I didn’t think that the Grace after meals was so long as all that. It has been the same for hundreds of years as far as I am aware, and even from the beginning in Torah days , some sort of prayer was recited.
It shouldn’t by mid 19th cent, have taken more than 5-10 mins and has some lovely melodies included.
If you have different info please let us know.
By the way, British Royalty was especially trained to be VERY Patient and their daily routine often consisted of listening, with apparent pleasure to Looong dreary speeches of before and after prominent dinners.
Politicians are the most long winded “speakers” in the world. So it’s part of the Royal Family’s JOB to listen with “deep interest”.
Of course those who praised Victoria and Albert were sycophantic followers and deeply gratified, especially the Jewish lot, at the apparent courtesy and respect shown to a “mere” Jew.
You can’t believe half of what you read, especially about Royalty. Besides The Royal couple were a pair of lovebirds at that particular era. not all that long married, and Victoria was crazy about “my Albert” .
It didn’t prevent her from condemning to eternal disgrace and to drive to suicide a completely innocent Lady in Waiting of her mother’s, who’s internal tumor caused Victoria to believe she was pregnant although not wed.
It is still the very same now as was then.
Laura, Peloni, etc. The following:
https://abcnews.go.com/US/pakistani-national-charged-alleged-plot-assassinate-donald-trump/story?id=112617075
may be connected with the arrest of that apparently haples Chinese national, for “trespassing” at Mar a Lago. It now comes out that a Pakistani national WAS involved in a plot against the President (Trump); and Pakistan is joined, if not at the hip, then at least at the moneybelt, with China. More likely, the Secret Service and its fellow alphabet security agencies were in panic mode over their bad PR lately, and acting in a jerky fashion.

Sebastien,
I’m not overtinting, just playing with your pun. Fifty years ago, I read an English translation of the Tao, called “The Tao” in English, which, of course, was pronounced “Dow”. What I was saying, was that I do not use the Tao to guide me with my investments. Schtimft es? (Yiddish “farshteyn?”)
BTW — those people who are kidding themselves… Do they laugh at their own kidding?
SEBASTIEN ZORN…!! It’s YOU who don’t understand the complete irrelevance of Lord Sherriffs -Shmerriffs of London-Blunden or anywhere.
Saloman was very rich and sprayed money all around, and bought his office so they accommodated him. I have read biographies about those “early” Jews who were “elected” to minor offices, beginning the Jewish “emancipation” from “legal” disabilities.
There “wonderful” events changed not a single whit of the virulent Jew hate that pervaded England since the days when Jews were thePROPERTY of the King.. It never prevented them from Slaughter.
A herem was placed on England, never officially lifted, and from 1290 to 1633-nearly 300 years no Jew was allowed to stay alive in England.
You may-or not know that the remains of the Jews suicided at York Castle were discovered down an abandoned well a few years ago, as were a couple of similar groups.
Jews began to filter back during Cromwell’s time although never officially allowed. As the Meeting of the Directorate, 4 voted ‘no’ and Cromwell voted “yes”:. To this very day there has never been a rescinding of the “No Jews allowed” Law of England. It was just quietly allowed to be ignored..
Why??
Because England’s total prosperity depended on the export of wool, and Flanders w’as the best area, and had been for hundreds of years. The main importing merchants had become, by that time, JEWS, so it was “ignored” when they began to filter back.
First, it was that Jewish merchants stayed an occasional night in their Thames Warehouses, and over the years quietly brought their families with them.
You can’t tell me a single thing about the History of Jews in
England.
I don’t know why YOU think that YOU have discovered something wonderful, that Jews were, only many years after slavery had been abolished and ruthlessly put down by the English Navy and a variety of “Acts of Parliament”, that Multi-wealthy Jews were able to buy themselves certain prominent positions. And there were one or two before Saloman, like Montifiore, for instance who was a GENUINE philanthropist and gave generously to all and sundry deserving causes.
They still buy their lordships, to this very day, but it has spread to the Goyim also.
I can laugh at something funny that you ignore, but not at your Half-cracked-pseudo mod or outlandish, self styled “humour”. Who made you the arbiter of what humour is or is not.. It’s a matter of personal taste, and your putrid attempts taste foul. “Buddhist humour”…And we are supposed to appreciate a recently returning druggie “Jew” who has not yet fully realised his lack of Yiddishkeit….Pshaw…..Bugger off please. I ask you politely.
And shut the hell up and leave me alone.
If you want to “discover” well known (except to you) facts, and crow about them, then hop right back onto your dunghill and crow away…
But Leave me alone…….
Edgar and SebastienThe first Jewish Lord Mayor of London was Sir Moses Montefifiore. Elected in 1834. Not ;long after the act to grant citizenship and eligibility to Jewish and Catholic residents of Britain was passed in 1830. Oueen Victoria and her husband Albert invited themselves to have dinner at the Montefiore’s house to to join him in celebrating his election. This self-invitation by Royalty was considered a great honor for any British ‘subject” at the time.
Individuals who attended the dinner, I presume relatives of the Montefiore’s) complimented the royal couple for sitting patiently through the long, full-length traditional Jewish grace that Montefiore recited after dinner. Even while some of the other guests squirmed in their seats. All those who attended and left descriptions in their diary wrote that the royal couple displayed complete courtesy and goodwill to the Montefiore family throughout dinner, and said nothing that could be interpreted as a critism of Jews or Judaism.
@Michael Nobody does. You’re thinking of
the I Ching. It was just a bad pun and then I got sentimental. Don’t overthink.
It’s just an excerpt from a Jewish Buddhist satirical humor site, very funny, something Edgar knows nothing about, funny that is, and apparently you as well. Whoever said laughter was universal was kidding themselves.

