Artfldgr:

Set up a website with your artwork and I’ll link to it.”

I was going to suggest that he set up a blog. It is free to do so.

Of course a .com website costs very little more. Since he says he is an IT man, it should present very little in the way of challenge.

Is he crippled? Has his stroke left him in a wheel chair or otherwise debilitated?

If not it seems as though he needs to – and this is no joke – get some exercise.

And since Art has apparently such a powerful memory for detail and trends, why not open an online trading account?

Certainly playing for pennies, initially, on the market would present the prospect of advancing financially outside a master-servant employee relationship, and would require nothing like the funds potentially required for the capitalization of a successful business.

And of course, I did not, and Art knows that I did not mean to suggest that his father and grandfather were literally listening to him.

As he well knows, what I meant is what these men would think of the kind of damned if I do damned if I don’t victim talk he is spouting.

Art: If you are in a wheelchair, I apologize. If you are not, stand up and get moving. It almost doesn’t matter where, as long as you are doing the willing and direction. You apparently have been cheated and if you are to be believed the victim of astounding judicial malpractice. You also seem to believe that you have special talents that are not being appreciated and enabled; and that the spirit of the age will not allow you to be the man you want to be.

My suggestion is that you not ask for permission or validation. Do as Neo said. Work around the walls by using the Internet to make money rather than rehash your case.

You want some motivation? Every little success you have puts you one step closer to a financial position where you can again seek justice. If you still care about it, that is.

Of course you might just be mentally ill in which case I am wasting my time trying to cheer you up and get you to act like a settler family which has found their ranch burned to the ground and no one around to comfort them.

You are alive aren’t you? Fight back with what you have got. Bitching isn’t getting you where you want to be, so what have you got to lose by taking Neo’s advice? On your own terms … nothing to lose but much to potentially gain.

If your art work is any good and you start selling for millions, I’ll expect that you will have put a free one aside for me.

Especially weak since Hollande had already said, on the day of the killings at the kosher grocery, that they were anti-Semitic. The French have already said exactly what they consider it, with crystal clarity:

Hollande called for national unity and said the country should remain “implacable” in the face of racism and anti-Semitism.

“It is indeed an appalling anti-Semitic act that was committed,” he said of the hostage-taking by an Islamist gunman at the Hyper Cacher supermarket in the Vincennes district.

Lee pressed: “Does the administration believe this was an anti-Jewish attack on a Jewish community in Paris?”

“I don’t think we’re going to speak on behalf of French authorities and what they believe was the situation,” Psaki concluded.

I just found that to be incredibly obnoxious. It sounds deferential superficially, but it’s just a very weak way to avoid answering an obvious question. Josh Earnest and the president can make up their own minds what they think of the incident without having to defer to the French on it. But I did make this observation about the French response (the Prime Minister, Manuel Walls, was especially good about acknowledging that it was an attack on Jewish people). You’ll remember they ordered out the army to protect places around the country. And what kind of places did they protect? Grocery stores? Was it a “random” attack on grocery stores? No, what they sent the army out to guard were Jewish-affiliated locations – schools, synagogues and places like that. That was the pertinent criterion. It’s pretty clear what the French authorities thought of the incident from that reaction.

M J R now replies: Your points are well taken.

It is my impression from what I’ve read (don’t have a link right now) that the majority of the French Jews leaving France are the more observant Jews…

You are correct. At this point it goes without saying. Same situation as here … and, same situation as in the 1930’s …
Nothing learned, everything forgotten. Sigh.
Was listening to Rabbi Lapin on KSFO. He’s seething: nothing learned, nothing …

Set up a website with your artwork and I’ll link to it.

It is my impression from what I’ve read (don’t have a link right now) that the majority of the French Jews leaving France are the more observant Jews, whose families mainly came from North Africa in the mid-20th century. They are the ones most at risk for violence because they shop in kosher stores, attend synagogue, and wear identifying clothing as orthodox Jews. They also tend (at least, in this country and Israel) to vote more conservatively than secular Jews do. It is secular and reform Jews who vote strongly to the left, and I believe that is true in France as well, although I’ve not read anything specifically on that subject.

Huge? French Jewish pop. is about 600,000.
Lately it looks like a few thousands more than is normal have left:

French Jews vote like shiat. Example, at one point they accounted for on fourth of the uber Socialist Mittertand cabinet….

Jew Fabius is the current Foreign matters guys. He’s very err … nuanced.
Sigh!

sitting around waiting for the end is pretty much all i have
