  • Jødene Som Søkte Tilflukt I Frafjord
    Jødene som søkte tilflukt i Frafjord Av: Christian F. Uhl, mai 2020 Historien om de norske jødene og deres skjebne under 2. verdenskrig er en vond historie. Heldigvis greide mange å flykte til Sverige, men for dem som ble igjen ventet det en grusom skjebne. Det som gjør denne historien ekstra vond er bevisstheten om likegyldigheten som ble jødene til del da registreringen og arrestasjonene kom – og ikke minst at det var norske politifolk og lensmenn som stod for det hele, etter ordre fra det nazistiske statspolitiet. Norge var det landet i Skandinavia som hadde færrest jøder da 2. verdenskrig brøt ut. De fleste av de tilsammen ca 2000 norske jødene hadde kommet hit fra Russland og de baltiske land rundt år 1900. De fleste drev med handelsvirksomhet, og etter hvert åpnet de butikker i de byene de slo seg ned. Da krigen brøt ut, var 22 av verdens 17 millioner jøder bosatt i Stavanger. Denne artikkelen tar for seg to familier, Fein og Reichwald, som søkte tilflukt innerst i Frafjord. Julius og Rösi Fein En av dem var Julius Fein som ble født i Klikoli i Litauen i 1885. Han kom til Norge i 1904, som en av flere søsken. Julius bodde flere steder i Norge før han flyttet til Stavanger. Han jobbet blant annet som taktekker hos broren Nathan i Arendal og drev egen manufakturforretning i Tønsberg. I 1911 solgte han denne butikken og flyttet til Stavanger der han åpnet en forretning, Berliner Bazaren A/S (senere Feins Magasin) i Østervåg 15. Han importerte og solgte mange slags varer som glass, porselen og leketøy.

  • An Urgent Statement from Hospitals in the City of Toronto and the Regions of Durham, Halton, Peel and York GTA Hospitals Support Further Lockdown Measures
    An Urgent Statement from Hospitals in the City of Toronto and the Regions of Durham, Halton, Peel and York GTA Hospitals Support Further Lockdown Measures December 20, 2020 - Today, on behalf of our patients, health care workers and staff, we are supporting the Ontario Hospital Association’s call for stronger lockdown measures from the Government of Ontario. Across the Greater Toronto Area, COVID-19 infections are continuing to rise, as are hospitalizations and intensive care cases. These trends show no sign of slowing – in fact, a surge in cases following the holiday season is expected to make the situation even worse. Our staff are caring for increasing numbers of COVID-19 patients in hospitals and assisting in other settings such as long-term care homes. They are also keeping up with the care needs of patients without COVID-19 and trying to make progress in the significant backlog of scheduled surgeries and procedures cancelled during the first wave. For many months now, these frontline health care workers have been devoting enormous energy and skill to caring for their patients, at the very epicenter of the pandemic. They are stressed and overstretched. This level of strain is simply not sustainable for much longer. We are seeing increasing numbers of staff becoming ill and not able to work – both with COVID-19 and other illnesses. While we are coping and planning for redeployment, we are seeing more illness and stress and hearing about the toll this is taking on people’s families. We recognize that lockdown measures are challenging for many members of our communities, but we cannot afford to put patients and health care workers at further risk.

    25th Commemorations of the Genocide against the Tutsis: "Mr. President, it is time to make a statement of truth! " Mr. President, It has been 25 years since the genocide against the Tutsis has been perpetrated in Rwanda. Over the course of three months, more than one million people were exterminated by extremists coming together as the Hutu Power movement, with a massive participation of the population. The consequences of this genocide are still felt today. This past, particularly for France, does not pass. Since your election, you have sent signals of hope that the time has come to put an end to the French position characterized by silence and denial since the genocide took place. After 25 years, it is finally time to take the necessary steps in order to shed light on the truth and pursue justice. Mr. President, next April 7th your place is in Kigali, amongst the highest representatives of the international community. By the side of the survivors. France has cancelled its participation at the 20th commemoration of the genocide; your presence this year would repair this disgrace. What survivors, youth, French civil society, Rwanda, and Europe are expecting from you first and foremost is that truth be told. Even though genocide denial persists in its attempt to manipulate History, you must state the obvious : in 1994, in Rwanda, a genocide has been perpetrated against the Tutsi people. You must further explain the words spoken in Kigali in 2010 from your predecessor, former President of the French Republic Nicolas Sarkozy, who recognized that “errors of judgement and political errors have been made here and have produced absolutely dramatic consequences”.
