Hello,
This week I started posting articles on FactsOfIsrael.com
from the French and Brazilian media in their original language.
It'll give an additional perspective to how different countries
perceive the war between Israel and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad,
Hamas and Arafat's terrorist groups.
As a reader of our newsletter, I'd like to know
your opinion: will articles in languages other than English make
you more or less likely to visit FactsOfIsrael.com? Please
send me an email,
and let me know if you have additional suggestions
or remarks.
I have almost finished translating the core website
to French - this includes the Maps, History, Stats, Palestine and
Democracy pages. This will allow anyone speaking French to learn
a bit more about Israel and the Middle East - and God knows that
the French need it.
Thanks for being interested in the facts.
Be careful out there,

All of the Palestinian genocide bombers that
have deliberately murdered hundreds of Israeli and American civilians
in the last two years come from the West Bank. The distance between
the West Bank and Netanya, a major Israeli city, is 9 miles (15
km).
Many Palestinian terrorists from the Hamas and Islamic Jihad also
tried to attack from Gaza, but an electronic fence and Israel's
soldiers have stopped them all.
For more details on the West Bank and Gaza, check out the FactsOfIsrael.com

and History
pages.

Adam Weinstein, 14
http://www.walk4israel.com/index.cfm?fuseaction =victimInfo&memberID=232&start=1
Faces of the Victims has
published the story of Adam Weinstein,
a 14-year-old kid who was deliberately murdered by Palestinian genocide bombers.
Adam Weinstein, 14
was celebrating a birthday
when a Palestinian genocide bomber killed him
Adam Weinstein was celebrating a friend's birthday in a cafe in Jerusalem.
At 11:30 he was on his way with his friends to take the bus home. A few minutes before
the suicide bombing, his mother and brother called him, and he told them, "I'm on my way
to the bus." Five minutes later he was killed.
Adam lived in Givon Hahadasha, a community north of Jerusalem. He was the youngest of
three brothers. "Adam was a computer genius", said his brother Assaf. "He was a good
soul, who never cursed. He had many friends, who were always with him. He was a good and
talented ninth-grade student, who liked playing basketball and playing the piano," said
his older brother.
Adam Weinstein was buried in the Givat Shaul cemetery in Jerusalem. He is survived by
his parents and two brothers, Assaf and Eidan, both soldiers.
May God bless his memory.

The Coordination Forum for Countering Antisemitism
http://www.antisemitism.org.il/
The Coordination Forum for Countering Antisemitism is a state forum that monitors
Antisemitic and Anti-Jewish activities throughout the world. It coordinates the struggle
against this phenomenon with various government bodies and Jewish organizations around the
world.
The Forum receives information on antisemitic activity from a variety of sources, checks this
information and publishes it in regular reports. The Forum convenes periodically to hear
updated reports and establish policy on how to counter different forms of antisemitism.
Israel, as the Jewish State gives the highest priority to the security of Jewish
communities around the world and has undertaken to do everything in its power to
eradicate anti-Jewish activity.
The struggle against antisemitism must unfortunately persist and requires our constant
attention. This entails learning and understanding the extent of the phenomenon and
recruiting all the relevant resources to fight it wherever and whenever it appear.
Members of the forum are as follows: the Israeli Education and Foreign Ministries, the Prime
Minister's Office/Information Centre and Government Secretariat, the Jewish Agency, ADL,
World Jewish Congress, B'nei Brith and Academic research institutes - the Stephen Roth Institute
of Tel Aviv University and the Vidal Sasson Institute of the Hebrew University.
