On the Moral Midgetry of Christopher Hitchens
Iran throw their support behind Sunni Jihadists? You are a moron Mr. Hitchens. A bona fide moron. My best advice? Go get some knowledge. http://carmenisacat.blogspot.com/ This month on Carmen is a Cat: Anniversary of the Defeat of Israel and its Allies During the next few weeks I would like to revive the posts I made during the ...

Did we do anything?
According to your article, we've bought off the enemy, the sunnis were way ahead of the surge, in other words, we failed, but dumb luck is hiding that. As to Mullen's statements - it's not about flyovers for Israel - they can't do it alone unless they do a multiple wave strike. They want us to do it for them, because of our stealth planes and ...

Iran’s Missiles and the coming Mid-East War
Displaying its usual tin ear for news, the targets the MSM most often mention are Israel, U.S. troops in Iraq, and Europe. The ones that should take note of Iran’s missiles are the Sunni Arabs or almost all of the Middle East. The U.S. overthrow of Saddam and installation of the Iran friendly Shia in Iraq has drastically changed a Middle East ...

The state of Israel has a glorious future.
It is for good reason that 2000 years ago, the Talmud acknowledged that, after the destruction of the Jewish temple in Jerusalem, prophecy was taken from the prophets and was given to children and fools. As a kindness, I'll assume that Christopher Hitchens is being ingenuous when he asks; ''Can Israel Survive for Another 60 years?'' And while ...

WHY SOME RELIGIOUS PEOPLE DO NOT VOTE
Another Christian organization that teaches its members and prospective members to stay out of active politics such as the act of voting is the Philadelphian Church of God. That is the church that has continued the kind of work of the original Church of God, funded in the Philadelphian Era by Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong. As they have written ...

Who supports Democracy?
It is insane to call the Lebanese political system democratic, as it not only divides power among sectarian lines but those divisions are not equal to those sects' share of the population. All political decisions are made in backroom deals by the same few changing casts of characters, with the occaisonal addition of some one's son. No wonder ...

terror tour of israel
an interesting article. Last year, when a guard was checking my bag before I went into the post office, he asked me for a piece of gum he saw in the bag. Of course I said ''sure.'' an interesting aside.( I live in the ''safe''center of Israel.) a couple of years ago, when I was going into the US embassy, or consulate,in Tel Aviv, they asked ...

How Bush Defines Obama and Himself
Recently Pres. Bush said in the Israel Parliament: “Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along,” he said, without referring to Obama by name. “We have heard this foolish delusion before.” And then, the president dropped the bombshell – ...

Can Israel Survive 4 Another 60 years?
You forget nother ''categories'' of Jewish people who don't care...or wish they didn't have to..... Israel is, after all, a FOREIGN COUNTRY, if one does not live there. I know, I know....everyone in the USA has an ''old country''....so why not be proud of Israel being your ''old country'' if you are Jewish? One good reason is, there is no other ...

History calls for a One-State Solution
I support what is often referred to as the One-State Solution (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binational_solution), whereby Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza become a unified secular state, with everybody equal citizens under law. It is not currently a popular solution, but I think that it is the only one that will produce stability in the long ...
