The typical Israeli response to Hamas murders has been surgical strikes in Gaza that are designed to kill particular terrorists and destroy particular sites…usually rocket launching sites or tunnel entrances. It was in essence a tit-for-tat policy that has allowed Hamas to entrench itself in Gaza and create a huge and complex network of tunnels…

The Morning Rant
The careful and infuriating lie that the Western media tell us is that Hamas does not speak for the Gazans; that they are held captive by a few fanatics, and just want to live their lives without the savage Jew-hate that Hamas embraces. It’s nonsense, and a cursory reading of recent history will demonstrate that…

Here is a spectacularly stupid idea, and as usual, one of our profoundly arrogant and stupid elites is behind it. Their conceit — which increases geometrically with their wealth — is that because they were good at some narrowly focused thing like designing widgets or stealing computer operating systems, they are also marvelous at…everything else!…

The framers of The United States Constitution and The Bill Of Rights were well aware of the necessity of an armed populace. Their focus was of course on the defense of the people against tyranny, although the concept of a common defense — independent of a standing army (which was viewed with some suspicion) —…
Proportionality…Fairness…Whatever You Want To Call It Rearing Its Ugly And Anti-Semitic Head
Big bad Israel, with its high-tech weaponry and space-age air force and missile subs and satellites is the bully of the Middle East! Those poor, poor Palestinians who just want to go about their business and live in peace are no match for Israel. That’s why they have to resort to decapitating babies and murdering…

The grift is axiomatic in the halls of Congress! The difference between the situation in Ukraine and the situation in Israel is obvious. Ukraine is in a messy border dispute with its very large neighbor. The “war” will go on for years unless Russia figures out how to finish it, but it is more of…

That is an iconic photo of Israeli paratroopers at the newly liberated western wall of the Temple Mount, on which the Temple (Beit Hamikdash) stood. It was the second temple, built to replace the first, called Solomon’s Temple which was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BCE. The second Temple was destroyed by the Romans…

Race baiting has become ubiquitous…so much so that it seems to be click-bait more than anything even remotely substantive. And the most integrated part of our country…sports…isn’t immune to it. Wait…did I say “integrated?” Whoops! That’s not correct. Whites and Asians are woefully underrepresented in some professional sports, and yet there is no national conversation…
Religions Provide Moral Guidance; “Spirituality” Doesn’t, And It Is Pretty Obvious!
Saying “namaste” and drinking herbal tea does not make one “spiritual,” but it is one hell of a lot easier than actually going to church or synagogue and reading the bible and trying to follow the tenets of one’s religion. And more important…it provides cover for the charge that the Democrat/progressive cabal is furiously working…
The Morning Rant
The text of the 2nd Amendment of the United States Constitution is in clear English, and for anyone who bothers to pay attention to the grammar, it is a robust defense of our God-given, natural rights to self defense and defense against tyranny. The great question of our day is whether that right can be…
