the magazine of finchley progressive synagogue
Hanging Out at Kadimah
From the Editors... Rabbi Rebecca writes (see opposite page) that the High Holy Days are “powerful anchors for us all, irrespective of whether we are regular worshippers or not.” We, Karen and Leah, are very much in the ‘or not’ camp. We both take huge pride and pleasure in our Jewishness, but we are not observant Jews. However, we understand the theological import of the ten days between the holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur and what they mean to Jewish culture and values. How lovely, therefore, to be asked to guestedit the September issue of Shofar. You don’t need us to tell you that September is the Jewish world’s equivalent of January, our very own new year. In the magazine world, the first month of autumn is also the equivalent of January: the September issue is always the biggest and most influential edition, and the one with the most advertising. As this is a synagogue magazine advertising will always be minimal. But editorially we have tried to make this a statement issue: we invited you, the members of Finchley Progressive Synagogue, to consider what is surely the biggest question of the day for the Jewish community: Should Jews abandon the Labour Party? We did not ask, please note, if you think Corbyn’s Labour Party has an antiSemitism problem. If you do not think there is one by this point, then surely nothing can Shofar is always interested in hearing your news and including photos of FPS members, and their families, near and far. We welcome your articles on any relevant topic. Please send these to shofar@fps.org 2

change your mind. But the question of how to respond to the malaise remains. However you vote, you will know that Jews are part of the British Labour Party’s story. To walk away from Her Majesty’s Opposition is therefore a big decision. It is to concede more than 100 years of Jewish history in Britain. You don’t need to be leftist to recognise the significance of this. Accordingly, our question struck a chord with congregants of all political stripes: within minutes of asking for pitches, several had landed in our inbox. In addition, several of you wrote unsolicited pieces. We thank you heartily for them but hope you understand space constraints mean we could only run two articles: one arguing Jews should stay and fight, and another that we should leave. Oh, and a third op-ed from James Levy arguing that the whole problem is his fault. Turn to page 13 for his maverick take on the morass and to pages 11 and 12 for Jonty Leibowitz and Peter Block’s brilliant responses to the question. This is the first in a series of guest-edited Shofars while a permanent replacement is found for CA Cranston who stepped down as editor last month after two-and-a-half years’ sterling service. We hope our successors have as much fun editing future issues as we have had putting this one together. Karen already scribbles for a

From the Rabbi
rabbi rebecca birk
All our Shofar editors have been magnificent, and I am very thankful to them. I am well aware of the demands of the community volunteering: many of you work and are busy throughout the day. The security rota, our mitzvot calendar, all your work is hugely important and greatly valued, but Shofar is a particularly powerful way of reaching people’s minds. Every month it lands in your homes where you, your families and friends can pick it up and see exactly what we achieve and seek to create here at FPS. What better marketing could we have? Our last editor CA Cranston was special for the academic rigour she brought to our pages. Her editorials were informed without being didactic, and she bridged the goings-on at 54 Hutton Grove with the affairs of the wider world brilliantly. Under her watch, and Wika Dorosz’s eagle-subbing eye, Sarah Rosen-Webb’s page Where They Are Now has grown into a Beit Midrash series and Simone Lee’s Youth pages have brought joy and entertainment. The issue you are holding in your hand is the first of what I hope will be a series of guestedited Shofars whilst we seek a permanent replacement for CA Cranston. It has been edited by journalist Karen Glaser and her daughter Leah Pennisi-Glaser. Their edition features FPS news and reports and, of course, information about upcoming High Holy Days, but Karen and Leah have also commissioned op-eds on Labour Party’s anti-Semitism problem. It is a subject that has filled column inches in many publications, so why not Shofar’s too? FPS is, and will always be, politically neutral, and Labour’s anti-Semitism crisis is a conversation that reaches beyond party politics.
the new year
Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are powerful anchors for us all, whether we are regular worshippers or not. They provide an opportunity to dig deeper, to consider the lives we live: the Jewish calendar and the holidays that open it are the greatest of gifts. Selichot (which translates as forgiveness, but which we use to mean penitential prayers) begins this period of reflection, an amuse bouche, if you will. And this year, as last year, we join FRS for an evening of discussion and late-night prayer. Rabbi Howard Cooper and I will lead a session riffing on Samuel Beckett’s famous two words: fail better. Let them be our invitation to the year 5780. I wish you all a meaningful, healthy and strong New Year. Shanah Tovah. (from the editors, cont. from p.2)
living. But for Leah, who by the time you read this will have begun her first year at Edinburgh University, editing Shofar has confirmed her in the view that she wants to write for The Student. Founded by Robert Louis Stephenson in 1887, it is the UK’s oldest student newspaper. Not quite as old as the Jewish Chronicle, for which Karen regularly freelances, but certainly older than Shofar. And like Shofar, entirely politically neutral. 3
From the Chair My beloved 97-year-old uncle is very ill and his poor health has prompted thoughts of bereavement. Within these shores, Jews have adopted the convention of wishing the bereaved long life at a funeral, shiva and yahrzeit. But is this the best way to bring comfort? In an article he wrote for Jewish News in 2014, Rabbi Pete Tobias says it is not. He claims the practice has developed because of our “inability to find anything to say to a bereaved person.” His view is supported by bereaved friends in our congregation who have told me how difficult it was to hear those words. They felt they’d already enjoyed a long life. I understand. For me to wish my 90-year-old aunt a long life when she loses her husband of 67 years would surely be both insensitive and inappropriate. When that
cathy burnstone
time comes, only words from the heart will do. But sometimes uttering heartfelt words can be a struggle too. So rather than say the inadequate, some of us find that the best way to express sympathy is through small, loving gestures such as providing food and other material help. I don’t pretend to have the answers. But death is part of life: we will all suffer bereavement. So we need to have a conversation about how we bid farewell to loved ones.
canine companions
July’s pet service prompted Pat Hinson to pen this verse Dogs in their numbers the pet service with their owners attended Unbelievably they were all well-behaved For hours I’m sure our Rabbi slaved Our animals’ rights in the world by prayers and thoughts were defended: Dogs in kippot but not in tallitot Of our canine and other animal companions we think a lot. The blessing of dogs and rabbits on the bimah was my highlight
You could see both owners and pets were as proud as could be An especially memorable service for me. Occasionally during the service an odd bark or two No snapping or growling did I hear The Adon Olam sung to the tune of How Much is That Doggie in the Window? brought me cheer
With their owners they stood or sat tall
I like the concept of an annual or at least biennial Pet Service: do you?
Not one dog during the proceedings did another maul
Comments please to Shofar would be welcome I’m sure
This scene was a real delight
Make it a tradition that does endure?

