My Beloved Zion
Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "My Beloved Zion."Zionism is a tree on the river’s edge,
A shield for our people, through ages of dread.
It’s the ancient homeland, settled anew,
Where deserts bloom, and skies turn blue.
Zionism is G-d’s promise fulfilled,
The land of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob still.

The TikTok Candidate
Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "The TikTok Candidate."In short, Vice President Harris, who everyone thought was worse than even President Biden and had the lowest net negative ratings of any vice president in history, has now, six weeks later, magically been transformed into arguably a leading candidate for the next president of the United States.
Essentially, she is the TikTok candidate, where the entire purpose of her statements, apparently all scripted, is superficial and solely to generate "hits," buzz, and votes. In fact, her website is blatantly devoid of policy and only has a place for asking for donations. Thus, instead of policy aims for our country, we are given at best platitudes and smirky, sarcastic lines from followers like "it depends on the context."

As an electorate, we must demand more of our candidates than to be glamorous and look the part. Glitz without substance is worthless!

Israel Can Prevail Over Iran
Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called "Israel Can Prevail Over Iran."
Certainly, Iran is a large country and a formidable enemy, and together with its terrorist proxies (Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, and the Houthis), have done some significant damage to Israeli society. Therefore, we are all poised on the precipice of escalating confrontation between the two parties.
Given Israel's incredible finesse at undermining and outmaneuvering its Iranian enemies, what is Iran going to do?
Some say that Iran is a crazy "irrational actor" and is bent on destroying Israel no matter what.
But thinking about this strategically, Iran is weaker than it appears and there are at least five reasons that it should restrain itself from any further escalation with Israel.
