I have been watching the Greek news from the start and following the fires. Israel was said to be one of the first countries to send help to the people of Greece. <BR/><BR/>We cannot forget the relationship of the Jews and Greeks since ancient times. Alexander the Great insisted the Jews of the time practice their faith and have the Torah translated to Greek. If it wasn't for him we would not be able to study the Torah in our native language.<BR/><BR/>Lets not forget also, the Greeks of Salonika. Many of them sacrificed their lives hiding Jews from the barbarian Nazis. <BR/><BR/>To this day Greece has museums and Synagogues honoring and respecting Jews of Greece. Greece is a peace loving country that invites all people of the world to share its culture, history and land.<BR/><BR/>PS. maybe they prayed for rain but it never came did it? :)<BR/>shalom!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
