Written by Marty Roberts on September 1, 2010 – 9:29 am -Just what exactly are we celebrating when we light the Chanukkah candles and spin the dreidle?

David BenGurion is SURELY Rolling Over in His Grave Right Now
Written by Marty Roberts on September 1, 2010 – 9:23 am -After Israeli Prime Minister Olmert announced his planned surrender to the palestinian enemies of the Jewish People, It’s no small wonder
David Ben Gurion stood for the exact opposite of what Israel’s current leadership represents…Jewish pride, strength and deterrence…Not the appeasement and surrender of Olmert and Co…
Also…What does Israel’s military think of these ideas?…How about Avigdor Lieberman, who happens to be sitting in the government with Olmert…And what about our supposed “peace partners” in the Palestinian Authority…Surprisingly not surprising…

Acting Prime Minister of Israel Ehud Olmert is Dividing Jerusalem
Written by Marty Roberts on August 31, 2010 – 8:40 am -
By allowing palestinian authority elections to take place in Israel’s capital city, he is caving in to demands to re-divide the Holy City…He is tacitly accepting the claims of those that would take our heritage from the Jewish People…Does he have the right or the authority?…
Also…Socialism versus capitalism…This is the battle for the soul of Israel’s economy…Bibi Netanyahu versus Amir Peretz…What are the implications of the outcome?…
Plus…What is left of the Israeli government?…
All this and MORE…

The Goodness of The Jewish Soul: – Is THIS the reason Jews sometimes act weird?
Written by Marty Roberts on August 25, 2010 – 8:13 am -Is THIS the reason that we so often act contrary to the interests of our own people?
Maybe It’s NOT Just Self-Hatred – But the inherent Goodness of The Jewish Soul…
Do we see our enemies as being like ourselves,
even when nothing could be further from the truth?…

Israeli Arab Treason On the Floor of Israel’s Parliament
Written by Marty Roberts on August 24, 2010 – 8:07 am -The price of democracy?…I don’t think so
They are being brought before the parliamentary ethics committee, but maybe they should be brought before a military court, tried, and then hang them when they are found guilty!…
Also…The people of Israel are staying strong behind the war effort against Hizbullah…In spite of PM Ehud Olmert’s running-off-at-the-mouth…
And…It’s clear that we must not repeat the tragic mistakes of retreat and turning abandoned territory over to terrorist enemies of Israel…Why doesn’t Olmert realize this?…What will it take?…Golda Meir knew this, as her words speak to us today as if she were still here with us…Comments from a listener in England…
