Israel, ‘Palestine,’ and the Law Of War (First of two parts) For the moment, at least, a state of Palestine does not exist. Historically, of course, such a country has never existed. Nonetheless, current supporters of Palestinian statehood (sometimes Jews as well as Arabs) have discovered substantial practical benefit in persistently referring to Israel and […]

Rising health care costs demolish Obama’s pledge ABC News Tuesday, September 25, 2012 News Two new independent studies of health insurance premiums and health care spending indicate both are rising at an accelerated pace, despite President Obama’s 2008 promise to contain those costs and his pledge that his health care legislation would reduce premiums.

http://www.rightsidenews.com/2012092417093/us/homeland-security/the-basics-of-war-and-how-the-us-went-wrong.html In view of the public frustration with a decade of largely unsuccessful U.S. war in Iraq and Afghanistan and the impending cuts to the U.S. military budget, there is an active debate at present as to what military strategy and force structure should be fashioned for the future. Unfortunately, many taxpayers and most politicians […]
Hypocrisy & Danger: Apologizing for Offense to Muslims In recent days, the whole world has witnessed the spectacle of the Obama Administration from President Barack Obama down apologizing for the fact that some Americans exercised their right of free speech to make a video, ‘Innocence of Muslims,’ that offended Muslims. “Hateful,” “offensive,” “reprehensible,” and “disgusting” […]
http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2012/09/25/obama_to_un_crude_and_disgusting_video_sparked_outrage/print During his address to the United Nations today in New York City, President Obama again blamed violent Islamic riots in the Middle East on a video….six times. In every country, there are those who find different religious beliefs threatening; in every culture, those who love freedom for themselves must ask how much they are […]

The President continues to offer up apologies….When tolerance becomes a one way street it leads to cultural suicide…
In his speech today to the United Nations, President Obama stated six times that the attacks across the Islamic world are attributed to a silly video. Furthermore, he refused to use the words terrorist attack in referring to what occurred in Benghazi Libya at our US Consulate on the 11th anniversary of 9-11. He continues to offer up apologies instead of defending our hard earned First Amendment right to freedom of speech and expression. There is no message to this silly video trailer, and it is beneath the dignity and esteem of the Office of the President of the United States to mention it at all. When tolerance becomes a one way street it leads to cultural suicide. I shall not be tolerant of the intolerant. I know about the UN Resolution 1618 which would make any statement deemed by the Organization of Islamic Countries (OIC) “offensive’ to Islam a crime…..NOT ON MY WATCH FELLAS!
My statement to the United Nations would have been, “The future does not belong to those who attack our Embassies and Consulates and kill our Ambassadors. The Angel of Death in the form of an American Bald Eagle will visit you and wreak havoc and destruction upon your existence”
http://pjmedia.com/andrewmccarthy/2012/09/25/fleeting-moment-of-spring-fever-clarity/ Don’t get me wrong, I’m as appalled as anyone that an American president who ran off to a Vegas fundraiser while the country was still mourning an ambassador and three other Americans killed in Libya is so insouciant that he’d follow that up by referring to the ongoing atrocities in the Middle East as […]
In observance of Yom Kippur there will be no postings tomorrow.
At sunset this evening Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) will commence. We the Jewish people pray and repent and reflect on who will be written in the “Book of Life” and who in the “Book of Death”, as well as “who will rest and who will wander, who will live in harmony and who will be harried … who will be degraded and who will be exalted.”
We should also reflect on Yom Kippur of 1973:
As Jews throughout the world were fasting and praying The combined forces of Arab/Moslem Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Algeria, Libya, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Tunisia launched a surprise attack against Israel. Over one million troops against a nation whose sole crime was that it is a Jewish nation.
After terrible losses, 3,000 dead and an equal number injured, Israel regained its footing and won the war, which is when all the harpies in the United Nations and in our State Department shrieked for a cease fire. They are forever condemned to eternal degradation.
To all Israel’s friends and supporters who buck the prevailing political correctness and stand with Israel and the Jewish people, we will pray that you be inscribed in The Book of Life….may you rest and live in harmony.

Hillary needs to take blame for Libya debacle
Fox News
Monday, September 24, 2012
Commentary
Remember that Hillary Clinton ad in the 2008 presidential campaign, about who we would want answering that phone call to the Oval Office at 3 a.m.? Now we can assume she would answer the same way she’s handled this Libyan debacle: with weakness, prevarication, and stunning misjudgment. Read more…
