https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HIAS

HIAS (founded as the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society) is an American nonprofit organization that provides humanitarian aid and assistance to refugees. The organization works with people whose lives and freedom are believed to be at risk due to war, persecution, or violence. HIAS has offices in the United States and across Latin America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. Since its inception, HIAS has helped resettle more than 4.5 million people.


There's more about its history at the link.

Had the distinct pleasure to be able to volunteer Transportation for and helping find Housing as well as food stuffs while doing Volunteer work with ACORN. A few hours a month on my Weekends was more than what any Religion could offer. And the local Jewish Community where just a phone call away with what ever one needed.

most diverse and Culturally wonderful areas of the USA. Try to return for the Summers every year,the old body as well as the Spouse's,just can not do Winter worth a darn any more.


Stop and think,a world tour of Culinary and Ethnic styles to be sampled. Where else can one go and gain ten pounds just walking the Downtown Loops and munch your way through the sites and sounds.

all of Latin America. Love it!

"Honey, do you feel like Argentinian, Bolivian or Peruvian tonight?"

Same thing with our African immigrant communities. Many parts of Africa are represented here, and their cuisines are available. What an adventure, if you're a foodie.

Twitter doesn't look like that.

Thanks for correcting your post to "post" instead of "tweet" - glad I can help out!

If the MAGAts feel their monopoly in government or their leader is in jeopardy, ie Blue Wave, they will go on the attack. More of them will be “going in”.

John 8:44.....

That is exactly not the point he is trying to make. He is trying to say that it's our actions that show whether God or Satan is "our father" in a very figurative sense.

He is saying "You are not the righteous just because you descend of Abraham, if you not also behave like that". Reversing that to say Jews are "children of Satan" in general is basically the thing he tries to refute here, in reverse.

I feel better now....
