It is always so heartwarming to hear American leaders telling us that they know better than we where our best interests lie. If we were talking about tourism or financial investments perhaps we could benefit from such advice. But when we are talking about our obligations to our Creator, not to mention dangers to our [...]
Why would the PLO and other Arab haters-of-Israel object to having the Cave of Machpelah put on a list of places Israel seeks to renovate? Surely, even from their perspective, such activities will benefit them as well. In fact the Israeli government has already spent much time and money to make Machpelah a place where [...]
In the 1930s, a Jew by the name of Ze’ev Jabotinski traveled throughout Europe warning his fellow Jews that they were sitting atop a volcano that was about to erupt. He begged them to get up and leave the Exile while they still could and come home to "Palestine" (which in those days was a [...]
Chanukah is a joyous Jewish holiday. The Festival of Lights was meant to remind us of the miracles performed for our ancestors when our Jewish way of life was seriously threatened from both foreign enemies and Jewish traitors. Unfortunately too many of our leaders, while celebrating this holiday with joy and pride, fail to recognize [...]
The Jewish People exists to defy logic. Our very existence flies in the face of logic. Clearly we should have disappeared thousands of years ago. The most powerful nations in every generation sought our destruction, yet they have all disappeared and the tiny Jewish nation is still around.

The fact is that any Jewish leader who even suggests negotiating our right [...]
Please forgive my straightforward manner as I was just born last Friday night and have not yet had the time to learn the intricacies of diplomacy. There are those in my country who seem to think that we need your permission to defend ourselves from deadly enemies and even to naturally grow and develop. With [...]
As always when I make these visits to the USA I find myself wondering why I am doing this. It seems absurd and futile to even hope to influence Jews to leave the comfortable American Exile to come home to our only homeland. In addition I find myself fulfilling the Jewish role to bring knowledge [...]
AIPAC, the alleged lobby for Israeli interests, has decided to mount a vigorous campaign to urge Congressmen to pressure President Obama to pursue the so called “two state solution” (as if he needs to be pressured). While AIPAC may have noble intentions and hope to find a way to soften the growing tensions between the [...]
“Let me say very clearly that the way the European Union will relate to an [Israeli] government that is not committed to a two-state solution will be very, very different,” said Javier Solana, the EU’s foreign and security affairs chief. This statement is very similar to one expressed by Secretary of State Clinton on her [...]
