S pring is almost upon us at long last and with it comes new
growth. New at KLS is the first of a series of discussions of
Liberal Jewish attitudes to some important topics and these will
follow the third Friday Night service of the month (page 6).
The arrival of spring also means Pesach is just around the corner.
At this month’s Shabbat Olam service we will be sharing each
other’s Pesach traditions (page 6). Don’t forget to book your
place at our communal seder—the organisers need to know
numbers now so that there will be enough food!

Dear KLS member
T his is my 27th Word from the
Chair. My words are
Management (and leadership)
Magic, Mood, Matilda and
Marketors. “The five Ms.”
Management (and
leadership)
There’s a lot written on
management and leadership. Here
are a few thoughts on their
application to synagogues.
Everyone is a “manager”, even if
they don’t have their own staff. At
the very least they need to manage
themselves and their own tasks. In
an organisation like KLS, that has a
full range of functions and many
religious, outreach, social and
educational events, people carry a
lot of responsibility.
That’s obviously true of the Rabbi
as spiritual leader and with
involvement in so many other
things. But it is also true for the co-
ordinator at the front of house and
bookkeeper at the back of house,
our other staff and volunteers.
Leadership is about blending “hard
and soft power”. Telling and selling.
Paying and persuading. Debating
and deciding. If you spend too
much time debating and never
trying things out, you become a
N.A.T.O.—a No Action Talk
Organisation. (Kodak did little to
face digital competition.) If you
spend too much time deciding and
never reflecting or consulting, you
become a F.A.R.O.—a Fire Aim
Ready Organisation. (The banks
that plunged into sub prime debt.)
Leadership is about seeing both the
detail and the bigger picture. You
need the detail for good execution,
when contracts, plans and projects
are important. You need to see the
bigger picture for strategy, when
values and aims are important.
Finally, leadership style needs to
adapt to the situation. One of the
reasons so many hero leaders are
now zeros was that they couldn’t
change their style when situations
required it.
Magic
I was at the Magic Circle recently
with friends. They provide a close
up magic show, talk on the history
of magic, stage show and
refreshments at their headquarters
near Euston
Station. It’s a
great
evening out.
It’s not
heavily
promoted.
Nigel Jackson originally told me
about the show. I am always
amazed at just how seemingly
effortlessly I can be fooled by
magic. Perhaps I am cynical but it’s
a reminder not to take things at
face value.
Mood
Hopefully we are emerging at long
last from the coldness, wetness and
darkness of winter. And also the
darkness of mood. At the beginning
of this year so many people
complained to me about “being
down”. The weather, the recession,
financial pressures, work pressures,
transport and life generally all
seemed to play a part.
Sometimes small things seem
bigger. The driver in a rush who
cuts you up. The buses that are
cancelled. The elderly parents with
health problems. The children who
aren’t coping. And so on. I have no
simple answer to all this. But KLS
can help members through:
• The pastoral care role of the
Rabbi
• Keep In Touch run by Jenny
Osorio
• Fellowship and social events
• Helping others who are worse off
through Outreach.

WORD FROM THE CHAIR
The Five Ms
VOLUME 4, ISSUE 3, MARCH 2013 PAGE 3
WORD FROM THE CHAIR
��continued from page 2
Matilda
My family saw Matilda at the
theatre to celebrate my twins’
birthday. It was good, but not
great, but with incredible
performances from children. But
the sound quality was poor. I don’t
expect to hear everything as I have
a big hearing loss; but even my
children struggled.
On reflection, I am not going to
see Great Expectations, because I
am bound to be disappointed.
Marketors
I am a member of the Marketors
Livery Company for eminent
marketing people (they let me in
by mistake). Each year a new
Master (equivalent to the Chair) is
appointed at a big dinner. This
year the Master Elect dramatically
resigned in the course of his
speech. It turns out that there are
big conflicts.
It’s a reminder that organisations
(and people) are often like
icebergs; you only see what’s on
the surface.
I liked
� “We are the revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes.”
From Matilda
� Sarah Silverman, on the
miracle of everyone starting life as
a sperm.
“I can’t believe I was ever that
thin.” (A bit sad really?)
� A well know Jewish pub called
“Kosher Horses”
(Think about it.)
� Question: What do you put on
your beef burger? Answer: A fiver
each way.
And finally
� “This Day Is The Day”
Joanna Lumley
� “If Africa was full of
labradoodles dying of aids we’d
take care of it in a day.”
(I don’t know who said this but I
suspect it’s true .)
Mike Barnato

Word.

