It was a hard day to be a Jew

It was a hard day to be a Jew
My Mother used to say, “If you do not have anything nice to say, then shut up.” Moms are sometimes blunt. I am a Jew by choice. My religion gives me a place in the world and for me, a personal understanding of a Higher Power. Yesterday, it brought me pain, because of ugly things... Read more »

How nice that the USA rolls out the red carpet for the number one supporter of terrorism in the world.

How nice that the USA rolls out the red carpet for the number one supporter of terrorism in the world.
Here is a pop quiz: some of you may remember two airplanes slamming into the World Trade Center, one hit the Pentagon, and a fourth crashing in the countryside in rural Pennsylvania, on September 11, 2001. Here is the question: who were the 9/11 hijackers that attacked America and killed thousands of innocent people? I... Read more »

Donald Trump has changed the once proud GOP into the Manson Family of politics

Donald Trump has changed the once proud GOP into the Manson Family of politics
Donald Trump doesn’t have a base. Like Charles Manson, he has a cult of personality that is oblivious to crimes, lies, and Trump’s childish behavior. It wasn’t just a quip when candidate Trump said he could walk out on 5th Avenue in New York and, “shoot somebody” and not lose a vote. He was serious,... Read more »

I dread the anniversary of 9/11

I dread the anniversary of 9/11
I dread it because people use the anniversary to rekindle hate. Today is the 16th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center, The Pentagon, and a United Airlines plane crash in rural Pennsylvania. The greatest loss of life was in New York as two fuel laden planes slammed into the twin towers of the... Read more »

Donald Trump embarrasses the USA and insults the Mayor of London (again)

Donald Trump embarrasses the USA and insults the Mayor of London (again)
Fox News, or is that Faux News, teamed up with Donald Trump to insult an ally, who was the victim of another terror attack that took innocent lives.  Shortly after the attack, President Trump put out the tweet above. Did he get is information from a State Department Briefing?  Maybe the CIA briefed the President... Read more »

Is there a case for killing Kim Jong-Un?

Is there a case for killing Kim Jong-Un?
The pudgy guy with bad hair is causing problems in the World.  No, I don’t mean President Trump, I mean Kim Jong-Un. He has brought America to the brink of war.  Poking a bear with a stick usually has had good results for North Korea in the past.  American Diplomats were fast to negotiate a... Read more »

Terror on Westminster Bridge

Terror on Westminster Bridge
Our hearts and prayers go out to the people of England as they sit stunned by the events that unfolded on Westminster Bridge today.  In the shadow of Parliament, a car plowed into pedestrians, killing two and injuring others before striking a guardrail.  Another assailant approached Parliament and stabbed a police officer to death before...

The hypocrisy of Orlando

The hypocrisy of Orlando
LGBT, go back to being invisible, that was the message yesterday from the Republican and Democratic Parties. Within 36 hours, the horror of Orlando had nothing to do with being homosexual, nothing to do with terrorism, nothing to do with ISIS, what happened in Orlando was a gun issue. That’s the way kooky Washington reads... Read more »

Turn off the hate machine

Turn off the hate machine
Go to social media, and you will find the America that terrorist Omar Mateen viewed: bigotry, anger, intolerance, self-centered behavior, hatred, radicalism, violence and fear and as a country, and a nation with little or no empathy. In short, a place with not much in the way of morals filled with hate and loathing. We... Read more »
