THE RABBIrsquoS TURN

OPINION

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 5 2014 n WWWJEWISHSOUNDORG n JTNews

5

5775 minus one No limits

RABBI HARRY ZEITLIN Congregation Beth HarsquoAriYou donrsquot need a rabbi to

let you know which way the

wind blows mdash the world is incrisis Massacres in Syria and

Iraq and Nigeria and Mali

regional wars between Russia

and Ukraine renewed race

riots in the United States

much o the world economy

stuck in the doldrums and a

collapsing EU And Israelrsquos almost con-

stant battle or survival against terrorists

this time calling themselves Hamas

With so many urgent crises this is no

time to don blinders and willully reuse

to see our challenges our abilities and

our duties

God created an astonishingly com-

plex world as well as astonishingly com-

plex and capable creatures to partner with

Him Human beings are created ldquoBrsquotzelem

Elohimrdquo (in Godrsquos image) so i God is

ldquoKol Yacholrdquo (capable o all omnipo-

tent) we have no business placing artifi-

cial limits on ourselves (O course we are

ldquobrsquotzelemrdquo in the image of and not actu-

ally God but while we are limited most o

us both individually and institutionally

inflate these limits and then retract them

to the point that we become ineffectual)

Ultimately we will never ldquoabsolutely

knowrdquo why we were created or even why

the universe was created but our orah

does inorm us that relative to ldquoolamrdquo

the universe our job is to ldquopartnerrdquo with

the Creator to bring Creation to its ull-

est All mankind is mandated to be kind

to all living creatures to seek justice and

to live morally mdash these are the seven

Noahide mitzvot which bring one to the

threshold o humanness and civilization

As Jews wersquore also given the unique ldquotoolrdquo

o orah which contains the additional

606 mitzvot completing the 613 which

wersquore taught perorm the essential spiri-

tual unctions (beyond merely ldquocausing

no harmrdquo) that ully develop our world

and ourselves

Te mandate o what has come to be

called ldquosocial justicerdquo is just as incum-

bent on the entire Jewish people as is our

engagement with orah and mitzvot and

while each o us must specialize none o

us can opt out o any o it Contempo-

rarily you rarely see a serious mature

emphasis on mitzvah observance (which

includes studying the mitzvot and their

underlying logic and not merely blind

compliance or blind opposition) in pro-

gressive Jewish communities and institu-

tions

Likewise while many Orthodox com-

munities committed to traditional orah

study and mitzvah observance commend-

ably look out or their constit-

uencies they rarely leave their

own neighborhoods to join thelarger Jewish community in

social issues

Tere is little i any daylight

between the concepts o ldquoolam

habaMashiachrdquo and ldquoa just

worldrdquo theyrsquore different socio-

logical labels or the same ideal

Tis goal in terms o our human contri-

bution to it is beyond any single-pronged

approach We both need to create a just

society and also to bring an abstract and

intangible holiness ldquokedushahrdquo to the

world Additionally this highest level o

human evolution at least as it specifically

applies to the Jewish people requires that

each o us (or at least a critical mass o us)

reaches it individually

ldquoKol Yisrael arevim zeh lrsquozehrdquo (almud

Shavuot 39a) the ate o all Jews is inter-

twined is embedded into the undamen-

tal structure o reality In other words

none o us gets there until we all get there

together mdash ldquoLeave no Jew behindrdquo as it

were

One o the greatest challenges acing

our people today is that those o us who

ocus on orah and mitzvot too ofen dis-

miss Jews whose ocus is ldquoa just societyrdquo

and those Jews dismiss the ones whose

main ocus is traditional ldquoorah and mitz-

votrdquo observance Additionally we cannot

(and never have been able to) dismiss or

take or granted the survival o Israel and

o the Jewish People (which are identi-

cal) Tose who ocus on the political mil-

itary and diplomatic approaches to this

cannot ignore the other two priorities and

those ocusing on halachic or social issues

cannot turn away rom Israel especially

when she is under attack While each o

us will migrate to our strength we need

to incorporate the other considerations as

well into our efforts

Te genius o Judaism is that it reveals

reality as infinitely dimensional and it

gives us tools to work with all this beauti-

ul complexity

almud rather than merely generating

Te Rules (halachah) or relating olk-cul-

ture (aggadatah) trains us in techniques

to experience analyze and process both

empirically and intuitively directly and

by inerence associatively individually

collectively as well as in other parame-

ters all at the same time As we refine our

individual practice and experience o our

Jewish tradition we both see the world as

increasingly rich and ourselves as increas-

ingly capable

The governor was an anti-Semite

RUSSELL LIDMAN Special to JTNewsGovernor John R Rogers

enjoys a prominent place

in this state Schools arenamed afer him in Seattle

Spokane Olympia and else-

where around the state His

statue is located in Sylvester

Park in downtown Olym-

pia in ront o the Office o

the Superintendent o Public

Instruction building

Governor John R Rogers

was a noted Washington

State populist He was the

statersquos third governor serv-

ing rom 1897 through his

death in 1901 Carved in his

statue in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Park is this

quote ldquoI would make it impossible or the

covetous and avaricious to utterly impov-

erish the poor Te rich can take care o

themselvesrdquo His legacy is the ldquoBareoot

School Boy Actrdquo Tis was the basis o the

statersquos unding o public education reliev-

ing localities o a burden many could not

support Its aim was to guarantee unding

or an adequate education or children in

even the statersquos poorest areas o this day

this act is cited by advocates when they

express concern about the statersquos declin-

ing level o unding o public education

Te populists anticipated the ldquoOccupyrdquo

movement by over a century with their

ocus on the impacts on the typical Amer-

ican armer and worker o Wall Street

and o other domestic and oreign ldquorichrdquo

people

John R Rogers ocused his attention on

a particular group that in his view brought

about the first US great depression o the

1890s Jews

Here was the cause o the economic

distress in his 1892 book ldquoTe Irrepress-

ible Conflictrdquo

ldquoAs I write a daily paper o today lies

on the desk At the head o one the col-

umns I see a big lsquoscare headrsquo which reads

in startling letters MORE GOLD MAY

GO Tus the people who deal in money

are warned rom Europe that the money

market is to be made closer and tighter

Gold is shipped to Europe and the ability

o our people to buy and sell or exchange

labor and the products o labor is to be

still urther reduced by making all money

scarcer and harder to get he excuse

offered is lsquoEurope wants ou

Goldrsquo And because Europe mdash

or the Jewish Money Lords the world mdash can thus intere

in American trade and tak

Port protesters block nothing but traffic

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews CorrespondentChanting ldquoLong live Palestinerdquo and

ldquoFree Free Palestinerdquo underscored by a

mobile sound system playing a booming

pro-Palestinian political mixtape nearly

150 marchers came to erminal 18 at the

Spokane Street Fishing Area in Seattle onAugust 25 to stop longshoremen rom

reporting or their shifs and unloading

the ZIM Chicago an international Israeli

vessel that had been delay ed but not

thwarted rom delivering its cargo to the

Port o Oakland in Caliornia the previ-

ous week

ldquoTe ports the police the city the

mayor and the governorrsquos oice mdash

nobody supported the actionrdquo Andy

David Israelrsquos consul general or the

Pacific Northwest in San Francisco told

JNews ldquoTey are hurting a lot o Ameri-

cans and merchantsrdquo

According to David two ships arrived

on the day o the ldquoBlock the Boatrdquo protest

in Oakland One was unloaded However

the Israeli ship wasnrsquot until day our o the

delay and there was damage to urniture

coffee chemicals and other cargo he said

He lays the blame squarely at the eet

o that cityrsquos local International Longshore

and Warehouse Union

ldquoTe ILWU was cooperating with the

protesters and therersquos enough proo o

thatrdquo David said ldquoTe local branch issued

a statement saying it was not sae or the

workers to go past the line Tey were

offered to be bused in but they reused

When they were unloading they took

lunch breaks and didnrsquot come backrdquo

David said the eamsterrsquos Union

issued its own press release condemning

the protest

Local and national leaders ear that

uture disruption at the Port would result

in job losses and devastation or small

businesses already experiencing financial

hardship

ldquo I t rsquo s a

c o w a r d l y

tacticrdquo said

David ldquoand

it hurt mer-

c h a n t s e x p o r t e r s

truck drivers

gas stat ion

owners and

w a r e h o u s e

workersrdquo

Protesters

tried to block

the Chicago

when it arrived

at the Port o acoma on Aug 23 but

workers bypassed the crowd and unloaded

it rom another location surprising the

protesters

In Seattle on Aug 25 Block the Boat

only succeeded in blocking the public

roadway adjacent to the terminal imped-

ing cargo-filled trucks and mothers with

their kids rom driving through

Protesters also blocked the three vehi-

cle entrances to the dock restrained by a

ormidable and mobile Seattle police pres-

ence that ollowed the moving crowd on

bikes in cars and in SUVs

ldquoWorkers reported or work and all o

the cargo that was going to be handled was

handledrdquo Peter McGraw the support and

real estate supervisor or the Port o Seat-

tle told JNews ldquoTey arrived and lef on

schedulerdquo

McGraw said that port police were not

involved in this action and that no Port o

Seattle property was trespassed

ldquoIn cases like this we work with our

partner law enorcement agencies and

that includes the Seattle Police Depart-

mentrdquo he said

Still organizers claimed victory

ldquoOur goal is to prevent business as

usualrdquo Nada Elia one o the organizers o

Block the Boat told JNews Elia said the

crowd was a coalition o pro-Palestinian

groups including Jewish Voice or Peace

and national boycott divest and sanction

supporters in Seattle ldquoWe want to prevent

the workers rom coming to their shif

We are in solidarity with Gaza because it

is under an illegal blockade and cannot use

its portsrdquo

Elia said she had hoped to galvanize a

showing o 300 activists mdash the number she

said the group tallied in acoma two days

beore but a Block the Boat press release

reported the number to be closer to 150

Ed Mast another protest organizer and

an activist in the Seattle Mideast Aware-

ness Campaign the organization respon-

sible or placing ads on billboards and

Metro buses that call or the US to pull its

aid to Israel kept the protesters moving

and motivated as they aced down police

along their path and at their destinations

ldquoAny delay works because itrsquos about

sending the messagerdquo said Mast who also

said he believed the action by the crowd

accomplished its goals

Craig and Cindy Corrie o Olympia

the parents o Rachel Corrie who died in a

2003 protest in Gaza came to Seattle

support Block the Boat

Corrie said their pro-Palestinian mov

ment would like to enlist more suppo

rom the unions

ldquoI think there needs to be an expense

Israelrdquo he said ldquoJust like in South Aric

this has gone too ar Te US and Isra

are becoming more isolatedrdquo

One protester was arrested and w

bailed out later that evening

Jonathan Sword 39 o Seattle said h

rejects the use o anti-Semitic and ant

police overtones oten ound in the

kinds o protests but agrees with the

political aims

ldquoItrsquos complicated but I donrsquot thin

Israel is going to do this much longer

said Sword ldquoIt canrsquot go on like thisrdquo

hough blatantly anti-Semitic sign

had been spotted at protests at Westlak

Plaza in downtown Seattle througho

the summer the Block the Boat websi

stated explicitly that no such signs wou

be tolerated at these protests and non

appeared

Tis all the Seattle Hebrew Academy

welcomes Rabbi Daniel Loew to its ac-

ulty as principal a new position created

to bridge the schoolrsquos Judaic and general

studies

Loew comes to the Modern Ortho-dox dual-curriculum early childhood-8th

grade day school rom the Hebrew High

School o New England where he had been

head o school since 2005

Loewrsquos appointment ollows SHArsquos new

strategic plan which seeks to achieve aca-

demic excellence optimize enrollment

create a more sustainable financial model

and to expand the schoolrsquos role in the

Modern Orthodox community

ldquoWe are very determined to be the

epicenter o Modern Orthodoxyrdquo SHA

head o school Rivy Poupko Kletenik told

JNews ldquoWe want to see ourselves having

a role in the community at largerdquo

One aspect o achieving this goal is to

better bridge ldquoorah ursquomadahrdquo or Jewish

studies and general studies

ldquoTe more that we can do to bring the

two departments closer together the more

learning will happen in the classroomrdquo

Kletenik said ldquoWhat has been troubling

me or several years is the separation o

departments In the morning they learn

about Greeks mdash how great the Greeks are

In the afernoon they learn about Hanuk-

kah and how horrible the Greeks are Well

which one is itrdquo

Students end up compartmentalizing

their brains the same way their days are

compartmentalized Kletenik said

ldquoWe donrsquot want that or our kidsrdquo she

continued ldquoWe need a synthesized sel

We need someone whose two parts o their

brain are talking to each otherrdquo

As principal Loew will be the ldquocentral

addressrdquo or all teachers in the K-8 pro-

gram

ldquoAs a Modern Orthodox school the

orah inorms our lives and aithulnessto our tradition is absolutely paramountrdquo

said Loew ldquoAt the same time that leaves

so much opportunity and room or learn-

ing other disciplinesrdquo

ldquoTis is big newsrdquo said Kletenik ldquoI

donrsquot know o other schools that have this

structurerdquo

Jewish day schools across the country

struggle with the financial burden placed

on amilies retaining teachers who could

earn more in the public school system

and keeping educational standards top-

notch SHArsquos strategic plan seems to be

tackling this triecta o issues by improving

the financial model educational approach

and community relationships

ldquoPeople will recognize the value o this

education and continue to invest in itrdquo said

Kletenik

Raising the quality o the education at

his previous institution is something Loew

eels proud o

ldquoTe aculty in the classrooms [is] the

ront linerdquo said Loew ldquoIrsquove been really

pleased to work with the aculty at SHA

Tey seem really passionate and dedicated

and proessional Tatrsquos really where the

success o the school lies o empower the

aculty to do what they do bestrdquo

Loew and his wie Chanie moved here

rom Hartord Conn with their five chil-

dren mdash our boys in 9th grade and under

and a 3-year-old girl Feeling it was time

or a change Loew says they were open

to anything when the job with SHA came

around He said theyrsquove been warmly wel-

comed into the community and eel privi-

leged to be here

ldquoTings just sort o ell into place in

terms o what I was looking or and wh

SHA was looking orrdquo he said ldquoTis ju

seemed to be the place where God wante

usrdquo

Thinking strategically SHA hires principal to move school forward

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

see a line o motorcycles

but lined up outside a

Jewish nursing acility mdash

you might do a double takeTat was the scene on

the sunny Sunday morn-

ing o August 24 when the ribe Seattlersquos

Jewish motorcycle club pulled up to the

Kline Galland Home

About 14 members o the ribe spent

two hours chatting with elderly residents

over coffee and donuts beore riding down

to Seward Park or the annual picnic they

sponsor or Seattle Area Jews

with Disabilities a program

o Jewish Family Service Tis

was the first time they had vis-

ited Kline Galland as a group

Te idea came rom two ribemembers who have parents

living there

Rosie Coe the only emale rider that day

visited with her mother Perla Schneider

ldquoMom were you araid when I started

riding motorcyclesrdquo Coe asked her mother

ldquoI thought you were in good handsrdquo

Schneider responded reerring to Coersquos

fianceacute Bruce Lobree who got her into the

hobby

Lobreersquos leather riding vest

yellow star with ldquonever againrdquo

written across it Another is a

Star o David that says ldquoproud

Jewish bikerrdquo And o course in

the center o his back is his own

clubrsquos patch a Star o David in

flames above it a orah scroll

ldquoWhen I heard about the

ribe it was like this camara-

derierdquo said Coe ldquoItrsquos special

because wersquore all Jews and we

all ride motorcycles Itrsquos pretty

coolrdquo

According to the JewishMotorcycle Alliance ldquohe

common thread is our religion

however membership or admit-

tance to our member clubs is

not dictated by aith or brand

o motorcycle riders o any

denomination or brand o bike

said Myles Kahn a rider and

the vice president o emple De

and we all have a common

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

OPINION

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 5 2014 n WWWJEWISHSOUNDORG n JTNews

