Israel is an apartheid state(?)

May 4, 2012

This is the war cry one hears unanswered on most college campuses; this is the damning claim of many vociferous non-governmental bodies. Racist Israel, discriminatory Zionists, imperialistic Jews – the mantra of almost all related Mideast and Arab websites, the repetitive agenda of all Jihadist organizations and regimes. Everyone seems to agree.

Most claim it has not started, others say Israel will not survive without it: democracy, equality, fraternity – all demand it! This revolution is indeed quite simple – it invites all of Israel’s youth to contribute to society, be a part of the countries’ evolution and to equally share the burden of “Tikkun Olam”, the [...]

America is nothing if not a nation of immigrants.  They are out lifeblood, our essential energy.  We have a perfect right, nay an obligation to secure our border.

God created the universe. Fine. Largely logical and eminently reasonable. Man however invented words, which by definition exist only in the subjective recesses of human existence; every meaning, all implications, therefore, are relative.

Last year it was Israel’s intransigence – building apartments in greater Jerusalem and in their settlements in the West Bank – that was to blame for the lack of Mid-East peace. This year, it is all about Israel’s refusal to accept “1967 borders,” originally an armistice line

The Grand Coalition

August 19, 2010

From leftist radicals and boycotting unions to Osama Bin Laden and his ilk—the call is the same: “Israel – get out of Gaza”. Ironically the so-called occupation ended 5 years ago when Israel removed every last soldier and Jewish resident from within Gaza’s border.

Recently, James Lindsay and Ray Takeyah – two well-known foreign policy centrists and, at least in the case of Mr. Takeyah, a full-blown Iran expert – took to the establishment pages of Foreign Affairs and the Washington Post op-ed page to (finally) warn against the clear nuclear and hegemonic ambitions of Iran. Subsequently, Mr. Stephen [...]

Changing tacks following Turkey’s thus-far unsuccessful bid for EU membership, it seems that Turkey’s Prime Minister Erdogan is bidding for the leadership of the Muslim World instead. He reportedly bank-rolled the terrorist-associated IHH in buying the lead ship for breaking Israel’s blockage of Gaza, and certainly facilitated the inclusion, without passports and security checks, of [...]

A seemingly unbridgeable divide remains between American liberalism – borne of contemporary, “turn-the-other-cheek” Christianity – and archetypal reap-what-you-sow Judaism. It’s strange – for almost 2,000 years the Church persecuted Jews for being different. Yet we now hear calls from many (though, by no means, all) of our country’s Christian corners for understanding, love, kindness and [...]

To the Editor: By pointing to Islam’s respect for law, peaceful co-existence and human rights, Dr. Gomaa elegantly answers the West’s preoccupation with the question “Where are the [Islamic] moderates?” A number of questions loom, however. First and foremost: has this important statement been published widely in Arabic? I doubt it
