Re: [Cz-L] Interesting link...

What you call "Disney advertisement" is for better or worse the global
cultural-entertainment concept of nowadays aimed at one end - which is
attracting as many people as possible to spend their money. That's why the
center of Czernowitz starts to look more like a Toscana town than a town
built in the mid-European style of the 19th century. If you ask me I would
be very glad if they would include the Jewish cemetery on Zelena str. as a
tourist attraction. The old one is gone for ever, and it's my impression
that for the leaders of the present Jewish community the issue of the
cemetery is not top priority.

Looks like the first part is written by an 8th grader and the second part by
a 10th grader. It also comes up as an ORT project.
Chibur(Khibur) in Hebrew means essay, It could be a competition for best
essay for high school students.
 Since a few days ago there was a link to the Czernowitz Jewish Day (Ort)
school, I would assume that the two links are related. I did read every word
of it. It is very informative about the rich history of Jews in Czernowitz
and the right and liberties provided to them by the Austrian - Hungarian
Government, they just forgot to mention what happened after. I also like the
beginning. It talks to the effect that not that the Jews of Czernowitz were
better than in other areas, it's just that they were given better
opportunities (rights, freedom, to pursue etc..) than in other places. I
don't blame the kids. When I was a teen in Czernowitz I would not dare write
what that all of it ended long time ago and how.
The more I read about Czernowitz today, the less I wish to go back. It
sounds like a Disney advertisement.
