Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
I attended a very large pro-Israel rally at the Israeli Consulate in Los Angeles today. Numerus blocks were closed off. First thing, whatever the media reports, there were more people there than they claim. To my untrained eye, there appeared to be many thousands. The crowd was tightly packed for blocks. There

Continue readingYesterday, White House officials were telling Jake Tapper that Obama would support Israel. Any minute moments of hope I cherished that the administration actually meant what it said were swiftly dashed. This is Obama’s version of support: The Obama administration considers Israel’s blockade of Gaza to be untenable and plans

Continue readingIsrael made a tactical error in defending a direct assault on her legal blockade. The blockade, incidentally, does nothing to prevent Gaza from importing food, fuel, and all the other necessities and luxuries of ordinary, non-terrorist life. Instead, the blockade’s purpose is to prevent Gaza from importing massive amounts of

I’ll show them here, followed by the IDF’s narrative, which the IDF included with the YouTube footage. This video narrative begins yesterday, when the IDF

How else can one explain that they continue to support him despite things like this: Washington’s unprecedented backing for a UN
Continue readingA few days ago, I mentioned Robin of Berkeley’s American Thinker piece about the two different types of Jews in America: the kind who are reflexively liberal and reflexively pro-Israel, and the kind who are reflexively Leftist and reflexively hostile to Israel. Robin’s point was that the former do not

Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe Neither Data nor Mr. Spock, two relentlessly logical creations, could ever be liberals or Democrats or Progressives, or whatever the Hell else they’re calling themselves nowadays. (For convenience, I’ll just lump

Evelyn Gordon takes a look at the new “proximity” talks between Israel and the Palestinians, talks that no one expects to yield any results. After all, the predicate is that the Obama

Iranian strategy has been to move its missile assets

The administration of President Barack Obama has launched what officials termed a psychological warfare campaign meant to topple Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. Sources
