I love how the caption writer felt the need to pinpoint the location of the tour guide as if you could confuse the crazy-hair guy in the center for a palestinian or policeman. Come to think of it, I knew Sacha Baron Cohen played an Israeli tour guide for an episode of The Simpsons, but [...]
“Next year in Jerusalem? Not on my watch!” The Jewish holiday of Pesach (Passover) starts tonight, which means: No blogging until at least Tuesday evening Less blogging than usual for the next week Open thread time! I am now going to post the obligatory cutesy Passover-related video And in case you are wondering how Matzah [...]
Anti-Israel blogger Richard Silverstein on Friday’s Hamas attack that killed two IDF officers: http://ow.ly/1rQfA I don’t want to appear to be blaming Palestinian militants for the current impasse.

Tony Abbott has [...]

Consider the British Mandate of Palestine, whose preamble says it all: The Council of the League of Nations: Whereas the Principal Allied Powers [...]
Details have emerged as to the real extent of the shabby treatment afforded to Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu at the hands of US President Barack Obama. Obama snubbed Netanyahu for dinner with Michelle and the girls, Israelis claim Benjamin Netanyahu was left to stew in a White House meeting room for over an hour [...]
Meet a remarkable man with a remarkable vision. Update: Shimon Waronker plans to open a trilingual elementary school in Brooklyn this September. He also was awarded the French Ordre des Palmes Académiques last year and was knighted by the French Ambassador.
I’ve heard of booby traps but this is ridiculous. PLASTIC surgeons using explosive-laden breast implants in homicide bombers could be a new terror Al-Qaeda tactic that airport scanning methods may miss. Terrorists are being fitted with exploding breast implants which are almost impossible to detect, British spies have reportedly discovered. The shocking new Al Qaeda [...]
