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 […]

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 […]

Today Jews, Tomorrow the West?

On my drive back from LA, my iPhone buzzed to life with break­ing news about pack­ages con­tain­ing explo­sives ear­marked for Chicago syn­a­gogues. The CNN bul­letin con­firmed US offi­cials believe al Qaeda in the Ara­bian Penin­sula (AQAP) is behind the cargo ter­ror plot. Now, do I believe al Qaeda or any other rad­i­cal Islamic group would plan […]

Clinton: Stop Being A Racist And Rescue Gilad Shalit

On September 24, 2010, in Ahmadinejad, antisemitism, Clinton, Islamic extremists, Israel, Lebanon, Palestinians, by jenhanin

Not long ago, Hillary Clin­ton made peo­ple wince with the same amount of pain that a paper cut or deeply embed­ded splin­ter evoke. These days, her hus­band Bill is gain­ing a rep­u­ta­tion as the lat­est ver­bal train wreck to crash into the State of Israel. What was Bill think­ing? Why would he attack Israeli Jews that happen […]

Politicized? Try Pulling the Wool Over Our Eyes

Imam Rauf cre­ated a firestorm yes­ter­day by becom­ing the lat­est media fix­ture to sug­ar­coat why Amer­ica needs an Islamic cen­ter near Ground Zero. He claimed yes­ter­day on CNN that cer­tain politi­cians have “politi­cized” this effort, which has caused a huge rift where none existed before. Well, raise your hand if you’re feel­ing nau­seous after see­ing the Imam […]

Calling All Superheros

We have heard it before and chances are we will hear it again. The play on words when it comes to Iran’s nuclear inten­tions couldn’t get any more absurd than if your favorite comic book vil­lain leaped from the pages and spoke it. Just yes­ter­day, the head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Agency announced the country […]

When Did Liberals Become Hypocrites?

Grow­ing up, being a lib­eral meant you were an intel­lec­tual who stood for noble causes like progress, peace and human rights. I’m proud to say my dad was one   –   he knew the wrongs that needed to be resolved but also knew when some­one put lip­stick on a pig. Yet today, those that claim to be lib­eral are often walking […]

Derailing Peace at Every Turn

Imag­ine if there were evil forces out to frame you no mat­ter what you did or how you did it. Then con­sider Israel. Just two days ago, IDF sol­diers per­formed rou­tine main­te­nance by clear­ing bushes to improve the line of sight along the Israeli  –  Lebanese bor­der. Then “suddenly”  –  a word that par­ents read­ing children’s books are all too […]

Cure the Disease, Not the Symptoms

Israeli For­eign Min­is­ter Danny Ayalon set the record straight with his recent Wall Street Jour­nal arti­cle on the dou­ble stan­dard the world places on Israel. Ayalon brought up a good ques­tion: where was the world a few years ago when Pales­tin­ian ter­ror­ists mur­dered nearly 500 locals at a refugee camp? Now I have one. Where were Oliver Stone, Elvis Costello […]