5775 minus one No limits

RABBI HARRY ZEITLIN Congregation Beth HarsquoAriYou donrsquot need a rabbi to

let you know which way the

wind blows mdash the world is incrisis Massacres in Syria and

Iraq and Nigeria and Mali

regional wars between Russia

and Ukraine renewed race

riots in the United States

much o the world economy

stuck in the doldrums and a

collapsing EU And Israelrsquos almost con-

stant battle or survival against terrorists

this time calling themselves Hamas

With so many urgent crises this is no

time to don blinders and willully reuse

to see our challenges our abilities and

our duties

God created an astonishingly com-

plex world as well as astonishingly com-

plex and capable creatures to partner with

Him Human beings are created ldquoBrsquotzelem

Elohimrdquo (in Godrsquos image) so i God is

ldquoKol Yacholrdquo (capable o all omnipo-

tent) we have no business placing artifi-

cial limits on ourselves (O course we are

ldquobrsquotzelemrdquo in the image of and not actu-

ally God but while we are limited most o

us both individually and institutionally

inflate these limits and then retract them

to the point that we become ineffectual)

Ultimately we will never ldquoabsolutely

knowrdquo why we were created or even why

the universe was created but our orah

does inorm us that relative to ldquoolamrdquo

the universe our job is to ldquopartnerrdquo with

the Creator to bring Creation to its ull-

est All mankind is mandated to be kind

to all living creatures to seek justice and

to live morally mdash these are the seven

Noahide mitzvot which bring one to the

threshold o humanness and civilization

As Jews wersquore also given the unique ldquotoolrdquo

o orah which contains the additional

606 mitzvot completing the 613 which

wersquore taught perorm the essential spiri-

tual unctions (beyond merely ldquocausing

no harmrdquo) that ully develop our world

and ourselves

Te mandate o what has come to be

called ldquosocial justicerdquo is just as incum-

bent on the entire Jewish people as is our

engagement with orah and mitzvot and

while each o us must specialize none o

us can opt out o any o it Contempo-

rarily you rarely see a serious mature

emphasis on mitzvah observance (which

includes studying the mitzvot and their

underlying logic and not merely blind

compliance or blind opposition) in pro-

gressive Jewish communities and institu-

tions

Likewise while many Orthodox com-

munities committed to traditional orah

study and mitzvah observance commend-

ably look out or their constit-

uencies they rarely leave their

own neighborhoods to join thelarger Jewish community in

social issues

Tere is little i any daylight

between the concepts o ldquoolam

habaMashiachrdquo and ldquoa just

worldrdquo theyrsquore different socio-

logical labels or the same ideal

Tis goal in terms o our human contri-

bution to it is beyond any single-pronged

approach We both need to create a just

society and also to bring an abstract and

intangible holiness ldquokedushahrdquo to the

world Additionally this highest level o

human evolution at least as it specifically

applies to the Jewish people requires that

each o us (or at least a critical mass o us)

reaches it individually

ldquoKol Yisrael arevim zeh lrsquozehrdquo (almud

Shavuot 39a) the ate o all Jews is inter-

twined is embedded into the undamen-

tal structure o reality In other words

none o us gets there until we all get there

together mdash ldquoLeave no Jew behindrdquo as it

were

One o the greatest challenges acing

our people today is that those o us who

ocus on orah and mitzvot too ofen dis-

miss Jews whose ocus is ldquoa just societyrdquo

and those Jews dismiss the ones whose

main ocus is traditional ldquoorah and mitz-

votrdquo observance Additionally we cannot

(and never have been able to) dismiss or

take or granted the survival o Israel and

o the Jewish People (which are identi-

cal) Tose who ocus on the political mil-

itary and diplomatic approaches to this

cannot ignore the other two priorities and

those ocusing on halachic or social issues

cannot turn away rom Israel especially

when she is under attack While each o

us will migrate to our strength we need

to incorporate the other considerations as

well into our efforts

Te genius o Judaism is that it reveals

reality as infinitely dimensional and it

gives us tools to work with all this beauti-

ul complexity

almud rather than merely generating

Te Rules (halachah) or relating olk-cul-

ture (aggadatah) trains us in techniques

to experience analyze and process both

empirically and intuitively directly and

by inerence associatively individually

collectively as well as in other parame-

ters all at the same time As we refine our

individual practice and experience o our

Jewish tradition we both see the world as

increasingly rich and ourselves as increas-

ingly capable

The governor was an anti-Semite

RUSSELL LIDMAN Special to JTNewsGovernor John R Rogers

enjoys a prominent place

in this state Schools arenamed afer him in Seattle

Spokane Olympia and else-

where around the state His

statue is located in Sylvester

Park in downtown Olym-

pia in ront o the Office o

the Superintendent o Public

Instruction building

Governor John R Rogers

was a noted Washington

State populist He was the

statersquos third governor serv-

ing rom 1897 through his

death in 1901 Carved in his

statue in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Park is this

quote ldquoI would make it impossible or the

covetous and avaricious to utterly impov-

erish the poor Te rich can take care o

themselvesrdquo His legacy is the ldquoBareoot

School Boy Actrdquo Tis was the basis o the

statersquos unding o public education reliev-

ing localities o a burden many could not

support Its aim was to guarantee unding

or an adequate education or children in

even the statersquos poorest areas o this day

this act is cited by advocates when they

express concern about the statersquos declin-

ing level o unding o public education

Te populists anticipated the ldquoOccupyrdquo

movement by over a century with their

ocus on the impacts on the typical Amer-

ican armer and worker o Wall Street

and o other domestic and oreign ldquorichrdquo

people

John R Rogers ocused his attention on

a particular group that in his view brought

about the first US great depression o the

1890s Jews

Here was the cause o the economic

distress in his 1892 book ldquoTe Irrepress-

ible Conflictrdquo

ldquoAs I write a daily paper o today lies

on the desk At the head o one the col-

umns I see a big lsquoscare headrsquo which reads

in startling letters MORE GOLD MAY

GO Tus the people who deal in money

are warned rom Europe that the money

market is to be made closer and tighter

Gold is shipped to Europe and the ability

o our people to buy and sell or exchange

labor and the products o labor is to be

still urther reduced by making all money

scarcer and harder to get he excuse

offered is lsquoEurope wants ou

Goldrsquo And because Europe mdash

or the Jewish Money Lords the world mdash can thus intere

in American trade and tak

rom the American labor

his opportunity to labor an

reduce the value o Amer

can property is reason enoug

or the establishment o a

American system not depen

dent upon the Jews o eith

London or New Yorkrdquo

Tis quote is mild com

pared to his expression o ho

tility elsewhere in this sam

volume

ldquoAt the present time the people

the United States conront a world-wid

nitude that chattel slavery was mdash the pr

Does John R Rogers deserve a prom

inent place in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Par

Does his revolting anti-Semitism o ov

120 years ago negate the importance

his legislative accomplishment Sure

he deserves some acknowledgment o

his legislative achievements which hav

had a significant impact on state un

ing o public education However Gove

nor Rogersrsquo anti-Semitism in my view h

been too long overlooked

Look at the Rogers biography on Wik

pedia as an example Tere is no mentio

o him as an anti-Semite Go back to th

first biography o the statersquos governor

ldquoGovernors o Washington erritori

Port protesters block nothing but traffic

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews CorrespondentChanting ldquoLong live Palestinerdquo and

ldquoFree Free Palestinerdquo underscored by a

mobile sound system playing a booming

pro-Palestinian political mixtape nearly

150 marchers came to erminal 18 at the

Spokane Street Fishing Area in Seattle onAugust 25 to stop longshoremen rom

reporting or their shifs and unloading

the ZIM Chicago an international Israeli

vessel that had been delay ed but not

thwarted rom delivering its cargo to the

Port o Oakland in Caliornia the previ-

ous week

ldquoTe ports the police the city the

mayor and the governorrsquos oice mdash

nobody supported the actionrdquo Andy

David Israelrsquos consul general or the

Pacific Northwest in San Francisco told

JNews ldquoTey are hurting a lot o Ameri-

cans and merchantsrdquo

According to David two ships arrived

on the day o the ldquoBlock the Boatrdquo protest

in Oakland One was unloaded However

the Israeli ship wasnrsquot until day our o the

delay and there was damage to urniture

coffee chemicals and other cargo he said

He lays the blame squarely at the eet

o that cityrsquos local International Longshore

and Warehouse Union

ldquoTe ILWU was cooperating with the

protesters and therersquos enough proo o

thatrdquo David said ldquoTe local branch issued

a statement saying it was not sae or the

workers to go past the line Tey were

offered to be bused in but they reused

When they were unloading they took

lunch breaks and didnrsquot come backrdquo

David said the eamsterrsquos Union

issued its own press release condemning

the protest

Local and national leaders ear that

uture disruption at the Port would result

in job losses and devastation or small

businesses already experiencing financial

hardship

ldquo I t rsquo s a

c o w a r d l y

tacticrdquo said

David ldquoand

it hurt mer-

c h a n t s e x p o r t e r s

truck drivers

gas stat ion

owners and

w a r e h o u s e

workersrdquo

Protesters

tried to block

the Chicago

when it arrived

at the Port o acoma on Aug 23 but

workers bypassed the crowd and unloaded

it rom another location surprising the

protesters

In Seattle on Aug 25 Block the Boat

only succeeded in blocking the public

roadway adjacent to the terminal imped-

ing cargo-filled trucks and mothers with

their kids rom driving through

Protesters also blocked the three vehi-

cle entrances to the dock restrained by a

ormidable and mobile Seattle police pres-

ence that ollowed the moving crowd on

bikes in cars and in SUVs

ldquoWorkers reported or work and all o

the cargo that was going to be handled was

handledrdquo Peter McGraw the support and

real estate supervisor or the Port o Seat-

tle told JNews ldquoTey arrived and lef on

schedulerdquo

McGraw said that port police were not

involved in this action and that no Port o

Seattle property was trespassed

ldquoIn cases like this we work with our

partner law enorcement agencies and

that includes the Seattle Police Depart-

mentrdquo he said

Still organizers claimed victory

ldquoOur goal is to prevent business as

usualrdquo Nada Elia one o the organizers o

Block the Boat told JNews Elia said the

crowd was a coalition o pro-Palestinian

groups including Jewish Voice or Peace

and national boycott divest and sanction

supporters in Seattle ldquoWe want to prevent

the workers rom coming to their shif

We are in solidarity with Gaza because it

is under an illegal blockade and cannot use

its portsrdquo

Elia said she had hoped to galvanize a

showing o 300 activists mdash the number she

said the group tallied in acoma two days

beore but a Block the Boat press release

reported the number to be closer to 150

Ed Mast another protest organizer and

an activist in the Seattle Mideast Aware-

ness Campaign the organization respon-

sible or placing ads on billboards and

Metro buses that call or the US to pull its

aid to Israel kept the protesters moving

and motivated as they aced down police

along their path and at their destinations

ldquoAny delay works because itrsquos about

sending the messagerdquo said Mast who also

said he believed the action by the crowd

accomplished its goals

Craig and Cindy Corrie o Olympia

the parents o Rachel Corrie who died in a

2003 protest in Gaza came to Seattle

support Block the Boat

Corrie said their pro-Palestinian mov

ment would like to enlist more suppo

rom the unions

ldquoI think there needs to be an expense

Israelrdquo he said ldquoJust like in South Aric

this has gone too ar Te US and Isra

are becoming more isolatedrdquo

One protester was arrested and w

bailed out later that evening

Jonathan Sword 39 o Seattle said h

rejects the use o anti-Semitic and ant

police overtones oten ound in the

kinds o protests but agrees with the

political aims

ldquoItrsquos complicated but I donrsquot thin

Israel is going to do this much longer

said Sword ldquoIt canrsquot go on like thisrdquo

hough blatantly anti-Semitic sign

had been spotted at protests at Westlak

Plaza in downtown Seattle througho

stated explicitly that no such signs wou

be tolerated at these protests and non

Tis all the Seattle Hebrew Academy

welcomes Rabbi Daniel Loew to its ac-

ulty as principal a new position created

to bridge the schoolrsquos Judaic and general

studies

Loew comes to the Modern Ortho-dox dual-curriculum early childhood-8th

grade day school rom the Hebrew High

School o New England where he had been

head o school since 2005

Loewrsquos appointment ollows SHArsquos new

strategic plan which seeks to achieve aca-

demic excellence optimize enrollment

create a more sustainable financial model

and to expand the schoolrsquos role in the

Modern Orthodox community

ldquoWe are very determined to be the

epicenter o Modern Orthodoxyrdquo SHA

head o school Rivy Poupko Kletenik told

JNews ldquoWe want to see ourselves having

a role in the community at largerdquo

One aspect o achieving this goal is to

better bridge ldquoorah ursquomadahrdquo or Jewish

studies and general studies

ldquoTe more that we can do to bring the

two departments closer together the more

learning will happen in the classroomrdquo

Kletenik said ldquoWhat has been troubling

me or several years is the separation o

departments In the morning they learn

about Greeks mdash how great the Greeks are

In the afernoon they learn about Hanuk-

kah and how horrible the Greeks are Well

which one is itrdquo

Students end up compartmentalizing

their brains the same way their days are

compartmentalized Kletenik said

ldquoWe donrsquot want that or our kidsrdquo she

continued ldquoWe need a synthesized sel

We need someone whose two parts o their

brain are talking to each otherrdquo

As principal Loew will be the ldquocentral

addressrdquo or all teachers in the K-8 pro-

gram

ldquoAs a Modern Orthodox school the

orah inorms our lives and aithulnessto our tradition is absolutely paramountrdquo

said Loew ldquoAt the same time that leaves

so much opportunity and room or learn-

ing other disciplinesrdquo

ldquoTis is big newsrdquo said Kletenik ldquoI

donrsquot know o other schools that have this

structurerdquo

Jewish day schools across the country

struggle with the financial burden placed

on amilies retaining teachers who could

earn more in the public school system

and keeping educational standards top-

notch SHArsquos strategic plan seems to be

tackling this triecta o issues by improving

the financial model educational approach

and community relationships

ldquoPeople will recognize the value o this

education and continue to invest in itrdquo said

Kletenik

Raising the quality o the education at

his previous institution is something Loew

eels proud o

ldquoTe aculty in the classrooms [is] the

ront linerdquo said Loew ldquoIrsquove been really

pleased to work with the aculty at SHA

Tey seem really passionate and dedicated

and proessional Tatrsquos really where the

success o the school lies o empower the

aculty to do what they do bestrdquo

Loew and his wie Chanie moved here

rom Hartord Conn with their five chil-

dren mdash our boys in 9th grade and under

and a 3-year-old girl Feeling it was time

or a change Loew says they were open

to anything when the job with SHA came

around He said theyrsquove been warmly wel-

comed into the community and eel privi-

leged to be here

ldquoTings just sort o ell into place in

terms o what I was looking or and wh

SHA was looking orrdquo he said ldquoTis ju

seemed to be the place where God wante

usrdquo

Thinking strategically SHA hires principal to move school forward

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

the leadership management director AIPAC in Houston and Seattle She w

responsible or educating the commun

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

lived on a kibbutz in Northern Israel whe

she assisted the resource developmen

department at Kinneret College to intr

duce itsel to the English speaking world

Pinkseldrsquos development experien

began at the Hillel at ulane University

Pay attention A simple discovery

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

Temple Beth Hatfiloh in Olympia

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Local prof tackles the shifting sands of the Middle East

