A couple of articles pertinent to the ‘Jewish Israeli-American Rift’, and pivoting on liberal American-Jewish/Democrat Trumpophobia, appeared in Israel haYom yesterday (2019.02.19): one by an insider Jewish-American diplomat, Elliott Abrams (Are American Jews disenchanted with Israel?), and the other by a Belgian-Australian Israeli Jew, Isi Leibler (The disintegration of American Jewry). These articles should both…
The consensus of practically every analyst and commentator is that Israel’s political parties are arraying themselves upon either of two bases: a coalition based on the Ultra-Orthodox Khareidim or a coalition based on the Arab parties. So there you are, standing on a land-mine. The ultimate dilemma: if you step off, boom! If you stand…
What party wins most votes in election is not the determinant of the next government! At most, Likud is presently likely to obtain 32 seats – 29 seats short of the necessary control of the 120-seat K’nesset. So, the “winning” party immediately discovers that it has won nothing at all other than the first try…
Latest Update (correction/clarification) 2019.02.14 Why? The Answer! I read and contemplate, therefore I exist as a sentient. My 5 senses perceive external influences upon me. Since nothing in my perceived universe exists without a cause, there is an Extra-universe Prime Cause; a Creator-Singularity, of both me and my perceived universe. This Extra-universe Prime Cause is…

Dearborn, MI Racist Democrat Mayor Silences Factual Free Speech I call on President Trump to step in and enforce the First Amendment against a brazen and blatantly racist, misojudaic, silencing of factual free speech by Dearborn, Michigan Democrat Mayor John B. O’Reilly, and the The Dearborn Historical Museum Commission who voted to call on the…
All of the parashot shavua have been available in NQ (The Netzarim Quarter, our website at http://www.netzarim.co.il) for a long time. You can, and should, read the current week every week. This year, the BTS parashot are complete through Tᵊrumah – and I may be able to complete and upload Tᵊtzauweh (Tetzaveh) as well this…
There’s wide agreement that Israel’s political situation is an indisputable symptom of a broken system. Suggested solutions then fan out in all directions, none getting much traction. The main cause of the breakdown is the plethora of parties that splinter Israel’s voting Middle, resulting in inordinate rule by the strict-discipline radical religious parties: the tail…
Parashat Mishpatim Coming up last Shabat in 5779.11 (first Shabat in 2019.02). Most complicated subject matter to format (material covers 7 years, arranged by Shemitah years). It’s been a long siege getting this one done. Hope yall enjoy it and learn. To review, these Bible stories are a parental syllabus. Written at a parental, science-friendly,…
Civilizations’ 3 Primary “New Years”: Winter, Spring Or Autumn?

“Soul” is the English perception of the Hebrew nëphꞋësh. From America to Europe and across the globe, we’re seeing an unprecedented, historical avalanche of “snowflake” humanzees unequipped and unable to cope with life without the aid of drugs, resort to crime or ending it all for as many as possible as a final act. There’s…
The μάγοι (Magi; ancient astronomer-astrologer scientists) were from Persia (modern Iran). Following a star in the east, would have led the Magi east – to the coast of China near Shanghai looking out at the South China Sea / Pacific Ocean, not to Israel! The account in Lu. 2:8 describes shepherds leading their flocks in…
According to Tōr•âhꞋ, assimilation is unacceptable. But, Rōsh ha–Shân•âhꞋ is the assimilation of Babylonian autumn celebration of the birthday / New Year of Marduk! (Originalist – Nᵊtzâr•imꞋ – Jews celebrate Y ōm Tᵊrū•âhꞋ.) That’s millennia worse than celebrating xmas! Yiddish is simply German-corrupted / assimilated bastardization of Hebrew. And, it turns out, what today’s Jews…
“Thwarting” tunnel incursions provides no deterrence against continued tunneling efforts by Jihadists. That’s an invitation to our enemies to continue pursuing their violations of our borders at a minimal price – or no cost at all! Border intrusions by Jihadist terrorists via tunnels underground are no less a border violation than border intrusions by Jihadist…