@Edgar
No it’s you who don’t. You thought the article was nonsense because you misread and you thought that one had to be admitted to the
parliament to be lord sheriff. You are normally a stickler for
history except when you come up with one of your unverifiable anecdotes or rest on tge laurels of having read LOTS of books indiscriminately.
Sebastien, I’ve read the Tao, but I’ve never used it as an investment tool.
SEB-
I’m not concerned nor ever was about who was 1st Jewish Lord Mayor of London. ALl this crap is past, and almost forgotten except when dragged out by people like you. They are not important.
I NEVERB Mentioned “Lord Mayor”.
I said that Rothschild was only an MPbeginning 1858. The Famine was over several years before that..
You show NO appreciation for the real facts of the issue.
No matter, I care not.
Harris picks Minnesota Gov. Tim Waltz as her running mate.
Stocks are basically speculative papers. The Americans established a Las Vegas replica at Wall Street. Gold, Silver. Land. Diamonds. Water sources. Those are solid holdings.
I own several large corporations stock smal lots.
Boeing.is not one of them.
@Edgar Article said, “would become” not “was” first Jewish Lord Mayor of London. I just looked it up:

(Parody of Taoist classic the Tao Te Ching
“Chapter One
“Tao Te Ching” by Lao Tzu* 6th century B.C.E. Famous foundational text by founder of Taoism and influence on Zen as well as Chinese and East Asian culture, generally. )
“Tao (The Way) “that can be spoken of is not the Constant Tao’ The name that can be named is not a Constant Name. Nameless, is the origin of Heaven and Earth;
The named is the Mother of all things.
Thus, the constant void enables one to observe the true essence. The constant being enables one to see the outward manifestations. These two come paired from the same origin.
But when the essence is manifested,
It has a different name.
This same origin is called “The Profound Mystery.”
As profound the mystery as It can be,
It is the Gate to the essence of all life.”)

Actually, that does sound very Jewish.
My maternal grandfather was a lawyer who lost everything but his (paid for) home in the crash of 1929, never had the confidence to go into business for himself again, and worked for The NY Board of Transit, now the NY Metropolitan Transit Authority for the remainder of his working life until he was forced to retire at 65 in the ’50s.
Whenever we drove past the George Washington Bridge on the way out of the city when I was little, we’d exclaim, “There’s our bridge,” because he had drawn up the contracts for it to be built, my mother had said.
ADAM-
Yeswe are selling slowly and selectively keeping in mind that the market is still much higher than it was in Jan. I refer mainly to The TSX, although we also have items with NASDAQ and DOW.
The TSX is slightly down today but our holdings have gone up a few points against the trend. Temporarily likely.
If more war threatens then there are some opportunities there…MAYBE, but uncertain, as wars can end after a few salutory encounters.
Sorry, Edgar, I missed your reply. I have read it now. Wise advice. I think it is time to sell most stocks and move as many of one’s assets as possible into cash and/or commodities, especially gold and silver. Also, perhaps copper. At any rate that is my badly and inadequately informed opinion.
@Laura
The encrypted contacts does not in any way explain away the role played by the Secret Service in providing the shooter with access to the venue and his intended target while carrying an obvious assault rifle on a roof just a 150yrds from President Trump, who has been subjected to every form of malicious skullduggery imaginable by the very people who actually control the Secret Service. And again, it would not be China pulling those strings as much as it might suit the interests of some to suggest that China is responsible for this attack. In truth, China has enough for which to answer without us assuming their involvement in things which they could have but a very small role in effecting any success, such as the assassination attempt on Trump.
The shooter had encrypted contacts from overseas.
ADAM-
You posted asking if anyone was checking the DOW as it was sliding badly and perhaps on the verge of collapse.
I responded yet you showed no more interest in it.