Roots Schmoots W
e recently spent a good month rummaging through drawers of stowed-away photographs, letters and articles that had been taken and written decades ago, both here and in Israel. We were looking for things that would help us corroborate memories and reconnect with past times, both wonderful and sad. The trigger for our search was Roots, a Beit Midrash series in which members were invited to talk about their lives in conversation with Sarah Rosen-Webb. We had no idea it would be such a moving experience. Under Sarah’s gentle probing we found ourselves hurtling back to personal and political situations we had not revisited for years. As we looked back, we pondered on the things in our early lives that had led us to become the Liberal Jews we are today. In our youth, we had both been committed members of Habonim. Irris was also heavily influenced by her father’s Bundt socialism, and in 1958 she moved to Habonim House, in Ramat Gan, for training about the movement before settling

on a kibbutz. Sid also made aliyah but settled in Jerusalem where he worked as a psychologist and set up a band. The Golden City String Band which would become loved all over the then young country. At one point in our conversation, Sarah asked us about our decision to adopt two children given that we already had six between us. The truth is that back then it was not unusual to adopt or foster children in need in Israel. In fact, as a mental health services director for Youth Aliya, Sid was involved in finding placements for such children. What we didn’t say during the evening was how generously our birth children shared their home, their parents and their lives when we all welcomed Menny and Hannit into our family. Thank you Adrian and Sarah for this excellent series, and to those of you who came to listen. We think the Roots programme should be rolled out to the Liberal movement, not least because it might attract new members. Photo: Sid Singer playing his banjo in the Golden City String Band

The Labour Question - Three Opinions Four years ago this month since Corbyn’s election and the party’s anti-Semitism crisis goes on and on. Shofar asks if it’s time for Jews to abandon Labour.

