Get a load of this gem in the AP. In a story about Jordanian police preventing the smuggling of ancient scrolls out of Jordan, we read: Ziad al-Saad says the manuscripts were reportedly found by a Bedouin. He says the … Continue reading
Two states, side by side, living in peace. Yeah. Right.
Once again, the Palestinians have proven how eager they are to live in peace with their Jewish neighbors. (Once again, the AP proves its bias.) A Palestinian policeman opened fire Sunday at a group of Israelis who had come to … Continue reading

No, really, Islam is tolerant of other religions: Indonesian police found a 330-pound bomb underneath a gas line near a church. Think of the extra deviousness of placing the bomb next to a gas line. The death toll during this … Continue reading

Passover briefs
Nothing works quite like bullying and blackmail: The “Quartet,” which includes the U.S., says that if Netanyahu doesn’t come up with a peace plan, they may just recognize a Palestinian state without a deal. Say, that’s a great idea. Ask … Continue reading
Happy Passover
A happy Passover to all of my Jewish readers. Chag Sameach! I hope your Seders are fun, interesting, filled with tasty food, and not so long that you wind up hungry again by the end. I’m at a friend’s house … Continue reading
Targeting Jews in America
The explosion that was a bomb, then was a “freak accident” is now a bomb again—and the FBI has a suspect. And he seems to be Jewish. Wonderful. The FBI said evidence found near the scene of an explosion Thursday … Continue reading
The titleless Monday briefs (now with title!)

Friday news briefs
That’s funny, I thought this was a war crime: Phosphorous shells only count when Israel uses them in Palestinian territories. When the Palestinians fire them into Israel, well, then they’re just desserts, or something. Israel helps Japan: Israel is sending … Continue reading
Why I hate politics from the pulpit

The power of the Jew-haters
