HENRIETTA SZOLD chats with Tehran Chldren 370.
(photo credit:Courtesy)
The Tel Aviv District Court made legal history this week, ruling that the state must pay out compensation totaling NIS 17 million to a group of 217 Holocaust survivors who sued for unpaid reparations.The claimants, mostly in their 80s, belong to a group of survivors known as the Tehran Children, Jewish orphans who fled Poland for the former Soviet Union in 1939 after the Nazis massacred their parents.The Soviets first incarcerated the children in a Siberian gulag, but later allowed them to travel to Iran with the Polish Anders Army. The orphans lived in a refugee camp in Tehran until the Jewish Agency rescued them and brought them to Israel in 1943, where their arrival and tragic personal testimonies caused shockwaves throughout the Jewish community.Over 200 of the Tehran Children first sued the state in 2004, arguing that they are entitled to their rightful share of reparation monies paid to Israel by West Germany under the 1953 Reparations Agreement.This week's court ruling, which the groups' lawyer, Gad Weissfeld, said made "moral and legal history," brings to an end the survivors' nine-year legal battle, but also shines light onto a decades-long bitter struggle between Holocaust survivors and the state.The civil suit centered on whether the Tehran children, as Holocaust survivors, are personally entitled to receive compensation payments from the monies Israel received under the Reparations Agreement.Under that agreement, signed in Luxembourg on September 10, 1952, West Germany agreed to pay Israel some three billion Deutsch Marks in annual installments over 12 years in the form of goods and services – plus another DM 450 million over 12 years "to be used for the relief, rehabilitation and resettlement of Jewish victims of Nazi persecution"."[Then Prime Minister] Ben-Gurion's interpretation of [the agreement] was that the state should take the money itself, and use it for public projects," said Prof. Zeev Schuss, one of the Tehran children who testified in the trial as an expert witness.However, Schuss said the state never rehabilitated the Tehran children, as it pledged to do under the Reparations Agreement.Schuss, who was just five years old when he came to Israel in 1943, said that instead the Israeli government "disassociated itself" from the Tehran Children.Most of the orphans were drafted into the IDF and fought in the War of Independence, Schuss said.But when the war was over, the orphans found themselves with nowhere to go and, as the state had not trained them in any profession, nothing to do."Some of the Tehran children testified that after the war they slept in empty buses or in Meir Park in Tel Aviv, because they had nothing, no families and no homes," Schuss added, noting that the state did not even officially recognize the Tehran Children as Holocaust survivors until 1997.One of the complainants, 83-yearold Moshe Schreiber, was 13 when he came to Israel as one of the Tehran Children in 1943. Like many of his fellow children, he fought in the War of Independence, and afterwards the state had not helped him find a place to live or a profession, he said.Schreiber said he was happy about the court ruling but angry at the way successive governments have dealt with survivors."It's taken us nearly 60 years to get justice," he said. "All of Israel's governments, starting with Ben-Gurion's and ending with this current government, they all refused us reparations. All of them turned their backs on the very weakest element in our society – Holocaust survivors, children and orphans."In her 41-page ruling, Judge Drora Pilpel slammed the state's argument that if the court ruled in favor of the Tehran Children, the floodgates could be opened for more Holocaust survivor lawsuits, which could lead to an economic crisis in Israel if the state had to pay out.The court ruled that all the Tehran Children – not just the 217 who sued – were each entitled to a compensation payment of NIS 50,000 each. To that sum must be added interest, increasing the compensation payment to NIS 78,000 each."The payment is bupkes [Yiddish for "absolutely nothing"], it's purely symbolic and the state's fears that the court ruling will ruin it are groundless," Schuss said, noting that of the around 400 Tehran Children still alive, most are very elderly and only a handful are likely to step forward and claim their compensation.It is not yet clear whether the state will appeal the ruling in the Supreme Court, an act Schuss said would be "unbecoming," and would likely make the court case drag on for many more years."The state should pay. It's time it put a stop to this poor treatment of survivors," he concluded.

