sorry! I had translated this in a previous email.
V'neahapoch hu is a phrase in the megillo referring to the turnabout that
the Jews triumphed over their enemies instead of vice versa.
So, Purim has incorporated a number of customs that reflect the
turnabout. How about triumphing over the bad old soviet Union (evil
empire???). Singing a Soviet Song to Purim words would fit into this
category. it's all in the spirit of Purim, where Jews dress as up as
"goyim" (gentiles)
Also, there a number of meodlies to v'nehapoch so it qualifies as a
song title, too!
Happy Purim
Rich Wolpoe
