Written by Marty Roberts on January 25, 2011 – 12:14 pm -

It’s sometimes very hard to tell…

Radio Show/Podcast!!!

Listen to the show…

Friend or Foe?

The American people have always overwhelmingly supported one of their closest allies, Israel, but, all too often, American government policy does not seem to bear this out…

Two cases in point recently were highlighted in the media…

Rosen and Weissman...Two Ruined Lives

Rosen and Weissman...Two Ruined Lives

The FBI’s unfounded pursuit and subsequent failed prosecution of AIPAC’s Steve Rosen…

The Alarming Rise of Anti-Semitism in the U.S. and Around the World…

Written by Marty Roberts on August 12, 2010 – 1:32 pm -

G-d’s Method of Encouraging Aliyah Immigration to Israel?…

Anti-Zionism=Anti-Semitism

Anti-Zionism=Anti-Semitism

The anti-semitic attacks continue to rise…vandalism, assault, bombs, verbal abuse…

Oliver Stone

Oliver Stone


People are not afraid to verbalize their Jew-hatred in the grandest, most public of forums…minimal criticism…zero outrage…as emphasized by Oliver Stone’s recent Sunday Times interview…

What is this about? What is the reason? Is their a Divine purpose, or are humans just repugnant creatures?

Marty Roberts offers some ideas that may upset you…

Also…It’s “go-into-the-army season” in Israel…

Some interesting stories…

Cpl Elinor Joseph

Cpl Elinor Joseph

Like Corporal Elinor Joseph…Israel’s First female Arab combat soldier…

She’s Christian, but an Arab, all the same…

And military service in the Israeli Army for soldiers with “special needs”….

The IDF is the world’s most humane fighting force, without a doubt…

Ex-Pink Floyd Rock Has-Been Roger Waters is Appearing in Israel

Written by Marty Roberts on August 4, 2010 – 11:23 am -


…He managed to squeeze some Israel-bashing and vandalism into his hectic tour schedule…

Not to mention tying up half of the country’s road traffic for the better part of a day…He defaced Israel’s security barrier, while slinging ill-advised slurs to the media as to the justness of its existence, and held his concert in an out-of-the-way hamlet to appease his anti-Israel home crowd contingency…

Welcome to Israel, Roger…Now, please, GO HOME and don’t bother to come back!…

Also…Hebrew takes the USA by storm…A university BA program given in Hebrew at Fairleigh Dickinson University…

What do you mean, “The real enemies of the Palestinians are the terrorists”?????????????????

Well, they are also Israel and the Jews’ worst enemies, so how about defeating them with the Israeli Army that you are now in command of, OK?

Kassam Missile – Destination: Sderot, Israel

Kassam Missile - Destination: Sderot

The INTENT is to kill and maim innocent people…

G-d continues to protect us…

Doesn’t the intent of the palestinian enemies count for anything?

Will it only matter if, G-d forbid, they succeed?

Kassam Missiles Over Sderot

Kassam Missiles Over Sderot

The high school kids in Sderot thought that they were going to be facing a difficult test…

Little did they know just HOW difficult…

Good thing that most of them were still praying in the adjacent classroom…

G-d answered their prayers (again)…
