Memorial Calendar from Germany, c. 1880.

This memorial calendar was either made by Joseph Fried to memorialize his deceased parents or commissioned from the artist by someone else to commemorate the anniversary of the death of his of her parents Itzhak, son of Meir, who died on the 14th of Adar, 1880 (=February 26th, 1880) and Hannah, daughter of David who died on the 13th of Tishre, 1860 (=September 29th, 1860). Rendered both in Hebrew and German, this calendar features an inscription inspired by Ecclesiastes: "The world is vain; life, a dream."

Judaism prescribes that children remember their parents by reciting the mourner's prayer or kaddish on the anniversary of death, known in Ashkenazi tradition as the yahrzeit or "year's time." Out of a sense of piety, individuals have created pictorial and written reminders of these dates such as this rare example. Few hand-painted calendars have survived from the late 19th century, when memorial calendars were produced commercially, largely by Jewish printing houses.

The new government 17/7/2021

7/14/2021 Haaretz.Com https://www.haaretz.com/misc/article-print-page/.premium.HIGHLIGHT-one-month-in-this-is-the-biggest-difference-about-israel-s-new-governmen… 1/5 One month in, the world sees a difference in Israel's new government Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Foreign Minister Yair Lapid have demonstrated they have an alternative set of priorities to their predecessor when it comes to foreign policy – starting with the recent trip to Amman Anshel Pfeffer | Jul. 13, 2021 | 10:09 PM | 1 Any appraisal of the new Israeli government a month into its term suffers from premature judgment. The ministers have barely got their feet under their desks, are just beginning to learn their complex briefs, and nearly all the issues and crises they’re dealing with are the legacy of the previous government. The one major exception to this is Israel’s foreign policy. From day one, the two men running this coalition government both had very clear ideas of how they intended to run Israel’s international relations. Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is very conscious of his predecessor’s image as Israel’s mega-statesman and is anxious to assume that mantle. He’s come into office with plans. And so has Bennett’s senior coalition partner, Yair Lapid. A two-headed foreign policy hasn’t often worked well in the past, certainly not since Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres in the early 1990s. So far, it seems to be working. As the true architect of the new government, Lapid knew all along this would be the job he would take while he waits out the near-two years until he replaces Bennett as premier. It was the position he wanted all along from his entry into politics in 2013, when his centrist Yesh Atid established itself overnight as the second-largest party in the Knesset. Benjamin Netanyahu stymied him when he forced him to take the finance minister’s job, in which he had no interest. Ever since Lapid was fired by Netanyahu at the end of 2014, he has tried to establish himself as Israel’s alternative foreign minister, with overseas trips, meetings with world leaders whenever he could schedule them, and interviews with the international media. At first, there was something almost risible about Lapid’s hobnobbing – especially while Netanyahu was so dominant. But gradually, he succeeded in building an international profile, rare for opposition party leaders. Most crucially, he learned the brief thoroughly before actually entering office. While it’s still early days, the contours of a Bennett-Lapid foreign policy and the nuanced change from the Netanyahu era can already be discerned.7/14/2021 Haaretz.Com https://www.haaretz.com/misc/article-print-page/.premium.HIGHLIGHT-one-month-in-this-is-the-biggest-difference-about-israel-s-new-governmen… 2/5 It can be seen in Bennett’s choice of his first international visit. While previous Israeli prime ministers were quick to fly off to Washington in their first weeks in office, Bennett instead flew discreetly to Amman, to meet King Abdullah. (The meeting took place secretly, and was first reported by Barak Ravid in Walla.) It certainly seems to have taken nearly everyone by surprise: the Jordanians at the Israeli priorities; the Israelis at Abdullah’s swift eagerness to host Bennett at his palace; and the former prime minister at his successor’s initiative. Netanyahu, anxious to denigrate Bennett as a diplomatic neophyte, was so blindsided by the move that in his rushed criticism he concocted a ridiculous false narrative, as if energy-poor Jordan is supplying oil to Iran (which is the one thing it doesn’t lack). In Amman, Bennett offered to double the water Israel pipes to Jordan over the summer – a move that Netanyahu and his proxies, who have promoted in recent years the message that “Jordan needs us much more than we need it,” attacked. Thanks to desalination plants and sewage treatment, Israel no longer suffers from water shortages. For the new government, it was a nobrainer: Why treat Jordan, a vulnerable neighbor, as an enemy? It was the first indication of a change in Israel’s foreign policy. Less grandstanding. Less picking unnecessary fights. And that’s also the reason Bennett’s staff have decided to wait until August for his trip to the White House. No one is under any illusions that Jerusalem and Washington will be seeing eye-to-eye on the Biden administration’s hopes to return to the nuclear agreement with Iran. So why allow that to overshadow the first meeting between Bennett and U.S. President Joe Biden? Arriving in Washington in mid-August means that either the United States will have agreed with the outgoing government of President Hassan Rohani on rejoining the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) or, if not, it will probably take a while before new Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who will take office on August 5, assembles his own negotiation team and engages with the Americans. If at all. On Iran in general, the new government’s policy reflects a return to that of the prime ministers before Netanyahu – Ariel Sharon and Ehud Olmert, whose policy was to speak of Iran in public as little as possible, in order to avoid the impression that Iran was Israel’s unique problem to solve rather than a problem for the whole world. Delaying the visit doesn’t mean, of course, that the new Israeli government has deprioritized the United States. Rebuilding Israel’s relations with the Democrats (as far left as the Sen. Elizabeth Warren wing of the party,7/14/2021 Haaretz.Com https://www.haaretz.com/misc/article-print-page/.premium.HIGHLIGHT-one-month-in-this-is-the-biggest-difference-about-israel-s-new-governmen… 3/5 according to one Israeli official; Sen. Bernie Sanders, Rep. Alexandria OcasioCortez and their ilk are currently considered irredeemably anti-Israel), which were all