"There is a Jewish principle which says that
saving life takes precedent over all religious rituals,

Col Ramon admits that he is not being particularly religious, but believes

Dear Mochin Subscribers, PM Associates and Friends,

Tomorrow night begins the first day of the eight day festival of

in a battle to preserve the Jewish spirit threatened by Greek edicts
and assimilation. [...]33_29Nov200213:20:41ESTdevor@usa.net
