Helaine's Post-- Apology's to all

[Guest guest]

If Helaine or whatever her name is, isn't gone from this list, I am out of

here. The purpose of this is list is????? What is it???? And she posts this?

And she is harboring these feelings all along.

I will not stand for racist, anti-semantic remarks. The world is full of

hate already and this is supposed to be a DE-STRESS list?

We don't need someone to spread venom anymore that it is.

I am part Jewish on my mother's side and I take great insult to her

comments. We lost relatives in Holocaust. I am appalled at her post.

Now I am glad I know what kind of person she is.

I don't give a darn who she boycotts but I am sorry I am I was on the same

list as her.

And Helaine or Helene or whatever, trust me, the state of Israel and all

their exquisite intelligence, you won't be missed by engaged financially in

their commerce.

Let me know if she is gone because if she isn't--I will be.