but destroyed by Netanyahu during the Trump years, is top of the foreign policy list. But the first step is to reestablish points of contact. Unlike the previous government, where the entire U.S. file was run from the Prime Minister’s Office, now there’s a clear division: Bennett’s office deals with the White House. After years in which it was marginalized, the Foreign Ministry under Lapid has resumed its traditional role of working with the State Department (Lapid’s first overseas trip last month was to meet Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Rome) and Congress. Even the much maligned Diaspora Affairs Ministry has a role to play, with Labor’s Nachman Shai – the new minister and a former head of the Jewish Federations of North America office in Israel – tasked with rebuilding ties with the liberal majority of American Jewry (aided by Labor MK Gilad Kariv, the first Reform rabbi in the Knesset). Clear departure Another important diplomatic arena where the new government’s different approach is already clear is Europe. The new legislation in Poland making it almost impossible for Polish Holocaust survivors and their heirs to claim Jewish property that was stolen during the war gave Lapid, who issued a series of fierce condemnations, an opportunity to make a clear departure from the Netanyahu policy of helping like-minded populist leaders in Europe to whitewash their nations’ historic records. Netanyahu assiduously courted the Visegrád Group – the European Union’s “odd squad” of Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, all led mainly by right-wing populists with whom he found common cause. He relied on them to oppose any criticism of Israel in the EU institutions and in return gave them, especially Poland and Hungary, cover from criticism of any antisemitic tendencies. Lapid has instead embarked this week on a charm offensive in Brussels, where he addressed EU foreign ministers at their monthly Foreign Affairs Council. Bennett and Lapid are both agreed that in their ideologically diverse coalition, there is little of substance they can change in Israel’s most crucial foreign policy issue: the future of the conflict with the Palestinians. But they both believe Israel has a rare window of opportunity to make gains on other issues in the immediate “post-Netanyahu” era.7/14/2021 Haaretz.Com https://www.haaretz.com/misc/article-print-page/.premium.HIGHLIGHT-one-month-in-this-is-the-biggest-difference-about-israel-s-new-governmen… 4/5 The fact that right-wing, centrist and left-wing parties have managed to come together in one coalition to replace a long-serving populist leader like Netanyahu makes the Bennett-Lapid government an intriguing “experiment” for non-populist leaders, who would like to see it emulated in other countries. As a result, they hope it could overcome obstacles to restarting negotiations on a new association agreement, which establishes the parameters of Israel’s relations with the EU. In his Brussels address, Lapid tried to maneuver within the new government’s narrow parameters, telling the foreign ministers that “it is no secret that I support a two-state solution. Unfortunately, there is no current plan for this.” Instead he will try, with Bennett’s backing, to convince the Europeans that while no diplomatic progress with the Palestinians is on the table, the new government is serious about doing whatever it can to improve the economic situation, both in the West Bank and Gaza. In essence, this isn’t that different to Netanyahu’s official position. Bennett and Lapid, however, hope they can change the mood music by proving that they’re actually going to follow through on the economic promises. Their first attempt to do so, by authorizing the transfer of Israel’s surplus COVID-19 vaccines to the Palestinians, blew up when the Palestinian Authority backed out of the agreement at the last moment, citing the fact that the vaccines were about to expire. The next attempt is trying to work out a new United Nations-administered scheme for providing the bimonthly $30 million of Qatari aid money to Gaza, instead of the previous arrangement where Hamas just got it in cash. Another nuanced change in the new government’s foreign policy is its more suspicious attitude toward China – though Israeli officials are less eager to be drawn on this. The shift already began in the Netanyahu era, though it took significant pressure from the Trump administration to get him to tamp down Israel’s openness to Chinese investment in various infrastructure programs. Even then, he was reluctant to pass along guidelines to Israeli companies. One overt sign of the new government’s firmer policy was its decision last month to join 40 other nations at the UN Human Rights Council in condemnation of China’s persecution of the Muslim Uighur minority in Xinjiang. Israel had in the past resisted Western pressure to join similar condemnations. The policy on China has shifted, but is unlikely to change regarding Russia, which, unlike China, has a significant military presence on Israel’s border7/14/2021 Haaretz.Com https://www.haaretz.com/misc/article-print-page/.premium.HIGHLIGHT-one-month-in-this-is-the-biggest-difference-about-israel-s-new-governmen… 5/5 with Syria and a large Jewish community. For now at least, Bennett and Lapid are well coordinated. Members of their staff speak glowingly about each other. The professionals in the Foreign Ministry are “back at the table,” for the first time in years: A list of 35 senior overseas appointments that was blocked by Netanyahu for months was greenlighted immediately, and the ambassadors are even allowed to be on the phone calls between Bennett and other world leaders. But if precedent – and not just during the Netanyahu years – is anything to go by, tensions between the prime minister and a foreign minister with a mind of their own, and the political power to back it up, are inevitable. Whether it’s over a concession to the Palestinians, other matters of policy or due to attempts by interlocutors to engage and exploit them separately, the relationship between Bennett and Lapid is a potential minefield. One area where it could explode is over the fraught ties with Turkey, where President Recep Tayyip Erdogan made his own play this week by calling new Israeli President Isaac Herzog and chatting for 40 minutes. Lapid has long harbored the desire for Israel to recognize the Armenian genocide, and is expected to try to do so at some point over the next two years. No previous Israeli government even considered this and he will face staunch opposition from various parts of the Israeli security establishment, who will argue that such a symbolic move will endanger Israel’s vital interests not just in Turkey but in Azerbaijan as well. On whose side will Bennett come down? And will differences over foreign policy end up jeopardizing the most important relationship in this fragile coalition

