Editorial Board: Accordingly, “the European Union allows Morocco – which…has occupied Western Sahara since 1975, and populated it heavily with settlers – to export products from its occupied territory labeled ‘Made in Morocco.’ ” The EU itself insists that the made in Morocco label is not misleading.

Not sure why labeling produce from Samaria, Jerusalem, Judea, and the Golan Heights is so controversial. Labeling is done throughout civilized Nations. Does being made from somewhere sound too provincial? Protesting being made is insulting to Zilpah and Bilhah.

I always look at official labels;

if Europe’s not labeling Arab produce, perhaps it’s because Arabs are being identified as less cooperative, so to speak.

From a European perspective, when they insist Greater Israeli produce be labeled, perhaps those white steeds are alluding to the end days:

שמעתי שמספר החתומים היה 144,000 מכל שבטי ישראל

Made in Golan Heights

Made in Egypt and Sodom

Made in the West Bank

עומר אדם: I thank You every morning

That You returned my soul to me

I thank you for the clothing

That You placed on my body

So that I won’t be cold. You watch over me.

I thank you every morning

For the light, and for my very existence

I thank You for the bread

That You placed on my table

So that I won’t know hunger. So that I won’t know pain.

For my countless smiles, I thank You

For all my talents, and for all my songs

And for my songs, I dedicate them all to You

Know, know, that I thank You

I will scream out to You, mighty is Your name.

My life is Yours, my heart is Yours, my thanks is Yours

I will call out to You, Hashem. I will call out to You Hashem.

I thank You every morning

For my strength and my father and my mother

I thank You for the rain that you placed in my fields.

You take care of my loved ones. You gave me my life.

For the day of rest, I thank You

For abundance and blessing and family

All of me exists only because of You

Know, know, that I thank You

For all of my failures, I thank You

For my disappointments, my fears, my stumbling blocks

They are all for my benefit

There is nothing in my heart besides thanks for You.

JEWISH VIRTUAL LIBRARY: The Kedemites enjoyed among the Israelites a great reputation for wisdom. Not only does David quote a Kedemite proverb which he characterizes as such, but the wisdom of the Kedemites is rated only lower than Solomon’s though higher than that of the Egyptians (I Kings 5:10)

jacobinesque: A man came across a beach covered in starfish that had washed ashore. Further along he saw a boy throwing the starfish back into the ocean. “What are you doing?” he asked the boy. The boy responded “The tide is going out and if the starfish don’t get back into ocean they will die.”

“But there are thousands of starfish on this beach!” the man said. “You can’t possibly save them all. Even if you worked all day, it wouldn’t make a difference.”

The boy picked up another starfish and threw it into the ocean. “It made a difference to that one.”
