Re: [Cz-L] Poetry on the Herrengasse

If the Jewish cemetery was cared for just as the Christian one was there
 would be no need for : CJCRO ,SVIT , and the Suehne .
  And all the altruistic feats brought up by you, to prove how much all
   love us and volunteer ..
    But it was not .
     As you explained there is no racial discrimination in Cz.
       I accept this fact and break my head since, to find an
explanation...

I would like to add to Cornel's list of facts which show that
Czernowitz/Chernivtsi is not currently an Anti-Semitic city.
SVIT Ukraine (certainly not a Jewish organization) has sent volunteers to
work on clearing the Jewish cemetery, every year for the last three years.
Each year a local Ukrainian young woman has joined the volunteers and worked
with them. Only one Jewish young man, one year joined the volunteers and his
non Jewish friend joined with him. Except for two members of this list, no
Jewish person, ever took part in these work-camps, not from abroad and not
from the local population.

The number of people living currently in Czernowitz is about 200 000.
The number of Jews living currently in Czernowitz is about 1500.
Yet one of the council members is Jewish, he obviously was not voted in just
by the Jews.

As far as returning buildings which once were Jewish community buildings, to
the current Jewish community: The German house was not returned to the
Germans, the Polish house was not returned to the Polish community, the
Romanian house - to the Romanian house - to the Romanian community. So it is
not, that we were singled out.

Had it been up to me, I certainly would have preferred to call, what was
once the Judengasse, Shalom Aleichem street, to Jews' street.
