An Emotional Email Connecting
JLTV With Transylvania
Upon a recent visit to Romania, I ventured to the province of Transylvania to see the legendary Dracula's Castle. Although Transylvania was once home to a large Jewish community and seat of learning (the Satmar Rebbe and Elie Wiesel both hail from there) the current Jewish population is extremely small. Unfortunately there may be more vampires than Jews in Transylvania nowadays. However, those that are still there, those that are not Jewish but supporters of Israel and the Jewish people, and those who are visiting there, like myself, are able to watch Jewish Life TV on AKTA cable satellite service in Transylvania. It was incredible watching television portraying the Jewish people positively in a country where Jews suffered so much during World War II at the same time I gazed upon Dracula's Castle from my hotel window. If you don't believe in miracles still happening nowadays, JLTV may change you mind, as it did mine.