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 5 2014 n WWWJEWISHSOUNDORG n JTNews

5775 minus one No limits

RABBI HARRY ZEITLIN Congregation Beth HarsquoAriYou donrsquot need a rabbi to

let you know which way the

wind blows mdash the world is incrisis Massacres in Syria and

Iraq and Nigeria and Mali

regional wars between Russia

and Ukraine renewed race

riots in the United States

much o the world economy

stuck in the doldrums and a

collapsing EU And Israelrsquos almost con-

stant battle or survival against terrorists

this time calling themselves Hamas

With so many urgent crises this is no

time to don blinders and willully reuse

to see our challenges our abilities and

our duties

God created an astonishingly com-

plex world as well as astonishingly com-

plex and capable creatures to partner with

Him Human beings are created ldquoBrsquotzelem

Elohimrdquo (in Godrsquos image) so i God is

ldquoKol Yacholrdquo (capable o all omnipo-

tent) we have no business placing artifi-

cial limits on ourselves (O course we are

ldquobrsquotzelemrdquo in the image of and not actu-

ally God but while we are limited most o

us both individually and institutionally

inflate these limits and then retract them

to the point that we become ineffectual)

Ultimately we will never ldquoabsolutely

knowrdquo why we were created or even why

the universe was created but our orah

does inorm us that relative to ldquoolamrdquo

the universe our job is to ldquopartnerrdquo with

the Creator to bring Creation to its ull-

est All mankind is mandated to be kind

to all living creatures to seek justice and

to live morally mdash these are the seven

Noahide mitzvot which bring one to the

threshold o humanness and civilization

As Jews wersquore also given the unique ldquotoolrdquo

o orah which contains the additional

606 mitzvot completing the 613 which

wersquore taught perorm the essential spiri-

tual unctions (beyond merely ldquocausing

no harmrdquo) that ully develop our world

and ourselves

Te mandate o what has come to be

called ldquosocial justicerdquo is just as incum-

bent on the entire Jewish people as is our

engagement with orah and mitzvot and

while each o us must specialize none o

us can opt out o any o it Contempo-

rarily you rarely see a serious mature

emphasis on mitzvah observance (which

includes studying the mitzvot and their

underlying logic and not merely blind

compliance or blind opposition) in pro-

gressive Jewish communities and institu-

tions

Likewise while many Orthodox com-

munities committed to traditional orah

study and mitzvah observance commend-

ably look out or their constit-

uencies they rarely leave their

own neighborhoods to join thelarger Jewish community in

social issues

Tere is little i any daylight

between the concepts o ldquoolam

habaMashiachrdquo and ldquoa just

worldrdquo theyrsquore different socio-

logical labels or the same ideal

Tis goal in terms o our human contri-

bution to it is beyond any single-pronged

approach We both need to create a just

society and also to bring an abstract and

intangible holiness ldquokedushahrdquo to the

world Additionally this highest level o

human evolution at least as it specifically

applies to the Jewish people requires that

each o us (or at least a critical mass o us)

reaches it individually

ldquoKol Yisrael arevim zeh lrsquozehrdquo (almud

Shavuot 39a) the ate o all Jews is inter-

twined is embedded into the undamen-

tal structure o reality In other words

none o us gets there until we all get there

together mdash ldquoLeave no Jew behindrdquo as it

were

One o the greatest challenges acing

our people today is that those o us who

ocus on orah and mitzvot too ofen dis-

miss Jews whose ocus is ldquoa just societyrdquo

and those Jews dismiss the ones whose

main ocus is traditional ldquoorah and mitz-

votrdquo observance Additionally we cannot

(and never have been able to) dismiss or

take or granted the survival o Israel and

o the Jewish People (which are identi-

cal) Tose who ocus on the political mil-

itary and diplomatic approaches to this

cannot ignore the other two priorities and

those ocusing on halachic or social issues

cannot turn away rom Israel especially

when she is under attack While each o

us will migrate to our strength we need

to incorporate the other considerations as

well into our efforts

Te genius o Judaism is that it reveals

reality as infinitely dimensional and it

gives us tools to work with all this beauti-

ul complexity

almud rather than merely generating

Te Rules (halachah) or relating olk-cul-

ture (aggadatah) trains us in techniques

to experience analyze and process both

empirically and intuitively directly and

by inerence associatively individually

collectively as well as in other parame-

ters all at the same time As we refine our

individual practice and experience o our

Jewish tradition we both see the world as

increasingly rich and ourselves as increas-

ingly capable

The governor was an anti-Semite

RUSSELL LIDMAN Special to JTNewsGovernor John R Rogers

enjoys a prominent place

in this state Schools arenamed afer him in Seattle

Spokane Olympia and else-

where around the state His

statue is located in Sylvester

Park in downtown Olym-

pia in ront o the Office o

the Superintendent o Public

Instruction building

Governor John R Rogers

was a noted Washington

State populist He was the

statersquos third governor serv-

ing rom 1897 through his

death in 1901 Carved in his

statue in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Park is this

quote ldquoI would make it impossible or the

covetous and avaricious to utterly impov-

erish the poor Te rich can take care o

themselvesrdquo His legacy is the ldquoBareoot

School Boy Actrdquo Tis was the basis o the

statersquos unding o public education reliev-

ing localities o a burden many could not

support Its aim was to guarantee unding

or an adequate education or children in

even the statersquos poorest areas o this day

this act is cited by advocates when they

express concern about the statersquos declin-

ing level o unding o public education

Te populists anticipated the ldquoOccupyrdquo

movement by over a century with their

ocus on the impacts on the typical Amer-

ican armer and worker o Wall Street

and o other domestic and oreign ldquorichrdquo

people

John R Rogers ocused his attention on

a particular group that in his view brought

about the first US great depression o the

1890s Jews

Here was the cause o the economic

distress in his 1892 book ldquoTe Irrepress-

ible Conflictrdquo

ldquoAs I write a daily paper o today lies

on the desk At the head o one the col-

umns I see a big lsquoscare headrsquo which reads

in startling letters MORE GOLD MAY

GO Tus the people who deal in money

are warned rom Europe that the money

market is to be made closer and tighter

Gold is shipped to Europe and the ability

o our people to buy and sell or exchange

labor and the products o labor is to be

still urther reduced by making all money

scarcer and harder to get he excuse

offered is lsquoEurope wants ou

Goldrsquo And because Europe mdash

or the Jewish Money Lords the world mdash can thus intere

in American trade and tak

rom the American labor

his opportunity to labor an

reduce the value o Amer

can property is reason enoug

or the establishment o a

American system not depen

dent upon the Jews o eith

London or New Yorkrdquo

Tis quote is mild com

pared to his expression o ho

tility elsewhere in this sam

volume

ldquoAt the present time the people

the United States conront a world-wid

and world-long evil o ar greater ma

nitude that chattel slavery was mdash the pr

vate monopoly o moneyhellip [I]ts slee

and prosperous agents stand high in eve

the highest seats in our synagogues T

vague yet potent orce lsquogood societyrsquo

controlled by it legislation has listene

painully or its lightest whisper the ba

the bench and pulpit have becomehellipme

minions registering Mammonrsquos decree

Does John R Rogers deserve a prom

inent place in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Par

Does his revolting anti-Semitism o ov

120 years ago negate the importance

his legislative accomplishment Sure

he deserves some acknowledgment o

his legislative achievements which hav

had a significant impact on state un

ing o public education However Gove

nor Rogersrsquo anti-Semitism in my view h

been too long overlooked

Look at the Rogers biography on Wik

pedia as an example Tere is no mentio

o him as an anti-Semite Go back to th

first biography o the statersquos governor

ldquoGovernors o Washington erritori

and Staterdquo written by University o Wash

ington proessor Edmond Meany in 191

and no mention o Rogersrsquos anti-Semitis

appears there

What to do about the essentially una

knowledged anti-Semitism o one o th

seeming heroes o our statersquos early year

I have been mulling this over or a coup

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews CorrespondentChanting ldquoLong live Palestinerdquo and

ldquoFree Free Palestinerdquo underscored by a

mobile sound system playing a booming

pro-Palestinian political mixtape nearly

150 marchers came to erminal 18 at the

Spokane Street Fishing Area in Seattle onAugust 25 to stop longshoremen rom

reporting or their shifs and unloading

the ZIM Chicago an international Israeli

vessel that had been delay ed but not

thwarted rom delivering its cargo to the

Port o Oakland in Caliornia the previ-

ous week

ldquoTe ports the police the city the

mayor and the governorrsquos oice mdash

nobody supported the actionrdquo Andy

David Israelrsquos consul general or the

Pacific Northwest in San Francisco told

JNews ldquoTey are hurting a lot o Ameri-

cans and merchantsrdquo

According to David two ships arrived

on the day o the ldquoBlock the Boatrdquo protest

in Oakland One was unloaded However

the Israeli ship wasnrsquot until day our o the

delay and there was damage to urniture

coffee chemicals and other cargo he said

He lays the blame squarely at the eet

o that cityrsquos local International Longshore

and Warehouse Union

ldquoTe ILWU was cooperating with the

protesters and therersquos enough proo o

thatrdquo David said ldquoTe local branch issued

a statement saying it was not sae or the

workers to go past the line Tey were

offered to be bused in but they reused

When they were unloading they took

lunch breaks and didnrsquot come backrdquo

David said the eamsterrsquos Union

issued its own press release condemning

the protest

Local and national leaders ear that

uture disruption at the Port would result

in job losses and devastation or small

businesses already experiencing financial

hardship

ldquo I t rsquo s a

c o w a r d l y

tacticrdquo said

David ldquoand

it hurt mer-

c h a n t s e x p o r t e r s

truck drivers

gas stat ion

owners and

w a r e h o u s e

workersrdquo

Protesters

tried to block

the Chicago

when it arrived

at the Port o acoma on Aug 23 but

workers bypassed the crowd and unloaded

it rom another location surprising the

protesters

In Seattle on Aug 25 Block the Boat

only succeeded in blocking the public

roadway adjacent to the terminal imped-

ing cargo-filled trucks and mothers with

their kids rom driving through

Protesters also blocked the three vehi-

cle entrances to the dock restrained by a

ormidable and mobile Seattle police pres-

ence that ollowed the moving crowd on

bikes in cars and in SUVs

ldquoWorkers reported or work and all o

the cargo that was going to be handled was

handledrdquo Peter McGraw the support and

real estate supervisor or the Port o Seat-

tle told JNews ldquoTey arrived and lef on

schedulerdquo

McGraw said that port police were not

involved in this action and that no Port o

Seattle property was trespassed

ldquoIn cases like this we work with our

partner law enorcement agencies and

that includes the Seattle Police Depart-

mentrdquo he said

Still organizers claimed victory

ldquoOur goal is to prevent business as

usualrdquo Nada Elia one o the organizers o

Block the Boat told JNews Elia said the

crowd was a coalition o pro-Palestinian

groups including Jewish Voice or Peace

and national boycott divest and sanction

supporters in Seattle ldquoWe want to prevent

the workers rom coming to their shif

We are in solidarity with Gaza because it

is under an illegal blockade and cannot use

its portsrdquo

Elia said she had hoped to galvanize a

showing o 300 activists mdash the number she

said the group tallied in acoma two days

beore but a Block the Boat press release

reported the number to be closer to 150

Ed Mast another protest organizer and

an activist in the Seattle Mideast Aware-

ness Campaign the organization respon-

sible or placing ads on billboards and

Metro buses that call or the US to pull its

aid to Israel kept the protesters moving

and motivated as they aced down police

along their path and at their destinations

ldquoAny delay works because itrsquos about

sending the messagerdquo said Mast who also

said he believed the action by the crowd

accomplished its goals

Craig and Cindy Corrie o Olympia

the parents o Rachel Corrie who died in a

2003 protest in Gaza came to Seattle

support Block the Boat

Corrie said their pro-Palestinian mov

ment would like to enlist more suppo

rom the unions

ldquoI think there needs to be an expense

Israelrdquo he said ldquoJust like in South Aric

this has gone too ar Te US and Isra

are becoming more isolatedrdquo

One protester was arrested and w

bailed out later that evening

Jonathan Sword 39 o Seattle said h

rejects the use o anti-Semitic and ant

police overtones oten ound in the

kinds o protests but agrees with the

political aims

ldquoItrsquos complicated but I donrsquot thin

Israel is going to do this much longer

said Sword ldquoIt canrsquot go on like thisrdquo

hough blatantly anti-Semitic sign

had been spotted at protests at Westlak

Plaza in downtown Seattle througho

the summer the Block the Boat websi

stated explicitly that no such signs wou

be tolerated at these protests and non

appeared

Tis all the Seattle Hebrew Academy

welcomes Rabbi Daniel Loew to its ac-

ulty as principal a new position created

to bridge the schoolrsquos Judaic and general

studies

Loew comes to the Modern Ortho-dox dual-curriculum early childhood-8th

grade day school rom the Hebrew High

School o New England where he had been

head o school since 2005

Loewrsquos appointment ollows SHArsquos new

strategic plan which seeks to achieve aca-

demic excellence optimize enrollment

create a more sustainable financial model

and to expand the schoolrsquos role in the

Modern Orthodox community

ldquoWe are very determined to be the

epicenter o Modern Orthodoxyrdquo SHA

head o school Rivy Poupko Kletenik told

JNews ldquoWe want to see ourselves having

a role in the community at largerdquo

One aspect o achieving this goal is to

better bridge ldquoorah ursquomadahrdquo or Jewish

studies and general studies

ldquoTe more that we can do to bring the

two departments closer together the more

learning will happen in the classroomrdquo

Kletenik said ldquoWhat has been troubling

me or several years is the separation o

departments In the morning they learn

about Greeks mdash how great the Greeks are

In the afernoon they learn about Hanuk-

kah and how horrible the Greeks are Well

which one is itrdquo

Students end up compartmentalizing

their brains the same way their days are

compartmentalized Kletenik said

ldquoWe donrsquot want that or our kidsrdquo she

continued ldquoWe need a synthesized sel

We need someone whose two parts o their

brain are talking to each otherrdquo

As principal Loew will be the ldquocentral

addressrdquo or all teachers in the K-8 pro-

gram

ldquoAs a Modern Orthodox school the

orah inorms our lives and aithulnessto our tradition is absolutely paramountrdquo

said Loew ldquoAt the same time that leaves

so much opportunity and room or learn-

ing other disciplinesrdquo

ldquoTis is big newsrdquo said Kletenik ldquoI

donrsquot know o other schools that have this

structurerdquo

Jewish day schools across the country

struggle with the financial burden placed

on amilies retaining teachers who could

earn more in the public school system

and keeping educational standards top-

notch SHArsquos strategic plan seems to be

tackling this triecta o issues by improving

the financial model educational approach

and community relationships

ldquoPeople will recognize the value o this

education and continue to invest in itrdquo said

Kletenik

Raising the quality o the education at

his previous institution is something Loew

eels proud o

ldquoTe aculty in the classrooms [is] the

ront linerdquo said Loew ldquoIrsquove been really

pleased to work with the aculty at SHA

Tey seem really passionate and dedicated

and proessional Tatrsquos really where the

success o the school lies o empower the

aculty to do what they do bestrdquo

Loew and his wie Chanie moved here

rom Hartord Conn with their five chil-

dren mdash our boys in 9th grade and under

and a 3-year-old girl Feeling it was time

or a change Loew says they were open

to anything when the job with SHA came

around He said theyrsquove been warmly wel-

comed into the community and eel privi-

leged to be here

ldquoTings just sort o ell into place in

terms o what I was looking or and wh

SHA was looking orrdquo he said ldquoTis ju

seemed to be the place where God wante

usrdquo

Thinking strategically SHA hires principal to move school forward

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

differential diagnosisrdquo

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

Recently Emily Ziskind director of life enrichment at Te Summit at FirHill asked my husband Leslie and me if wersquod like to join a group of young peopfrom Hillelrsquos Jconnect who wanted to visit and mingle with senior couples in ceebration of the Jewish holiday that honors love u brsquoAv Te couples from tholder and younger generations would come together and share information thwould hopefully strengthen the marriages of the young couples just starting ou

