[email protected] Fall 2017 Vol 18, Issue 3 Page 1 www.merrickjc.org Most Jews include in their celebration of Rosh Hashanah the custom of eating a piece of apple dipped in honey in the hope that the New Year ahead will be one of good- ness and sweetness. Less well known is the custom on Rosh Hashanah of eating other foods which symbolically express our hope that the New Year will be blessed in a variety of ways. For instance we eat a pomegranate and offer a prayer that the year be one in which our good deeds will multiply like the seeds of a pomegranate. It was the sixteenth century Rabbi Yehuda Loewy who explained the development of this custom. Rabbi Loewy saw a special significance to our beginnings each Rosh Hashanah. In his view Rosh Hashanah establishes an an- gle of trajectory which helps to determine our aspirations, our goals our priorities, our dreams and our hopes for the New Year. In his writings, Rosh Hashanah and then Yom Kippur, are the days on which we determine the arc of our year. How high will we lift ourselves? Will we elevate our commit- ments? Will we raise our game high enough to meet our expectations of ourselves and others’ expectations of us? Will we begin the New Year with a heartfelt desire to be more understanding, to offer more kindness, to increase the good deeds we perform and the overall goodness we bring into the world? Will we see our role as people who are asked to share our blessings more generously? Perhaps you can think about it this way. If you were in dialogue with the person you were one year ago – would that person say to you today – really, you’ve done that? You’ve changed that much? I’m proud of you. You didn’t remain in one place. How often we think that we are not the kind of person who can begin again, but all of us can do precisely that. The foods we consume on Rosh Hashanah communicate the powerful idea that beginnings are pregnant with possibilities. A year from now we can surprise ourselves as we look back and realize how the tra- jectory of this Rosh Hashanah led us to a year of renewal, growth and change. That potential makes this time of the year incredibly exciting and spiritually energizing. Betty joins me in wishing you and yours a very sweet, healthy and good New Year. May it be a year of wonderful new beginnings for all of us. Rabbi Charles A. Klein We are so grateful to our very dear friends in the con- gregation who made donations in honor of our grandson Michelle & Michael Schwartz & Family Evan’s becoming a Bar Mitzvah. Your thoughtfulness is Senior Rabbinic Chair always appreciated by our family. May we continue to share times of simcha for many years to come. Yours, Charles & Betty Klein Page 2 Who are the Members of The Merrick Jewish Centre? I have the honor of greeting most everyone when they first join The Merrick Jewish Centre. WE speak by phone and email, I give them tours of the building, and I guide them through the application process. They enter our family for various reasons including; 1) the religious education of their children, 2) seeking a new spiritual home, and 3) the opportunity to participate in MJC’s many activities throughout the year. For bookkeeping purposes, MJC families are categorized as Full families, Single families, Associates, JCC, Legacy, Sustaining, and Seniors. MJC members come from all walks of life. They are accountants, attorneys, dentists, doctors, financial planners, graphic designers, computer experts, HR, nurses, musicians, pet care, plumbers, recruiters, retailers, salespeople, stock brokers, teachers, veterinarians, and possess so many more professions. Our members are also homemakers, retirees, students and volunteers. What are the commonalities of MJC members? I ask each member as they join, “Where are you coming from?” Most respond not only by saying the name of their former shul, but provide me with the reason they are particularly joining the MJC. The most common reasons are; the MCJ is a large and vibrant syn- agogue blessed with strong spiritual leadership, dynamic educators, and active programming for all ages and demographics. We are open 7 days a week. Your synagogue does great things and serves tens of thousands of people in the Merrick/Bellmore community and beyond. The Merrick Jewish Centre is the sum of its parts. Our reputation is the result of YOUR commitment to the preservation of a strong and vibrant Conservative Jewish presence on the South Shore of Long Island. We are defined by our membership. Each and every one of you are the reason we are thriving. Yes - we are blessed with incredible clergy and committed staff - but it is the membership who empowers MJC leader- ship to be great. It is YOUR commitment to The Merrick Jewish Centre that will see us continue to serve the community into the future. Being a member of the MJC is making a statement - You are saying that you have a com- mitment to Israel - to helping other people - to learning more about your faith and culture. Be proud of belonging to the MJC. Whether you joined this summer or you have been a member for 60 years, know that you are part of something bigger than yourself. I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a sweet and healthy New Year 5778. May it be filled with simcha and joy.

