A German Muslim, Sajed Aziz was only sentenced to 3 1/2 yrs. in jail for the stabbing of Rabbi Zalman Gurevitch(left) in the streets of Frankfurt with a 3 inch knife. The reason for the light sentencing was a lack of evidence to support the original attempted manslaughter charge. Aziz claimed it was self-defense but his lawyer will not attempt to appeal the judges ruling. Although the Rabbi claimed Aziz yelled anti-semitic slurs the defense claimed this was not a biased attack.

Barbara Striesand in Germany: Sold Out!
For the longest time Barbara Streisand has been asked by Germany to perform a concert and she always refused. The reason for the refusal was never really given but it was always thought that the holocaust played a role in that decision. She finally gave in this past Saturday and performed to a sold out audience of 18,000. Do you think she made the right decision? Should we be so forgiving yet? How quickly can we forget?

The special German panel ruled against returning this art collection valued between 10 to 50 million dollars. The panel cited a letter from the man's father and a 1960s-era compensation payment as grounds for keeping them in Germany.