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

THE RABBIrsquoS TURN

OPINION

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 5 2014 n WWWJEWISHSOUNDORG n JTNews

5

5775 minus one No limits

RABBI HARRY ZEITLIN Congregation Beth HarsquoAriYou donrsquot need a rabbi to

let you know which way the

wind blows mdash the world is incrisis Massacres in Syria and

Iraq and Nigeria and Mali

regional wars between Russia

and Ukraine renewed race

riots in the United States

much o the world economy

stuck in the doldrums and a

collapsing EU And Israelrsquos almost con-

stant battle or survival against terrorists

this time calling themselves Hamas

With so many urgent crises this is no

time to don blinders and willully reuse

to see our challenges our abilities and

our duties

God created an astonishingly com-

plex world as well as astonishingly com-

plex and capable creatures to partner with

Him Human beings are created ldquoBrsquotzelem

Elohimrdquo (in Godrsquos image) so i God is

ldquoKol Yacholrdquo (capable o all omnipo-

tent) we have no business placing artifi-

cial limits on ourselves (O course we are

ldquobrsquotzelemrdquo in the image of and not actu-

ally God but while we are limited most o

us both individually and institutionally

inflate these limits and then retract them

to the point that we become ineffectual)

Ultimately we will never ldquoabsolutely

knowrdquo why we were created or even why

the universe was created but our orah

does inorm us that relative to ldquoolamrdquo

the universe our job is to ldquopartnerrdquo with

the Creator to bring Creation to its ull-

est All mankind is mandated to be kind

to all living creatures to seek justice and

to live morally mdash these are the seven

Noahide mitzvot which bring one to the

threshold o humanness and civilization

As Jews wersquore also given the unique ldquotoolrdquo

o orah which contains the additional

606 mitzvot completing the 613 which

wersquore taught perorm the essential spiri-

tual unctions (beyond merely ldquocausing

no harmrdquo) that ully develop our world

and ourselves

Te mandate o what has come to be

called ldquosocial justicerdquo is just as incum-

bent on the entire Jewish people as is our

engagement with orah and mitzvot and

while each o us must specialize none o

us can opt out o any o it Contempo-

rarily you rarely see a serious mature

emphasis on mitzvah observance (which

includes studying the mitzvot and their

underlying logic and not merely blind

compliance or blind opposition) in pro-

gressive Jewish communities and institu-

tions

Likewise while many Orthodox com-

munities committed to traditional orah

study and mitzvah observance commend-

ably look out or their constit-

uencies they rarely leave their

own neighborhoods to join thelarger Jewish community in

social issues

Tere is little i any daylight

between the concepts o ldquoolam

habaMashiachrdquo and ldquoa just

worldrdquo theyrsquore different socio-

logical labels or the same ideal

Tis goal in terms o our human contri-

bution to it is beyond any single-pronged

approach We both need to create a just

society and also to bring an abstract and

intangible holiness ldquokedushahrdquo to the

world Additionally this highest level o

human evolution at least as it specifically

applies to the Jewish people requires that

each o us (or at least a critical mass o us)

reaches it individually

ldquoKol Yisrael arevim zeh lrsquozehrdquo (almud

Shavuot 39a) the ate o all Jews is inter-

twined is embedded into the undamen-

tal structure o reality In other words

none o us gets there until we all get there

together mdash ldquoLeave no Jew behindrdquo as it

were

One o the greatest challenges acing

our people today is that those o us who

ocus on orah and mitzvot too ofen dis-

miss Jews whose ocus is ldquoa just societyrdquo

and those Jews dismiss the ones whose

main ocus is traditional ldquoorah and mitz-

votrdquo observance Additionally we cannot

(and never have been able to) dismiss or

take or granted the survival o Israel and

o the Jewish People (which are identi-

cal) Tose who ocus on the political mil-

itary and diplomatic approaches to this

cannot ignore the other two priorities and

those ocusing on halachic or social issues

cannot turn away rom Israel especially

when she is under attack While each o

us will migrate to our strength we need

to incorporate the other considerations as

well into our efforts

Te genius o Judaism is that it reveals

reality as infinitely dimensional and it

gives us tools to work with all this beauti-

ul complexity

almud rather than merely generating

Te Rules (halachah) or relating olk-cul-

ture (aggadatah) trains us in techniques

to experience analyze and process both

empirically and intuitively directly and

by inerence associatively individually

collectively as well as in other parame-

ters all at the same time As we refine our

individual practice and experience o our

Governor John R Rogers

was a noted Washington

State populist He was the

statersquos third governor serv-

ing rom 1897 through his

death in 1901 Carved in his

statue in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Park is this

quote ldquoI would make it impossible or the

covetous and avaricious to utterly impov-

erish the poor Te rich can take care o

themselvesrdquo His legacy is the ldquoBareoot

School Boy Actrdquo Tis was the basis o the

statersquos unding o public education reliev-

ing localities o a burden many could not

support Its aim was to guarantee unding

or an adequate education or children in

even the statersquos poorest areas o this day

this act is cited by advocates when they

express concern about the statersquos declin-

ing level o unding o public education

Te populists anticipated the ldquoOccupyrdquo

movement by over a century with their

ocus on the impacts on the typical Amer-

ican armer and worker o Wall Street

and o other domestic and oreign ldquorichrdquo

people

John R Rogers ocused his attention on

a particular group that in his view brought

about the first US great depression o the

1890s Jews

Here was the cause o the economic

distress in his 1892 book ldquoTe Irrepress-

ible Conflictrdquo

ldquoAs I write a daily paper o today lies

on the desk At the head o one the col-

umns I see a big lsquoscare headrsquo which reads

in startling letters MORE GOLD MAY

GO Tus the people who deal in money

are warned rom Europe that the money

market is to be made closer and tighter

Gold is shipped to Europe and the ability

o our people to buy and sell or exchange

labor and the products o labor is to be

still urther reduced by making all money

scarcer and harder to get he excuse

offered is lsquoEurope wants ou

Goldrsquo And because Europe mdash

or the Jewish Money Lords the world mdash can thus intere

in American trade and tak

rom the American labor

his opportunity to labor an

reduce the value o Amer

can property is reason enoug

or the establishment o a

American system not depen

dent upon the Jews o eith

London or New Yorkrdquo

Tis quote is mild com

pared to his expression o ho

tility elsewhere in this sam

volume

ldquoAt the present time the people

nitude that chattel slavery was mdash the pr

Does his revolting anti-Semitism o ov

he deserves some acknowledgment o

his legislative achievements which hav

Port protesters block nothing but traffic

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews CorrespondentChanting ldquoLong live Palestinerdquo and

ldquoFree Free Palestinerdquo underscored by a

mobile sound system playing a booming

pro-Palestinian political mixtape nearly

150 marchers came to erminal 18 at the

Spokane Street Fishing Area in Seattle onAugust 25 to stop longshoremen rom

reporting or their shifs and unloading

the ZIM Chicago an international Israeli

vessel that had been delay ed but not

thwarted rom delivering its cargo to the

Port o Oakland in Caliornia the previ-

ous week

ldquoTe ports the police the city the

mayor and the governorrsquos oice mdash

nobody supported the actionrdquo Andy

David Israelrsquos consul general or the

Pacific Northwest in San Francisco told

JNews ldquoTey are hurting a lot o Ameri-

cans and merchantsrdquo

According to David two ships arrived

on the day o the ldquoBlock the Boatrdquo protest

in Oakland One was unloaded However

the Israeli ship wasnrsquot until day our o the

delay and there was damage to urniture

coffee chemicals and other cargo he said

He lays the blame squarely at the eet

o that cityrsquos local International Longshore

and Warehouse Union

ldquoTe ILWU was cooperating with the

protesters and therersquos enough proo o

thatrdquo David said ldquoTe local branch issued

a statement saying it was not sae or the

workers to go past the line Tey were

offered to be bused in but they reused

When they were unloading they took

lunch breaks and didnrsquot come backrdquo

David said the eamsterrsquos Union

issued its own press release condemning

the protest

Local and national leaders ear that

uture disruption at the Port would result

in job losses and devastation or small

businesses already experiencing financial

hardship

ldquo I t rsquo s a

c o w a r d l y

tacticrdquo said

David ldquoand

it hurt mer-

c h a n t s e x p o r t e r s

truck drivers

gas stat ion

owners and

w a r e h o u s e

workersrdquo

Protesters

tried to block

the Chicago

when it arrived

at the Port o acoma on Aug 23 but

workers bypassed the crowd and unloaded

it rom another location surprising the

protesters

In Seattle on Aug 25 Block the Boat

only succeeded in blocking the public

roadway adjacent to the terminal imped-

ing cargo-filled trucks and mothers with

their kids rom driving through

Protesters also blocked the three vehi-

cle entrances to the dock restrained by a

ormidable and mobile Seattle police pres-

ence that ollowed the moving crowd on

bikes in cars and in SUVs

ldquoWorkers reported or work and all o

the cargo that was going to be handled was

handledrdquo Peter McGraw the support and

real estate supervisor or the Port o Seat-

tle told JNews ldquoTey arrived and lef on

schedulerdquo

McGraw said that port police were not

involved in this action and that no Port o

Seattle property was trespassed

ldquoIn cases like this we work with our

partner law enorcement agencies and

that includes the Seattle Police Depart-

mentrdquo he said

Still organizers claimed victory

ldquoOur goal is to prevent business as

usualrdquo Nada Elia one o the organizers o

Block the Boat told JNews Elia said the

crowd was a coalition o pro-Palestinian

groups including Jewish Voice or Peace

and national boycott divest and sanction

supporters in Seattle ldquoWe want to prevent

the workers rom coming to their shif

We are in solidarity with Gaza because it

is under an illegal blockade and cannot use

its portsrdquo

Elia said she had hoped to galvanize a

showing o 300 activists mdash the number she

said the group tallied in acoma two days

beore but a Block the Boat press release

reported the number to be closer to 150

Ed Mast another protest organizer and

an activist in the Seattle Mideast Aware-

ness Campaign the organization respon-

sible or placing ads on billboards and

Metro buses that call or the US to pull its

aid to Israel kept the protesters moving

and motivated as they aced down police

along their path and at their destinations

ldquoAny delay works because itrsquos about

sending the messagerdquo said Mast who also

said he believed the action by the crowd

accomplished its goals

Craig and Cindy Corrie o Olympia

the parents o Rachel Corrie who died in a

2003 protest in Gaza came to Seattle

support Block the Boat

Corrie said their pro-Palestinian mov

ment would like to enlist more suppo

rom the unions

ldquoI think there needs to be an expense

Israelrdquo he said ldquoJust like in South Aric

this has gone too ar Te US and Isra

are becoming more isolatedrdquo

One protester was arrested and w

bailed out later that evening

Jonathan Sword 39 o Seattle said h

rejects the use o anti-Semitic and ant

police overtones oten ound in the

kinds o protests but agrees with the

political aims

ldquoItrsquos complicated but I donrsquot thin

Israel is going to do this much longer

said Sword ldquoIt canrsquot go on like thisrdquo

hough blatantly anti-Semitic sign

had been spotted at protests at Westlak

Plaza in downtown Seattle througho

the summer the Block the Boat websi

stated explicitly that no such signs wou

be tolerated at these protests and non

appeared

Tis all the Seattle Hebrew Academy

welcomes Rabbi Daniel Loew to its ac-

ulty as principal a new position created

to bridge the schoolrsquos Judaic and general

studies

Loew comes to the Modern Ortho-dox dual-curriculum early childhood-8th

grade day school rom the Hebrew High

School o New England where he had been

head o school since 2005

Loewrsquos appointment ollows SHArsquos new

strategic plan which seeks to achieve aca-

demic excellence optimize enrollment

create a more sustainable financial model

and to expand the schoolrsquos role in the

Modern Orthodox community

ldquoWe are very determined to be the

epicenter o Modern Orthodoxyrdquo SHA

head o school Rivy Poupko Kletenik told

JNews ldquoWe want to see ourselves having

a role in the community at largerdquo

One aspect o achieving this goal is to

better bridge ldquoorah ursquomadahrdquo or Jewish

studies and general studies

ldquoTe more that we can do to bring the

two departments closer together the more

learning will happen in the classroomrdquo

Kletenik said ldquoWhat has been troubling

me or several years is the separation o

departments In the morning they learn

about Greeks mdash how great the Greeks are

In the afernoon they learn about Hanuk-

kah and how horrible the Greeks are Well

which one is itrdquo

Students end up compartmentalizing

their brains the same way their days are

compartmentalized Kletenik said

ldquoWe donrsquot want that or our kidsrdquo she

continued ldquoWe need a synthesized sel

We need someone whose two parts o their

brain are talking to each otherrdquo

As principal Loew will be the ldquocentral

addressrdquo or all teachers in the K-8 pro-

gram

ldquoAs a Modern Orthodox school the

orah inorms our lives and aithulnessto our tradition is absolutely paramountrdquo

said Loew ldquoAt the same time that leaves

so much opportunity and room or learn-

ing other disciplinesrdquo

ldquoTis is big newsrdquo said Kletenik ldquoI

donrsquot know o other schools that have this

structurerdquo

Jewish day schools across the country

struggle with the financial burden placed

on amilies retaining teachers who could

earn more in the public school system

and keeping educational standards top-

notch SHArsquos strategic plan seems to be

tackling this triecta o issues by improving

the financial model educational approach

and community relationships

ldquoPeople will recognize the value o this

education and continue to invest in itrdquo said

Kletenik

Raising the quality o the education at

his previous institution is something Loew

eels proud o

ldquoTe aculty in the classrooms [is] the

ront linerdquo said Loew ldquoIrsquove been really

pleased to work with the aculty at SHA

Tey seem really passionate and dedicated

and proessional Tatrsquos really where the

success o the school lies o empower the

aculty to do what they do bestrdquo

Loew and his wie Chanie moved here

rom Hartord Conn with their five chil-

dren mdash our boys in 9th grade and under

and a 3-year-old girl Feeling it was time

or a change Loew says they were open

to anything when the job with SHA came

around He said theyrsquove been warmly wel-

comed into the community and eel privi-

leged to be here

ldquoTings just sort o ell into place in

terms o what I was looking or and wh

SHA was looking orrdquo he said ldquoTis ju

seemed to be the place where God wante

usrdquo

Thinking strategically SHA hires principal to move school forward

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

the leadership management director AIPAC in Houston and Seattle She w

responsible or educating the commun

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

lived on a kibbutz in Northern Israel whe

she assisted the resource developmen

department at Kinneret College to intr

duce itsel to the English speaking world

Pinkseldrsquos development experien

began at the Hillel at ulane University

was the first time they had vis-

ited Kline Galland as a group

Te idea came rom two ribemembers who have parents

living there

Rosie Coe the only emale rider that day

visited with her mother Perla Schneider

ldquoMom were you araid when I started

riding motorcyclesrdquo Coe asked her mother

ldquoI thought you were in good handsrdquo

Schneider responded reerring to Coersquos

fianceacute Bruce Lobree who got her into the

hobby

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

differential diagnosisrdquo

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

ter users ldquocrashrdquo when stopping it and wa

to eel good again eventually wanting mo

due to damaged dopamine neurons Eve

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

is not known i they recover

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics o Nor

Americardquo cites evidence that treating pr

schoolers would curb the onset o ADH

earlier but admitted that the long-ter

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

Our bridge acrossgenerationsBy Anne Boher

Recently Emily Ziskind director of life enrichment at Te Summit at FirHill asked my husband Leslie and me if wersquod like to join a group of young peopfrom Hillelrsquos Jconnect who wanted to visit and mingle with senior couples in ceebration of the Jewish holiday that honors love u brsquoAv Te couples from tholder and younger generations would come together and share information thwould hopefully strengthen the marriages of the young couples just starting ou

