This week on the Tribal Update, the television on internet news satire show produced by Latma, the Hebrew language media satire site I run, we feature the Israeli media’s commentary on Netanyahu’s visit to Washington. We also bring you a stark warning about what awaits Israel in September. Enjoy! Latma is funded through contributions to the…
President Obama’s speech on the Middle East at the State Department last week, his icy glares at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office last Friday, his address before the AIPAC conference on Sunday, and his subsequent press briefings have all made clear that he is not sympathetically inclined toward Israel, nor does he consider Israel an ally…
Just to understand the critical importance of Latma in empowering the Israeli public to stand up to the Israeli media, look at these two stories. First, from the leftist Haaretz newspaper, comes a story about a Haaretz poll that shows the Israeli public overwhelmingly thinks Netanyahu advanced the country’s national interests and did not harm Israel’s relations with the…
Despite the fact that he’s an atheist, I really like Pat Condell much of the time. Here’s his new zinger. God bless him! (I mean it, so sue me Pat, heh…). What he says about the historic role of the Catholic Church in propagating anti-Semitism is true. I would just add that as far as I’m concerned,…

Both the ZOA and CAMERA have made strong statements in support of Wiesenfeld and against the conferral of the honorary degree to Wiesenfeld. On the other hand, the Conference of…

We also feature a commemoration of the German Naqba. Enjoy! …
I have been meaning to write about the storm raging in New York following CUNY’s board of trustees decision not to present an honorary degree to anti-Israel propagandist/faux artiste Tony Kushner but due to travels and other time killers, haven’t had the opportunity. Before it is too late, I want to add my two bits to the controversy. First, for the…
