My Minolta DTL1000 was repaired by:

The battery contacts were corroded and there were some other issues.
Repair was quick and inexpensive.
This should sum it up:
"When we were led into the gas chamber, YOU said nothing.
When we were forcibly converted, YOU said nothing.
When we were thrown out of a country
just for being Jews, YOU said nothing.
When we now defend ourselves
all of a sudden, YOU have something to say.
How did we take our revenge
on the Germans for their Final Solution?
How did we take revenge
on the Spanish for their Inquisition?
How did we take revenge
on Islam for being Dhimmis?
How did we take revenge
on the lies of the Protocols of Zion?
We studied our Torah
We innovated in medicine
We innovated in defense systems
We innovated in technology
We innovated in agriculture
We made music
We wrote poetry
We made the desert bloom
We won Nobel prizes
We founded the movie industry
We financed democracy
We fulfilled the word of Hashem by becoming a light unto the Nations of the Earth.
So World, when you criticize us for defending our heritage and our ancestral homeland, we the Jews of the world do exactly what you did, we ignore you.
You have proven to us for the last 2,000 years that when the chips are down, you don’t care.
Now leave us alone and go sort out your own backyard whilst we continue our 5784-year-old mission, enhancing the world we share.”

Since the United States is a Constitutional Republic, this quote is somewhat irrelevant as it applies to us.
Excellent video, Rabbi. Shabbat Sholom.
What gets me is that the "Arabs" voluntarily left their homes when Israel declared statehood because they expected to be on the winning side so they can return. History has shown that their belief was false.
There is no mention of the Jews that were expelled from their homes upon the creation of Israel. Selected memory?
From what I gathered, palestine was a name given by a Roman emperor after the 2nd Bar Kokbar uprising and is a derogatory form of Philistine, who were the enemies of the Kingdom of Israel, and who lived in the area of Gaza.

I lived near the Long Island Rail Road (yes, two words), which was a commuter line into NYC. It was a short walk from my house to get a cheap ride into Manhattan.
The LI RR had a "stop" at Grumman Aerospace in Bethpage LI. IIRC, there wasn't a platform, only a step ladder down to the tracks. You'd then have to show your badge to enter the property.

TriX, I appreciate your view of Petter Hörnfeldt. It's true that I haven't watched his vblogs other than the one I took exception to. And I have no criticism for his flying expertise. But this particular vlog was not about flying skill, it was supposedly a factual report on the history of Boeing and its leadership.
I am also a pilot and was a part of that company's corporate headquarters for more than 20 years, knew many of the personalities responsible for decisions, and why the decisions were made. I did not always agree with some of the decisions (especially the sale of the Wichita plant), but I left with a great admiration for the company and its century plus leadership of the world aerospace industry.
Unfortunately, Petter Hörnfeld's view of the company's history is solely from the outside, many thousands of miles removed, and without any first-hand knowledge of events. The video clips he used to create credibility were great, but the narrative was written based upon magazine and internet commentary written by third party critics who did not have direct knowledge, and who sought attention through distortions of truth, inuendo, or pure speculation.
It's a sad commentary that many of the rewritings of history being made today are corrupted by the hubris of the writers. And people who base their knowledge on self-appointed "experts" and anonymous internet trolls without bothering to dig into the facts, will believe anything.
TriX, I appreciate your view of Petter Hörnfeldt. ... (

I was on loan from NGC to Douglas Aircraft to assist in the C-17 NEAT program. My DAC friends felt as if they were sold down the river because they had lost a lot of value in their retirements. I re-connected with some of them at Boeing in 2013 on the B787-9, but they were still bitter

Christ was a Jew and Judaism does not consider a pregnancy a separate life... so abortion is acceptable.
Your comment shows a severe lack of understanding of Jewish thought on the subject. See link above.
