Between the 1860s and the early 1920s, more than two million Jews moved from Eastern Europe to the United States while smaller groups moved to other destinations, such as Western Europe, Palestine, and South Africa. During and after the First World War hundreds of thousands of Jews were permanently displaced across Eastern Europe. Migration restrictions that were imposed after 1914, especially in the United States, prevented most from reaching safe havens, and an unknown but substantial number of Jews perished during the Holocaust-as they had been displaced in Eastern Europe years before they were deported to ghettos and killing sites. Even after the Holocaust, tens of thousands of Jewish survivors were stranded in permanent transit for many years.Between Borders: The Great Jewish Migration from Eastern Europe tells and contextualizes the stories of these Jewish migrants and refugees before and after the First World War. It explains how immigration laws in countries such as the United States influenced migration routes around the world. Using memoirs, letters, and accounts by investigative journalists and Jewish aid workers, Tobias Brinkmann sheds light on the experiences of individual migrants, some of whom laid the foundation for migration and refugee studies as a field of scholarship, even coining terms such as "displaced person," and contributing to its legal definition at the 1951 United Nations Refugee Convention. The stories of these migrants and refugees were used to propose a new future for the United States, reimagining it as a pluralistic society-one comprised of immigrants.

Nolan talks to BBC NI crime and justice correspondent Julian O'Neill.

Gerry Adams sued the BBC over a documentary and online article which included allegations that he ordered the murder of a former Sinn Féin official who'd admitted spying for British intelligence. The jury at the High Court in Dublin ruled that he was defamed. Also: The government sells its last stake in the bank formerly known as RBS, 17 years after it was partly nationalised during the financial crisis. And Taylor Swift wins back the music rights to her original recordings.

"Last week we spoke of Dockery Farms which the birthplace of The Blues. As all music does it was expanded and taken to different places by the musicians who played it. Here is a run down and description of the most popular forms of The Blues."

"Back in March of 1979 the movie The China Syndrome came out. Weeks later the Three Mile Island nuclear disaster occurred. This lead to musicians setting up MUSE and holding the NO Nukes concerts, albums and film. We have the entire story including the first time Bruce Springsteen was recorded live."

"Dockery Farms is said to be the place where the Delta Blues began. That is a bold statement but once you hear the research I have gathered it will be hard to argue. Robert Johnson did not sell his soul for great musical talent. He went to Dockery Farms which is still open today and welcoming visitors."