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

THE RABBIrsquoS TURN

OPINION

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 5 2014 n WWWJEWISHSOUNDORG n JTNews

5

5775 minus one No limits

RABBI HARRY ZEITLIN Congregation Beth HarsquoAriYou donrsquot need a rabbi to

let you know which way the

wind blows mdash the world is incrisis Massacres in Syria and

Iraq and Nigeria and Mali

regional wars between Russia

and Ukraine renewed race

riots in the United States

much o the world economy

stuck in the doldrums and a

collapsing EU And Israelrsquos almost con-

stant battle or survival against terrorists

this time calling themselves Hamas

With so many urgent crises this is no

time to don blinders and willully reuse

to see our challenges our abilities and

our duties

God created an astonishingly com-

plex world as well as astonishingly com-

plex and capable creatures to partner with

Him Human beings are created ldquoBrsquotzelem

Elohimrdquo (in Godrsquos image) so i God is

ldquoKol Yacholrdquo (capable o all omnipo-

tent) we have no business placing artifi-

cial limits on ourselves (O course we are

ldquobrsquotzelemrdquo in the image of and not actu-

ally God but while we are limited most o

us both individually and institutionally

inflate these limits and then retract them

to the point that we become ineffectual)

Ultimately we will never ldquoabsolutely

knowrdquo why we were created or even why

the universe was created but our orah

does inorm us that relative to ldquoolamrdquo

the universe our job is to ldquopartnerrdquo with

the Creator to bring Creation to its ull-

est All mankind is mandated to be kind

to all living creatures to seek justice and

to live morally mdash these are the seven

Noahide mitzvot which bring one to the

threshold o humanness and civilization

As Jews wersquore also given the unique ldquotoolrdquo

o orah which contains the additional

606 mitzvot completing the 613 which

wersquore taught perorm the essential spiri-

tual unctions (beyond merely ldquocausing

no harmrdquo) that ully develop our world

and ourselves

Te mandate o what has come to be

called ldquosocial justicerdquo is just as incum-

bent on the entire Jewish people as is our

engagement with orah and mitzvot and

while each o us must specialize none o

us can opt out o any o it Contempo-

rarily you rarely see a serious mature

emphasis on mitzvah observance (which

includes studying the mitzvot and their

underlying logic and not merely blind

compliance or blind opposition) in pro-

gressive Jewish communities and institu-

tions

Likewise while many Orthodox com-

munities committed to traditional orah

study and mitzvah observance commend-

ably look out or their constit-

uencies they rarely leave their

own neighborhoods to join thelarger Jewish community in

social issues

Tere is little i any daylight

between the concepts o ldquoolam

habaMashiachrdquo and ldquoa just

worldrdquo theyrsquore different socio-

logical labels or the same ideal

Tis goal in terms o our human contri-

bution to it is beyond any single-pronged

approach We both need to create a just

society and also to bring an abstract and

intangible holiness ldquokedushahrdquo to the

world Additionally this highest level o

human evolution at least as it specifically

applies to the Jewish people requires that

each o us (or at least a critical mass o us)

reaches it individually

ldquoKol Yisrael arevim zeh lrsquozehrdquo (almud

Shavuot 39a) the ate o all Jews is inter-

twined is embedded into the undamen-

tal structure o reality In other words

none o us gets there until we all get there

together mdash ldquoLeave no Jew behindrdquo as it

were

One o the greatest challenges acing

our people today is that those o us who

ocus on orah and mitzvot too ofen dis-

miss Jews whose ocus is ldquoa just societyrdquo

and those Jews dismiss the ones whose

main ocus is traditional ldquoorah and mitz-

votrdquo observance Additionally we cannot

(and never have been able to) dismiss or

take or granted the survival o Israel and

o the Jewish People (which are identi-

cal) Tose who ocus on the political mil-

itary and diplomatic approaches to this

cannot ignore the other two priorities and

those ocusing on halachic or social issues

cannot turn away rom Israel especially

when she is under attack While each o

us will migrate to our strength we need

to incorporate the other considerations as

well into our efforts

Te genius o Judaism is that it reveals

reality as infinitely dimensional and it

gives us tools to work with all this beauti-

ul complexity

almud rather than merely generating

Te Rules (halachah) or relating olk-cul-

ture (aggadatah) trains us in techniques

to experience analyze and process both

empirically and intuitively directly and

by inerence associatively individually

collectively as well as in other parame-

ters all at the same time As we refine our

individual practice and experience o our

Jewish tradition we both see the world as

increasingly rich and ourselves as increas-

ingly capable

The governor was an anti-Semite

RUSSELL LIDMAN Special to JTNewsGovernor John R Rogers

enjoys a prominent place

in this state Schools arenamed afer him in Seattle

Spokane Olympia and else-

where around the state His

statue is located in Sylvester

Park in downtown Olym-

pia in ront o the Office o

the Superintendent o Public

Instruction building

Governor John R Rogers

was a noted Washington

State populist He was the

statersquos third governor serv-

ing rom 1897 through his

death in 1901 Carved in his

statue in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Park is this

quote ldquoI would make it impossible or the

covetous and avaricious to utterly impov-

erish the poor Te rich can take care o

themselvesrdquo His legacy is the ldquoBareoot

School Boy Actrdquo Tis was the basis o the

statersquos unding o public education reliev-

ing localities o a burden many could not

support Its aim was to guarantee unding

or an adequate education or children in

even the statersquos poorest areas o this day

this act is cited by advocates when they

express concern about the statersquos declin-

ing level o unding o public education

Te populists anticipated the ldquoOccupyrdquo

movement by over a century with their

ocus on the impacts on the typical Amer-

ican armer and worker o Wall Street

and o other domestic and oreign ldquorichrdquo

people

John R Rogers ocused his attention on

a particular group that in his view brought

about the first US great depression o the

1890s Jews

Here was the cause o the economic

distress in his 1892 book ldquoTe Irrepress-

ible Conflictrdquo

ldquoAs I write a daily paper o today lies

on the desk At the head o one the col-

umns I see a big lsquoscare headrsquo which reads

in startling letters MORE GOLD MAY

GO Tus the people who deal in money

are warned rom Europe that the money

market is to be made closer and tighter

Gold is shipped to Europe and the ability

o our people to buy and sell or exchange

labor and the products o labor is to be

still urther reduced by making all money

scarcer and harder to get he excuse

offered is lsquoEurope wants ou

Goldrsquo And because Europe mdash

or the Jewish Money Lords the world mdash can thus intere

in American trade and tak

rom the American labor

his opportunity to labor an

reduce the value o Amer

can property is reason enoug

or the establishment o a

American system not depen

dent upon the Jews o eith

London or New Yorkrdquo

Tis quote is mild com

pared to his expression o ho

tility elsewhere in this sam

volume

ldquoAt the present time the people

the United States conront a world-wid

and world-long evil o ar greater ma

nitude that chattel slavery was mdash the pr

vate monopoly o moneyhellip [I]ts slee

and prosperous agents stand high in eve

community occupying mdash as o yore mdash

the highest seats in our synagogues T

vague yet potent orce lsquogood societyrsquo

controlled by it legislation has listene

painully or its lightest whisper the ba

the bench and pulpit have becomehellipme

minions registering Mammonrsquos decree

Does John R Rogers deserve a prom

inent place in Olympiarsquos Sylvester Par

Does his revolting anti-Semitism o ov

120 years ago negate the importance

his legislative accomplishment Sure

he deserves some acknowledgment o

his legislative achievements which hav

had a significant impact on state un

ing o public education However Gove

nor Rogersrsquo anti-Semitism in my view h

been too long overlooked

Look at the Rogers biography on Wik

pedia as an example Tere is no mentio

o him as an anti-Semite Go back to th

first biography o the statersquos governor

ldquoGovernors o Washington erritori

and Staterdquo written by University o Wash

ington proessor Edmond Meany in 191

and no mention o Rogersrsquos anti-Semitis

appears there

What to do about the essentially una

knowledged anti-Semitism o one o th

seeming heroes o our statersquos early year

I have been mulling this over or a coup

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews CorrespondentChanting ldquoLong live Palestinerdquo and

ldquoFree Free Palestinerdquo underscored by a

mobile sound system playing a booming

pro-Palestinian political mixtape nearly

150 marchers came to erminal 18 at the

Spokane Street Fishing Area in Seattle onAugust 25 to stop longshoremen rom

reporting or their shifs and unloading

the ZIM Chicago an international Israeli

vessel that had been delay ed but not

thwarted rom delivering its cargo to the

Port o Oakland in Caliornia the previ-

ous week

ldquoTe ports the police the city the

mayor and the governorrsquos oice mdash

nobody supported the actionrdquo Andy

David Israelrsquos consul general or the

Pacific Northwest in San Francisco told

JNews ldquoTey are hurting a lot o Ameri-

cans and merchantsrdquo

According to David two ships arrived

on the day o the ldquoBlock the Boatrdquo protest

in Oakland One was unloaded However

the Israeli ship wasnrsquot until day our o the

delay and there was damage to urniture

coffee chemicals and other cargo he said

He lays the blame squarely at the eet

o that cityrsquos local International Longshore

and Warehouse Union

ldquoTe ILWU was cooperating with the

protesters and therersquos enough proo o

thatrdquo David said ldquoTe local branch issued

a statement saying it was not sae or the

workers to go past the line Tey were

offered to be bused in but they reused

When they were unloading they took

lunch breaks and didnrsquot come backrdquo

David said the eamsterrsquos Union

issued its own press release condemning

the protest

Local and national leaders ear that

uture disruption at the Port would result

in job losses and devastation or small

businesses already experiencing financial

hardship

ldquo I t rsquo s a

c o w a r d l y

tacticrdquo said

David ldquoand

it hurt mer-

c h a n t s e x p o r t e r s

truck drivers

gas stat ion

owners and

w a r e h o u s e

workersrdquo

Protesters

tried to block

the Chicago

when it arrived

at the Port o acoma on Aug 23 but

workers bypassed the crowd and unloaded

it rom another location surprising the

protesters

In Seattle on Aug 25 Block the Boat

only succeeded in blocking the public

roadway adjacent to the terminal imped-

ing cargo-filled trucks and mothers with

their kids rom driving through

Protesters also blocked the three vehi-

cle entrances to the dock restrained by a

ormidable and mobile Seattle police pres-

ence that ollowed the moving crowd on

bikes in cars and in SUVs

ldquoWorkers reported or work and all o

the cargo that was going to be handled was

handledrdquo Peter McGraw the support and

real estate supervisor or the Port o Seat-

tle told JNews ldquoTey arrived and lef on

schedulerdquo

McGraw said that port police were not

involved in this action and that no Port o

Seattle property was trespassed

ldquoIn cases like this we work with our

partner law enorcement agencies and

that includes the Seattle Police Depart-

mentrdquo he said

Still organizers claimed victory

ldquoOur goal is to prevent business as

usualrdquo Nada Elia one o the organizers o

Block the Boat told JNews Elia said the

crowd was a coalition o pro-Palestinian

groups including Jewish Voice or Peace

and national boycott divest and sanction

supporters in Seattle ldquoWe want to prevent

the workers rom coming to their shif

We are in solidarity with Gaza because it

is under an illegal blockade and cannot use

its portsrdquo

Elia said she had hoped to galvanize a

showing o 300 activists mdash the number she

said the group tallied in acoma two days

beore but a Block the Boat press release

reported the number to be closer to 150

Ed Mast another protest organizer and

an activist in the Seattle Mideast Aware-

ness Campaign the organization respon-

sible or placing ads on billboards and

Metro buses that call or the US to pull its

aid to Israel kept the protesters moving

and motivated as they aced down police

along their path and at their destinations

ldquoAny delay works because itrsquos about

sending the messagerdquo said Mast who also

said he believed the action by the crowd

accomplished its goals

Craig and Cindy Corrie o Olympia

the parents o Rachel Corrie who died in a

2003 protest in Gaza came to Seattle

support Block the Boat

Corrie said their pro-Palestinian mov

ment would like to enlist more suppo

rom the unions

ldquoI think there needs to be an expense

Israelrdquo he said ldquoJust like in South Aric

this has gone too ar Te US and Isra

are becoming more isolatedrdquo

One protester was arrested and w

bailed out later that evening

Jonathan Sword 39 o Seattle said h

rejects the use o anti-Semitic and ant

police overtones oten ound in the

kinds o protests but agrees with the

political aims

ldquoItrsquos complicated but I donrsquot thin

Israel is going to do this much longer

said Sword ldquoIt canrsquot go on like thisrdquo

hough blatantly anti-Semitic sign

had been spotted at protests at Westlak

Plaza in downtown Seattle througho

the summer the Block the Boat websi

stated explicitly that no such signs wou

be tolerated at these protests and non

appeared

Tis all the Seattle Hebrew Academy

welcomes Rabbi Daniel Loew to its ac-

ulty as principal a new position created

to bridge the schoolrsquos Judaic and general

studies

Loew comes to the Modern Ortho-dox dual-curriculum early childhood-8th

grade day school rom the Hebrew High

School o New England where he had been

head o school since 2005

Loewrsquos appointment ollows SHArsquos new

strategic plan which seeks to achieve aca-

demic excellence optimize enrollment

create a more sustainable financial model

and to expand the schoolrsquos role in the

Modern Orthodox community

ldquoWe are very determined to be the

epicenter o Modern Orthodoxyrdquo SHA

head o school Rivy Poupko Kletenik told

JNews ldquoWe want to see ourselves having

a role in the community at largerdquo

One aspect o achieving this goal is to

better bridge ldquoorah ursquomadahrdquo or Jewish

studies and general studies

ldquoTe more that we can do to bring the

two departments closer together the more

learning will happen in the classroomrdquo

Kletenik said ldquoWhat has been troubling

me or several years is the separation o

departments In the morning they learn

about Greeks mdash how great the Greeks are

In the afernoon they learn about Hanuk-

kah and how horrible the Greeks are Well

which one is itrdquo

Students end up compartmentalizing

their brains the same way their days are

compartmentalized Kletenik said

ldquoWe donrsquot want that or our kidsrdquo she

continued ldquoWe need a synthesized sel

We need someone whose two parts o their

brain are talking to each otherrdquo

As principal Loew will be the ldquocentral

addressrdquo or all teachers in the K-8 pro-

gram

ldquoAs a Modern Orthodox school the

orah inorms our lives and aithulnessto our tradition is absolutely paramountrdquo

