Saturday, February 4, 2012 The End of Days in Palestine (2 comments)
Warning: The video embedded here is a dramatization, but it is graphic and shocking. Please watch knowing it is not real.
Now imagine the threat is not a tidal wave, rushing floodwaters, a violent tornado or some other natural disaster, and something that can wipe out life as we know it for years to come, destroying not just property, but everyone and everything in its wake.
Monday, January 30, 2012 Iron Clad isn't Necessarily Rock Solid: How Israel Fares to America (2 comments)
The President, in his speech, devoted most of his attention to domestic issues and spent little time on foreign affairs. That's actually a good thing. Yet, in that small allotment of time, he gave Israel a shout-out and emphasized how the U.S. cares for her security. For his supporters, they will say that proves what a friend he is, but a real friend cares enough to help make sure that the use of the war machines.
Wednesday, January 18, 2012 Mama, They're Taking My Kodachrome Away
As digital imagery crept onto the market and the megapixel count rose to such a point that the silver-coated cellulose acetate strips went the way of the muscle car's carburetors, leaving it for enthusiasts and pedants, Kodak, which based its growth on the sale of cheap throwaway cameras and mass quantities of consumables such as its film, developing chemicals and photo paper, lost its market share.

Tuesday, January 17, 2012 Can Jack Lew Do for Obama What AmeriCorps Did for Clinton?
Lew makes for an interesting choice for Mr. Obama. He comes with impressive credentials stemming from his days working for Democratic Congressman Joe Moakley and the late House Speaker Tip O'Neill. More recently, he was an executive at Citicorp where he ran a group that made alternative investments, such as hedge funds, credit swaps and other creative financial mechanisms
Sunday, January 8, 2012 "They have turned away from what I commanded them' (3 comments)
When Moses came down from Mount Sinai he saw a people decadent and corrupt who had forgone the Judaism which G-d had given them. Prior to his descent, G-d saw this happening and told Moses, "Saru Ma'Hair, Min HaDerech Asher Tzvitem -- they have turned away quickly from the way that I commanded them," as he directed Moses to go down and set the people straight. History repeats itself and we do not have a Moses today.
Wednesday, August 4, 2010 Palestinians Using Academics and Liberal Ideals to Promote an Extremist Agenda (7 comments)
The Palestinian Boycott Divest Sanction movement against Israel is designed to capture the minds of today's youth under the cloak of academic expression of socially motivated values. Whereas the stated goals of radicals and Islamic fundamentalists are the destruction the BDS movement knows that it needs to sound and look moderate even as its end game is the same as those who admit to desires to destroy Israel
Monday, June 7, 2010 While Thomas is Going Home, Jews are Already there (30 comments)
The Helen Thomas affair has showed the world an ugly side of a rather influential, yet bitter woman. It underlies a deeper issue facing Israel, and that is the poor education and control of Israel's facts and the message.
Wednesday, June 2, 2010 Alone Among Nations, Israel Must Stand for Itself (9 comments)
Israel and the flotilla; once again a time for collective beatings on the small country in the Middle East. Israel was right; the peace boat was a dupe to bring Israel into this tired scenario.
Tuesday, May 13, 2008 Israel Needs New Memories so our Kids can Appreciate Too (2 comments)
The memories I have of Israel are rooted in a time long past. Losing the zeal for Frontier Zionism is what Israel faces today, and finding new and creative ways of giving people, both Israelis and outsiders alike a newfound attachment to the country is the challenge facing Israel and its supporters worldwide. A new public relations plan is one way to approach today's generation and for futures to come.
Wednesday, April 30, 2008 Relationships Drive All That We Do: Make the most of them (2 comments)
A lesson in relationship management, from how one's relationships can define, advance or even restrain growth and success. Taken from experience, a little introspection and pragmatism, it's about life.
Wednesday, November 22, 2006 In an Effort to Disparage Israel, Palestinians Recognize Israel's Morality (1 comments)
At almost the same moment as U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour declared that there were mass human rights violations perpetuated against the Palestinians by Israeli forces, Palestinians were declaring victory over an Israeli attempt to target the home of a known terrorist; unintentionally proclaiming Israel's unwillingness to maliciously target civilians.
Friday, November 17, 2006 We Need a United United Nations
The United Nations has failed to live up to the expectations of FDR or anyone seeking peace. It has been a successful venture for the evil and greedy leaders of the world. It's time to begin anew, hopefully for the better this time.
