Sophia, I thought this may be of interest to you.

** A group of prominent British Jews have launched an organization to counterbalance what they perceive as uncritical support of Israel by major Jewish institutions in the UK.

The organization, called Independent Jewish Voices, or IJV, includes well-known public figures in Britain's Jewish community, including Nobel Prize winner Harold Pinter and fashion designer Nicole Farhi.

We go to London to speak with two of the group¹s members. **

Richard,

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE LINK. ALL WE NEED IS HOPE AND THE INDEPENDANT JEWISH VOICES IS ONE OF THESE INITITIVES THAT GIVES HOPE IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE A RATHER SOMBER FUTURE FOR THE ME.

At last, I do believe there is some hope, Sophia.

And as the old saying goes, This Old Brit is putting his money where his mouth is. And expecting some extra work 'moderating'. ;^)
