Re: [Cz-L] Are we Rumanians ?

Dear Arthur,

I did not mean to insult you. Not at all.
You are not responsible for the deeds of your friends.
Nor do I think that what your grandmother did,
was in any way wrong. All people have the right
to defend their lives in any way possible.
A Romanian passport and permission to work in Germany,
are not an absolute necessity. All people ought to avoid
perpetuating corrupt practices and we Jews, because of
the accusations leveled against us, ought to behave
more properly than anyone else.
