What kind of issues are these? Why do you think they should resonate with other Jews? Because you are interested in them? How can they be said to affect the "Jewish" community. If you allowed people to write in their own issues perhaps it would actually reflect Jewish interest. Instead one pompous self important Jewish leader has been substituted by another. Where is the war in Iraq? Foreign policy and support of aid to Africa? Solving the crisis in Darfur? Support of Israel? Confrontation with Iran? The only topic on YOUR list that interests me is education and perhaps medical insurance. But the others? Katrina? There are 7 Billion people on this planet. - While you are at it take some time to consider real Jewish problems. The lack of affordable Jewish education should be the highest priority for the Jewish community. If not, 20 years from now one will turn around and there will be no Jewish community, save for the hareidim in NYC. You are just an example of another Jewish Organization selling the emperor's clothes.