@Laura
Any sort of crockery will suffice.
@Laura
That is a big ‘if’, so let’s wait for some form of confirmation beyond the speculation include in this report to decide that it is
In fact, all things currently point to the US govt being behind the attack on Pres. Trump, not China, unless you can explain how China is responsible for the intentional failures of the Secret Service’s due diligence in protecting President Trump while he has been left with both a minimal and inept security detail, which lacked any sniper protection, that is until the very day that their was conveniently a need to shoot a potential patsy after attempting to kill Trump. Personally, I would argue that China Joe, not China would be the more likely source of influence over the staged ineptitude of the Secret Service, but that is just me.

I hope the readers notice that this man is now in danger for his own life, from CCP hit squads. He wanted Trump to get the documents, not the Biden-Harris Secret Service.

Yes we are watching it. Don’t like it. I think it’s needed to sell all and buy back later. or selling short.

BRITAIN’S UNIPARTY JAILS ALL OPPOSITION
The persecution of the Climate struggle must not now be seen in isolation. There is another struggle in England. The Tories are out, Labour is in but NO CHANGE. The persecution by the UNIPARTY STATE is stepped up. Against EDL + CLIMATE. Both by UK’s UNIPARTY. LABOUR+TORIES united
The EDL leader Tommy Robinson made a long and well produced video in it he proved media like Piers Morgan lie through their teeth. And the judges back the LIES NARRATIVE and plan to jail Tommy Robinson. Robinson is now a FUGITIVE FROM THE UNIPARTY. I plan to describe that video.

I don’t know if this is the right place to post this. But have any of our business people who subscribe to or work for this channel noticed that the stock market seems to be crashing over th epast few days. It is very down today, Friday August 2, and this continues over the last few days. Is this the beginning of the recession that the stock market mavens have been predicting since the beginning of 2023? Or for some of them, such as Peter Schiff, for many years before that? Bear, I believe you are a businessman with many years experience and investments in the United States. What do you think?
This is an honest, genuine question, not a rhetorical one. I really want to know what our business mavens think. I have some very small market positions and commodity holdings, chiefly gold, that could conceivably be affected by the downturn. But these are not significant for myfinancial well-being. I am mainly just interested in the world economy as an intellectual interest of mine for many years.
Of course I am interested in how a serious economic downturn in America and worldwide willimpact israel. Any of your opinions on this question will also be welcomed. Thanks everyone, Adam.
The land that God of our fathers of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob gave to Israel is far greater than the sliver we see today.
Hi, Adam
Thank you for allowing that I might have been “charitable”. As for the “LA confidential” comment, I’m afraid I don’t know what you’re talking about — we unplugged from “popular” media eight years ago.
Have you been following Alex Jones? I’m watching the current program — which includes a clandestine poll of illegal aliens in Georgia. Some statistics obtained real time, right before our eyes, is that 9-14% of voters in Georgia and Texas are these illegals. This is first-hand info, straight from their mouths. That’s enough voters to throw the whole election for Harris.
https://www.brighteon.com/a641336f-a050-4394-9759-f8e95e20e268
Does “LA Confidential” talk about these things?
@Michael S. You are being a bit of a wiseguy here. But comparing the FBI, Secret Service etc. “investigators” to the Keystone Cops is charitable. A better analogy to popular fiction might be to the corrupt police captain in “LA confidential.”
@Thanks, Peloni, for your kind words. As I descend into the veil of years, I increasingly feel the need for praise from my friends. Because I can rarely think of anything nice to say to myself about myself.

Your class and background dragging up shows how impeccably crude, vulgar and cat/pig-stink you are. ‘How did you ever get anyone to marry you-if you did- as we only have YOUR word, which as all can see, is not even worth the piece of dog dirt you mention so politely.

