Global March to Jerusalem: Inquisition 2012?

On March 29, 2012,

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.” […]

Exposing the Palestinian Narrative Gingrich-Style

On December 27, 2011,

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 in […]

Exposing Media Slants is Key When it Comes to Israel

On March 14, 2011,

Act For Israel’s media fel­low, Mol­lie Hem­ing­way, describes not only what she’s sees on her tour of Israel and the var­i­ous media slants world­wide but per­haps the most dif­fi­cult of all, pass­ing the prepa­ra­tions for the funeral of the five Israelis slaugh­tered for no other rea­son but sheer hatred. Com­bat­ing this hatred for Israel and […]

Peace Partner” or Heinous Terrorist?

On March 14, 2011,

There are no words to describe how sad­dened Act For Israel and other pro-Israel groups and com­mu­ni­ties are after learn­ing about the Fogel Fam­ily Mas­sacre in the West Bank Jew­ish com­mu­nity of Ita­mar. There is no excuse for break­ing into inno­cent fam­i­lies homes and blud­geon­ing them to death. Israel has made numer­ous attempts to make peace […]

Here’s a Mirror, Let’s Unstick the Hate

On March 11, 2011,

There is noth­ing more absurd than Israel Apartheid Week. Those that expe­ri­enced apartheid in South Africa know that call­ing Israel an “apartheid state” is ridicu­lous. Like­wise, those that spent years in Nazi con­cen­tra­tion camps know that call­ing Israel a “Nazi state” is just pre­pos­ter­ous. Yet, Pales­tini­ans and those that hate Israel and Jews alike continue […]

Over 4,000 Years Old & Still Makes Us Feel Brand New

On March 6, 2011,

Some­times a day starts off as ordi­nary but quickly turns extra­or­di­nary. That’s exactly how Act For Israel felt when we received a tweet from Liziê Moz Korssak Cor­reia from Brazil, who pro­duced a heart­felt video about Israel and hon­ored Act For Israel in the process. We can’t thank her enough as Act For Israel is an all-volunteer digital […]

Replacing Demonization with a Conversation

On March 3, 2011,

There’s no doubt that if Israel’s crit­ics com­pared the Jew­ish State to its Arab neigh­bors toe-to-toe, they would see that their crit­i­cisms of Israel were pal­try when com­pared to the lack of democ­racy, human rights and indi­vid­u­als free­doms allowed in Arab coun­tries. Alan Krinksy hits a high note with his arti­cle in the Syd­ney Morn­ing Herald […]

Ditching the Double-Standard Applied to Israel

On March 3, 2011,

It’s no secret that the Mid­dle East is crack­ing at the seams over what Israel enjoys daily: democ­racy. No, longer is Israel the whip­ping boy of the Mid­dle East or the cause of regions ills. Now, the world can open its eyes and see that the auto­cratic rule in Arab major­ity coun­tries has kept millions […]

What Is Going On at UC Irvine?

On February 23, 2011,

Many have asked Act for Israel the exact title of this blog post: What is going on at UC Irvine? There are plenty who feel pros­e­cut­ing indi­vid­u­als for express­ing free speech is exces­sive and may endan­ger first amend­ment rights going for­ward. Then there are oth­ers who feel that this was an unusual case because it […]
