Exposing the Palestinian Narrative Gingrich-Style

Decem­ber 24, 2011 • BigPeace.com   Some­how, left-leaning jour­nal­ists just can’t twist the truth enough to put a dent in the cam­paign of pres­i­den­tial can­di­date Newt Gin­grich. All polls show Gin­grich gain­ing. Yet some are des­per­ately try­ing to change that. Now, self-professed Pales­tin­ian jour­nal­ist Daoud Kut­tab is recap­ping anti-Israel New York Times jour­nal­ist Thomas Friedman’s hate […]

Erdogan, Send Your Warships To Niger Instead

On September 9, 2011, in Delegitimization, Gaza flotilla, Hamas terrorists, Israel, by jenhanin

Sep­tem­ber 9, 2011 • BigPeace.com Turk­ish Prime Min­is­ter Recep Tayipp Erdo­gan recently raised eye­brows when he deep-sixed Israeli diplo­mats from Turkey. But it was his later remarks broad­cast on Al Jazeera tele­vi­sion that Turk­ish war­ships would accom­pany Turk­ish aid ves­sels to Pales­tini­ans in the Gaza Strip that dropped jaws. War­ships? Why would Turk­ish war­ships need […]

Flotilla-O-Rama: The Sequel

On July 11, 2011, in Delegitimization, Gaza flotilla, Hamas terrorists, Israel, by admin

July 11, 2011 •  BigPeace.com Do you sup­port a cause drown­ing in innu­endo? Share facts online when lies are reported erro­neously? Take action via Twit­ter, Face­book or in per­son to evoke a brighter future? Many would argue activism to improve the lives of oth­ers is hard-wired into our human con­di­tion, built-in to our DNA. Hear­ing about hunger, deprivation, […]

Whitewashing the War on Terror

On May 3, 2011, in Al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, terrorism, by jenhanin

I dropped an f-bomb Sun­day night when I heard a guy on CNN say: “Killing bin Laden is the end of the war on ter­ror. We can just sort of announce that right now.” I had no idea what talk­ing head was on in the next room and only hoped whomever it was had an updated resume because comments […]

Hypocrisy Continues Long After the Massacre Ends

As a law abid­ing cit­i­zen, I under­stand that when a com­plaint is made to the police, the police have an oblig­a­tion to inves­ti­gate. I would assume the inves­ti­ga­tion of columnist/ author Melanie Phillips falls in this rote cat­e­gory. Yet, when eval­u­at­ing the duplic­i­tous nature of her accuser, Inayat Bun­galawa, and his disin­gen­u­ous orga­ni­za­tion, Muslims4UK, this com­plaint war­rants a closer look […]

Right Side of History or Left Side of Disaster?

By now, any­one who’s surfed the inter­net, turned on a TV, radio or had a dis­cus­sion about world pol­i­tics has heard that Egypt­ian Pres­i­dent Hosni Mubarak has stepped down. Really forced out. A peace­ful rev­o­lu­tion that was really a street-side coup d’état to top­ple a cor­rupt gov­ern­ment that was a firm friend of the West. So how do we inter­nal­ize US […]

Where’s Geraldo?

On February 4, 2011, in Egypt, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, Muslim Brotherhood, by jenhanin

I’ll have to say my con­fi­dence in Piers Mor­gan evap­o­rated into the Orange County breeze last night when I heard him dimin­ish the dan­ger of the Mus­lim Broth­er­hood on Piers Tonight. Piers went head-to-head with Mort Zuck­er­man, the cur­rent editor-in-chief of U.S. News & World Report when Zuck­er­man essen­tially told Piers that they don’t play in […]

Glocks, Crocks & Shades of Gray

Many of my blog fol­low­ers have asked why I haven’t blogged in a few weeks. That’s sim­ple. I’d love to say I was ski­ing the Alps or div­ing the Sey­chelles or maybe even scal­ing the Andes but in all hon­esty, besides advo­cat­ing for Act For Israel, I spent the last month comb­ing through all 18 chap­ters of my upcoming […]

Eradicating Hate Ads, One Bus At A Time

How can any group, let alone a county in the United States, pre­tend its own poli­cies on bus adver­tis­ing isn’t offen­sive if the mere ver­biage incites hate? This is exactly what’s hap­pen­ing in Seattle’s King County while the fringe group, Seat­tle Mideast Aware­ness Cam­paign, defends its planned ads that tout, “Israeli War Crimes.” The group’s spokesperson, […]

Consider Being Israel’s Phoenix

On December 7, 2010, in Carmel Fire, Israel, by jenhanin

I put my blog aside the last few weeks to con­cen­trate on an effort close to my heart. Those who know me KNOW it must be some­thing worth­while because it’s hard for me to neglect my blog. They couldn’t have been more right. Every ounce of my free time out­side of co-authoring a book and raising […]
