Verdad, Memoria y Justicia

Exactamente hace 22 años una bomba estallaba en la puerta de Pasteur 633 dejando 85 mu***os y más de 300 heridos. Sueños sin cumplir, proyectos sin empezar e historias sin ser contadas. Porque tenemos Memoria, exigimos Justicia. Porque todos ellos vivirán mientras los recordemos. Porque no queremos nada menos que la verdad y no exigimos nada más que la justicia. La memoria nos une.

Jorgito (19 años) trabajaba como mozo en un bar de Tucumán y Pasteur y pasaba por la AMIA varias veces por día a entregar pedidos y conversar las chicas de recepción. Tenía planes de terminar séptimo grado en una escuela nocturna, para hacer, después, alguna carrera corta con salida laboral. Jorge era sanjuanino y había llegado a Buenos Aires hacía dos años. El próximo 18 a las 9:53 se cumplirán 22 años del día en el que a Jorge Antunez, una de las 85 victimas que dejó el brutal atentado de 1994, le quitaron la posibilidad de vivir. Exigimos justicia, sumate vos también el lunes 18 a las 9:30 en Pasteur 633 o en otros puntos del país http://goo.gl/WGsNTw

Since we are getting to our last day of Sukkot, we just wanted to explain a bit of this Holiday to our followers:

For forty years, as our ancestors traversed the Sinai Desert, following the Exodus from Egypt, miraculous "clouds of glory" surrounded and hovered over them, shielding them from the dangers and discomforts of the desert. Ever since, we remember G-d's kindness and reaffirm our trust in His providence by dwelling in a sukkah--a hut of temporary construction with a roof covering of branches--for the duration of the Sukkot festival (on the Jewish calendar Tishrei 15-21). For seven days and nights, we eat all our meals in the sukkah and otherwise regard it as our home.

Another Sukkot observance is the taking of the Four Kinds: an etrog (citron), a lulav (palm frond), three hadassim (myrtle twigs) and two aravot (willow twigs). On each day of the festival (excepting Shabbat), we take the Four Kinds, recite a blessing over them, bring them together in our hands and wave them in all six directions: right, left, forward, up, down and backward. Our sages in the midrash tell us that the Four Kinds represent the various types and personalities that comprise the community of Israel, whose intrinsic unity we emphasize on Sukkot.

Kosher McDonald's at Abasto Shopping Mall

A trip to McDonald’s may not be the first item on a Jewish traveler’s to-do list when arriving in a new city. But there is something special about Buenos Aires: it is home to the only kosher McDonald’s outside of Israel.
The kosher version of the golden-arched fast food chain is found in the Abasto shopping mall, in the ethnically diverse neighborhood of the same name. There are long lines on a Saturday evening following the end of the Sabbath as Jewish groups and families alike hustle for the famous burgers and fries.
