Anyone who understands Jewish law understands that what God commanded the Jews to do in the Bible does not justify what Israel is doing in Gaza. The only people who really believe otherwise are Evangelical Christian supremacists, and it’s antisemitic.
When someone tells me that they’re OK with fascism, I listen.
The “60 Minutes” May 3 story about the 2014 Gaza War, “The Lesson of War”, was rife with implicit falsehoods, lies of commission and omission, and false moral equivalences, it painted an astoundingly inaccurate picture, thereby doing a grave disservice to listeners and to the cause of peace.
The Iran deal is in the best interests of the U.S. and Israel. Learn the facts, form an educated opinion, and contact your senators and representatives!
I find it necessary to yet again write in protest of your sloppy coverage of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

I know there’s probably no point, but I finally snapped and dished some truth to some Israel haters in my Facebook feed. What finally set me off was this comment: “I find it inescapable that the Israelis took Palestine from the folks who were living there in 1946. Out of that injustice springs the current… Read More »
Recently, I wrote about BNY Mellon’s inept handling of 2010 1099-OIDs for Israel bonds, my relief that the State of Israel had decided to replace BNY Mellon with Computershare as the fiscal agent for Israel Bonds purchased in the U.S., and my hope that Computershare would be better than BNY Mellon.
