A few notable anniversaries on the Palestinians’ big day


  With the nations of Europe and the rest of the world lining up to support the PLO bid to receive non-member state status at the UN General Assembly, it is worth noting two anniversaries of related but forgotten events.   Of course, everyone knows the obvious anniversary – Nov. 29, 1947 was the day the UN General Assembly passed…

The trap that Arik built


The cease-fire agreement that Israel accepted Wednesday night to end the current round of Palestinian rocket and missile attacks is not a good deal for Israel by any stretch of the imagination.   At best, Israel and Hamas are placed on the same moral plane.

They’ve proudly asserted it.   Here too it is worth noting that an attempt to “avoid…

National Review article – The Party of Victory


Next to the American people themselves, Israel is no doubt the biggest immediate loser in the U.S. presidential election. President Obama’s foreign policy is predicated on the false notion that the U.S. and Israel themselves are the principal causes of the Islamic world’s antipathy toward them. Consequently, Obama has cultivated the anti-American, genocidally anti-Jewish Muslim Brotherhood and facilitated the Brotherhood’s…

A time for courage, and action


  Mitt Romney wasn’t a bad candidate. He ran a fairly strong race. He made a few errors. And he made many good moves.   Certainly he was adequate. And he was probably the strongest Republican candidate among the primary field of contenders. That is, he was the best man available to run against Barack Obama.   And he did…
