My thoughts on politics.
Whether he resigned or was fired, Bolton is out. Perhaps because like so many presidents before him, Trump thinks he can reason with Iran, which is run by despots. Some analysts believe Trump prefers to try the diplomatic route and fail, before trying a military solution. Which is why Bolton, who was adamantly opposed Iran …
When someone spray-paints “Free Palestine” on the side of a major synagogue, it proves that point that anti anti-Israelism is antisemitism. There’s just no getting around it. That’s exactly what happened this week, in yet another explosive case of European antisemitism. At least in the case of the largest synagogue in Barcelona, someone of significance …
According to CAMERA Senior Media Analyst Ricki Hollander, PBS Newshour is once again spreading anti-Israel propaganda, claiming that the IDF uses exploding bullets to quell protests. An article by Jane Ferguson, “Gazans suffer life-shattering injuries when border protests turn violent” says nothing about the violent nature of the weekly protests and how Hamas deliberately brings …
In a surprise move, the U.S. State Department has deleted the Palestinian Authority (PA) from its list of countries and territories on its website. Until now, one could find “Palestinians” listed under “Palestinian Authority.” Prior to that, it was listed as the “Palestinian Territories.” The deletion represents a significant decline in value for Palestinian status, …
After Tlaib agreed to the conditions of Israel’s Interior Minister Ariyeh Deri, in order to see her grandmother, she changed her mind and backtracked, refusing to refrain from political activity during her visit. President Trump was quick to comment on the seeming cynicism of Tlaib’s actions. Israel was very respectful & nice to Rep. Rashida …
Conflicting reports have it that President Trump told his advisers that Israel should ban Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib from entering the Jewish State. Why conflicting? Because he only said this in private to his advisers. He never had his administration suggest this idea to Israel. You know how it is: Presidents have a way …
Antisemitic graffiti appeared overnight on the Lake Harriet Community School in Minneapolis, on Thursday, August 1, just a few weeks before school is about to begin. The graffiti text read, “KIKES MUST DIE,” and this was accompanied by a swastika symbol. This is the same district that elected Rep. Ilhan Omar, who is infamous for …
Louis Farrakhan, the notorious antisemite, is at it again with the allegations that sexual offenses stem from the Talmud. Needless to say, this is horrifyingly offensive and false. Such statements increase our difficulty in understanding the highly placed people who refuse to disavow Farrakhan, for instance, the Women’s March leaders. It is never good when …
In Israel, it has become a source of pride for Haredim to abstain from working for a living, and depending on meagre stipends for learning Torah full time. A study has come to light showing that in spite of being what most people call “unemployed,” Haredim manage to stay out of debt. This is as …
You know how it is, killing time while waiting for your plane. What else are you gonna do but go on Facebook? And since you’re sitting in Ben Gurion Airport, after visiting the Jerusalem Al-Aqsa Mosque, you might as well post a status expressing a prayerful wish that all Jews be exterminated. At least that’s …