WRESTLING WITH ISRAEL
M any of you may have read of
the successful six week
evening course at KLS that ended in
the middle of December entitled,
“Wrestling with Israel—Wrestling
with Ourselves.”
It was very well attended with an
average of about thirty people each
week. We had the advantage of
excellent outside speakers for five
out of six of the sessions. They
brought a new perspective and
focus to the highly complex issues
that confront Israel in its dealings
with the Palestinians.
We planned the series carefully to
try to include speakers and topics
which reflected the different views
about Israel within our community,
to learn to discuss the topics from a
more informed position and to
listen to each other and respect our
differences.
A Liberal Jewish obligation
On the issue of the importance of
Israel to Liberal Jews, Steven Jaffe
quoted Liberal Judaism’s chairman,
Lucian Hudson, who has
encouraged us all, “…to relate with
the situation at a human and
national level by keeping well
informed about Israel….”
On the same topic, our Rabbi
Charley Baginsky, said in her Yom
Kippur address in 2011
“I am going to stand up and let
people know the different sides of
Israel … I will understand my
Zionism as, in part, helping Israel be
the best she can be. That is my
responsibility and I believe that it is
yours too.”
Understanding different
views
In the last session, which you can
read about in a review of the whole
course in the next KNQ, we tried
with the help of our speakers,
Steven Jaffe (Board of Deputies)
and Luke Akehurst (We Believe in
Israel), to penetrate and
understand the purposes behind
some of the propaganda that
inevitably surrounds any discussion
of the Jewish State.
“Where to next?” was the question
we posed to the speakers.
continued on page 5 ��
Judy Thwaites explains what we all can do to participate and contribute to a more balanced debate about
Israel and Palestine drawing on the experiences and suggestions of experts who spoke at KLS’s “Wrestling
with Israel” course at the end of last year.
Setting up a Grassroots Israel Group (GIG)
The course
The course’s six sessions brought new perspectives to the debate about
Israel and Palestine. These included
• The work of FODIP (Forum for the Discussion of Israel and Palestine)
to encourage dialogue between Jews, Christians and Muslims
• The experiences of a blogger who monitors anti-semitism and
attempts to deligitimise Israel in the media
• Views from two Israelis and their friends, how they have changed,
and their concerns about how Israel is portrayed in the UK
• A new film showing the work of the Bereaved Families Forum in
bringing together Israeli and Palestinian families who have been
bereaved as a result of the conflict
• A high powered talk on the continuing work of British Israel
Communications and Research Centre (BICOM) to defend the
position of Israel at governmental levels
• Practical advice on starting a local grassroots group seeking to create
a more complete understanding of Israel and its situation in the UK
A review of some of the talks which were given will appear in the next
edition of KNQ (KLS’s quarterly magazine).
GRASSROOTS ISRAEL GROUP
��continued from page 4
Luke told us that historically
groups have concentrated on the
media and top level decision
makers in the country and that the
grassroots have been under
resourced.
But grassroots pressure works.
We only have to look at the
success of the Palestinian
Solidarity Campaign with its
Boycott Divestments and Sanctions
(BDS) Campaign against Israel.
(This group started as a grassroots
group and now has branches
everywhere in the UK.)
Small numbers of active vocal
people can get their opinions
heard (for example in the recent
cases of large organisations such
as Unite and the Co-op).
What can we do to help?
Below are some things we can do.
1. Stay informed, write letters to
MPs, the press and stakeholders,
sign petitions, vote in elections
asking candidates where they
stand
2. An all day workshop organised by
FODIP together with Twickenham
United Reform Church one Sunday
this Spring
3. Contact the London office of the
“OneVoice” movement for help
and further advice and information
at www.onevoicemovement.org
4. Support and attend meetings of
the South London Israel Forum
5. Support the initiative of the group
of members of Kingston United
Synagogue who are in continuing
talks with local Methodist leaders
and Quakers
6. Subscribe and keep up to date with
what is going on (not just when
Israel hits the headlines with
renewed reporting of the conflict)
7. Write to thank MPs when you see
a supportive comment or article
about Israel
8. Identify allies and build alliances
with potential supporters outside
the Jewish community
9. A small crisis management team of
people with the biggest possible
email list so we can keep the
community informed in real time
10. Attend and support Israeli cultural
events
11. Use a friend or family in Israel to
hear their personal experience
which can be told to others so they
can hear what is happening on an
individual level
12. Look regularly at websites with
information about Israel (see panel
above)
13. Set up a Grassroots Israel Group
at KLS – a KLS GIG? Only a small
number of people between 5 and
10 are needed to take a lead and
be publicly visible.
Interested in a GIG?
If you are interested in setting up
or co-ordinating or leading a group
please email

available at www.yomhashoah.org.uk or
020 7543 5400.

Making Of Maurice Sendak
An illustrated talk by Irene Wise
Tuesday 5 March 5.30 to 7.30 pm
University of Roehampton Library, 4th floor, Archive
Seminar Room (416A)
Maurice Sendak, writer and illustrator of children's
books, died last May. Sendak is best known for his 1963
picture book 'Where The Wild Things Are', which was
turned into a film and an opera. Sendak's influences are
diverse: they include German Romantic Art, as well as
childhood incidents, Jewish stories, and American
popular culture. Sendak wrote eloquently about music,
illustration and the events that shaped his work. Irene
will draw on Sendak's own words to trace the sources of
the artist's inspiration.
Irene Wise is a freelance artist, illustrator and writer.
She is Holocaust Educator at the Imperial War Museum,
Senior Lecturer in Media and Culture at Roehampton
University; and Creative Educator at the British Library.
For Penguin Books, Irene has written and curated an
interactive iPad app of Anne Frank's Diary.
Please join the JRC for this fascinating talk. It would be
very helpful if you could let Maria Collins know if you
are planning to come at [email protected]
