My thoughts, assertions and observations on issues important to me as a Jew, a Zionist, a Revenant in Yesha and as an inquisitive human being.
About Me
- YMedad
- Shiloh, Benjamin District, Samaria, Israel
- American born, my wife and I moved to Israel in 1970. We have lived at Shiloh together with our family since 1981. I was in the Betar youth movement in the US and UK. I have worked as a political aide to Members of Knesset and a Minister during 1981-1994, lectured at the Academy for National Studies 1977-1994, was director of Israel's Media Watch 1995-2000 and currently, I work at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center in Jerusalem. I was a guest media columnist on media affairs for The Jerusalem Post, op-ed contributor to various journals and for six years had a weekly media show on Arutz 7 radio. I serve as an unofficial spokesperson for the Jewish Communities in Judea & Samaria.

Look, as an endangered minority I understand that realpolitik demands that we snuggle up with whomever will snuggle up with us, but among ourselves - beineinu - tzuvishin unzereh - can we let go of praising Randian objectivism, laissez faire capitalism, I'm-not-my-brother's-keeper(ism), the abrogation of the Tenth Commandment K'lo hayah, etc.? I mean, though we may have fine practical reasons for questioning many of the 'means' of those on the socioeconomic left, do we really have to go so far as to mock their desired 'ends'?
Rachmanim B'nei Rachmanim who will do all in their power to ensure that no one gets a free lunch without having to beg for it? Ribbonoi shel oilum! The American Right may accidentally happen to be the non-antisemites in our world and it could be that in public we should kiss their pigs and pronounce them kosher but when we stop shuddering at having to do so we soon find ourselves in a na'ases k'hetersituation where we're being metaher the tamei and having yeshayah shout ceaselessly at us (on yom kippur at least) HACHAZEH YIHIYEH TZOM AVCHAREIHU?!?!
