April 3 (UPI) — A provincial government in Pakistan on Friday prevented the release of four men suspected in the 2002 death of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, a day after a court cleared them.
The Sindh government used the Maintenance of Public Order law to keep Omar Saeed Sheikh and three others behind bars for another 90 days while prosecutors appeal the court ruling.
Sheikh, a British native, has spent 18 years on death row after he was convicted of Pearl’s disappearance and death. Fahad Naseem, Syed Salman Saqib and Sheikh Mohammad Adil were also jailed in in the case.
The Sindh high court on Thursday commuted Sheikh’s sentence to seven years for just Pearl’s kidnapping and acquitted the other three. The ruling brought condemnation from the U.S. State Department.

Everyone’s mad at de Blasio’s ‘Jewish community’ comment for the wrong reason

Events, Jewish-Christian Relations, News and Updates /

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio came under an onslaught of criticism on Tuesday night when he tweeted his reaction to the overcrowded funeral procession for a rabbi from the Satmar Hasidic sect of ultra-Orthodox Jews. The first tweet called the crowd that had in South Williamsburg, in violation of statewide bans on gatherings of 10 or more people, “unacceptable.” But de Blasio’s subsequent message sent Twitter into a spasm of rage because it began, “My message to the Jewish community, and all communities, is this simple: the time for warnings has passed. I have instructed the NYPD to proceed immediately to summons or even arrest those who gather in large groups.”

Global Day of Action on Sukkot: Reconciliation, Not Hate!

Events, Israel, News and Updates /

On Sunday, October 4, people of many diverse backgrounds gathered at King’s Harbor, the Kingwood, Texas location for the Holocaust Garden of Hope, to celebrate Reconciliation Not Hate. We took a stand for Israel and Jewish Life by observing the biblical holiday of Sukkoth, or Feast of Tabernacles. Sukkot (plural of Sukkah, or Tabernacles) were built and decorated (see accompanying pictures), and in the tradition of the holiday we found ways to “dwell” in those booths. One became the stage where music was performed and messages were proclaimed, another covered the registration table and two more were the locations where children and adults participated in the Upstander Stones Project.
The March of Remembrance/March of Life Global Day of Action: “Reconciliation, Not Hate” was conceived by the March of Life organization in Germany and people in 70 cities worldwide gathered as we did throughout the day. March of Life founder Jobst Bittner spoke from the event in Germany.

Passover and Non-Jews

If there are aspects of the Passover Seder from which all people can learn, how much more so is this true for believers in Messiah? After all, our Master Yeshua chose the wine and the matzah of a Passover Seder to represent his body and blood. More than just learning about and celebrating the concept of freedom from oppression and exile, for disciples of Messiah, the seder celebrates Yeshua’s atoning death and resurrection while remaining firmly grounded and centered on God’s deliverance of the Jewish people from Egypt.

Gentiles being drawn to the God of Israel is a significant and beautiful part of this grand plan of redemption as we long for the even greater exodus that will come in the Messianic Era (Jeremiah 16:14-15). Rabbi David Fohrman writes:

The Exodus, as it actually happened in history, did not accomplish everything it might have. There is work yet to do to complete its unrealized vision. The procession that departed Egypt was a shadow of what it might have been. It will be the destiny of Jew and Gentile to one day realize the promise of that journey as it should have taken place: to march side by side and join hands, proclaiming in unison the oneness of a Father they both share.