said Loew ldquoAt the same time that leaves

so much opportunity and room or learn-

ing other disciplinesrdquo

ldquoTis is big newsrdquo said Kletenik ldquoI

donrsquot know o other schools that have this

structurerdquo

Jewish day schools across the country

struggle with the financial burden placed

on amilies retaining teachers who could

earn more in the public school system

and keeping educational standards top-

notch SHArsquos strategic plan seems to be

tackling this triecta o issues by improving

the financial model educational approach

and community relationships

ldquoPeople will recognize the value o this

education and continue to invest in itrdquo said

Kletenik

Raising the quality o the education at

his previous institution is something Loew

eels proud o

ldquoTe aculty in the classrooms [is] the

ront linerdquo said Loew ldquoIrsquove been really

pleased to work with the aculty at SHA

Tey seem really passionate and dedicated

and proessional Tatrsquos really where the

success o the school lies o empower the

aculty to do what they do bestrdquo

Loew and his wie Chanie moved here

rom Hartord Conn with their five chil-

dren mdash our boys in 9th grade and under

and a 3-year-old girl Feeling it was time

or a change Loew says they were open

to anything when the job with SHA came

around He said theyrsquove been warmly wel-

comed into the community and eel privi-

leged to be here

ldquoTings just sort o ell into place in

terms o what I was looking or and wh

SHA was looking orrdquo he said ldquoTis ju

seemed to be the place where God wante

usrdquo

Thinking strategically SHA hires principal to move school forward

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

differential diagnosisrdquo

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

ter users ldquocrashrdquo when stopping it and wa

to eel good again eventually wanting mo

due to damaged dopamine neurons Eve

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

Recently Emily Ziskind director of life enrichment at Te Summit at FirHill asked my husband Leslie and me if wersquod like to join a group of young peopfrom Hillelrsquos Jconnect who wanted to visit and mingle with senior couples in ceebration of the Jewish holiday that honors love u brsquoAv Te couples from tholder and younger generations would come together and share information thwould hopefully strengthen the marriages of the young couples just starting ou

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

26 the life amp times of Northwest Jewish teens september 5 201

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

Port protesters block nothing but traffic

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews CorrespondentChanting ldquoLong live Palestinerdquo and

ldquoFree Free Palestinerdquo underscored by a

mobile sound system playing a booming

pro-Palestinian political mixtape nearly

150 marchers came to erminal 18 at the

Spokane Street Fishing Area in Seattle onAugust 25 to stop longshoremen rom

reporting or their shifs and unloading

the ZIM Chicago an international Israeli

vessel that had been delay ed but not

thwarted rom delivering its cargo to the

Port o Oakland in Caliornia the previ-

ous week

ldquoTe ports the police the city the

mayor and the governorrsquos oice mdash

nobody supported the actionrdquo Andy

David Israelrsquos consul general or the

Pacific Northwest in San Francisco told

JNews ldquoTey are hurting a lot o Ameri-

cans and merchantsrdquo

According to David two ships arrived

on the day o the ldquoBlock the Boatrdquo protest

in Oakland One was unloaded However

the Israeli ship wasnrsquot until day our o the

delay and there was damage to urniture

coffee chemicals and other cargo he said

He lays the blame squarely at the eet

o that cityrsquos local International Longshore

and Warehouse Union

ldquoTe ILWU was cooperating with the

protesters and therersquos enough proo o

thatrdquo David said ldquoTe local branch issued

a statement saying it was not sae or the

workers to go past the line Tey were

offered to be bused in but they reused

When they were unloading they took

lunch breaks and didnrsquot come backrdquo

David said the eamsterrsquos Union

issued its own press release condemning

the protest

Local and national leaders ear that

uture disruption at the Port would result

in job losses and devastation or small

businesses already experiencing financial

hardship

ldquo I t rsquo s a

c o w a r d l y

tacticrdquo said

David ldquoand

it hurt mer-

c h a n t s e x p o r t e r s

truck drivers

gas stat ion

owners and

w a r e h o u s e

workersrdquo

Protesters

tried to block

the Chicago

when it arrived

at the Port o acoma on Aug 23 but

workers bypassed the crowd and unloaded

it rom another location surprising the

protesters

In Seattle on Aug 25 Block the Boat

only succeeded in blocking the public

roadway adjacent to the terminal imped-

ing cargo-filled trucks and mothers with

their kids rom driving through

Protesters also blocked the three vehi-

cle entrances to the dock restrained by a

ormidable and mobile Seattle police pres-

ence that ollowed the moving crowd on

bikes in cars and in SUVs

ldquoWorkers reported or work and all o

the cargo that was going to be handled was

handledrdquo Peter McGraw the support and

real estate supervisor or the Port o Seat-

tle told JNews ldquoTey arrived and lef on

schedulerdquo

McGraw said that port police were not

involved in this action and that no Port o

Seattle property was trespassed

ldquoIn cases like this we work with our

partner law enorcement agencies and

that includes the Seattle Police Depart-

mentrdquo he said

Still organizers claimed victory

ldquoOur goal is to prevent business as

usualrdquo Nada Elia one o the organizers o

Block the Boat told JNews Elia said the

crowd was a coalition o pro-Palestinian

groups including Jewish Voice or Peace

and national boycott divest and sanction

supporters in Seattle ldquoWe want to prevent

the workers rom coming to their shif

We are in solidarity with Gaza because it

is under an illegal blockade and cannot use

its portsrdquo

Elia said she had hoped to galvanize a

showing o 300 activists mdash the number she

said the group tallied in acoma two days

beore but a Block the Boat press release

reported the number to be closer to 150

Ed Mast another protest organizer and

an activist in the Seattle Mideast Aware-

ness Campaign the organization respon-

sible or placing ads on billboards and

Metro buses that call or the US to pull its

aid to Israel kept the protesters moving

and motivated as they aced down police

along their path and at their destinations

ldquoAny delay works because itrsquos about

sending the messagerdquo said Mast who also

said he believed the action by the crowd

accomplished its goals

Craig and Cindy Corrie o Olympia

the parents o Rachel Corrie who died in a

2003 protest in Gaza came to Seattle

support Block the Boat

Corrie said their pro-Palestinian mov

ment would like to enlist more suppo

rom the unions

ldquoI think there needs to be an expense

Israelrdquo he said ldquoJust like in South Aric

this has gone too ar Te US and Isra

are becoming more isolatedrdquo

One protester was arrested and w

bailed out later that evening

Jonathan Sword 39 o Seattle said h

rejects the use o anti-Semitic and ant

police overtones oten ound in the

kinds o protests but agrees with the

political aims

ldquoItrsquos complicated but I donrsquot thin

Israel is going to do this much longer

said Sword ldquoIt canrsquot go on like thisrdquo

hough blatantly anti-Semitic sign

had been spotted at protests at Westlak

Plaza in downtown Seattle througho

the summer the Block the Boat websi

stated explicitly that no such signs wou

be tolerated at these protests and non

Tis all the Seattle Hebrew Academy

welcomes Rabbi Daniel Loew to its ac-

ulty as principal a new position created

to bridge the schoolrsquos Judaic and general

studies

Loew comes to the Modern Ortho-dox dual-curriculum early childhood-8th

grade day school rom the Hebrew High

School o New England where he had been

head o school since 2005

Loewrsquos appointment ollows SHArsquos new

strategic plan which seeks to achieve aca-

demic excellence optimize enrollment

create a more sustainable financial model

and to expand the schoolrsquos role in the

Modern Orthodox community

ldquoWe are very determined to be the

epicenter o Modern Orthodoxyrdquo SHA

head o school Rivy Poupko Kletenik told

JNews ldquoWe want to see ourselves having

a role in the community at largerdquo

One aspect o achieving this goal is to

better bridge ldquoorah ursquomadahrdquo or Jewish

studies and general studies

ldquoTe more that we can do to bring the

two departments closer together the more

learning will happen in the classroomrdquo

Kletenik said ldquoWhat has been troubling

me or several years is the separation o

departments In the morning they learn

about Greeks mdash how great the Greeks are

In the afernoon they learn about Hanuk-

kah and how horrible the Greeks are Well

which one is itrdquo

Students end up compartmentalizing

their brains the same way their days are

compartmentalized Kletenik said

ldquoWe donrsquot want that or our kidsrdquo she

continued ldquoWe need a synthesized sel

We need someone whose two parts o their

brain are talking to each otherrdquo

As principal Loew will be the ldquocentral

addressrdquo or all teachers in the K-8 pro-

gram

ldquoAs a Modern Orthodox school the

orah inorms our lives and aithulnessto our tradition is absolutely paramountrdquo

said Loew ldquoAt the same time that leaves

so much opportunity and room or learn-

ing other disciplinesrdquo

ldquoTis is big newsrdquo said Kletenik ldquoI

donrsquot know o other schools that have this

structurerdquo

Jewish day schools across the country

struggle with the financial burden placed

on amilies retaining teachers who could

earn more in the public school system

and keeping educational standards top-

notch SHArsquos strategic plan seems to be

tackling this triecta o issues by improving

the financial model educational approach

and community relationships

ldquoPeople will recognize the value o this

education and continue to invest in itrdquo said

Kletenik

Raising the quality o the education at

his previous institution is something Loew

eels proud o

ldquoTe aculty in the classrooms [is] the

ront linerdquo said Loew ldquoIrsquove been really

pleased to work with the aculty at SHA

Tey seem really passionate and dedicated

and proessional Tatrsquos really where the

success o the school lies o empower the

aculty to do what they do bestrdquo

Loew and his wie Chanie moved here

rom Hartord Conn with their five chil-

dren mdash our boys in 9th grade and under

and a 3-year-old girl Feeling it was time

or a change Loew says they were open

to anything when the job with SHA came

around He said theyrsquove been warmly wel-

comed into the community and eel privi-

leged to be here

ldquoTings just sort o ell into place in

terms o what I was looking or and wh

SHA was looking orrdquo he said ldquoTis ju

seemed to be the place where God wante

usrdquo

Thinking strategically SHA hires principal to move school forward

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

the leadership management director AIPAC in Houston and Seattle She w

responsible or educating the commun

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

lived on a kibbutz in Northern Israel whe

she assisted the resource developmen

department at Kinneret College to intr

duce itsel to the English speaking world

Pinkseldrsquos development experien

began at the Hillel at ulane University

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

Temple Beth Hatfiloh in Olympia

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Local prof tackles the shifting sands of the Middle East

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

Tis all the Seattle Hebrew Academy

welcomes Rabbi Daniel Loew to its ac-

ulty as principal a new position created

to bridge the schoolrsquos Judaic and general

studies

Loew comes to the Modern Ortho-dox dual-curriculum early childhood-8th

grade day school rom the Hebrew High

School o New England where he had been

head o school since 2005

Loewrsquos appointment ollows SHArsquos new

strategic plan which seeks to achieve aca-

demic excellence optimize enrollment

create a more sustainable financial model

and to expand the schoolrsquos role in the

Modern Orthodox community

ldquoWe are very determined to be the

epicenter o Modern Orthodoxyrdquo SHA

head o school Rivy Poupko Kletenik told

JNews ldquoWe want to see ourselves having

a role in the community at largerdquo

One aspect o achieving this goal is to

better bridge ldquoorah ursquomadahrdquo or Jewish

studies and general studies

ldquoTe more that we can do to bring the

two departments closer together the more

learning will happen in the classroomrdquo

Kletenik said ldquoWhat has been troubling

me or several years is the separation o

departments In the morning they learn

about Greeks mdash how great the Greeks are

In the afernoon they learn about Hanuk-

kah and how horrible the Greeks are Well

which one is itrdquo

Students end up compartmentalizing

their brains the same way their days are

compartmentalized Kletenik said

ldquoWe donrsquot want that or our kidsrdquo she

continued ldquoWe need a synthesized sel

We need someone whose two parts o their

brain are talking to each otherrdquo

As principal Loew will be the ldquocentral

addressrdquo or all teachers in the K-8 pro-

gram

ldquoAs a Modern Orthodox school the

orah inorms our lives and aithulnessto our tradition is absolutely paramountrdquo

said Loew ldquoAt the same time that leaves

so much opportunity and room or learn-

ing other disciplinesrdquo

ldquoTis is big newsrdquo said Kletenik ldquoI

donrsquot know o other schools that have this

structurerdquo

Jewish day schools across the country

struggle with the financial burden placed

on amilies retaining teachers who could

earn more in the public school system

and keeping educational standards top-

notch SHArsquos strategic plan seems to be

tackling this triecta o issues by improving

the financial model educational approach

and community relationships

ldquoPeople will recognize the value o this

education and continue to invest in itrdquo said

Kletenik

Raising the quality o the education at

his previous institution is something Loew

eels proud o

ldquoTe aculty in the classrooms [is] the

ront linerdquo said Loew ldquoIrsquove been really

pleased to work with the aculty at SHA

Tey seem really passionate and dedicated

and proessional Tatrsquos really where the

success o the school lies o empower the

aculty to do what they do bestrdquo

Loew and his wie Chanie moved here

rom Hartord Conn with their five chil-

dren mdash our boys in 9th grade and under

and a 3-year-old girl Feeling it was time

or a change Loew says they were open

to anything when the job with SHA came

around He said theyrsquove been warmly wel-

comed into the community and eel privi-

leged to be here

ldquoTings just sort o ell into place in

terms o what I was looking or and wh

SHA was looking orrdquo he said ldquoTis ju

seemed to be the place where God wante

usrdquo

Thinking strategically SHA hires principal to move school forward

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

eld during her initial interview

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

the leadership management director AIPAC in Houston and Seattle She w

responsible or educating the commun

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

lived on a kibbutz in Northern Israel whe

duce itsel to the English speaking world

Pay attention A simple discovery

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

Our bridge acrossgenerationsBy Anne Boher

Recently Emily Ziskind director of life enrichment at Te Summit at FirHill asked my husband Leslie and me if wersquod like to join a group of young peopfrom Hillelrsquos Jconnect who wanted to visit and mingle with senior couples in ceebration of the Jewish holiday that honors love u brsquoAv Te couples from tholder and younger generations would come together and share information thwould hopefully strengthen the marriages of the young couples just starting ou

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

Temple Beth Hatfiloh in Olympia

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

the leadership management director AIPAC in Houston and Seattle She w

responsible or educating the commun

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

lived on a kibbutz in Northern Israel whe

duce itsel to the English speaking world

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

Our bridge acrossgenerationsBy Anne Boher

Recently Emily Ziskind director of life enrichment at Te Summit at FirHill asked my husband Leslie and me if wersquod like to join a group of young peopfrom Hillelrsquos Jconnect who wanted to visit and mingle with senior couples in ceebration of the Jewish holiday that honors love u brsquoAv Te couples from tholder and younger generations would come together and share information thwould hopefully strengthen the marriages of the young couples just starting ou

