Act Of Chesed
I am working on a book about Chesed (Kindness). I am looking for amazing stories of acts of kindness that you have either personally experienced or know about. I am not looking for stories
that already appear elsewhere. If you really think about it you will be able to come up with
something. Please, I really need your help so if you have something you can let me know so we can speak or you can write it up. Please be in touch.
Looking forward to hearing from you!!!
Deepest Blessings from Israel,

******* INNOCENT: Yoel Zev Acquitted in Year-Long Trial By Yochonon Donn CHIBA, Japan - Yoel Zev Goldstein, the third and final Israeli yeshivah bachur to be tried in Japan on charges of smuggling illegal drugs into the country, was acquitted Monday afternoon (Japanese time) by a three-judge court panel. The verdict capped an extraordinary year-long trial that began in July 2010, and took several unexpected twists - including a replacement of the presiding judge who was considered harsh by international standards. Judge Masanori Hadoko, who replaced Hiroshi Furuto in mid-trial, announced the verdict from his Chiba District courtroom at 1:30 p.m. Yoel Zev's father attended, as did two askanim who had been tirelessly involved, Rabbi Aron Nezri and Rabbi Meilech Bindinger, along with several other concerned people. Mr. Hadoko had allowed the trial to be extended by several months last year in order for the defense to bring additional witnesses and evidence, something Mr. Furuta had made clear he would not permit. In a quirk in Japanese law, immediately after the innocent verdict announcement Yoel Zev was taken into custody by Immigration Police since he overstayed his visa. His attorneys have prepared a document explaining the circumstances of his arrest and he is expected to be released to Israel within a week or two. The prosecutor has 14 days to appeal to the High Court in Tokyo.
THERE IS A WELL KNOWN CONCEPT IN THE JEWISH NEW YEAR: TESHUVAH, TEFILAH AND TZEDAKAH MAAVIRIN AT ROAH HAGIZAYRAH. Translated: Repentance, prayer and Charity ameliorate a harsh decree from heaven. We address the component of Tefilah when we say Tehilim for those who are ill on our Aviva Aryeh, AH Tehilim list. We address the component of Teshuvah, when we reach out to others in positiive way that is Mikadesh Shame Shamayim, that sanctifies G-d's name, and brings unity to our fellow Jews. We repent for Sinat Chinam/baseless hatred that destroyed our temple. We do this as part of our Sarit Marton, AH Ahavas Yisrael Initiative.