Welcome to Daily Bitachon. Today we have a powerful lesson from one of the pesukim in Parashat Ki Tavo : וַנִּצְעַק אֶל־יְיָ אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹתֵינוּ Vanitzak el Hashem Elokei Avoteinu / And we cried out to Hashem, the God of our fathers . The Baal Hagada cites Shemot 2:23, where it says the Jewish people groaned because of the workload: וַיִּזְעָ֑קוּ וַתַּ֧עַל שַׁוְעָתָ֛ם אֶל־הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים מִן־הָעֲבֹדָֽה׃ Vayizaku / (same root as the word vanitzak ) And they cried out Vataal shavatam / Their outcry went up Elokim to God, Min ha'avoda/Because of the work. There are two points to make note of. Firstly, there is no mention of prayer, just crying out . Groaning , outcry , these are terms that are not necessarily referring to prayer. Secondly, the stress is on because of the work. The Ramban on this pasuk says that they were not really fit to be answered. They were answered, in his words, Mipnei hatzaaka / Because of the outcry. Libel tefilatam b'rachamim. Their prayers were accepted with mercy. Yes, they prayed, he says, but prayer alone was not enough. What made it happen was the tzaaka / the outcry . Rabbenu Bachya adds that the reason why the words Min ha'avoda are stressed twice is to teach us a lesson: There is no more complete prayer than a prayer Mitoch hatzara vehadochak / From extreme difficulty and oppression, Sheyoter mekubelet/It is more accepted and goes up to Hashem. Interestingly, the Ramban, in Mishpatim ( Shemot 22:20), when it talks about being nice to the convert, says, The soul of the convert is humble. He groans and cries out constantly for Hashem's mercy , that He should have mercy on him. And Hashem has mercy on him because he constantly cries out, So too, Hashem had mercy on the Jewish people when they groaned, as it says in our pasuk . Not in in their merit; rather Hashem had mercy on them because of the avoda. What is it about this Tzaaka/Crying out, groaning that makes our prayers be answered? Rav Yitzchak Isaac Chaver , in his Haggadah Yad Mitzrayim, explains based on a Gemara that says anacha shoveret chatzi gufo shel adam / A groan breaks a person's body. Groaning causes a person to become humble, and because he's humbled, he is close to Hashem and his prayers are answered. As the pasuk says, Karov Hashem l'nishberei lev / Hashem is close to the brokenhearted. This is an unbelievable concept, that we've mentioned more than once- that the purpose of Galut Mitzrayim was to bring them to humility, to humble them, like we said in the pasuk, Vaya'anun u/ And he pained them. The root of the word ya'anunu / pain is anava . A pained man is humble. So we're learning an unbelievable concept here- vanitzak is not just to cry out and scream, it's it just that there's a power to screaming . It's not about the scream. A very arrogant person could say, " Okay, I'm going to scream now because I'll get what I want by screaming." The screaming that causes God to answer us is the screaming that comes from humility, that comes from brokenness, from realizing I'm not in control, I have a broken heart, I'm stuck. Help me, I don't know what to do. That feeling of humility, that outcry of humility is what causes vataal shavatam their outcry went up to Hashem min ha'avoda from the work. They were broken. The work had done its job. The job of the avoda was to break them. That's the term used, " I'm going to break you." Of course, Hashem is not doing it in a angry, mean way, but He needs our ego and arrogance to be broken, so we realize that we're not in charge, we can't do anything, and we don't know what to do- the outcry of, Hashem , I don't know what to do. I'm stuck, I just don't know how to get out of this quagmire of mud, or quicksand. It's like the current situation in Gaza. If some of the people making the decisions would say, I don't know what to do, I'm stuck. There's no way out of this, and if we'd all collectively feel that vayeianchu /that groan , vanitzak that outcry , shavatam min ha'avoda , then, vataal shavatam the outcry goes up- then the next pasuk, which we'll see tomorrow, is vayishma Hashem et koleinu . And Hashem heard our voices

The four essential elements of common law defamation are: (1) a defamatory statement, (2) the statement was "of or concerning" the plaintiff, (3) the statement was published to a third party, and (4) the plaintiff suffered damages as a result.Libel is defamation in written or other tangible form and is generally actionable without proof of special damages. Slander is spoken defamation and typically requires proof of special damages unless it falls under the category of slander per se.Actual malice is defined as knowledge that a statement was false or reckless disregard for whether it was true or false. This high standard applies to public officials and public figures in defamation claims due to First Amendment considerations.Intrusion upon seclusion occurs when a defendant intentionally intrudes upon the solitude, seclusion, or private affairs of another in a manner that would be highly offensive to a reasonable person. An example is unauthorized wiretapping of a private phone line.The key element in appropriation of name or likeness is the defendant's use of the plaintiff's name, image, or identity for a commercial purpose without the plaintiff's consent, thereby exploiting the economic value of their identity.To establish intentional interference with contractual relations, a plaintiff must show: (1) a valid contract, (2) the defendant's knowledge of the contract, (3) the defendant's intentional acts to induce a breach or interfere with the contract, (4) an actual breach or disruption, and (5) resulting damages."Scope of employment" refers to activities that an employee is hired to perform, occur substantially within the authorized time and space limits of their job, and are motivated, at least in part, by a purpose to serve the employer.One exception to the rule that employers are not liable for independent contractors' torts is when the activity involved is inherently dangerous, meaning it poses a significant risk of harm that cannot be eliminated by reasonable care.The single publication rule states that all copies of a publication are treated as a single publication for the purposes of a defamation action, limiting the number of lawsuits that can arise from widespread dissemination of the same defamatory material.When a private individual sues for defamation involving a matter of public concern, they must generally show at least negligence on the part of the defendant. To recover presumed or punitive damages, they typically must demonstrate actual malice.