why we should go peter block
People talk about Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party, and it’s not difficult to understand why. With him at the helm, Labour is not the political party it was once. Labourites with hard-left views used to be on its fringe. Now Corbyn and his aides are running the show. This is a particular problem for Jews because central to the worldview of the people who now sit in Labour headquarters is the belief that Israel is the unique evil on our planet. This belief goes hand in hand with a vehement anti-capitalism and anti-Americanism. The USA being, of course, a firm ally of the world’s only Jewish country. Jews’ feelings towards Israel vary, of course, but according to a recent poll, 93% of British Jews say it forms some part of their Jewish identity. And the explanation is simple. The ideas of Israel and Zion and Jerusalem are deeply woven into our tradition and culture. Our ancient texts invoke the people of Israel, of Zion and of Jerusalem again and again and again. The inconvenient truth for anti-Zionists is that for Jews there is no clear, bright line between Jews and Israel. The current Labour leadership does nothing to discourage the vitriolic attacks against Israel and all who are associated with it. Accordingly, there is a short step between a culture of extreme anti-Zionism and Jew-hatred. The problem facing Jewish members of the Labour Party is easily stated. One: resign. Two:
remain and try to fight the current malaise. This second choice requires a thick skin and the belief that the poison can be drained. At this juncture, it’s a belief that’s difficult to accept. For it seems to me that Corbyn and his entourage either do not understand the problem, are simply intellectually incapable of understanding left-wing anti-Semitism or, more likely, are sympathetic to the criticisms levelled at Israel and those Jewish members of the Labour Party who bear the brunt of the hatred. So I think it is fair to say that desperately needed radical change will only come with mass resignations from the party: an exodus that is the direct result of reasonable party members deciding that they can no longer be a part of Labour, currently being formally investigated by the Equality and Human Rights Commission over its anti-Jewish racism. The probe makes Labour only the second political party in British history to face a formal racism inquiry. The first? The British National Party. Until the Labour Party regains its sense of fairness and justice, I think British Jews should abandon it. If we don’t, we are helping to put an anti-Semitic leadership into 10 Downing Street. There is no longer any ambiguity about this.

The Labour Question - Three Opinions (cont.) 2 why we should stay - jonty leibowitz To be clear: anti-Semitism is a problem, a moral stain on the Labour Party and its leadership and whether you think Corbyn has been at ‘best’ inept in tackling anti-semitism, or at worst complicit in its rise, the very fact of it is catastrophic. Given this, why stay? Rabbi Tarfon taught us that “It is not your duty to finish the work, but neither are you at liberty to neglect it.” From Abraham Joshua Heschel and the Jews who marched at Selma for Civil Rights, to Clara Lemich and the female Jewish garment workers who fought for labour rights in 1909, Jews have been loud and unapologetic in seeking to bend the moral arc of history towards equality and justice. Today, Rabbi Tarfon’s edict serves us with two timely reminders. Firstly, that we must be the change we want to see: that if we want to rid the Labour Party of anti-Semites, while the heavy lifting must be done by allies outside of the community, we must also play our part, especially when it comes to navigating the tricky weeds of anti-Semitism, anti-Zionism, and Israel. Labour needs Jewish members who are actively willing to educate and instruct party members, such as those in the JLM who are leading this struggle. Without them, the worry is that Labour would fall deeply further into the morass. Secondly, the Labour Party is an essential vehicle in the pursuit of Tikkun Olam and while it might be an uncomfortable truth, we Jews need to play our part in it. I have no umbrage with the Greens or Lib Dems, but the truth remains that there are only two potential governments for the UK: Labour or the Conservatives. This government has deported vulnerable British citizens; refused to take a fair share of migrant
12
children, and used dog-whistle rhetoric against basically every minority. On top of that, 4.5 million Brits live in serious poverty, with children going to school hungry.
Rabbi Tarfon taught us that “It is not your duty to finish the work, but neither are you at liberty to neglect it.” This matters because our current government represents a moral crisis to everyone in Britain, and Jews must not just oppose it, but actively seek to depose it. Labour as they currently stand may have faults, but it still remains the best possible vehicle for achieving a better society in Britain. Odd may it sound, but Labour is on the right side of history on most of the big issues. Clearly, it is not enough for Labour to just be right. For the many of us in the community who cherish both our Judaism and our politics, it is a tragedy that the two are in conflict. We must never forgive those who have caused hurt and pain to our community, and Labour has so much more to do. I understand why many of you will feel like it is time to leave, but to walk away is to admit that the anti-Semites have won. It is to concede a hundred years of leftist Jewish history in Britain. Sadly, it is to impose on Britain many more years of a racist, xenophobic, and cruel Conservative government. Those of us who stay have a solemn duty to make Labour a safe space for those of you who have left. Let us all hope that we don’t let you down.
The Labour Question - Three Opinions (cont.) 3
note to my politically lazy self james levy
The proposition James, the Labour Party’s current malaise is your fault. You are not a member of it, or of any other political party. What it was like before A couple of generations of largely unbroken prosperity and centrist politics have rendered you dull, and politically insensitive. Harsh? Consider a typical script before Corbyn became Leader of the Opposition: “Never mind about political engagement: let’s build a career, make money, raise our children, go on holiday, pursue Zion and spiritual fulfilment. Politics? Forget it. Don’t have time, leave it to others. Member of a political party? What’s the point of that? I vote, don’t I? I believe in the British system. It’s stable, the mother of parliaments. The EU? Not sure how it works.” Power resides in political parties I have benefitted from being a citizen in a liberal democracy, but I have been complacent about this, taking Britain’s institutions for granted and failing to participate adequately in public life. In the 1950s several million people were members of the Conservative party. Several million more were members of the Labour party. Now the sum total of all political party membership in the country is dwarfed by the membership of the National Trust. This makes no sense. This country has one of the most centralised and concentrated points of political power in the world: the Houses of Parliament. And Parliament is sovereign. It might choose to cede power to other institutions, but Parliament makes the laws.
And post-Brexit it might, a few international treaties notwithstanding, have complete sovereignty once again. Members of political parties choose their leaders and their MPs, and thereby influence policy. But if the wise and the sensible and the moderate can’t be bothered to become members of a political party we leave the field open to
I have benefitted from being a citizen in a liberal democracy, but I have been complacent about this, taking Britain’s institutions for granted and failing to participate adequately in public life. those who can be bothered -- the determined and ideologically motivated few. These people exercise disproportionate power. Some 160,000 Conservative die-hards chose Boris Johnson as our PM. The Labour Party’s 500,000-odd members chose Corbyn, an ineffectual radical unsuited for high office. Yet there he is. And he could be our next PM. Time to act The way to stop anti-Semites exercising influence in the Labour Party is to join it. But I have been neither active nor courageous. Labour’s anti-Semitism problem is my fault.

