Hanukkah attack shows Jews must learn self-defense

Posted on December 29, 2019 by Bookworm

The Hanukkah attack didn’t arise in a vacuum: World politics and history reminds us that Jews cannot look to others for help but must defend themselves. Ever since World War II, the mantra has been “Never Again.” I hope you notice how carefully wrote that sentence in passive voice, something

Donald Trump: Worst anti-Semitic president ever

Posted on December 26, 2019 by Bookworm

An orthodox Jewish man sparked a meme when he had Siri confirm, after the Dems’ impeachment vote, that Trump is still president — to resounding cheers. All evidence to the contrary, the media and the Democrats (but I repeat myself), loudly insist that Trump is an anti-Semite. But he has

Bookworm Beat Benghazi Leftists Social Media

Bookworm Beat 5/7/19 — the Vanishing Conservatives on Social Media edition

Posted on May 7, 2019May 12, 2019 by Bookworm

There are reasons for you to be very afraid of the social media crackdown on conservatives (even fringe ones), plus other scary stuff in today’s world. Democrats prepare for 2020 by silencing conservatives. If I had to identify the scariest news today, it would be Twitter’s purge of conservatives, which

Bookworm Beat 3/15/19 — Ides of March illustrated edition

Posted on March 15, 2019March 15, 2019 by Bookworm

It’s only the Ides of March, not April Fools’ Day, but this jumbo illustrated edition, with all the Leftist craziness, shows Americans played for fools. Regarding this first poster, I’m not giving it as an example of Americans being played for fools. I just love the Trump puppy, who looks

Leftism, Islam, anti-Semitism, and the Jews

Posted on March 7, 2019April 5, 2019 by Bookworm

Democrats and Muslims have come together with anti-Semitism because it is their ideological destiny — and Leftist Jews are too indoctrinated to see it. One of the fascinating things about the world in which we live is the alliance between Leftists and Muslims. At first glance, it seems as if

Posted on March 6, 2019March 6, 2019 by Bookworm

Jexodus (or Jexit) asks Jews to leave an increasingly anti-Semitic Democrat Party, something I’m trying to facilitate with tweets to my #DearFellowJews. If you’ve been paying attention to the news of late, you can’t have missed stories about anti-Semitism. For example, for many years now, France has periodically been roiled

Ruth Bader Ginsburg offers constitutional advice to Egyptians in 2012

Reality shows that Ruth Bader Ginsburg knows nothing about constitutions UPDATE

Posted on March 20, 2018March 21, 2018 by Bookworm

Events in South Africa today reveal that the Progressives’ adored Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a moral and constitutional moron, not a brilliant Leftist avatar. Progressives adore Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whom they fondly call “Notorious RBG.” Indeed, in 2015, a book entitled Notorious RBG: The Life and Times

Does BYU’s online high school gov class promote an antisemitic canard? UPDATED

Posted on February 23, 2018February 24, 2018 by Bookworm

Am I overreacting to think that BYU’s online government class slipped in a gratuitous, classically antisemitic trope about Jews controlling foreign policy? I’ve written before about BYU’s online high school government class and, frankly, didn’t have much nice to say about it. It’s poorly written, poorly structured, and poorly informed.