Of course the executioner Ismaaiyl Brinsley is a black criminal like those embraced by the left in their war vs. whites, police & country.
Not just deBlasio and Sharpton, but Obama and Holder have blood on their hands over these deaths for encouraging the lynch mobs.
I am sick & tired of black racists, from Sharpton to Samuel Jackson, spreading lies about white people and police and inciting their murder.

Russian parliament endorses adoption ban
Relevant offers
Defying a storm of domestic and international criticism, Russia has moved toward finalising a ban on Americans adopting Russian children, with Parliament's upper house voting unanimously in favour of a measure that President Vladimir Putin has indicated he will sign into law.
The bill is widely seen as the Kremlin's retaliation against an American law that calls for sanctions against Russians deemed to be human rights violators. It comes as Putin takes an increasingly confrontational attitude toward the West, brushing aside concerns about a crackdown on dissent and democratic freedoms.
Dozens of Russian children close to being adopted by American families now will almost certainly be blocked from leaving the country. The law also cuts off the main international adoption route for Russian children stuck in often dismal orphanages: More than 60,000 Russian youngsters have been adopted in the United States in the past 20 years. There are about 740,000 children without parental care in Russia, according to UNICEF.
All 143 members of the Federation Council present voted to support the bill, which has sparked criticism from both the United States and Russian officials, activists and artists, who say it victimises children by depriving them of the chance to escape the squalor of orphanage life. The vote comes days after Parliament's lower house overwhelmingly approved the ban.
Seven people with posters protesting the bill were detained outside the Council before the overnight (NZ time) vote. "Children get frozen in the Cold War," one poster read. Some 60 people rallied in St Petersburg, Russia's second largest city.
The bill is part of larger legislation by Putin-allied lawmakers retaliating against a recently signed US law that calls for sanctions against Russians deemed to be human rights violators. Although Putin has not explicitly committed to signing the bill, he strongly defended it in a press conference last week as "a sufficient response" to the new US law.
Originally Russia's lawmakers cobbled together a more or less a tit-for-tat response to the US law, providing for travel sanctions and the seizure of financial assets in Russia of Americans determined to have violated the rights of Russians.
But it was expanded to include the adoption measure and call for a ban on any organisations that are engaged in political activities if they receive funding from US citizens or are determined to be a threat to Russia's interests.
Russian children's rights ombudsman Pavel Astakhov told the Interfax news agency that 46 children who were on the verge of being adopted by Americans would stay in Russia if the bill is approved — despite court rulings in some of these cases authorizing the adoptions.
The ombudsman supported the bill, saying that foreign adoptions discourage Russians from adopting children. "A foreigner who has paid for an adoption always gets a priority compared to potential Russian adoptive parents," Astakhov was quoted as saying. "A great country like Russia cannot sell its children."
Russian law allows foreigners to adopt only if a Russian family has not expressed interest in a child being considered for adoption.
Some top government officials, including the foreign minister, have spoken flatly against the adoption law, arguing that the measure would be in violation of Russia's constitution and international obligations.
But Senator Mikhail Margelov, chairman of the Council's foreign affairs committee, referred to the bill as "a natural and a long overdue response" to the US legislation. "Children must be placed in Russian families, and this is a cornerstone issue for us," he said.
Margelov said that a bilateral Russian-US agreement binds Russia to give notice of a halt to adoptions 12 months in advance. Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russian news agencies that the president would consider the bill within the next two weeks.
The measure has become one of the most debated topics in Russia.
By Tuesday, more than 100,000 Russians had signed an online petition urging the Kremlin to scrap the bill.
Over the weekend, dozens of Muscovites placed toys and lit candles in front of the Duma, Russia's lower house of parliament after it approved the bill on Friday, but security guards promptly removed them. Opposition groups said they will rally against the bill on January 13, and several popular artists publicly voiced their concern about the legislation.
