Another writer for the New York Times, one who had accrued numerous accolades, resigned after having signed her second petition staking out a political position. As the NYT itself reported below, its Magazine writer Jazmine Hughes decided to resign from the paper after discussions with management. (She would have been fired had she not left.) […]

In Bill Maher’s monologue this week, he gets serious about the war, going back in history and showing how the ethnic constitution of countries change drastically over time, how colonization is pervasive, and how ethnic cleansing has affected the Jews more than any other people (see his enlightening chart at 2:25). Those who are pro-Palestinian […]

The failure of Western “Liberals and Leftists” to hold the Arabs to the same moral and ethical standards as Israel is a “example of old colonialist and racist habits. They don’t see in the Arabs moral equals.” – Michael Walzer (1982) I think that most of the arguing and fighting over land and religion should […]

A very interesting development reported today by Barak Ravid of Axios (in a Twitter thread) shows some further evolution of the relationship between Israel’s security cabinet (an inner team of ministers with grounding in law) and the “war cabinet” that was set up as part of the process of bringing some (former) opposition parties into […]

An interesting post by one “Diogenes” on the recent ceasefire in Gaza that occurred for about a week until Hamas made a terrorist attack inside Israel, Was the Ceasefire Worth It? The question is worth asking because there was much criticism of both Israel and the USA over allowing this ceasefire to occur; the primary […]

Given his (qualified) support for Israel in their cage fight against Hamas I had wondered over the last few weeks if Chris was feeling the pressure from the New Left who hate Israel and have grown to outnumber he and his kind here in New Zealand over the last couple of decades. I noticed that […]
