Unhappy Tisha B'Av..



Some of my readers may not be Jewish or particularly religious, but today marks the day on the Jewish calendar when the Jewish Temple was destroyed... TWICE. It's been a dark day for Jews everywhere. One of my Facebook acquaintances actually lost his father last night. It's considered a very unlucky day for us. Some may not realize the wall that people pray at in Jerusalem was the western wall of the last Temple. Some may not realize that Jews pray in the direction of the wall. The Mosque in Jerusalem that Muslims make a fuss about was built basically on the site of where the Temple had stood. Today is a day of mourning for the loss of our Temple TWICE.

Recently, proof was actually found that Babylonians had destroyed Jerusalem which the NY Post published.

OP-ED: My Experience at the Rally Against Pro-Terror Anti-Semite Linda "Cockroach" Sarsour

Because I have been following politics, I heard about Linda Sarsour from a non-Jewish source. Tomi Lahren interviewed John Guandolo about Sarsour . I think it was back in January. I heard that she was tied to Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood. I knew that wasn't good for me, as a Jew. I occasionally heard her name come up again. Then one day I was looking through these political articles I read and there it was like a punch in the stomach. She had been elevated to unearned commencement speaker by my own CUNY. I graduated from a CUNY school. I live in New York City. "Here? Here? Not here!" I found myself saying sitting in front of my computer. I watched to see when my fellow moderate right wingers would be speaking up. I was ready to sign a petition, go to a protest. I was ready. Eventually, a protest was announced. I thought, "I'm sure it's on Saturday and I can't go." I looked at the calendar and got very excited, "A Thursday-YES." It did...

The Rally Against Pro-Terror Anti-Semite Linda Sarsour

Last Thursday, May 25th, a midtown east block was overtaken by a rally and two counter-protests. The primary event was a rally hoping to get CUNY to change their mind about the key-note invitation to Hijabi Muslim activist Linda Sarsour, who is said have ties to terrorist groups like Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. The two counter-protest groups were the Neturei Karta and the “NO!” group. The rally was organized by activist Pamela Geller, president of American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI).  She also served as the presenter to the speakers for the event. The first speaker was NYS assemblyman Dov Hikind. Hikind is an Orthodox Jew and Zionist whose district is located in predominantly Hasidic Orthodox Boro Park, Brooklyn. The next speaker was John Guandolo whose knowledge about Sharia and Islam comes from a military and law enforcement background. Egyptian-born, Nonie Darwish passionately spoke about how she escaped Sharia. When she said she did not want to live unde...
