    Are Blonde Arabs Still Semites? Do They Have a Right to Live in the...

    According to PC, pale white, blond-haired, blue-eyed people are BAD while black folk are GOOD, and people shades in between are rated accordingly. But what do we do if a blond, white Arab girl slaps an olive-skinned or darker Israeli soldier? Which one is right and which one wrong?

    Shiloh Musings: We Were Not Illegal Migrants in Egypt!

    I don't see how illegal migrants have anything in common with Jacob and family thousands of years ago. It pains me to see respected rabbis, adopting Leftist ideology to Jewish History and Theology.

    The Narrative

    The 'Palestinian Narrative' has various forms and incarnations, which may be more or less persuasive. But they all make several main false claims:

    The “Diplomatic Settler”

    The NY Time’s coined quite a phrase:“diplomatic settler.” It’s also completely nonsensical. U.S. ambassadors are U.S. citizens, not Israeli. How can an American be a settler? Simply by being Jewish?

    Jews Don’t Control the Weather? What Do You Call The Ten Plagues?

    When a little bit pf Purim comes to Pesach--Trayon White brings his meteorological expertise to the Haggadah

    Shiloh Musings: “Peace” in the Middle East? Not With Such a History

    Anyone who claims that there can be peace is talking total fiction. The main uniting ideology among the Arab countries surrounding the State of Israel and those even further away is our destruction. They're not even shy about it. And this anti-Israel hate/ideology is all over the world.

    Inspiration from Zion: Warriors of the Mind

    In one room were gathered people who, each in his or her own way, reflects the light that is Israel. The Hasby Awards are awards like any other, for a group of people that are unlike any other. It is not the awards so much that matter, it is the people

    Will Israel Keep the Draft?

    Many observers have said that Israel would be better off with a fully volunteer, professional army. Paradoxically, some of the best things in Israeli life come from the years of compulsory servitude dictated by universal conscription

    One Reason Americans Often are Wrong About Jews and Israel

    Why are liberal Americans often so wrong about anything connected to Jews or Israel, despite the fact that they are seemingly obsessed with these subjects? Just ask the New York Times

    Inspiration from Zion: 3 Principles that Make Inclusion in Israel a Success

    Israel is a family. Family doesn’t put members in a closet to make their own lives easier, and families love all of their members, finding the best in each other and helping each other grow. Just as we would not leave one of our own children behind, it would be inappropriate to leave someone else’s child behind – even if he or she needs a little more help to keep up.

    The Long, Shorter Path

    I propose a new adage based on a recent study: Depression is good for you. No, not that kind of depression. Economic depression – as in the Great Depression.

    Maybe It’s Time To Fess Up, We DO Run The World

    You'd be surprised who is a Jew--and so would they.

    Israel’s Right of Self-Defense

    Unfortunately, the attitude of the international community does not grant to Israel the same right of self-defense that every other nation is given. Even when Israel has been attacked, a the Islamic-European-NGO-media axis has defined Israel as the aggressor.

    Ellison & Farrakhan Are Systemic Of Democratic Party’s Antisemitism

    According to the Deputy Chairman of the Democratic Party Rep. Keith Ellison, his colleagues don’t care about his ties to Farrakhan and he is probably correct because Antisemitism is embedded into the Democratic Party.

    The Poisonously Ambiguous Concept of “Two States”

    The problem is that the concept of “two states” is poisonously ambiguous. Everyone can understand it to mean something different, up to embracing diametrically opposite ideas.

    Yishai Fleisher’s Hate Speech in the NY Times

    Some NY Times editors believe that discussing alternatives to the two-state solution constitutes hate speech.

    Everyone thinks war is unavoidable, and most people understand, at least on an intellectual level, that this war is going to be one of the toughest in Israel’s history.

    Farrakhan’s hateful words Sunday were reported by the media but his relationship with Democrats was not treated the same way as when a bigot announces support of President Trump.

    Inspiration from Zion: Gun Control: America, Israel and the Chasm in Between

    In Israel gun control is very strict and most Israelis are against easy access to guns. Israelis tend to be dumbfounded by American attitude towards guns – we see guns as necessary tools to be used to defend lives, nothing else. They are not toys for collecting or weekend entertainment and hunting is not considered a sport or cool.

    Ron Dermer’s Profound Insight at AIPAC

    Trump's Jerusalem Declaration has historical ramifications that go far beyond just moving the embassy.

    Is Israel a Colony?

    The only one reason that Jews came to the land of Israel was because it was home that is central to their religion, beliefs, hopes and lives. As to the imperial question: the only imperialists still in the Middle East are the Islamic Arabs

    A Great Prime Minister – Despite Everything

    Of course Bibi has his flaws, but I think I join many Israelis who do not see among the potential candidates to lead the nation one that could better ensure our security. And that is the issue, light years ahead of the price of apartments and his wife’s taste in champagne.

    Inspiration from Zion: 3 Things to Know About Israeli hospitals

    Health is a great equalizer. In Israeli hospitals, religious Jews and religious Muslims are treated side by side. The medical staff consists of Israelis of all backgrounds: Sabra Israelis, new immigrants from Russia, America, South America, and Argentina, Ethiopian Jews, Arab Muslims, Arab Christians… the entire spectrum of the Israeli population can be found in patients and caregivers.
