We saw this post about a man and his caddy and received permission to share it here on Israel Blogger. Guest Blogger: Andy Monfried “Beware of this guy, something ain’t right about him.” We were walking up the Fairway at hole #4. I was walking next to him when …
There are days when your mind is filled with reflections on all there is around you. Today was such a day. Once again, I find myself struggling not to respond to certain posts by certain people on certain topics that certainly are offensive and wrong. Fighting inner feelings that don’t …
In truth, there is evil in this world. In many forms. With many agendas. Worse, in some ways, are those who partner with evil. Even worse, in some ways, are those who are silent in the face of evil. Tomorrow, we go to the polls to vote for the path Israel will take in the next few years. Among the candidates are those who I believe to be evil, those to who I believe partner with evil and those who are silent or have been silent.
With all the anglos in the city, no one thought it important enough to say, “hey, George is coming to the city. We really want to make sign welcoming him. Any chance we could run the text by you?”
An isolated space such as this would seem ideal. Pristine. Deserted. Peaceful. Green and filled with growth. But as I painted it, my mind shifted to a second set of descriptive words. Private. Alone. Solitary. And in this post, I explain why all of that is the polar opposite of Israel.

One cannot pretend to fight terrorism if you limit it to white supremacists while ignoring the threat and hatred and incitement that comes out of the Islamic world too.
Introducing, Barrett Outdoor Communications, a company located in Connecticut that leases advertising space. Apparently, Barrett’s owner deems himself something of an expert in what is happening here in this part of the world. Enough of an expert, is the owner of Barrett Outdoor Communications, that he feels it acceptable to promote …
Indeed it is time to speak out. While I regularly post on Facebook, I have not written a blog post in (literally) months. It is not for lack of desire. The problem has been that with so much going on, there was too much (is too much) to write about, …
Very recently, a dear friend of mine directed me to an interview on “60 Minutes” between Michael Wallace and self-proclaimed messiah of the black peoples on a global scale, Louis Farrakhan. Taking into consideration that this was screened about 23 years ago, I have always known that Farrakhan was one …
For some reason as I read this post over and over, the word that comes to mind is fundamental. Obviously, we must not ignore the fundamental facts in Jewish history. Each day, almost every day, the media reports a new incident, a new attack, a new desecration. Listen, my heart …
