Writing about Israel
I would like to take a moment to point my readers to two of the most reliable sources on Israel that I’ve discovered during my many years of blogging about Israel. There are many, many people who I read, and … Continue reading
The Gaza flotilla: It’s really about Israel
The new, improved Gaza Flotilla—which includes more anti-Israel fools than you can shake a lulav at—doesn’t care that the Rafah crossing is going to be opened. They’re going anyway. “We shall set sail, we have many surprises in store,” IHH … Continue reading
Fact-checking the AP fact-check on Bibi’s speech
Oh, Josef, Josef, Josef. You know I read the AP regularly. Why would you even tempt me? NETANYAHU: “You don’t need to send American troops to Israel. We defend ourselves.” THE FACTS: Israel is a leading recipient of American foreign … Continue reading

The mysterious Justin Bieber tattoo
I think I understand now why the U.K. is so anti-Zionist. It’s filled with morons who don’t even know what Hebrew looks like when they see it on a teen pop star’s side. The caption of the bigger picture (at … Continue reading

Rafah crossing: Open, closed, it’s still Israel’s fault
Egypt says it’s going to open the Rafah crossing into Gaza. The AP still manages to slam Israel for having a horrible, awful, punishing blockade on the sweet, innocent Gazans, whose only crime appears to be breathing in the space … Continue reading

God save us from the queen
I would like to state, plainly and equivocally, that I do not give a rat’s ass that Barack Obama, the democratically-elected President of the United States of America, effed up a toast to the queen of England, who was chosen … Continue reading

Really, Friedman’s just embarrassing now
If you read Tom Friedman, you have to wonder: Does he know how idiotic he sounds? I’m thinking not. May I suggest a Tahrir Square alternative? Announce that every Friday from today forward will be “Peace Day,” and have thousands … Continue reading

The new narrative on Israel
The AP has gone overboard in its pro-Palestinian slant in this piece of drek. Palestinian UN bid enters unknown territory President Barack Obama threw down a gauntlet this weekend: no vote at the United Nations, he asserted, would ever create … Continue reading

Looks like the assholes at Move Over AIPAC don’t want their email address scraped by spambots. Oops. Pass it on. (This is why I don’t write for, oh, Commentary. Unlike Omri, I can’t stamp out my tendency to be evil.)

Your Monday news roundup
Pray for the people of Joplin: Horrible. A tornado has killed at least 89 people, and the count will certainly go higher as the missing become known to be killed. Breaking British law: Come and get me, if you can. … Continue reading

Obama and the Middle East reset
The discussion over the Obama reference to the 1967 lines (a.k.a. the 1949 Armistice Lines) is missing the point. Obama’s defense of what he said at AIPAC today is also beside the point. The fact that other presidents and Israeli … Continue reading

Live-blogging Obama at AIPAC
I will be live-blogging the speech. We’re in the preliminaries right now, and one of the thoughts that crossed my mind was, gee, Israel’s enemies are really hating on AIPAC at this moment. 10:24: I think “Better together” is a … Continue reading