God gets the last laugh.
“Many on social media linked the blackout in Paris with the controversial Olympic Opening Ceremony, which appeared to mock the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with a woke drag queen interpolation of the Biblical event.
“Responding to the image of the Basilica shining out of the darkness on Saturday, Bishop Emeritus of Tyler Joseph Strickland commented: “The irony of an electrical power outage in Paris in the wake of the blasphemous [and] debauched opening ceremonies of the Olympics should be noted.

Edgar, you piece of sh-t, you have a way of making Judaism look like a great bowl of puke. Your hasbara could use considerable improvement.

BTW, I notice that you immediately identified with the “endemic bad manners” comment. How did you ever guess?
SEB-
O.K. Thanks. Sounds more than simple to do. Just the terms were unfamiliar.
You didn’t tell me which words I use of which I don’t know the meanings.
I’m interested to know the extent of my ignorance?
Abd, for heaven’s sake what is an SBNR???
@Edgar You said, “No idea what an SBNR is, never heard of it.” As to how to google a word, I said, “Just type the word in your address bar and hit enter. It will find any relevant dictionaries, all of which have been uploaded. No cost.” you can open another tab in your browser so as not to lose your place. The address bar is the space at top with the web address. Don’t get angry at me for stating the obvious because I don’t
know what’s obvious to you.
MICHAEL
Yes you DO have some unusual friends-if they are really friends.
If “Mark”, and obviously had had a doctor’s prognosis. died 2 days after arranging for his funeral he was not still ‘Very much alive”. He was in the toils of extremis, poor fellow. I can be corrected here.
And why point up your “nobility” to blazon that out of “respect” you submit a false name. This is commonplace. Many including myself have USER names. As do Sebastien, Adam, Peloni and likely a majority of others.
Our “bad manners” are almost certainly spurred on by the unmitigated tripe you post frequently, your pseudo-miracle “religion” etc.
And how does Seb’s story of his means of observing Yahrzeit , remind you of such a prosaic event as your friend Mark’s was. I fail to see why it impressed you so much. Of course you’re clever and I’m not….
I arranged my own demise needs many years ago already, and never changed them a whit. They still apply….
And I’m not advertising it on this site. I mentioned it once some years ago merely as a point of possible interest as I was sure I was the only with such arrangements.
No one was interested enough to comment. I didn’t mind, as many of our members are mostly concerned in earning “brownie points”.. posting “news” they got from news outlets that everyone has read and heard already, and “scratching each other’s backs” so to speak.
T.G. That now and then, and in these perilous times, more frequently lately, some really interesting and relevant items, due to real deep digging, are posted by a few dedicated researchers. Even those opposing one another, are responding to their own deep research
Still no matter what we know or dig up, it means zero except vicariously, since we can do nothing about it, and the experts are in charge , who know much more and make things happen
SEB-
Which words do I use that in YOUR opinion I don’t know the meaning of??
I believe that every word I use is in it’s correct position and expressed my meaning correctly. Including secondary menings.
And , admitting my ignorance, how do you “google” anything.??
@Sebastian, sorry if I got my wires crossed. Admittedly, I don’t invest enough time to follow every story, but sometimes the nonsense I read gives me the feeling I need to respond in the off-chance that I can help someone see a little light. Your feedback is welcome.
Hi, Seb
Your “jahrzeit” news brought to mind a curious incident involving some friends of mine, one of which arranged for his own memorial service while he was very much alive. Because of the endemic bad manners by some on this site, I will respect those friends by using false identities:
“Mark” is an old friend from long ago, who suffered from both a heart condition and the loss of speech. Through hoarse whispers and gestures, he told my musician friend, “Carl”, to play for a special gathering at a church that Saturday. Carl was to be otherwise engaged that day; but Mark was insistant. When he arrived to lead the service and play, Carl realized that none of the other invited people had any idea what the event was about, nor were any of them aware that the “guest of honor”, Mark, had died suddenly of a heart attack, just two days before. In effect, Mark had arranged his own funeral! That was a very unusual experience for all involved; but then, I have some rather unusual friends.
@Edgar Do you have some sort of aversion to googling words you don’t know? The internet has made dictionaries obsolete. That’s why you can’t even give them away. Just type the word in your address bar and hit enter. It will find any relevant dictionaries, all of which have been uploaded. No cost. Is that so hard?
SEB
No idea what an SBNR is, never heard of it. I was not suggesting that you change your practice. Far from it. Not my concern. Was just pointing out a Jewish fact. It goes by the Hebrew date nwhich varies widely.
I’m sure you know this anyway.
Sorry about not being Korean. I tried hard but my eyes just won’t slant.
