http://jewishworldreview.com/cols/thomas111312.php3 “The color of the world is changing day by day.” — “Les Miserables,” the musical A look at the electoral map indicates the Republican Party won in square miles. Unfortunately for them, electoral votes, not landmass, won President Obama a second term. Analysis from the Center for Responsive Politics estimated that total spending on […]

FRANK GAFFNEY: ON BENGHAZIGATE

http://www.jewishworldreview.com/cols/gaffney111312.php3?printer_friendly In Washington, when the official line seems improbable, people often say, “It doesn’t pass the smell test.” There’s a lot that stinks at the moment about the Benghazigate affair, including now the circumstances involving the forced resignation of a man in the middle of it: President Obama’s CIA Director and former four-star Army General […]

Lee Kaplan: Freedom House Still Doggedly Libelling Israel

http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3450/freedom-house-libelling-israel Using at best no research, and at worst venomous research, Freedom House chooses to honor the libel which emerges against Israel primarily from the same totalitarian countries Freedom House would have it believe it scrutinizes. Freedom House, once a reliable guardian of protecting freedom and human rights, continues to slander Israel based on false […]

MY SAY: DAVID ISAAC’S INCREDIBLE WORK IN HIS SERIES ZIONISM 101…..MUST SEE

Dear Member:

A new video has gone up.

Part three of Course 2: “Origins of Zionism” is now available.

You can see it directly via the following link:

http://zionism101.org/NewestVideo.aspx

Or log in at www.zionism101.org

Part 3: “Modern Zionism” chronicles the rise of the modern secular movement to restore Jewish sovereignty to the Land of Israel.

As Theodor Herzl said to a Berlin audience in 1898:

“We must not abandon our people to an uncertain future. We must see to it that they can live in safety. Look upon this movement as one which is committed to the general welfare, which wishes to serve the poor, is inimical to no one, and can bring a measure of relief to all mankind.”

We encourage you to share information about “Zionism 101” with your friends, family, and co-workers, plus anyone else who is interested in learning about the most important development in modern Jewish history.

If you haven’t already, please watch our completed video series on the founding fathers, including Theodor Herzl, Chaim Weizmann, David Ben-Gurion and Vladimir Jabotinsky.

We welcome questions and comments.

Sincerely,

David Isaac
Executive Director

Petraeus’ briefing raises questions about motive

Petraeus’ briefing raises questions about motive

[David] Petraeus, once talked about as presidential timber, played a big part in the administration’s misleading narrative surrounding the murder of four Americans in Benghazi, Libya.

That we now know he was under investigation by the FBI for an affair and a security breach when he told congressional leaders that the attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others was a spontaneous reaction to an anti-Muslim video adds a level of intrigue that is extraordinary even for the spooky world of the CIA.

Before that briefing, the State Department had evidence that the attack was carried out by an al Qaeda offshoot, a fact that led some members of Congress to suggest Petraeus was parroting the White House political line. His confession of the affair and the FBI probe give that suggestion new meaning because he could have had an ulterior motive for being a team player.

Israel Haters Invade Wheaton College Posted By Ryan Mauro

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/ryan-mauro/israel-haters-invade-wheaton-college/print/ Evangelist Billy Graham told Christians to base their vote on supporting Israel, yet anti-Israel activists held a “24 Hour Middle East Leadership Briefing” at a center named after him at Wheaton College on November 8-9. The irony should serve as a reminder that evangelical support for Israel cannot be taken for granted and must […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE JEWISH AND POST JEWISH VOTE

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/dgreenfield/the-jewish-and-post-jewish-vote/print/ Last Shabbat I sat at a table in my local synagogue while a group of men argued over the election. They weren’t arguing over who they should vote for, they were arguing over just how bad Obama was, their voices rising and falling as they named one detail after another. They weren’t necessarily Republicans, […]

JED BABBIN: THE PETRAEUS AFFAIR

http://spectator.org/archives/2012/11/12/the-petraeus-affair It’s such a cliché. A powerful man, away from home for years at a time, in jobs that put him under enormous emotional strain. A younger woman, attached to him by her job, spending endless hours with him on and off duty. That they fell into a love affair is so ordinary as to […]

BRUCE THORNTON: EXPLAINING THE DEMOCRATS’ SUCCESS AND THE DYSFUNCTIONS OF DEMOCRACY ****

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/bruce-thornton/the-democrats-success-and-the-dysfunctions-of-democracy/print/ The election post-mortem has identified all manner of causes for the Republicans’ defeat, from the “woman problem” and the “Hispanic problem,” as Peggy Noonan put it, to Romney’s fatcat persona and his inept campaign. But there’s a simpler reason, one consistent with the critics of democracy starting in ancient Athens––Obama and the Democrats promised […]

BRIDGET JOHNSON: SENATE INTEL PANEL TO PROBE WHY CONGRESS WAS NOT TOLD ABOUT PETRAEUS INVESTIGATION

http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2012/11/11/senate-intelligence-panel-to-probe-why-congress-wasnt-told-about-petraeus-investigation/?singlepage=true The chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee said that the timeline of the FBI’s investigation into the Petraeus emails in relation to campaign season “doesn’t add up.” “First of all, I’m wondering — excuse me, how a — something about emails went to the level of the FBI, how the FBI could have […]