    Remembering the Munich Olympics Gene Eisen Terrorists Strike The 1972 Summer Olympics held in Munich, West Germany, were breezing along successfully for the first ten days. Then, tragedy struck in the early morning hours of September 5. The Palestinian Black September terrorists attacked eleven Israeli team members in their dormitory. After a struggle, the terrorist killed two Israelis, and nine Israelis were taken hostage. West Germany issued a postal souvenir sheet, Scott B489a-d, on August 18, 1972. The sheet pictures the 1972 Olympic Games Village (Figure 1 red arrow). Shown are the men’s buildings in the section above the 40+20pf stamp.

Map showing the 'Western line' and blast locations. The 11 July 2006 Mumbai train bombings were a series of seven bomb blasts that took place over a period of 11 minutes on the Suburban Railway in Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay), capital city of the Indian state of Maharashtra and India's financial capital. 209 people lost their lives and over 700 were injured in the attacks. Details The bombs were placed on trains plying on the western line of the suburban ("local") train network, which forms the backbone of the city's transport network. The first blast reportedly took place at 18:24 IST (12:54 UTC), and the explosions continued for approximately eleven minutes, until 18:35, during the after-work rush hour. All the bombs had been placed in the first-class "general" compartments (some compartments are reserved for women, called "ladies" compartments) of several trains running from Churchgate, the city-centre end of the western railway line, to the western suburbs of the city. They exploded at or in the near vicinity of the suburban railway stations of Matunga Road, Mahim, Bandra, Khar Road, Jogeshwari, Bhayandar and Borivali.

  • The Munich Massacre
    The Munich Massacre Munich, Germany Munich Olympic Headquarters September 4, 1972 7:00 pm Sunlight glittered on the West German flag, causing the bottom gold strip to shine almost as bright as the stars. Kathrin glanced up at the beauty of her country's flag and said a silent prayer in her head. Nine days ago the Olympic games had started and gone forward without a hitch. She and the rest of the Federal Republic of Germany could not help but feel a swell of proudness in their hearts as the games continued. For so long the world had gazed at them through the eyes of the deeds their parents and grandparents had committed more than 3o years ago. These games marked an opportunity to show the world that they were no longer the blood stricken country they had been in the past. They were a new Germany. Kathrin let her eyes roam the flag once more and the smile waivered on her face. The games were not over yet. She knew well enough the potential that destruction had and she refused to give it a foothold. Entering the Olympic Headquarter building, she brisked her way through security and into her office, where her appointment was already there waiting. “Good evening, Shmuel.” Kathrin said in a warm voice, that filled the room. She smiled and shook his hand. Earlier that day he had asked to meet with her, and by the tone of his voice Kathrin knew that this was not just another friendly visit . She expressed an attitude in which any hostess should have when the head of the Olympic Israeli delegation should ask to meet.

  • The Great Disasters Podcast Is Written, Researched and Produced by Kari Fay
    The Munich Olympics Massacre It was meant to be a coming together of nations, in peace, to celebrate sporting excellence. For the athletes attending, it was the pinnacle of their achievements, a moment to be proud of. For some, it held even more meaning. It was the first OIympic Games to be held in Germany since 1936, when it had been under the auspices of the Nazi regime. Now, stepping into the arena, an Israeli team held their flag high. Eleven of them would not return alive. I’m Kari Fay, and this is Great Disasters. The theme of the 1972 Summer Olympics was an optimistic one; the official motto was “Glückliche Spiele” or The Happy Games, and the logo was a bright blue sun. The West German government was keen to present their new democratic Germany well, and the Olympics seemed like the perfect opportunity to do so. In contrast to the militaristic 1936 Games, which were festooned with swastikas and presided over by Hitler himself, these would be bright, open and carefree. Their security personnel would be discreet, and they would subtly deal with drunkenness or ticket fraud, without disrupting the joyous atmosphere. When they were dispatched to deal with a congregation of Maoist supporters in the Olympic Park, they dispersed the crowd by giving them candy. They allowed people to come and go somewhat freely; athletes later reported that it was easy for anybody to walk into the Olympic Village, so long as they were dressed like athletes. The athletes themselves took liberties with security arrangements, often scaling the fences around the village rather than walk the long way around to the gates.

