Ungracious Guest

I had never heard of Erykah Badu before this next story, and I hopefully won’t hear about her again.

You see, she seems to think that she is doing Israel a huge favor by gracing us with her presence.
Sporting a huge, billowing [...]

Podcast asks if Liberals are Fascist? – Shire Network News

I’m a little late posting the plug for the latest Shire Network News. It was a long show but might provide a little humorous diversion from the nonsense that is the Winograd Report. And how on earth did they manage to release it on a day of snow in Jerusalem?

Liveblogging the Latest – Wednesday January 30th

Updated throughout the day. Scroll down for updates and new posts.
It’s been raining down here in Israel, and, unlike recent weeks, I am not talking about Qassams. Rather, there has been heavy rainfall and, in some places such as Jerusalem and the Golan Heights, snow. And perhaps it is at least partially due [...]

Liveblogging the Latest – Monday January 28th

Another quiet evening and early morning, a further sign that perhaps IDF operations against the terrorists, as well as the terrorism-supporting (or at least not terrorism-opposing) population of Gaza, has had an effect. That is not to say that the terrorists have been resting – once again, the IDF arrested 10 wanted palestinian terror suspects [...]

Arab Unity in Praise of a Dead Scumbag

I have yet to see anything in the Arab press that mentions George Habash’s death as less than tragic.
The entire Arab world – from moderate US allies and Arab members of Knesset to the PA and the far reaches of the diehard Islamist terror groups – is uniformly mourning an arch-terrorist leader.