A Jewish History Book: Jews in American Wars

This entry is part 1 of 1 in the series Misc. Book Scans

I found this old Jewish war history book at a thrift store. It’s about the history of Jews and how they helped out in American Wars, published in 1943 in the midst of World War II and Hitler’s rampage across Europe. I am finding it a fascinating historical document to skim thru. It was published by the Jewish War Veterans of the USA and the cover is only slightly worn. It appears to be public domain, so give me encouragement and I might scan the rest!

A quote from the beginning of this Jewish history book:

“Anti-Jewish propaganda is a danger to the United States, and our best protection is the truth”.

  PS: This is the 1943 third printing by  J. George Fredman and Louis A. Falk.

Microreview: Bookshelves

“This round is open to interpretation, so don’t let the word bookshelves stop you. Whether your collection is big or small, physical or digital, your parents’ or from the library, it counts as a bookshelf here. To play: answer the prompts and tag your friends to do the same. Optional: use #microreview and check out @microreviews for “rules,” reviews, and more!”

Thanks for the tag @bibliophilecats​, and thanks @microreviews for making the challenge!

What genres or types of books dominate your shelf? My bookshelves are divided by topic: psychology + large books + some misc, Jewish topics, criminology + classics, Warriors books, politics, ancient history, misc, and comics.

What do you wish you had more of? I’ve got a pretty good balance of all the topics I’m most interested in, I’d probably just want more books of all types.

Smallest book? Largest book? For smallest book I’ll go with physical size, I have a little Australian English Dictionary I got in primary school and still have for some reason. I’ve got quite a few large sized books (encyclopedias etc) but the longest book I have is my Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe. The angle/distance of the photos below distorts it a bit, but the Poe book is actually a lot bigger than the dictionary.

Oldest book? Newest book? My oldest book is called Fifty True Stories Stranger Than Fiction, which was printed in 1936.

The newest book I have is How To Believe, printed in 2016.

Does anything live there besides books?  Usually there’s a few soft toys, miscellaneous items, and pieces of stationery on the shelves, but I cleared them off for the photos as they got in the way of the books.

To do this microreview, I tag @authorsophiawhitte, @wefallintobookland, @youthbookreview, and @lornaslibrary. Apologies if anyone tagged here has already done it, I find it hard to keep a track of everyone���s!

Rosh Hashanah postcard, Warsaw, late 1920s • Jewish Museum London

Themes of immigration were common in New Year postcards from this time, as more and more East European Jews looked to move west to America and to England.

The rhyming Yiddish message says:

Pure and light like God’s angel, In the hand, the sail and flag, Loaded full with blessings The New Year is arriving now!

The tradition of sending New Year’s greetings for the Jewish holidays dates from the 14th century; however, it was not until the mass production of printed material and affordable stationery that the practice became widespread.

Germany and Poland were the centres of production for these cards, with German printers primarily using Biblical imagery for illustrations and East European printers opting for artwork depicting scenes from day to day Jewish life. The image was often paired with a rhyme or short message in Yiddish.

Theatre Poster • Jewish Museum London

It’s Hard to be a Jew (Yiddish: Shver tsu zayn a yid) is a 1920 Yiddish-language comedy play by Sholom Aleichem about the difficulty of Jewish-Gentile relationships in the Russian Empire. It was premiered in New York in 1920, and later performed at the Grand Palais Theatre on Commercial Road, London.

During the first half of the 20th century, Yiddish theatre in London was a vibrant and popular tradition; it was of great social and cultural importance to the growing community of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe.
