    You Are a Soldier: What Do You Do?

    In the mainstream media version, the IDF killed peaceful protesters. In reality, the terrorists were throwing firebombs at an army post.

    The October Non-Surprise: Secret Talks

    In my last blog, I called attention to a report that the US and Iran had made a secret agreement to end sanctions in return for a halt or pause in uranium enrichment. I suggested that this could be an “October Surprise:” the Obama campaign could claim that the President’s policy of partial sanctions and “tough diplomacy” had forced the Iranians to back down from their march toward nuclear weapons.

    NPR Takes the Side of Multiculturalism

    Europe has taken the path of multiculturalism and we can see the results.

    No ‘Respect’ for Racist Demagogue

    Background on MP George Galloway, the British legislator who refused to debate an Israeli.

    The Places Obama Will Avoid

    When does the 'Unbreakable Bond' become an abusive relationship?

    The Samira Ibrahim Affair

    It's not surprising that, especially in Egypt, the State Department had a hard time finding someone who did not share the common prejudices against Jews.

    Peace Process is Gone, But the Pressure Remains

    The thugs on the ground in Europe and the Obama Administration now simply want to impose the UN’s diktat on Israel.

    UN Palestine Resolution Killed Oslo

    Peace is not at hand — maybe it will never be, but that doesn’t mean that Israel can’t continue to survive and thrive.

    Enraged Zionists Burn Apple stores!

    Imagine Jews reacted to slights the way Muslims reacted throughout the Middle East and Europe.

    The NY Times: Dishonest, Defamatory and Deliberate

    You wouldn’t make donations to Hezballah, right? Then don’t buy the Times.

    Bombing Syrian Weapons and Securing Israel’s Future

    Long term trends are mostly in Israel’s favor, although there are serious short-term threats that have to be overcome.

    Will Obama Soon Announce ‘Peace in Our Time’?

    Can we expect an October Surprise this year? We may already have one brewing. A former CIA operative calling himself “Reza Khalili” and claiming to have been an agent inside the Iranian Revolutionary Guards organization, who has previously made skeptically-received claims that Iran had already produced 90% enriched uranium, is now saying that the Obama Administration has struck a deal with the Iranian regime that will shortly be announced:

    Who’s the Real Illiterate?

    Unfortunately, some people are still in the dark about the significance of this, and similar acts.

    Judaism as the Meaning of the Jewish state

    The ideal is a tolerant Jewish state which is nevertheless fully Jewish. This isn’t an easy sell to secular Israelis.

    Evergreen State — a Total Immersion Experience

    Students are drawn into psycho-political cyclotrons and are insulated from all other voices. What begins as a concern for human rights is amplified by contact with more and more extreme expressions of anti-Israel ideology.

    Recognition First, Recognition Above All

    Israel must insist that there can be no negotiations until all parties agree that Israel is the Jewish state of the Jewish people.

    Massacring the Truth

    The so-called “Jenin Massacre” of 2002 — a massacre that never happened — is emblematic of the way the truth is violated, over and over in this conflict. The most shocking aspect of the affair, for me, was the cynical way in which many were comfortable with inverting reality for ideological reasons.

    US Doesn’t Want to See Hamas Crushed

    Israel’s leaders know that there isn’t a diplomatic solution. But what can they do? Over the years, Israel has become so dependent on the U.S. — for advanced weapons, spare parts, etc. — that it is almost impossible to say no to US demands.

    Syria Using Chemical Weapons: Will the US Act?

    Deterrence requires a credible threat. It isn’t enough to issue ominous-sounding ultimata unless they are believed.

    Jew-Hatred in Egypt and Britain

    Morsi, who all but expressly said Jews control the Western media, would find a comforting embrace in the anti-Semitism of some Westerners.

    US Backs Wrong, Evil, Horse in Egypt

    For Obama, the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood attained power in a more-or-less free election, outweighs the fact that their political principles are thoroughly anti-democratic.

    Barry Rubin, Scholar and Friend

    This is not a post that I wanted to write, though I knew it was coming.

    Standing in Israel’s Shoes

    Finally, what if, say, Venezuela was developing nuclear weapons and every other day one of their officials promised to root out the ‘cancer’ that was the U.S.?

    Benter’s Back

    This is one of those times that I wish the anti-Semites were right, and that there was actually a semi-covert, powerful and well-funded Jewish lobby forcing the US to do its bidding.

    Will Obama Make Israel “an Offer it Can’t Refuse”?

    When push comes to shove, today’s liberals, even “strong supporters of Israel” like Chuck Schumer, are Obama supporters first.

    The Second American Letter to Netanyahu

    Following the letter from American Jewish leaders calling on Israel to make concessions, the Emergency Committee for Israel penned it's own letter to the Prime Minister.

    Obaminology

    Obama's visit is costly and complicated, and will have objectives that the President thinks are important, like Israeli withdrawals.

    Cancer Imagery and Jew Hatred

    The idea persists, despite the fact that — by any objective standard — the behavior of Israel is anything but expansionist and invasive.

    The Ant-Churchill Tries to Rise Again

    Could there be an Israeli politician more cynical than Ehud Olmert? Yesterday he accused PM Netanyahu of alienating President Obama — as if Obama could dislike him more — by ‘intervening’ in the US election.

    Ceasefire a Poor Outcome for Israel

    Today, the IDF announced that it had “accomplished its pre-determined objectives for Operation Pillar of Defense, and has inflicted severe damage to Hamas and its military capabilities.” It is embarrassing to read this statement.