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

the leadership management director AIPAC in Houston and Seattle She w

responsible or educating the commun

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

duce itsel to the English speaking world

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

differential diagnosisrdquo

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

to eel good again eventually wanting mo

due to damaged dopamine neurons Eve

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

is not known i they recover

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics o Nor

Americardquo cites evidence that treating pr

schoolers would curb the onset o ADH

earlier but admitted that the long-ter

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

Our bridge acrossgenerationsBy Anne Boher

Recently Emily Ziskind director of life enrichment at Te Summit at FirHill asked my husband Leslie and me if wersquod like to join a group of young peopfrom Hillelrsquos Jconnect who wanted to visit and mingle with senior couples in ceebration of the Jewish holiday that honors love u brsquoAv Te couples from tholder and younger generations would come together and share information thwould hopefully strengthen the marriages of the young couples just starting ou

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

Temple Beth Hatfiloh in Olympia

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

New AJC director wants change to start in Seattle

DAN AZNOFF JTNews CorrespondentTe recently named regional director o

the American Jewish Committee in Seattle

will need cooperation rom the Chamber

o Commerce and the tourism bureau to

implement the changes she hopes to bring

to the advocacy organizationexas native Lila Pinkseld took on

the leadership role in the

regional office in late July afer

a nationwide search to replace

Wendy Rosen who lef late

last year Pinkseldrsquos goal is

to make Seattle an example o

cooperation to diplomats and

government officials

ldquoWe need to increase the

knowledge o whatrsquos hap-

pening locally and nation-

allyrdquo said Pinkseld ldquoTat will

require support and collabora-

tion rom leaders in the busi-

ness community who understand the issues

and know the truthrdquo

Pinkseld described the nationwide AJC

organization and the Seattle chapter as

being in a state o transition She explained

the organization has been an advocate or

civil rights and immigration issues since

1906 but has needed to readjust its ocus on

issues that include the rise o anti-Semitism

in Europe terrorism and the possibility o

a nuclear Iran as well as advocacy or Israel

ldquoTese are the same atrocities o the

Middle Ages repeating themselves right

now in Europerdquo she said ldquoTe only thingthe experts can all agree on is that education

is our best weapon against

ignorancerdquo

Her plan to secure the

saety o Israeli citizens and

Jews around the world begins

with opening an interaith

dialog with members o the

Christian and Muslim com-

munities

ldquohe regional oices

cannot turn on a dime but

we can make a good start

right here in Seattle as an

example o what is possiblerdquo

said Pinkseld ldquoWe want Seattle to become

a shining example to political and religious

leaders o the walls that can be torn down

through communications and educationrdquo

Te ambitious goals laid out by Pinks-

eld made her the obvious choice to fill

the executive director position in Seattle

according to Carlyn Steiner president o

the regional AJC board Steiner said she

was motivated to extend an offer to Pinks-

eld during her initial interview

ldquoTe AJC board wanted to distance our-

selves rom the Jewish Film Festival and get

back to our mission o advocacy or Israeland Jews around the worldrdquo Steiner said

ldquoLila is the right person to respond to the

shifing threats against Jews around the

worldrdquo

he board president witnessed the

renewed mistrust o Jews all across Europe

during a recent trip to Paris and Belgium

According to an update released by the AJC

in August the organization has bolstered

its presence in European cities to monitor

the situation as it develops

Steiner added that the AJC has also

established an office in Kiev to respond to

both Jewish and humanitarian needs in the

Ukraine

Pinkseld explained that the AJC needs

to develop partnerships between parlia-

ments in Europe and government officials

in the US to support the critical needs o

Jews

ldquoTe geographic position o Seattle and

the base o industry in our community mdash

high-tech aerospace mdash puts our region in

a position to become a leader in the fig

to protect and support Jewish interests

Asia in Europe and in Israelrdquo she said

Beore accepting her new role as region

director or the AJC Pinkseld served

the leadership management director AIPAC in Houston and Seattle She w

responsible or educating the commun

ties about the lobbying process and how

impacts the US-Israel relationship

In the three years between her tw

assignments or AIPAC the NYU gradua

lived on a kibbutz in Northern Israel whe

she assisted the resource developmen

department at Kinneret College to intr

duce itsel to the English speaking world

Pinkseldrsquos development experien

began at the Hillel at ulane University

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

to eel good again eventually wanting mo

due to damaged dopamine neurons Eve

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

is not known i they recover

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics o Nor

Americardquo cites evidence that treating pr

schoolers would curb the onset o ADH

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

Temple Beth Hatfiloh in Olympia

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Local prof tackles the shifting sands of the Middle East

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

Te idea came rom two ribemembers who have parents

living there

Rosie Coe the only emale rider that day

visited with her mother Perla Schneider

ldquoMom were you araid when I started

riding motorcyclesrdquo Coe asked her mother

ldquoI thought you were in good handsrdquo

Schneider responded reerring to Coersquos

fianceacute Bruce Lobree who got her into the

hobby

ldquoWhen I heard about the

ribe it was like this camara-

because wersquore all Jews and we

all ride motorcycles Itrsquos pretty

According to the JewishMotorcycle Alliance ldquohe

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

to eel good again eventually wanting mo

due to damaged dopamine neurons Eve

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

is not known i they recover

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

Local prof tackles the shifting sands of the Middle East

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Recipesrdquo was a finalist in 2013 for a James

Beard award The recipes are based on his foo

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

Pay attention A simple discovery

tool for ADHD

JANIS SIEGEL JTNews ColumnistIsraeli researchers rom el

Aviv University the Univer-

sity o Haia and the Gold-

schleger Eye Research Instituteat Sheba Medical Center el

Hashomer ound what theyrsquove

called a ldquooolproordquo method

o diagnosing children with

Attention Deficit Hyperactiv-

ity Disorder Given ADHDrsquos

uncodified set o symptoms its

unknown causes and the many

side eects o the metham-

phetamine-based drugs used

to treat children who are diag-

nosed with it according to the National

Institutes o Health it would be more than

worthwhile or parents to direct their atten-

tion to the results o this newly published

study which simply observes a suffererrsquos

micro-sized eye movements

Although the study published by Dr

Moshe Fried rom AUrsquos Sackler Faculty o

Medicine in the May 2014 issue o the jour-

nal ldquoVision Researchrdquo recommended using

these drugs or the treatment o ADHD

because its study reaffirmed they work Te

reduction o misdiagnosed children who

wonrsquot be exposed to amphetamines and

stimulants like Adderall and methylpheni-

date the generic name or Ritalin and Con-

certa could be significant

ldquoWe had two objectives going into this

researchrdquo Fried said in a university state-

ment ldquoTe first was to provide a new diag-

nostic tool or ADHD and the second was to

test whether ADHD medication really works

mdash and we ound that it doesrdquo

A simple and inexpensive 22-minute

interval exercise can accurately diagnose the

disorder

ldquoTis test is affordable and accessiblerdquo

said Fried ldquorendering it a practical and ool-

proo tool or medical proessionals Eye

movements tracked in this test are involun-

tary so they constitute a sound physiological

marker o ADHDrdquo

Researchers recorded eye and eyelid

movements known as oculomotor move-

ments in two groups o 22 ADHD-diag-

nosed patients One group was given Ritalin

and the other received no medication

Along with a third control group o 22

non-ADHD subjects they all took the Vari-

ables o Attention est where each was mea-

sured against a known standard involuntary

eye movement rate to show which attention-

related mechanisms are affected by ADHD

and to compare with the other groups

Researchers ound that the average small

involuntary twitchy movements called mic-

rosaccades and the blink rates were higher

in the ADHD groups Tey also increased

over the 22-minute period in both the med-

icated and the unmedicated groups but in

much quicker increments in the unmedi-

cated group

ldquoWith medicationrdquo wrote Fried in the

study report ldquothe level and time course o

the microsaccade rate were u

normalized to the control lev

regardless o the time interv

within trials We suggest thADHD subjects ail to mai

tain sufficient levels o arous

during a simple and prolong

task which limits their abili

to dynamically allocate atte

tion while anticipating visu

stimuli Tis impairment no

malizes with medication an

its oculomotor quantificatio

could potentially be used

differential diagnosisrdquo

According to the US Centers or Disea

Control and Prevention 11 percent o ch

dren between 4 and 17 years old were dia

nosed with ADHD in 2011 Tatrsquos nearly

million children in 2014 population figure

However the US National Institute

Drug Abuse has expressed concerns abo

serious concurrent side effects and lon

term effects in the brains o those takin

methamphetamines he drugs can al

change the unction o the brain and th

body o users the agency said

Because it increases the brainrsquos output

ter users ldquocrashrdquo when stopping it and wa

to eel good again eventually wanting mo

due to damaged dopamine neurons Eve

small doses can cause sleeplessness loss

appetite higher blood pressure and a ast

heartbeat while users can also become mo

aggressive and irritable

Researchers have also discovered th

three years afer stopping the drug dop

mine neurons were still damaged o date

A 2008 study published in ldquoChild an

Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics o Nor

Americardquo cites evidence that treating pr

schoolers would curb the onset o ADH

earlier but admitted that the long-ter

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

Our bridge acrossgenerationsBy Anne Boher

Recently Emily Ziskind director of life enrichment at Te Summit at FirHill asked my husband Leslie and me if wersquod like to join a group of young peopfrom Hillelrsquos Jconnect who wanted to visit and mingle with senior couples in ceebration of the Jewish holiday that honors love u brsquoAv Te couples from tholder and younger generations would come together and share information thwould hopefully strengthen the marriages of the young couples just starting ou

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

Temple Beth Hatfiloh in Olympia

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

The Jewish capacityfor loveBy Erin Pike

Love has been on my mindExactly one year ago I was in Israel falling in love with its natural beauty

and powerful spiritual energy It was no accident that I left the States singleand returned ready for love I knew after that trip (my first time on Birthright)that my heart had grown I could feel it stretch throughout the 10-day journeyexpanding uncomfortably growing pains in the slow heat of a desert Te tripthough brief had challenged me It forced me to truly understand how there areparts of people parts of a place that are flawed and imperfect and yet I could still

experience love within the crevices of those imperfectionsOf course I knew that concept already I just had not lived it yet So I

stepped off the plane at Sea-ac and into my first serious relationship He wasthe only partner I had been with where our friendship felt as promising as ourmutual attraction for one another I understood that to be the best kind of lovepossible wo pals with an inside joke sharing grins across the table

ldquoI love yourdquo I said one dayTen another day not long after that there was a knock on my front door

ldquoIrsquom moving onrdquo he said

We had previously been invited to join with them and a group of Holocausurvivors for lunch and based on that lovely occasion we eagerly accepted th

invitationWe were surprised to find more than 10 Summit senior couples joined by a

equal number of young couples At first the scene resembled a high school dancwith the ldquojuniorsrdquo at one end of the room and the ldquoseniorsrdquo at the other Emilquickly took charge and asked everyone to introduce themselves starting witthe younger group Te seniors were asked how long we had been married howe met and whether we had any advice for marital happiness mdash perhaps witan interesting anecdote Te young couples had similar stories except instead oblind dating they found each other on computers

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

W CAPACITY FOR LOVE PAGE 13

After he walked away I felt vacant I felt nothing I wanted to weep butfound it difficult I was frozen in a state of confusion and shock But as summerapproached my heart began to thaw and I could finally feel and love again

I had an incredible summer full of healing So when I heard that Jconnectwas hosting a u BrsquoAv event where young couples would join older couples atTe Summit on First Hill to discuss love I couldnrsquot wait to partake

As I sipped a glass of wine in the library of the Summit I found myself oddly

nervous Tere were couples in the room that had been together 23 years 45years even 65 years It was like being in a room full of great works of art andfeeling worried that I wouldnrsquot have time to take them all in A microphone waspassed around the circle of individuals many Summit residents touted half-jok-ing advice like the importance of ldquoYes dearrdquo and ldquoNever buy anything on creditrdquo

But as young couples began to mingle and converse one on one with theolder couples serious conversations emerged about the nature of togetherness(ldquoKids donrsquot give it enough timehellip you gotta work at itrdquo) and the critical senseof community (ldquoWhat a comfortable feeling to be with your own people [at theSummit] in this stage of liferdquo) Soon many of the topics had progressed fromrelationships and marriage to broader themes of Jewish identity and cultureOne resident spoke to members of Jconnect about living in Israel and his frus-tration regarding the conflicts between denominations within Judaism

A few couples also shared stories of serious world events affecting their livesMajor earthquakes evacuations war traveling by boat and the luck of being in

the right one With their clarity and perspective I had to wonder mdash how muchis our ability to love strengthened by hardship Is it possible that many of my

Jewish peers and I have encountered difficulty in love because there is a lack ofcultural urgency in our generation

I am reminded of a friendrsquos observation from a Shabbat service It was herfirst time in a synagogue and she remarked on how interesting it was that wetook time in an otherwise joyous celebration to honor relatives and communitymembers who were no longer with us Te tradition mdash celebrating life while alsoacknowledging death mdash resonated with her It was the sense that our lives do notexist forever but while wersquore alive we must live fully

Bi l l Schmidt aSummit resident adviseda couple who had been

together five years to takethe leap into marriagesaying ldquoWhat are youwaiting forrdquo

Schick and FriedaFeinberg a Summitcouple shared that theirlove had eventually pro-duced 51 grandchildrenLeslie and I had a chanceto talk about our excitingmarried life which began with an earthquake during the wedding ceremony ana forest fire that delayed our honeymoon

After the icebreaker Emily asked the young couples to break into groupwith the senior couples of their choosing Soon the room reverberated with laughter and animated conversation We felt lucky to have been chosen by a delightful couple Te young lady recently qualified as a psychiatrist and now works the VA hospital Te young man just started medical school and they now haveyoung child Te young lady hopes to persuade her grandmother to move to Seattle and maybe move into Te Summit We had a lot in common and were captureby their charm and intelligence

We all shared refreshments and all too soon it was time to say goodbye Aftewards we seniors expressed our pleasure at meeting such an attractive and attentive group of young people We hope we have a chance to visit with them again

Living life fully includes expressing and receiving love fully As the residentof Te Summit shared their insights on u BrsquoAv love for your partner love foyour people and love for your community are all integral to sustaining a healthheart well into your golden years

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Local prof tackles the shifting sands of the Middle East

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Recipesrdquo was a finalist in 2013 for a James

