Kirkland and Ellis. This should be fun to watch.

Was just thinking this can be really interesting only thing is I've never found hasidism or orthodox Judaism to translate too well in the media

They don't. Never have.

But when Kirkland and Ellis is the face of chasidim on the media, well, that's a different story.

And when the NYC gov't is asserting meritless claims against chasidim-established businesses while chasidim is being repped by K&E, well, it'll be a good show.

A good show, indeed.

City is going about it all wrong. I would hire a couple of strippers to protest in front of the stores.

The Mishneh Torah is a rare manuscript with text by the Middle Ages Jewish philosopher Moses Maimonides. It is the second of a two-volume manuscript featuring six large illustrations plus 32 smaller images and marginal decorations. The first volume is housed in the Vatican Library.

This always bothers me. Why does the Vatican feel they can hold on to stolen manuscripts. Do they claim legal title to them?

Who did the Vatican steal them from? When did this happen?

I was hoping you'd answer

They stole from the Jews during times of persecution.

yah, I'll give you a hint; they didn't steal them from the moors. And they didn't buy them through sotheby's

That was a pretty long time ago. Maybe the facts have changed since then? Could that be possible?

Not sure what you mean that the facts have changed. you mean maybe they gave it back now, and then bought it back?

Maybe they never stole it in the first place? Is that possible?

Hard to imagine another way, considering the fact that Jews have tended to be pretty attached to their books, expecially in those days when they weren't easy to come by in the first place.

They didn't necessarily steal it directly, it may have been donated or purchased from those who stole it.

So who is the so-called rightful owner now?
