October 28, 2012 Breitbart.com The biggest issue Israel faces today is not the garden-variety Arab Spring. It also is not whether equality and democracy reign in Israel. It’s also surprisingly not the Palestinian-Israeli conflict many associate as the bone of contention of the region. The mother-of-all-issues, as I learned Monday from Dr. Andy David, Israel’s Consul […]
August 19, 2012 Breitbart.com When the International Olympic Committee recently denied recognition of 11 Israeli Olympians murdered during the Munich Games in its opening ceremony, and Mitt Romney’s ad campaign dinged President Obama for not visiting Israel during his term, many turn to grassroots pro-Israel organizations to assess the damage.

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 […]

Heck, you could ask Sadat yourself if the Brotherhood hadn’t assassinated […]
The United Nations has a longstanding pastime that is virtually unknown. It’s not a noble one like eliminating bloodshed in the Congo, or restoring law in Somalia or even peacemaking in Kashmir. It’s not focused on condemning countries with appalling human rights abuses like China, Cuba, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Sudan and Zimbabwe. Oh, no. It has […]
The Jerusalem Post just characterized Israel’s prompt response to Haiti’s earthquake victims as the Israel’s “public relations knight in shining armor.†That couldn’t be further from the truth.
