yes, there are plenty of us out there,

I have contributed a few times to the fundraising efforts for the release of Sholem Mordechai Rubashkin (as I am sure other Canadians have) including as recently as last night to the Klal Yisroel fund and I feel that events such as last night’s rally are a great KIddush Hashem and a great opportunity to strengthen Achdus among Yiden and a tremendous chizuk I am sure for Sholem Mordechai and for us to see how much is being done for him and to sensitize us to the situation that this is a Klal matter, as we continue to daven for… Read more »
