  • Too Old? Think Not - Give him a choice then....

    Any Nazi that took part in the killing of innocents should have to pay the penalty for what they did. He got to live his life. The Italians or the Jews that were killed and anyone who tried to hide those the Nazi's were after were shown no mercy. They were only guilty of being human beings born of a particular race or having compassion enough to ...

  • Free Speech means able to criticize anything, anywhere

    whether it means religion, holocaust or foods. Unfortunately we have come a long way from there.

  • Re: When Herb Bisno Cleaned My clock

    I want to add to my previous post, ''When Herb Bisno Cleaned My Clock''. First, some personal history. I am a non-observant Jew. My only year in Hebrew School coincided with the founding of the State of Israel in 1948. As I was precocious when it came to politics, my entire political life has coincided with the existence of Israel. I have ...

  • When Herb Bisno Cleaned My clock

This was January, 1968, six months after Israel’s six day war in June, 1967. I was an Assistant Professor at SUNY Stony Brook. One of my closest friends was Hugo d”Alarcao, an ...

  • 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 ...

  • A new holocaust? LMAO!

    Hmm, so the country with enough nukes to end all human life in Middle East is under threat of annihilation? From whom? The military might of shattered Lebanon? The skeleton crew army of Egypt which has a peace treaty with Israel? Oh right, Iran. Yeah they're that stupid to send a bomb and get nuked. Sure. What a silly response to a serious issue. ...

  • Toujours Israel

    Nice, mature-soudning, well-modulated, intellectual-sounding tone doesn't make for truth or even for rational analysis. The value of reading this type of article is finding out - mirabile dictu - what new excuse they've come up with to justify the US having lashed itself to the Israeli state. Now apparently it's ''a Second Holocaust''. But ...
