Ahmadinejad or Ashton? Tough Choice

On May 1, 2012,

Which is worse? Ahmadine­jad claim­ing his Islamic regime is devel­op­ing nuclear iso­topes to “treat can­cer” or EU For­eign Pol­icy Chief Cather­ine Ash­ton spear­head­ing the P5+1 engage­ment team try­ing to nego­ti­ate a solu­tion with Iran?  For those fol­low­ing the issues closely, choos­ing between these two presents a real dilemma. Those who know Iran’s his­tory of call­ing Israel a cancer […]

PA = PR Agency

On April 17, 2012,

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 […]

Nothing Peaceful Can Come from a Hamas-run Palestine

On May 3, 2011,

Over the years, we have seen a reoc­cur­ring theme of Pales­tini­ans fail­ing to accept the Jew­ish State that can be traced back to the 1952 movie, The Faith­ful City, pro­duced four years after Israel’s inde­pen­dence. Unfor­tu­nately, the inabil­ity for Pales­tini­ans to set­tle their dif­fer­ences with the Jew­ish State the last 63 years and work towards real […]

Time to Turn the Tables (& Give Peace a Chance)

On March 17, 2011,

We have seen it all before. Israel makes con­ces­sions and the Pales­tini­ans refuse, stall, com­plain and only ask for more. This occurs decade after decade in what seems like a B hor­ror flick with no end in sight. Lots of Pales­tin­ian rejec­tions with no inkling of peace agree­ment, just more ter­ror attacks and with it, more […]

Jews Don’t Control the Media

On November 1, 2010,

Clearly, Jews don’t even have a big say in the media or Israel would not receive such dis­parag­ing treat­ment. Nev­er­the­less, Israel is a coun­try that the world loves to talk about 24/7. Many times, the media pro­files the country’s tech­no­log­i­cal and med­ical break­throughs but not nearly often enough. Instead, the Jew­ish State con­tin­ues to get pum­meled by neg­a­tive cover […]

Peace or Pipedream? Palestinians Must Pick

On October 21, 2010,

What is for­mer US Pres­i­dent Jimmy Carter think­ing these days? Meet­ing with Hamas leader Khalid Mashaal doesn’t bode well for his rep­u­ta­tion. Pro-Israel sup­port­ers are furi­ous with this as Hamas is a rec­og­nized ter­ror­ist group by the United States and Israel. Then there is Gilad Shalit to con­sider. Hamas has held Gilad Shalit for over four […]

Say Shalom – Hello to Peace, NOT Goodbye

On September 17, 2010,

The opti­mism that sur­rounded us recently at the begin­ning of the DC sum­mit some­how dis­si­pated and the smoke of hope has turned into a cloud of uncer­tainty. Yet, again, there is no agree­ment of talks and pro­gress depends on whether Pales­tini­ans can mus­cle another 10 Month mora­to­rium. In a con­fer­ence call with 600 Jew­ish Rabbi’s, Pres­i­dent Obama praised Israeli […]

The Head and Not the Tail – Durable Peace Now

On September 8, 2010,

U.S. Pres­i­dent Barack Obama is pleased with the out­come of the Wash­ing­ton sum­mit and plans to play a per­sonal role to move the peace process between Israel and the Pales­tini­ans for­ward, a senior U.S. offi­cial told Israeli news­pa­per, Haaretz, over the week­end. Prime Min­is­ter Ben­jamin Netanyahu and a num­ber of senior Pales­tin­ian and other Arab lead­ers expressed similar […]

Time Magazine Shame on You

On September 5, 2010,

Is it any won­der why Israel gets a bad rap when main­stream pub­li­ca­tions like Time Mag­a­zine mis­rep­re­sent the Jew­ish State? In its Sept. 13, 2010 issue, Time Mag­a­zine sug­gests Israel doesn’t care about Peace. Really? The author, Karl Vick, claims Israelis are much more con­cerned with liv­ing their lives and enjoy­ing them­selves than whether they have […]

The incipient Journey to a long awaited lasting Peace

On September 2, 2010,

The Amer­i­cans know how to pre­pare a show, how to fuel in high hopes and opti­mism in their aims and goals, and how to mount all their energy achiev­ing suc­cess­fully their mis­sion of launch­ing direct peace talks, a issue Obama took on him­self the first day he stepped into the Oval office, and had lit­tle accomplished […]