While receiving a state award from Putin yesterdayy, film actor Konstantin Khabensky wore a badge saying "Children Are Beyond Politics." On Tuesday, veteran rock musician Andrey Makarevich called on Putin to stop "killing children."
During a marathon Putin press conference, eight of the 60 questions the president answered focused on the bill. Responding angrily, Putin claimed that Americans routinely mistreat children from Russia.
The bill is named in honour of Dima Yakovlev, a Russian toddler who was adopted by Americans and then died in 2008 after his father left him in a car in broiling heat for hours. The father was found not guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
Russian lawmakers argue that by banning adoptions to the US they would be protecting children and encouraging adoptions inside Russia.
In a measure of the virulent anti-US sentiment that has gripped parts of Russian society, a few lawmakers went even further, claiming that some Russian children were adopted by Americans only to be used for organ transplants and become sex toys or cannon fodder for the US Army.

90 Tauren Paladin
Tyrion is my favorite character pretty much ever.
He loves his whoring, but he seems to have a certain sense of honor about who he is and his position; something that, from my limited experience in the story, is sorely lacking from almost everyone else.
That, and watching him smack the brat prince around was the best scene ever. I could watch a looping .gif of that for HOURS.
85 Gnome Mage
The whole, throwing a child (Bran) out a window sorta puts you off a guy for some reason.... :)
92 Human Hunter
I'd like to know what the deal is with Ghost, Jon's dire wolf. He was seen as a puppy and we haven't seen him since. I read the books so I know he's -supposed- to be there, but there hasn't been one sign of him. It's getting to the point where if he shows up again people not familiar with the books will have forgotten about him and wonder where the wolf came from.
they really havent done much with the wolves at all. they got them..and now they are fiercly loyal. there was no bonding time or even just scenes wit the wolfs around. its my only real complaint.
77 Worgen Warrior
I have noticed this too lol
I can't wait until in the last half of the season, the big shocker happens and all the people who haven't read the books will be like "WTF!?!?!?!"
Someone just doesn't know how to play the Game of Thrones...
I can't wait until in the last half of the season, the big shocker happens and all the people who haven't read the books will be like "WTF!?!?!?!"Don't mess with Walder Fray.
I think the books are going to start coming out faster now that:
-The TV series will eventually catch up in plot.
-I think a big reason Martin had such trouble getting it out was because of how much he decided to change up the format between Feast for Crows and Dance with Dragons. Now that that's dealt with I think he'll start focusing on the fact that the last two books in the series are the climax, rather than the meat of the action.
Anyways....there are some gripes I have with the HBO series(No spoilers here):
-When Ned talks to Bran about why he had to behead the guy from the Nights Watch, he's supposed to give a small speech about how the Oathbreaker is a man who lives outside the law and is therefore dangerous and can do anything. I think this is an important part of the series because it helps define Ned's relationship with Jaime. Also, it has these quotes:
Bran- "Can a man still be brave when he's afraid?"
-And in Episode 3, again, Ned's relationship with his children is short-changed. When he's talking to Arya, he's supposed to say:
When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives. – Ned Stark
Seeing as how Bran's Nan tells the story from the book of Winter and white walkers, I think that quote would have been a tremendous addition to the episode. Unless Ned did say it and I just didn't notice? Or maybe the writers just felt it was too cheesy to put in? Still though, it's an important quote and people watching the series should know about it.
-Other than those two things the editing and music feels a bit laid back. I understand we haven't gotten to any of the action yet, or even the meat of the story, but I'm still kind of hoping the people behind the show kind of "hit their stride" and start adding their own flavor to it instead of just trying to expand on the scenes in the books. I like how they changed the story around to make Tyrion the one to smarten Jon Snow up about how he was behaving at the Wall instead of the Blacksmith. I think they should have focus a bit more on the relationship between Jon Snow and Aliser Thorne though(the guy who was instructing them all to fight; he hates Jon Snow for no real reason).
