The Israelis are waking up to Obama’s anti-Israel agenda
Back in 2010, in a prescient interview for the New English Review, Richard Rubenstein, PhD, predicted with quite amazing accuracy the approach that Obama would take to the Middle East in the coming years. You and I suspected this all along but what makes this prescient video quite fascinating is
Continue readingGetting Obama to the right place in dealing with Israel
Just a random thought, but could Obama be persuaded to stop Iran from developing the bomb by convincing him that the mere possibility of a nuclear accident or intentional detonation is bad for the environment and would, in fact, worsen climate change? Or perhaps we could convince huge numbers of LGBTQs

It’s been pouring paying clients lately, which is a good thing but, as always, it cuts into my blogging time. I’ll skip the preliminaries and throw myself in the round-up. It’s a bad thing when our president is happy My Mom, in commenting on the state of the world today,

Wow! Can you imagine if American elections had commercials this good? It plays at so many levels: Superficially, it’s just plain funny. It also subtly and ably attacks the candidates running against Netayanhu. Lastly, at a very visceral level, the commercial forces voters to ask themselves which candidate will best

When you’re in the front line of the war against psychopaths inspired by fundamentalist Islamic doctrines, the war never ends, and every civilian finds himself being turned into a target. This time, it happened in Tel Aviv (if story doesn’t load, click on word “post,” below): Post by StandWithUs.

(For those who love Tudor history, the fanatic medieval antisemite Alison Weir mentioned in the video is not the same person as the British historian Alison Weir.)

These links aren’t related to Christmas Eve. They are simply interesting things that came my way today, as I was getting my family ready for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. (To those new to the blog, although I’m Jewish, I was raised celebrating both Christmas and Hanukkah in entirely secular ways.

Caroline Glick was not constrained by the meaningless language of diplomacy. She simply told the truth after listening to the Danish ambassador’s utterly revolting twaddle, in which he simultaneously expressed his antisemitism and his utter disdain for the Palestinian people who are the European tools to act upon that antisemitism:

A cold has been making the rounds in my neighborhood and it finally caught up with me. I don’t feel particularly ill, but I feel congested and quite desperately sleepy. I had a great deal to do today, and mostly managed to re-read Agatha Christie’s Mrs. McGinty’s Dead, which wasn’t

Every thinking person hopes that his or her words will be important and have meaning far beyond the moment they are spoken. Israeli Ambassador Ron Prosser’s November 25, 2014 speech to the UN General Assembly achieves that goal and then some. The world would be a better place if people

Cal is my alma mater, something that I find to be a perpetual embarrassment. It was bad in the 1970s and 1980s. It’s infinitely worse in the second decade of the 20th century. Watch what happens when a man waves an ISIS flag on campus and then compare it with

No thoughts today, either profound or self-centered. Just a burning desire to share with you all the wonderful things that come my way: Dr. Jonathan Gruber — the gift that keeps on giving It seems as if every conservative writing is churning out good stuff about what Gruber said, who he
