unfortunately Joe they are far too visible and vocal.

I have quoted from this daughter of a Holocaust survivor before but its message is as true for me as ever

'For my mother and father, Judaism meant bearing witness,
raging against injustice and
foregoing silence.

It meant compassion, tolerance and rescue.....

These were the ultimate (Jewish) values.
