Much-debated Jewish archive won’t return to Iraq—for now - Cleveland Jewish News: National/World The World Organization of Jews from Arab Countries (WOJAC), which has been involved in the archive issue, prefers a different approach to the Capitol Hill lobbying that has taken place. “I spoke with the Prime Minister’s Office of Iraq and I requested that the prime minister give these artifacts as a gift to the Iraqi Jews in New York whom I represent,” said Heskel Haddad, the president of WOJAC. Although Haddad is happy about the U.S. exhibit’s extension, he believes that it is pride—more than the actual financial worth of the artifacts—that is preventing the Iraqi government from relenting on its demand that the archive return to Iraq. He believes that requesting the archive as a gift to the Jewish community, rather than engaging in negotiations and legislative pressure, would help the Iraqis save face. http://bit.ly/1qZmwcq Source: http://www.clevelandjewishnews.com/news/national_world/article_5ec9d464-e0e2-11e3-92c9-001a4bcf887a.html See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/1qZmwcq+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: https://bitly.com/pages/sidebar -- Peter Kurilecz CRM CA IGP [log in to unmask] Dallas, Texas Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org http://twitter.com/RAINbyte http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RAINbyte/ http://paper.li/RAINbyte/rainbyte http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/archives/ http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/records-management/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/peterakurilecz Information not relevant for my reply has been deleted to reduce the electronic footprint and to save the sanity of digest subscribers To view the list archives go to: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=RECORDS-MANAGEMENT-UK To unsubscribe from this list, send an email to [log in to unmask] with the words UNSUBSCRIBE RECORDS-MANAGEMENT-UK For any technical queries re JISC please email [log in to unmask] For any content based queries, please email [log in to unmask]
