whoa

Other Christian evidence, however, proposed that Jews needed the blood of murdered Christian children because Jewish males are cursed with a variety of peculiar physical defects. As Leon Poliakov noted, medieval Christian polemicists depicted Jewish men as "suffering from a thousand malignant afflictions that only Christian blood can cure.... They are born misshapen, they are hemorrhoidal and, men as well as women, afflicted with menses. From this point of view, they are women, that is, inframen."(

tbh "inframen" sounds like a group of superheros

Yesterday someone (unaware of my being jewish) called me "the biggest jew I've ever seen"

of course I heard it as "biggest dude I've ever seen"

"The Ministry of Immigrant Absorption's campaign clearly did not take into account American Jewish sensibilities, and we regret any offense it caused. The campaign, which aimed to encourage Israelis living abroad to return home, was a laudable one, and it was not meant to cause insult. The campaign was conducted without the knowledge or approval of the prime minister's office or of the Israeli embassy in Washington. Prime Minister Netanyahu, once made aware of the campaign, ordered the videos immediately removed from YouTube, and he ordered that the billboards be removed as well. The prime minister deeply values the American Jewish community and is committed to deepening ties between it and the State of Israel."

Honor successfully restored for diaspora Jewish community!

this list is really really bad:

he's the worst

does anyone whose German is better than mine wanna read this 1890 article w/ me about the Jewish ban on polygamy in the 11th century?

Um I would be totally in to that, but despite my (very German) last name, I speak nein Germanish.

warum konnen sie nicht vor judenpolygamie in englisch lesen?

tho if u can speak yiddish fluently, you can probably understand more german than i can

the piece is only available in german, and my crappy yiddish isn't good enough to understand it (it being a scholarly paper from 1890)

that is probably beyond my idle effort too

what do you know about the context already?

well, it's cited by the jewish encyclopedia + various jewish year books etc as the earliest, most extensive discussion of the ban. i can read the hebrew in the article, which is mostly quoted from the ban, and the little german i can read seems to discuss the context of the ban in the 11th century. i'm trying to figure out what reasons he gave for the ban, and i suspect they're somewhere in the paper.

(it also seems to discuss whether or not the prohibition against reading someone else's mail actually comes from this ban)

one possible reason (tho not mentioned w/ relation to Reb Gershom's ban) was written by the Ritba: "Where the customary practice is only to marry one woman, [a man] is not entitled to marry another woman in addition to his wife, since it is an implied term that she married him with the understanding that he not marry another woman."

also, i speculate that it has something to do w/ the section of the ban that says a man cannot force his wife to accept a divorce. if it was to bolster that, the ban on polygamy may just be a way of not letting men get around not divorcing their wives by marrying a new wife and ignoring the first one.

the jews, a practical people

Shocker.

It only just occurred to me that the thread title was probably meant to be "jewish noize sandboxers." All time typo.

Happy Chanukah, biatches!
