The Miracle of Regathering

The Jewish prophet Ezekiel wrote of the future return of his people to their ancestral homeland 2500 years ago. It is a true miracle that the Jewish people who have suffered exile, persecution, forced assimilation and near annihilation have not only survived, but regathered into their eternal homeland. This blog is intended to stir hearts and minds to contemplate the importance of this modern miracle and to generate dialogue about current cultural, geopolitical and spiritual issues that impact us ALL.

The Middle East Problem in a Nutshell

I have been a fan of Dennis Prager for a long time.  I have rarely met a person who has the combined virtues of being very Jewish, very spiritual and VERY CONSERVATIVE!!!!  Although I don't always agree with Dennis' positions, he has a superb way of simplifying some very multifaceted topics.  In this particular presentation, he succinctly and eloquently describes the seemingly complex Arab-Israeli conflict with great aplomb.  Of course, we must add to his treatise the layer of hatred between the children of Ishmael and Esau towards those of Isaac and Jacob that has persisted for millennia as icing on his simple recipe.  Nevertheless, it is a good deconstruction of the long-standing conflict.  Enjoy!

The BBC, Liberal Media & Anti-Semitism

When the media in the West provides "unbiased" reporting, is it really?   This expose by CAMERA on the BBC portrayal of the "plight" of Arabs in East Jerusalem clearly outlines the typical antisemitic and anti-Zionist propaganda that is common to Liberal Western media outlets.  Like the contrast between MSNBC & CNN with Fox News in the US, the BBC can be contrasted with Sky News in Great Britain as an unrivaled source of skewed propaganda.  Of course, it is common knowledge that no commercial news channel, liberal, conservative or otherwise, provides unbiased reporting...which is a shame.  Today, it is not the truth that motivates the presentation of news, it is what sells.

Please watch the video.  Your comments and feedback are appreciated.