back to school!
Our September term bursts into life for young people at FPS. From our early years activities with Laura Lassman and student rabbi Daisy Bogod, all the way up to our distant-butmuch-loved students. Join us on Saturday 14th September for our university-goers lunch. This is for current students (please share your advice!) and for soon-to-be-students (to soak up said advice!) with a picnic lunch to enjoy. For our youngest members on the first Saturday of every month is Shabbatots – 30 minutes of Shabbat joy, with music, stories and singing for the under 5s. On the third Friday of each month, just before Shabbat ReSouled, we have Family Tea for families with children up to 8 years old: Shabbat tea with games and activities for older children, and toys for the younger ones. Zoe Jacobs jack jackson: bar mitzvah 7 september
My Hebrew name is Peretz Ben Natan Natah, and I go to JCoSS, where I have just begun Year 9. I love reading, building Lego and watching TV and my favourite film is the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Most important, I’m really looking forward to celebrating Bar Mitzvah at FPS!

kayitz
I visited my first death camp this summer: Jasenovac, in Croatia. What I saw and learnt there will stay with me for the rest of my life. I am sure I can say the same for other teenagers who went on LJY Netzer’s Kayitz to Serbia, Austria and Croatia this summer.
The focus of our trip, led by student rabbi Gabriel Webber, was the richness of Jewish life in these countries before the Holocaust, and it is fair to say I learned even more about Jewish life than I have on previous LJY Netzer trips. In Sarajevo, I was particularly struck how the city’s mosque was situated directly next to a church and synagogue. LJY Netzer has been central to my life since I went on my first trip at the age of nine. Next year, I lead on Kadimah, and I can’t wait. Lauren Keiles and Nina Morris-Evans, the brilliant madrichot on this trip, have shown me how it should be done. Ruben Qassim ljy-netzer israel tour
After a tough year of GCSE preparation, I was overjoyed to finally find myself at Heathrow departures lounge ready for what had been promised as the trip of a lifetime. And it was. Spending almost a month in Israel with 42 other 16-year-olds, and our five incredible madrichim was incredible. We toured the whole country learning all about
the different groups that coexist in Israel from the people themselves: Charedim, the Druze community, Ethiopian Jews, the LGBTQ+ community, the Bedouin and Palestinians. I was particularly struck to hear how Charedi women find employment in order to financially support their families. We did not shy away from difficult conversations about Reform Zionism and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and our political education did not stop there: we quizzed the journalist Nathan Jeffay on geopolitics and spoke with Women of the Wall about the Orthodox monopoly on certain aspects of Jewish life in Israel. LJY’s four pillars of tikkun olam, youth empowerment, Liberal Judaism, and Reform Zionism were incorporated into everything we did: put another way, we practised the ideology we discussed. And there were recreational activities aplenty too. Aqua Kef, rafting on the Jordan, beach time, floating in the Dead Sea, and countless water hikes cooled us off from the hot Israeli sun, which reached 43 degrees on some days! And a stand-out experience for me was camel riding in the desert, followed by scaling Masada before sunrise the following morning. We also got the chance to live out iconic LJY experiences including staying at the muchloved Kibbutz Lotan and grabbing Netzer merch at the headquarters of the WUPJ! But perhaps the most incredible part of tour was the strong bonds of friendships we all made, which I know will last a lifetime. Rebekah Treganna 15
