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 […]
When will pro-Palestinian factions stop the theatrics and act like they really want a state? Apparently, these groups not only have oodles of time on their hands to undermine Israel with meticulous, never-ending PR stunts, but they also have a colossal pocketbook to fund countless delegitimization brouhahas. Weeks ago, Israelis had to deal with the promise of […]
For obvious reasons, April 15 is one of the most dreaded days in America. Now it will have a bad rap in Israel but for a very different reason. You see, another publicity stunt known as both “Air Flotilla 2†and “Welcome to Palestine†arrives at Ben Gurion Airport this Sunday. Judging by its lethal predecessor — […]
When I read the organizers of the Global March on Jerusalem were claiming Israeli Jews were “Judaizing†Israel, I nearly choked on whole wheat Matzah (I’m starting early this year). The term “judaizing†hasn’t been in common use since the days of the Inquisition. Back then, I would be jailed, tortured and likely killed for being a “converso.†[…]
I had the pleasure of being one of a handful of devoted advocates manning Act For Israel’s social media during both “Nakba” (the annual date when Palestinians mourn the 1948 declaration of the Jewish state) and “Naksa” (marking Arab defeat and territorial losses in the 1967 Six Day War). While Act For Israel was able to get […]
Since Friday, Palestinian terrorists in Gaza have fired over 200 rockets at cities, towns, and farming regions in southern Israel, yet the best EU Foreign Policy Chief Catherine Ashton can cough up is concern over the escalation of violence that “left 14 Palestinians dead.†Statements like this serve as a u-turn on human rights and a drastic […]
Harvard is the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States, and the first corporation (under The President and Fellows of Harvard College) chartered in the country. It’s history, influence, and wealth have made it one of the most prestigious universities in the world until recently. Now, Harvard is on a path that could […]
Myth: Israel is an “occupier†who is committing human rights violations against Gazans with its oppressive blockade. Fact: The Israeli government implemented a naval blockade of the Gaza Strip to protect Israeli citizens who were the target of repeated Hamas-led terrorist attacks. The maritime blockade limits Hamas’s ability to smuggle arms via sea. Hamas governs Gaza and is […]
Palestinian authority leader Mahmoud Abbas stated he ask the UN Security Council for recognition of Palestinian statehood next week. But this request is coming without a previously-negotiated settlement with Israel. While many UN members have stated they’ll support the Palestinian request, key players like the US have made it clear they will veto any such effort. […]
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVsjNzXojCM&feature=player_embedded The one elusive dream of a future where Israeli and Arab children can live without the threat of war and fear of terrorism unites all Israelis. Yet, it’s the long history of failed negotiations with the Palestinians that proves yearning for peace is not enough. To its credit, Israel has presented far-reaching peace proposals, made […]
