a reward for the murder

of Jews if Iraq had NOT been liberated in 2003 c.e.???? Give us a

number please.The next number is the number of Jews who would have

been murdered by those GENOCIDE BOMBERS whose families would have

been rewarded with those dollars for the murder of Jews if Iraq had

NOT been liberated in 2003 c.e. Give us a number please, how many

more Jews murdered by those GENOCIDE BOMBERS if Iraq had NOT been

liberated in 2003 c.e.???? Give us a number please.

The next time you go to a Jewish event look at the person sitting on

your left side and the person sitting on your right side and the

person sitting in front of you and the person sitting behind you,

and at yourself. Ask yourself how many of those people, including

yourself, would be dead right now if Saddam had remained in power.

and if Saddam were still paying a bounty for Jewish scalps to the

families of GENOCIDE BOMBERS. If I am not for myself who am I for?

 

 

 

" Rabbi Hillel was born to a wealthy family in Babylonia, but came to

Jerusalem without the financial support of his family and supported

himself as a woodcutter. It is said that he lived in such great

poverty that he was sometimes unable to pay the admission fee to

study Torah, and because of him that fee was abolished. He was known

for his kindness, his gentleness, and his concern for humanity. One

of his most famous sayings, recorded in Pirkei Avot (Ethics of the

Fathers, a tractate of the Mishnah), is " If I am not for myself,

then who will be for me? And if I am only for myself, then what am

I? And if not now, when? "

 

So next time you are at a Jewish event of any type remember to look

at the person in front of you and at the person on your left and the

person on your right and the person behind you

and be for them too, and for yourself. Remember that removing Saddam

Hussein from power helped to keep all of those people, and you too,

alive, and safe from the GENOCIDE BOMBERS whose families Saddam

Hussein was paying a $25,000 bounty to for murdering Jews.
