Middle East Jewish State

For at least two thousand years Jews were
dispersed all over the world. Some of them
inevitably assimilated with other nations. Yet
many kept their identity as a nation by staying
loyal to their religious faith and by their desire
to survive as one people preserving common racial
features and cultural traditions. Some European
anti-Jewish tendencies and the suspicious attitude
to Jews in oriental cultures contributed to their
solidarity. For centuries Jews cherished the idea

misnomer. Real Music is the careful arrangement of
organized sounds in the form of notes that then
result in a smooth blend of rhythm, tone, and
pitch that when united, is quite pleasing to the
ear. Rap is not music. The unpleasant-sounding
