My opinion was formed from living in Israel, witnessing the horror of terror, reading the misinformation and downright lies perpetrated by the Western media, seen the incompetence of Israeli leaders to project the facts. My website comes from a particularly personal perspective. The articles may be controversial and provocative. For whatever strikes Israel today will surely visit you tomorrow.

Words can kill!


The words and frightening rhetoric heard since Trump's ascent to power is deeply troubling. The hateful terminology and threats on the streets of America resemble the atmosphere that was generated on the streets of Israel in the days leading to the assassination of Israeli Prime Minister, Yizchak Rabin.

TWO-STATERS IN A MONTY PYTHON SKETCH

is depressing to hear supposedly informed and influential global figures continue to tout a failed two-state theory as the only way to solve the Palestinian problem.

1917 From Palestine to the Land of Israel

2017 is an important year for Lovers of Israel. It is a hundred years since thousands of Allied soldiers drove out the Ottoman Turks from the Holy Land opening the way to re-establishing the Jewish State in the Land of Israel.

A Two-State Solution – Built on Nothing More than Hope.

I used to be a two-stater - until it blew up in my face with a spate of Palestinian terror bombings here in Netanya. This was after we signed a "peace" agreement with Arafat, the first Islamic arch-terrorist. Two-staters! I have two simple questions.

Ethnic cleansing of Jews without anyone noticing

One of the false mantras of the so-called Palestinian leadership and their BDS supporters is that they are being ethnically cleansed by the brutal Zionist occupiers. This despite the fact that the Arab population is increasing by leaps and bounds and thanks to Israel their health and medical care has improved greatly. So where is the ethnic cleansing? It is against Jews by the Palestinian leadership supported by the BDS activists and now with the help of the United Nations.

OBAMA’S BURDEN – THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE.

Attempts to achieve peace through inaction are bound to fail. Just ask the people of Aleppo. Attempts to achieve peace through appeasement are bound to fail. Just ask Neville Chamberlain. Peace only comes from assertive action that destroys a rampaging enemy’s will to survive. Just ask Winston Churchill.

The Short-Memory of Hillary-lovers.

Much has been written about Hillary Clinton’s atrocious foreign policy failures. Much has been written about the suspicious activities of the Clinton Foundation and Hillary’s involvement while acting as Secretary of State.

THE TEMPLE MOUNT. THE UNESCO VOTE AND WESTERN SHAME

UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization voted on 13th October against the very principles that it was created. UNESCO was founded in 1945 after World War Two to establish humanity's moral and intellectual solidarity. It says it strives to build networks among nations to enable this kind of solidarity.

A WORLD IN DENIAL

I am gravely concerned that the Obama-Clinton team is involved in an ongoing subversion policy not only on a national scale but on a global one. Certainly, as far as Israel is concerned there is a grand deception going on. In his UN General Assembly speech, President Obama spoke about “deep fault lines in the existing international order.” He’s right. He’s responsible for a lot of the mess.

America's Desperately Wrong Foreign Policy

If you want to study the weakness of American foreign policy under the Obama-Clinton-Kerry Administration, just look at the Turkish-Kurdish-Syrian triangle.

The Consequences of a Failed Palestinian Authority.

A month ago I wrote an article entitled ‘The Failed State of the Two-State Solution.’ In it, I wrote that “by the ballot or by the ballot Hamas will head any Palestinian state as they did when Israel withdrew from the Gaza Strip in 2005.”

The Death of Progressivism and Israel

In my book “Fighting Hamas, BDS and Anti-Semitism” I detail the discovery of a new strain of anti-Semitism that I noticed in Europe, namely the urge by haters to drive a wedge between the local Jew and the Jewish State. I wrote of several examples of the modern form of Jew hatred in the section entitled “The Malmo Symptom.”

Fighting Anti-Israel Hate

There is room for stating Israel's historic and legal rights to a Jewish homeland in a reasonable manner, but this does not seem to be making much progress in projecting Israel as a normal country with the same system and values of regular democratic countries.

There's blood in the water

A double crime was committed when Mahmoud Abbas, the Chairman of the Palestinian Authority, an interim self-governing body that undemocratically controls the Arabs in sections of Judea & Samaria, spoke before the European Parliament on June 23.

Britain outside the EU: An Israeli perspective

Money markets crashed as if some disaster had occurred. But what was seen by the unexpected “Leave the EU” vote is the beginning collapse of the EU, an unelected world of bureaucrats who regulate and control the lives of people in Europe.

Arab nationalism in the words of Lawrence of Arabia

I am researching and writing a book to be called ‘Battles for the Holy Land - 1917 and beyond.’ The book recalls the exploits of General Allenby and others that led to the liberation of Jerusalem. Its arrival will be timely as next year will mark a 100 years since that milestone.
