Chaos in Syria. Israeli Security Nightmare or Opportunity?

Dec 02 2024 7 mins  
The Syrian civil war first broke out in 2011 and has since left hundreds of thousands dead and millions more displaced. You might not know much about it because there’s been no outcry against Assad’s brutality in the ivory towers of American universities because the blame can’t be squarely laid at the feet of the Jews. Israel has largely stayed out of the conflict besides pro

Nov 10 2024 4 mins

Oct 07 2024 7 mins  
“Nobody Wants This” is a show about a rabbi who gets bored with his long time Jewish girlfriend and begins pursuing a relationship with a “shiksa” podcaster he meets at a dinner party. Shiksa is a Yiddish word for a non-Jewish woman. No Jewish people my age that I know use this word, but from watching the show, you’d think Jews use it every other sentence.All the Jewish w

Enough is Enough... Israel Reshapes the Middle East

Bibi made a visit to the UN, and just like his speech to Congress, the people who really needed to hear it protested by skipping it or walking out. I thought it was a great speech, but my favorite part was when he called the UN a “house of darkness” and “swamp of antisemitic bile.” That’s the truth, and people tend to dislike truth tellers.Here’s the full speech below.