Beard award The recipes are based on his foo

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

o years afer first coming upon Rogersrsquos

screed in the Washington State Library I

have talked it over with riends rom my

careers in academics and government

One option I put to them is to do noth-

ing leaving the statue and Rogersrsquos rep-

utation untouched A second option is

to push or a second plaque on his statue

in downtown Olympia providing a more

complete picture o this populist A third

option is to push or removal o this statue

to a less prominent spot inside the office

building o the Superintendent o Public

Instruction or example

What was the result o my inormal poll

Whether Jew or non-Jew most avor doing

nothing No one knows whether Governor

Rogers truly was an anti-Semite What I

was asked would be the aim o sullying his

reputation at this point

Anti-Semitism was hardly uncommon

in 19th-century America especially among

Populists But Rogersrsquos anti-Semitism w

hardly benign Imagine yoursel as a Jewi

person during that time hearing or readin

such vile language coming rom a man wh

would shortly be the governor o the state

Libels such as those disseminated b

Rogers have a long history and a long li

While Governor Rogers was in many wa

a product o his times that is hardly

reason to ignore his hostility to the Jewi

people and his bizarre linking o Jews an

the crisis o the 1890s

Let me pose two questions to you

there a time limit on holding a public figu

in this state responsible or his anti-Sem

tism What should be done about Rogers

statue or the schools named afer him

Russell Lidman is a retired professor in publi

policy at Seattle University and has worked

The Evergreen State College and in the

governorrsquos office for more recent incumbent

He is also the outgoing board president of

In lame-duck period Obama administration retreats from peace endeavors

RON KAMPEAS JTA World News Service Analysis

WASHINGON (JA) mdash Does the

prospect o President Obamarsquos lame-duck

period coupled with the multiple oreign

crises he is acing diminish his quest or

Israeli-Palestinian peaceLittle on the immediate diplomatic

horizon signals an intensive US interest

in advancing the peace process

Tere have been no announcements o

high-level meetings between Obama and

the Palestinian and Israeli leaders at the

UN General Assembly which begins this

year on Sept 16 Tere have been no leaks

as there have been in the past that Obama

would be making any major statements on

the peace process at the GA

John Kerry the peripatetic US secre-

tary o state who lost count o his visits

to the region until the collapse in April o

peace talks between Israel and the Pales-

tinian Authority has no plans to return

anytime soon

Rather Kerry and Obama are ocused

on an expanding range o issues includ-

ing escalations in Russiarsquos conflict with

Ukraine pushing back against Islamist

extremists throughout the Middle East

and a looming deadline in nuclear talks

with Iran

Additionally Obama administration

relations with both the Israelis and Pales-

tinians have soured since the collapse o the

peace talks which the Americans blamed

on both sides mdash the Palestinians or resist-

ing a deadline extension Israel or expand-

ing settlement activity ensions were

exacerbated over civilian casualties among

Palestinians during Israelrsquos war with

Hamas in the Gaza Strip over the summer

Alan Solow a past chairman o the

Conerence o Presidents o Major Amer-

ican Jewish Organizations and a major

undraiser or Obamarsquos election cam-

paigns said it doesnrsquot make sense topursue a peace that the sides are not ready

to embrace

ldquoTey recognize they want to spend

their time productivelyrdquo Solow said on

uesday ldquoWhere they sense a urther

investment o time will not yield progress

there are plenty o other problems they

can turn to that may yield progressrdquo

Statements rom officials suggest that

the Obama administration is more inter-

ested in managing rather than resolving

the conflict

Jen Psaki Kerryrsquos spokeswoman said

that a meeting Kerry planned to have in

Washington with Saeb Erekat the top Pal-

estinian peace negotiator would ocus on

the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas

She did not mention the peace process

ldquoTeyrsquoll talk about a range o issues

therersquos an ongoing cease-fire discussion

and a range o longer-term issuesrdquo she said

Asked by a reporter about Palestinian

Authority President Mahmoud Abbasrsquo

latest reported proposal or a three-year

withdrawal o Israel rom the West Bank

based on UN resolutions Psaki would

say only that the United States did not see

the proposal as ldquoproductiverdquo

Jonathan Schanzer a vice president o

the Foundation or Deense o Democ-

racies a oreign policy think tank that

avors intervention counseled contin-

ued US engagement should the par-

ties decide they seriously want to discuss

peace But Schanzer said it was about time

or the Obama administration to let go o

its ambitions or a resolution to the Israeli-

Palestinian conflict

ldquoImagine i we had spent the same time

and energy fighting ISIS over the last 1

months as we had investing in the peac

processrdquo he said reerring to the jihad

ist group in Iraq and Syria that the Obam

administration has only in recent week

directly engaged

Local prof tackles the shifting sands of the Middle East

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Recipesrdquo was a finalist in 2013 for a James

Beard award The recipes are based on his foo

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

Local prof tackles the shifting sands of the Middle East

JOEL MAGALNICK Editor JTNewsInterested in knowing more about

why therersquos a war against Hamas in Gaza

Where ISIS came rom and how it came

about Why therersquos such an anti-West-

ern bias throughout the Middle East You

could get a lot o that inormation romspending hours on end ollowing link afer

link on various websites but what yoursquoll

learn will likely be biased ear-mongering

propaganda

Or you could

pick up ldquoShit-

ing Sands he

United States

in the Middle

Eastrdquo (Colum-

bia University

Press 2014)

by Pro Joel

Migdal o

t h e U n i -

ve rs it y o

Washingtonrsquos Jackson School o

International Studies As Migdal who is

airly well known within our Jewish com-

munity notes in his oreword this book

is based on lectures he gave on other cam-

puses titled ldquoTe Making o the wenty-

First Centuryrdquo Its ocus however goes

back to the early part o the 20th mostly

because the jumbled mess that constitutes

todayrsquos Middle East is the direct result o

decisions mdash we can call them bad but isnrsquot

hindsight always 2020 mdash made 30 or 50

or 100 years ago

Where Migdal takes a different tack

however is in his perspective Rather than

portraying the United States as the white

knight that comes in to save the day afer

every skirmish coup drsquoetat or civil warhe digs deep to explain how even some o

our most celebrated leaders over the past

century couldnrsquot get their heads out rom

between their legs to figure out what was

going on ldquoIn short diplomacy was raught

with uncertainty and danger Clear strate-

gic aims did not lead either to clear tactics

or a clear-cut set o policieshellip Pursuing a

coherent strategy turned out to be messy

businessrdquo

Part o the problem was the way our

leaders at any given time put the Middle

East situation into their own context

Trough the rame o the Cold War trying

to use the oligarchies and dictatorships as

pieces in the deadly chess game between the

US and the Soviet Union or example or

as an imperial power that made no bones

about its decision to invade Iraq in 2003

Even with so much access to inorma-

tion getting a grasp on the region has not

been easy ldquoFor US officials recognizing

and understanding the Middle Eastrsquos cen-

tral dynamics especially in a region that

was so undamentally transormed were

major challengesrdquo Migdal writes about

changes in the region in the 1970s and

beyond ldquoIt was not immediately clear to

US policy makers what the changes in the

region actually were what they added up

to or how to construct sensible effective

policies in response to themrdquo

Coming into the 21st century Migdal

has particular enmity toward the GeorgeW Bush administration saying that Bush

ldquomissed the totality o the transorma-

tion that had overtaken the Middle Eastrdquo

Rather than using other powers to build

strong coalitions and to help deray costs

Bushrsquos go-it-alone strategy dearly cost

America both economically and in its

world standing

Migdal is not so easy on the Obama

administration either writing that though

the president had brought in big names with

vast diplomatic experience ldquowhat was still

missing rom this mix o archers and arrows

was a clear target Tere was no compre-

hensive understanding o how the various

hotspots wars and other challenges that the

United States aced in the area intersected

with one another so that a coherent region-

wide policy could be devisedrdquo

Instead Migdal calls to ldquomove away

rom Bushrsquos and Obamarsquos elevation o the

fight to a central plank o American dome

tic and oreign policy and one o the pi

lars o strategy in the Middle East T

campaign against terrorhellipshould be see

as a chronic law-enorcement problem

one with international dimensions but should not be upgraded to an all-out war

Such goals he writes are unattainable an

ldquoerode confidence in government and pu

out more attainable aimsrdquo

While the book ends on a hopeul note

was published beore the summer when a

hell broke loose across the region so to get

that place o optimism may take more tim

than even Migdal who more or less predic

the rise o these new terror groups by aim

not by name may have believed

Given his connection to Israel and th

amount o time he has spent there Migd

gives more attention to the Jewish Sta

than another author writing a similar boo

may have done Tis doesnrsquot take aw

rom the importance o the overall oreig

policy lesson but it makes me wonder h

ell into the same trap as rest o the wor

when it comes to the attention paid to th

Israeli-Palestinian conflict

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

few crepes to really dial it in

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

Drawn together by hopes for peaceBy Jacob Greene

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

This particular day was the begining of the month of Ramadan thmost important Islamic holidaduring which adults fast every daAs we sat down to lunch outsidthe Machane Yehuda market Hosordered in Hebrew for us beautful bowls of sabich mdash eggplant anhardboiled egg atop hummus Thewere four of us but only three meal

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

A little sweetness in this season of renewal

MICHAEL NATKIN JTNews ColumnistRosh Hashanah is right

around the corner and what

could be more appropriate or

the New Year than a dessert

eaturing honey as well as egg-

rich crepes You can even sub-stitute apples or the plums i

yoursquod like to add another tra-

ditional element

I first made this or a PBS

event celebrating Julia Childrsquos

100th birthday When they

asked me to contribute a

recipe I knew right away I

wanted to do something with

crepes I only have two cookbooks rom my

mom ldquoMastering the Art o French Cook-

ingrdquo is one o them and I read it cover to

cover many times when I was just starting

out in the kitchen

O all the recipes in the book I come

back to the crepes most ofen Itrsquos a simple

thing You put all o the batter ingredients

in a blender give them a good spin let it sit

in the rerigerator or a couple o hours and

then make the crepes Sure it takes a bit o

practice to get the knack o orming a nice

thin circle finding the right heat level and

flipping them but afer one batch yoursquoll

have a skill you can use to please riends

and amily or the rest o your lie Irsquove got

some tips or you in the recipe

Te plums I use are rom my neighborrsquos

tree Tey are a French variety

but Italian plums would be just

as good What you want is one

o the varieties that has a loose

(ree) pit and is rather dense so

it can cook without the juicesrunning everywhere

Enjoy and shana tova

Crepes with RoastedPlums Yogurt andHoneyServes 6

12 crepes (one recipe from

ldquoMastering the Art of French

Cooking Volume 1rdquo see below)

9 Italian plums

2 Tbs unsalted butter melted

2 leaves fresh sage rubbed and thinly sliced

34 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 Tbs slivovitz (plum brandy) or plain brandy

or 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbs honey plus more for drizzling

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 450ordm Line a baking

sheet with parchment or a silpat Cut the

plums in half and remove the pits In a

medium bowl toss the plums with the

melted butter and sage and place the

plums on the baking sheet Roast for 10

minutes Pluck off most of the sage (For

apples use three apples peeled cored

and sliced into eighths and roast until

tender)

Stir the yogurt with the slivovitz and hon-

ey To serve fold two warm crepes into

quarters and overlap on a plate Put 2

Tbs of the yogurt on top of the crepes

and put 3 half plums on top of the yogurtDrizzle with additional honey and serve

Julia Childrsquos CrepesYields about 12 crepes

I donrsquot want to reproduce Juliarsquos recipe

in the entirety but here are the ingredi-

ents and my synopsis of the method

1 cup cold water

1 cup cold milk

4 eggs

12 tsp salt

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

(I use 9 ounces and donrsquot sift)

4 Tbs melted butter

Combine all ingredients in the blender

Blend on high speed for 1 minute scrap-

ing down the sides if needed Refrigerate

for 2 hours (Irsquove been known to omit the

refrigeration The point of this step is to al-

low the flour to hydrate but it makes quite

acceptable crepes if used immediately)

Place a 12rdquo non-stick skillet over medium

to medium-high heat with a tiny bit of but-

ter When preheated pour in 14 cup of

the batter while tilting and swirling the

skillet in all directions for a few seconds

to produce a generally circular thin crepe

If you canrsquot get the batter to spread eve

ly you need to either (1) work on your ti

ing and swirling (2) thin out the batter a b

or (3) lower the heat Expect it to take

few crepes to really dial it in

Cook until lightly browned on one sid

about 1 minute or a bit more then fl

and cook for just about 30 seconds o

the other side I usually perform the fl

by lifting the edge with a silicone spatu

and then using my fingers to rapidly tu

it over I have asbestos fingers though s

only try it this way if you feel comfortab

that you wonrsquot hurt yourself Otherwis

use two spatulas

For several months this year I l ivedin Israel The majority of my time Ispent studying with Alexander MussHigh School in Israel along with 29American and Canadian teenagerswith support from an Israel scholar-ship from the Jewish Federation ofGreater Seattle

I have many friends in Israel all ofwhom I met through Ultimate Peace(UP) an organization that bringstogether Israeli Jewish Arab Israeliand Palestinian youth through the

sport of UltimateFrisbee At theend of my studyabroad programI would be stay-ing on in Israel toparticipate in UP asa coach in training for asecond summer I wasexcited to finally see myfriends and visit them intheir cities and villages

As my time at Alexander Muss

came to a close Iwas disappointedthat I hadnrsquot beenable to visit myfriend Mohammed

ldquoHosardquo Romman aMuslim boy I had grown

close to through UltimatePeace However I finallygot that chance after UPcamp ended and itrsquos avisit Irsquoll never forget

Hosa lives in the small Arab village

of Ein Rafa directly outside of Jeruslem and I arranged to meet him witthree other American UP friends

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

26 the life amp times of Northwest Jewish teens september 5 201

j- t e e n

Hosa smiled and explained that hewas fasting We felt guilty but none-theless ate our lunches listening as heexplained the customs of Ramadan

After lunch we walked to the OldCity of Jerusalem to visit the historicalsites Despite living only a few milesfrom Jerusalem Hosa had never beento the Church of the Holy Sepulchreone of Christianityrsquos most holy placesWe stood in the courtyard outsidelooking around at the people who hadcome from far away to be at a place inHosarsquos backyard

Before going inside Hosa threw alonger sleeved shirt over his tank outof respect As we toured the church

it didnrsquot matter thatwe understood littleof the things we sawwe just knew andrespected the holinessof the place

Next we went tosee the Western Wall

another site Hosahad never visited Onour way we walkedthrough the Arab

quarter which was abuzz in prepara-tion for the eveningrsquos upcoming fes-tivities Similar to breaking the fast on

Yom Kippur meals during Ramadanresemble celebratory feasts Walkingdown the narrow alleys past shopsselling spices and fabrics men hunglights above us as the evening set in

We could feel the change in atmo-sphere as we moved from the hubbubof the Arab Quarter into the relativecalm of the Jewish Quarter Soonwe arrived at the wall also known asthe Kotel Hosa Keanan and I put onkippot and Hallie and Sarina coveredthemselves with scarves

Leaning against the wall and pray-ing I turned back to check on theothers Surveying all the people

around him Hosa had the biggestgrin on his face a smile so contagiousyou couldnrsquot help but smile back

As we walked away Hosa told ushe wished he could take us up tothe Temple Mount right above sowe could experience the three holyplaces of the three Abrahamic reli-

gions however we hadnrsquot dressedappropriately and Hallie and Sarinawould have had to wait behindDeciding it would be best to staytogether we headed out of theOld City Looking back we saw theTemple Mount resting just above theKotel where we had just stood

We boarded the bus to Hosarsquoshouse in Ein Rafa for Ramadan dinnerThroughout his village lights werestrung illuminating the darkness Thefeeling was magical Stepping intoHosarsquos apartment his parents wel-comed us His mother had laid out adelicious meal of rice chicken vege-tables and an assortment of salads

We sat down to eat with Hosarsquosfamily Though their English wasspotty and we spoke no Arabic wedid our best to communicate usingEnglish words plenty of hand ges-tures and smiles

The food tasted amazing anwhenever any of us would finish ouplate Hosarsquos mother was ready witanother helping It felt like home

After dinner Hosa showed uaround the house In his room theris a big mural which he drew himselAmazed we asked to see more of h

work unaware our friend was suca talented artist Reaching under hbed he pulled out binders of artworand as we look through them a thembecame apparent Peace Every drawing every painting every sketch waof a dove of Palestinians and Jewtogether This is Hosarsquos dream

My visit to Ein Rafa was on June 29The next night the bodies of threJewish boys who had gone missintwo weeks earlier from a West Bansettlement were discovered Thtragedy would spark a war betweeHamas in Gaza and Israel just dayafter I had left the country Itrsquos harto believe I was with Hosa just a fewweeks ago that we toured the OlCity of Jerusalem together and tooin the sites Back home in SeattleI think of my friends every day anhope for peace
