http://israelmybeloved.com/about_us/show/iczc In the magazine Israel Today (July 29, 2013) my friend Ryan Jones wrote about the renewal of the so-called peace negotiations that have just been held in Washington DC. It is truly remarkable and, at the same time, deeply disturbing, that those who have believed in this notion – that there is any […]

A Clue to Obama’s Post-POTUS Career Move? Two prominent articles in the Wall Street Journal of 20-21 July beg to be connected. One is Sohrab Ahmari’s shrewd and unsettling interview with ex-senator Jon Kyl about the potential threat to American sovereignty posed by the transnational legal movement modeled on the European Union and its wonderful “progressive” […]
http://communities.washingtontimes.com/neighborhood/novelists-view-world/2013/jul/31/losing-israel-peace-peace/ NEW YORK, July 31, 2013 — The latest from John Kerry is that the current “peace process” between the Israelis and the Palestinians will be “difficult” – and so it has been from one secretary of state to another, and from one Israeli prime minister to the next, up to Benjamin Netanyahu. The Israelis […]
Hillary to Receive “Patriot” Award in Ronald Reagan Building for “Defending Our Nation”

Clinton will receive the American Patriot Award from the National Defense University Foundation at a gala dinner on Nov. 14. The award is given to “leaders who have strengthened America’s strategic interests and advanced global security,” according to a press release.
“As First Lady, Senator, and Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton tirelessly worked to support and defend our nation and our allies around the world,” said Al Zimmerman, chairman of the NDU Foundation Board of Directors, in the release.
So what exactly did What Difference Does It Make do to support and defend our nation and allies?
She worked for an administration that tanked two wars, started a third that got four Americans killed and forced the French to invade Mali. That administration also helped overthrow pro-American governments and replace them with Islamist regimes.
It cut health care for the military, fired countless military personnel and tied the hands of soldiers in the field leading to unprecedented casualties in Afghanistan. Hillary’s contribution to that conflict involved apologizing to Pakistan.
Hillary Clinton has nothing in common with past honorees who were usually in the military or closely involved in military affairs.
http://frontpagemag.com/2013/matthew-vadum/murder-and-double-standards/print/ Few Americans outside of Knoxville, Tenn., know about the case of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom, two young people who were kidnapped, savagely assaulted, raped, and murdered by people of a different race. If Christian and Newsom had been black, and they had been raped, tortured, and murdered by a group of white people, […]
http://frontpagemag.com/2013/davidhornik/peace-is-not-at-hand/ American-sponsored Israeli-Palestinian peace talks—or perhaps, talks supposedly leading up to peace talks—are on for today in Washington. A last-minute hitch was cleared up. Last week Israel’s international relations minister Yuval Steinitz had announced that Israel had agreed to a Palestinian demand and would, in the course of the talks, be freeing 84 Palestinian security […]
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jul/30/eliot-spitzer-anthony-weiner-i-wouldnt-vote-him/
Former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, who left his office in 2008 amid a prostitution scandal, said on Monday that even he wouldn’t vote for sexting scandal-plagued Anthony Weiner, who’s trying to mount a political comeback to the mayor’s office.
Mr. Spitzer further added that others shouldn’t vote for Mr. Weiner, either.
MSNBC’s Chris Matthews raised the issue, asking Mr. Spitzer on his Monday broadcast: “You’re not going to vote for Anthony Weiner, can you just say that now? You don’t think he should be mayor of New York?”
Mr. Spitzer’s response: “Fair point. That is correct.”
Mr. Matthews then said, CNN reported: “He should not be mayor of New York then?”
And Mr. Spitzer again replied, “That is correct.”
CNN reported that Mr. Spitzer — who’s running for New York City comptroller — also made clear that public employees caught sexting on public equipment, or during work hours, should be fired. And for that, his Democratic opponent labeled him a hypocrite.
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jul/30/homeland-security-loses-track-of-1-million-foreign/ The Homeland Security Department has lost track of more than 1 million people who it knows arrived in the U.S. but who it cannot prove left the country, according to an audit Tuesday that also found the department probably won’t meet its own goals for deploying an entry-exit system. The findings were revealed as […]
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jul/31/a-soap-opera-for-hillary/
Hillary Clinton has lived her life in a soap opera, and now NBC will make one about her. The writers of NBC’s projected four-part miniseries have lots to work with. Bubba and his loose zipper could have been the inspiration for Anthony Weiner, though Mr. Weiner was never accused of rape and has violated only the law of common sense.
The lead role goes to Diane Lane, a contributor to far-left causes, such as MoveOn.org, and an Oscar nominee for her role in “Unfaithful.” Experience is the best teacher, and Hillary learned a lot living with a faithless zipper in the White House. “The script will begin with [Mrs.] Clinton living in the White House,” says an NBC spokesman, “as her husband is serving the second of his two terms as president.” To avoid an X-rating, the writers will have to make up a lot of stuff.
The Clintons are said to be livid about the comparisons to Anthony Weiner, but Huma Abedin, the Weiner missus, dined in Washington Monday night with Phillippe Reines, Hillary’s press spokesman, at the fashionable Chinese restaurant Meiwah, and if they met to talk about the script, they had similar tales to talk about. Earlier in the day, Hillary lunched at the White House with President Obama, a lunch described as “mostly social,” with no spicy Szechuan or Hunan dishes. The corporate suits at Comcast, which owns NBC and MSNBC, say their miniseries is only about attracting viewers and making money, not politics. Tying the series to the 2016 elections is only about “event programming.” Indeed.