  • Bezeq Issues Special Telecard in Memory of the 11 Athletes Murdered at the Munich Olympics
    Bezeq issues special Telecard in memory of the 11 athletes murdered at the Munich Olympics September 26, 2005 Bezeq issues special Telecard in memory of the 11 athletes murdered at the Munich Olympics Bezeq and the Olympic Committee have cooperated in the issue of a special Telecard to commemorate the eleven Israeli athletes who were murdered at the Olympic Games in Munich in 1972. The face of the card shows a picture of the Israeli delegation at the opening ceremony, and the reverse side are the names of the 11 murdered athletes. The Telecard, which went on sale in August, is for 50 units and sells for 28 shekels. On 28 September 2005, the 33rd anniversary of the tragic event (according to the Hebrew date), the card will be displayed at the State ceremony organized by the Olympic Committee, which will take place at the memorial site in Weizmann Street, Tel Aviv. A framed photograph of the card will be presented by Bezeq representatives to the athletes' families. "Bezeq sees great importance in the commemoration of the Israeli athletes, as a social message," said Eldad Cohen, manager of the Marketing Department. "In 2004 more than 3 million Telecards were sold. Such widespread distribution is a good platform for disseminating important social messages relating to the Israeli experience." On 5 September 1972, eight Black September terrorists burst into the Israeli living quarters in the Olympic Village and sullied the Olympic flag by murdering 11 members of the Israeli delegation. The Olympic Committee in Israel commemorates the legacy of those victims: David Berger Yossef Gottfreund Moshe Weinberg Eliezer Halfin Mark Slavin Ze'ev Friedman Yossef Romano Kahat Shor Andrei Spitzer Amizur Shapira Yaakov Springer May their memory be blessed .

  • Black September, Harvard Paper, 2006.Pdf
    Frédérique Baumgartner Spring 2006 [email protected] Christoph Draeger, Black September1 On September 5, 2002, Christoph Draeger’s solo show opened at the Magnus Müller Gallery in Berlin. The exhibition consisted of a video installation entitled Black September, 2 which Draeger made in New York at the end of the year 2001. 3 The opening date of the show, as the artist intended, was by no means accidental, but on the contrary, deeply meaningful, on different historical levels. First, it signaled the thirtieth anniversary of the hostage-taking and subsequent killing of eleven Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympic Games, by the Palestinian terrorist group know as Black September.4 Draeger’s work is titled after the latter, as it focuses on this terrorist act which spoke for the rising of international terrorism in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Second, September 2002 marked the first-year anniversary of 9/11, the most blatant 1 I would like to thank Christoph Draeger for meeting with me in April 2006 as I was working on this paper. Christoph’s answers to my questions regarding Black September and his work in general were full of insight and extremely helpful to me. 2 Other exhibition venues of Black September notably include Roebling Hall (New York), Susanne Vielmetter Projects (Los Angeles), Montevideo (Amsterdam), Art Unlimited (Basel), Consejeria de las artes (Madrid.) Up-coming venues include Poland and Oldenburg, Germany. 3 Christoph Draeger was born in Zurich in 1965. After graduating from the School of Visual Arts in Luzern and from the École nationale supérieure des Arts Visuels de la Cambre in Brussels, he joined, in 1996, the International Studio Program at P.S.1 in New York.
