Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I see this as a running series, as more and more evidence crops proving to the 78% of American Jews who voted for Obama that he will, as conservatives warned, oversee Israel’s destruction. Pre-election, I was assured by so many Jews that the Dems and Obama are friends of Israel,
Continue readingUPDATE: Pardon the white heat in the title of this post, but I cannot tell you how many times, during the days and months leading to the election, liberal Jews assured me, both in the media and in personal conversations, that Obama would never do anything to hurt Israel. Nor
Continue readingRowan Laxton is Middle East expert and a high ranking official in Britain’s Foreign Office. He is also a hard-core anti-Semite with limited impulse control (two things that seem to go together, by the way): A high-ranking diplomat at the Foreign Office has been arrested after allegations that he launched
Continue readingI’m fairly disinterested in Prince Harry. He strikes me as an unexceptional young man who grew up in an unpleasantly rarefied atmosphere, but who is finally finding meaning and purpose in his life through military service. He keeps forcing attention on himself, though, by having foot (or costume) in mouth
Continue readingOne of the things that was most obvious about the Mumbai massacre was the extraordinary effort the attackers — who were ostensibly upset about the India-Pakistan dispute over Kashmir — made to kill Jews. Not only did they seek out Jews in the hotels, they planned carefully and in advance
Continue readingAs long as the LA Times refuses to release the videotape of Obama at the Rashid Khalidi banquet, I’m going to accept the following from Doug Ross as absolutely true — and I urge all of you to do so too until that videotape is released. We’re all certain, aren’t
Continue readingI had a lovely time last night at a reception on the Bonhomme Richard, and plan on writing about it later today. However, other work calls, so I thought I’d fill this space with recommendations for interesting stuff you may want to read. In no particular order: William Katz, a
Continue readingThe title of my post is not true. But it could be, which is really, really sad: American elementary and high school textbooks contain many “gross misrepresentations” of Judaism, Christianity and Israel, according to a book-length study released this week by the San Francisco-based Institute for Jewish and Community Research.
Continue readingMichael Ledeen has a written a wonderful article that uses the evil in the world’s recent past (Hitler, Stalin), as a springboard for discussing the West’s resolute refusal to see the evil in its midst. I think the following paragraphs are the core of his argument, but the whole article
Continue readingI’m sure you won’t be surprised that many Obama supporters are new-fashioned Moonbat, Leftist antisemites. What you may be surprised to learn is that Obama’s official blog (not some sycophantic blog that an Obama groupie sets up on his own initiative) plays host to some of the worst antisemitic canards
Continue readingObama adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski has accused American Jews of McCarthyism for being critical of Israel’s critics. He’s not the first and he won’t be the last. The pattern, repeated over and over as we learn more about Obama’s advisers, is that one of them speaks fondly of the Palestinians or
Continue readingAlan J. Lerner said it best: “Words, words, words! I’m so sick of words. I get words all day through, first from him now from you. Is that all you blighters can do?” When it comes to Jews, Ed Lasky shows just how hollow Obama’s words of love are: Barack
Continue readingI read an interesting pair of articles today — bookends, if you will — that discuss Obama’s increasingly tortured relationship with American Jews. The first, by Sabrina Leigh Schaeffer, notes two things: first, Obama’s Israel-friendly rhetoric and, second, his numerous associations with people who are openly antisemitic and actively hostile
Continue readingThe most un-rev Jeremiah Wright elaborated today on his various statements during an appearance at the National Press Club. What he had to say was most enlightening since, when he wasn’t prevaricating or deflecting a point with self-deprecating humor, he sounded pretty ugly. Here are a few things that caught
Continue readingThe accepted wisdom is that the intense hatred the Palestinians feel for Jews is a direct result of Jewish annexation of the West Bank and Gaza after the 1967 War. Of course, as with most propaganda, this is false. Aside from conveniently ignoring the 1956 and 1948 Wars, not to