I can't wait until in the last half of the season, the big shocker happens and all the people who haven't read the books will be like "WTF!?!?!?!"
Honestly? This early in the series, you shouldn't even be eluding to the idea of plot twists. Let people find out everything on their own. You could be lessening the experience for them just by hinting that something major happens later on, because then they'll be consciously trying to piece together bits of the puzzle to figure out where this "big shocker" happens.
they really havent done much with the wolves at all. they got them..and now they are fiercly loyal. there was no bonding time or even just scenes wit the wolfs around. its my only real complaint.
They've had plenty of time to train and get with the Wolves. It's just that it happened off-screen in the first episode. It took months for King Robert to make it to Winterfell. That's when the wolves grew and the children became used to them. I think the makers of the show tried conveying that by showing the Wolves playing around with the kids when they were bigger.
Other than that? There just haven't been any parts of the plot that require them, outside of the second episode.
100 Human Paladin
Amazing show, best adaptation I've seen of a novel series.
WoW needs some Game of Throne refs now
Winter is comming...
Amazing show, best adaptation I've seen of a novel series.
It has them.
Not only are Death Knights largely like the "White Walkers"(just called "Wights" in the show), but those zombies are supposed to be associated with the colour blue---ever look at a Death Knight's Eyes?
Much later on in the series there's also a story told about something called the Horn of Winter.
There also used to be a Gnome NPC named Tyrion in Stormwind, though he resembled the Song of Fire and Ice character in name only and is now gone. He was a member of SI:7.
And don't forget the title you get for killing the Lich King: Kingslayer.

"Seen in the mountains of Tennessee. I had to turn around and come back to see this again. Had my wife snap a photo while we passed by the second time. Yes, the trailer is built into the house... or the house is built around the trailer - take your pick. Plus, it looks like brand new construction. Bubba is still busy."
I would make puns about this pool being hot and all, but they probably wouldn't go over too well. It'd be wheel embarrowsing.

Chicago steps up the competition with Hawaii for Obama library
- Staff Pacific Business News
Chicago is stepping up its campaign to become the site of President Barack Obama's presidential library as officials from the University of Hawaii and the Hawaii Legislature lay out their case for why the president should choose his birthplace instead.
The Associated Press reports top officials from the University of Chicago, accompanied by fist lady Michelle Obama's former chief of staff, traveled to Dallas in December to meet with archivists at The George W. Bush Presidential Library at Southern Methodist University. The AP, citing emails obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, also reported that Alice McLean, a member of the University of Chicago president's office also recently met with the director of presidential libraries at the National Archives and Records Administration, who provided the architectural and design standards for presidential libraries.
Hawaii hosted a fundraiser the night before Obama's second inauguration for a presidential library that would be built on an oceanfront site in Honolulu's Kakaako neighborhood. Hawaii's effort is being led by Robert Perkinson, an associate professor of American Studies at UH.
Community leaders involved in the effort include Robbie Alm, executive vice president of Hawaiian Electric Industries Inc. (NYSE: HE); Peter Ho, chairman, president and CEO of Bank of Hawaii Corp. (NYSE: BOH); Tim Johns, senior vice president of the Hawaii Medical Services Association; Constance Lau, president and CEO of Hawaiian Electric Industries; Dee Jay Mailer, CEO of Kamehameha Schools; Henk Rogers, founder and chairman of the Blue Planet Foundation; and Jim Scott, president of Obama's alma mater, Punahou School.

I have been off work for maternity leave since July 31. We moved and and a new baby boy. Lately I feel like ODS my 3 year old is just out of control. Not listening, hitting screaming tantruming, and all I'm doing is yelling. I feel so bad that I am looking forward do him to start school and me go back to work, but I think it's what we both need. Advice to people having #2... If they are used to going to daycare, keep that schedule when u have the baby! I think it would have made this easier. Love him to peices but he's making me crazy!
