Jewish-related news not easily found elsewhere, as well as upcoming events.
A 17 year old, White Plains, NY teen was the cause of a recent US Airways Express Flight 'terroism' fright. The religious youth had not yet done his morning prayers with tefillin. So he attempted to do so, while the plane was in flight. However, crew feared that he was attempting to set a bomb in motion. The plane landed prematurely. But, matters were fairly quickly resolved. One rabbi felt that Jews should be sensitive to the current state of affairs and not attempt to use tefillin on flights. Another rabbi bemoaned the fact that more people do not recognize tefillin and it's importance in many Jews' daily lives. - If you wish to share your thoughts regarding this, please send us an email at: thoughtsplus@JewsOnTheWeb.com
The Chabad-Lubavitch arranged for the 1st Yom Kippur services to be held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Hopefully this is just thye beginning of what be a growing Jewish community there.
Marvel comics, in the 1970's introduced us to the superheroine, Sabra, an Israeli, - She has appeared many times, but in a supporting role to Marvel's other characters. In July, their Astoning Tales #6 will feature Sabra in a storyline wherein she helps a young Israeli woman who is about to enter the air force. It's great to see a Jewish and Israeli play a pivotal role! - This story's author, Matt Yocum, who is not Jewish, is an American Air Force's rep to the Israeli government. He has lived in Israel, for years, during the past 2 decades. - Kudos to Marvel for giving this author a chance to be published and for the positive exposure.
