New Orleans' Jews all thought safe

[Behind the Aegis]

Though there is no direct count of the New Orleans Jewish community, a sigh of relief was heard Sunday from the head of the Jewish federation, now in Houston.

"I think we've got them all out," said Eric Stillman, executive director of the Jewish Federation of Greater New Orleans, which is now operating out of Texas.

Meanwhile, Israel Ambassador to the United States, Dani Ayalon, told Israel Radio Monday morning that the two Israelis who have been missing since the hurricane struck, are still unaccounted for.

However, Ayalon expressed hope that they may have been evacuated to Houston.

Hopefully, this is true! What a miracle it would be!

3. I haven't heard.

I did read some where else, that they believe everyone has been accounted for, including the missing Israelis! However, having a father who worked as a PR person, often first stories are wrong. So, we may have to wait a little longer and see if another miracle did visit our brothers and sisters.
