Suggestion For Olmert

Suggestion For Olmert

Yes, I’m aware it is part of Intel’s slogan, but the fact that only some of it is showing leads me to believe that this is another example of a subliminal message for Olmert.

Ok, maybe not so subliminal.

Proud to be a Zionist (5768 Edition)

In prayers every morning Jews say a phrase praising G-d, describing Him as המחדש בכל יום תמיד מעשה בראשית – He who continually renews the act of Creation. In other words, the Jewish concept of G-d has him in an active role keeping the universe running, and as such it is appropriate to praise Him.

Happy 60th

Dear Israel,
Sorry I am not there to celebrate with you. But if it’s any consolation, I miss you like hell.
Love,

Reasons to Love Israel #467

Today is Yom Hazikaron (Remembrance Day) in Israel, the day on which Israelis remember and pay respect to those who gave their lives for Israel, namely 22,437 soldiers and terror victims.
At 11AM this morning, a 2-minute siren wailed and Israelis stood silently and remembered the fallen. While I was on the other side of the [...]

The First Refugees of the War of Independence Were Jews

We will be hearing a lot in the next couple of weeks about the “Nakba” and how hundreds of thousands of Arabs became refugees.

Olmert on the Way Out?

Olmert on the Way Out?

Could this be the end of the line for Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert?
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert on Sunday said he would not let a new police investigation into his conduct prevent him from doing his job – his first public comments on an affair that has threatened to further weaken him politically as he [...]

Gillerman on Carter

You should know by now that when Israeli UN Ambassador Dan Gillerman opens his mouth, he invariably makes sense and sounds good in doing so.
Here’s his latest:
Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations called former President Jimmy Carter “a bigot” for meeting with the leader of the militant Hamas movement in Syria.
Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize [...]

On Syria and the Golan

Syria has confirmed that Israel’s Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has said Israel is willing to cede the Golan Heights in return for peace with Damascus.
Given my blood pressure at the moment, I am not sure I will be able to express my disdain for Olmet and this foolish act articulately enough. So I’ll quote Knesset [...]
