In the series “Postcards from Israel,” Ari Bussel and Norma Zager invite readers throughout the world to join them as they present reports from Israel as seen by two sets of eyes: Bussel’s on the ground, Zager’s counterpoint from home.

Will God Turn Off All The Lights of The World?

If the human race is racing anywhere, it is backwards at warp speed. In an effort to lighten the mood of this Postcard, and I can't imagine even the great Mel Brooks or Carl Reiner could achieve that considering the subject matter, I will add a jok

No One Follows The Laws Anymore?

This failure to obey or respect law and order is not exclusively a local, statewide or even national phenom. It is also flagrantly practiced on the international scene.

Gilad Shalit’s Exchange Good for Evil

So many, including Ari, are incensed about Israel's deal to retrieve Gilad Shalit. Somehow I am not, for I do not see any equality between human life and that of a sub-human species.

Will Gilad Shalit Return Safely to His Homeland, His Home and...

Stop caring more about political correctness than human life. War is war and it kills people. Whether or not you call someone a terrorist does not change the fact they are.

Is There Hope for Unified Jewish Presence in The World?

That there is hope for a unified Jewish presence in the world can only be accomplished through enormous faith, for logic and life experience have not served us well.

The Abuse Excuse

'Why did they kill little Bobby Franks? Not for money, not for spite, not for hate. They killed him as they might kill a spider or a fly, for the experience. They killed him because they were made that way.

Israel Must Stand Up and Take Note of Enemy!

Calling them out may end in battle, but ignoring them will end in annihilation. Not just for Israel, but all the good in the world.

The Buck Stops Here

Few Americans haven't seen a line of baby ducks following the Mama duck across the street. This picture also includes a line of cars stopped on both sides to allow the ducks safe passage. I, too, stop for ducks.

We Must All Excel in The New Age of Insanity

The Ark: Most Popular Focus of Religious Mysticism

I'm going out on a limb here. There is a great deal of chatter about giving Jerusalem to the Palestinians to appease the world. Everyone has an opinion, one way or another, and most are political, some ideological, many religious.

Jewish People Smart Enough to Know One Thing About ‘Insane One-World...

Just like at the United Nations, any time humanity unites, it cannot be a good thing for the Jews. The U.N.'s anti Semitic policies prove this theory beyond all doubt. It seems the only uniting factor for mankind is a dislike of the Jews.
