Dear Editor:

Does anyone want to pay my credit card bill? No, I’m just kidding. After all, I’m not the ambassador to Greece, and I don’t have a $100,000 credit card bill. Instead, would anyone like to pay my heating bill? I shudder to think what that will be, and no, that $90 I got from President Trump won’t make a dent in the bill.

Dear Editor:

 QJL readers are urged to show Jewish community concern and solidarity on Monday, October 19, at the court hearing of antisemite Dawood Faisal, whose utterly reckless driving crashed into two cars, the second of which careened out of control, killing Cara Trager, a beloved member of the Jewish community. Days earlier, he’d vandalized the outside of Bagels & Co. on Union Turnpike, which proudly flies American and Israeli flags.

Restore Dr. Praeger’s Pareve Certification

Dear Editor:

As a longtime customer who has purchased, enjoyed, and recommended Dr. Praeger’s veggie burgers for many years, I was dismayed to discover that the products have apparently changed their kosher certification from pareve to dairy. After noticing the change on recent packaging, I confirmed it with the Orthodox Union (OU).

Dear Editor:

Here is an astounding story of hashgachah pratis involving Yidden in connection with the recent tragedy in Nepal. We might wonder: What connection could there possibly be with Yidden? I’ve barely ever heard of the country of Nepal!

Dear Editor:

 Kol hakavod to QJL readers who showed deep Jewish community concern by attending the Queens Supreme Criminal Court hearing on October 19 for antisemite Dawood Faisal. In May, he twice vandalized the outside of kosher café Bagels & Co., which proudly flies the American and Israeli flags. Then, days later, he drove so recklessly that the second car he crashed into careened into pedestrian Cara Trager, killing her. Cara and her husband, Michael, who was injured, are beloved members of the local Jewish community.
