…It seems the latest, murderous temper tantrum of our homicidal Muslim neighbors has abated. Again, as in 2014, we hit them hard and eventually they cried uncle. They never cry “Peace!” They cry Hudna! meaning “Cease-fire!”

They stop and lick their wounds and will lie low again until the next outburst. I wonder what a study of the periodicity of these bloody outbursts might reveal. Maybe there is some kind of internal clock-like mechanism like that found in a 17 year-cicada which could help us predict the next eruption…

…Fortunately, the good news in the bad, was the response of parties that never responded like this, and one suspects the coming of Donald Trump has had an effect. The UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process — such a lengthy title for a man who does nothing because there is no peace process — Nikolai Mladenov, the second time in recent weeks ,issued a statement shocking in its implicit siding with Israel! He said today, “It is unacceptable to indiscriminately fire at civilian communities. I am deeply concerned by today’s rockets fired by Palestinian militants towards southern Israel one of which hit close to a kindergarten. Such actions undermine efforts to improve the situation in Gaza.”

Likewise, the EU ambassador in Israel, one Emanuele Giaufret, also called the rocket volleys “as kids were preparing form school unacceptable and to be condemned unreservedly.”

I believe the major powers in Europe also condemned the rocket strikes…

…In Tovah Lazaroff’s third paragraph we read of a reaction by an Arab Muslim whom she called the “PA Foreign Minister Riyad Malki.”

The “PA Foreign Minister”? This implies he is the foreign minister of a state. Does the Jerusalem Post recognize that state, the State of Balestine? The PA Foreign Minister means the foreign minister of the Palestinian Authority, but that is not a state. In New York and Jersey the Port Authority of New York manages bridges, tunnels the port and bus stations but it is an authority not a state. If The Jerusalem Post thinks Riyad Malki is a foreign minister, it presumptively recognizes the State of Balestine. This what the Israelis have done to themselves over the last half-century” they have gone along with the antisemitic fairy tale of there being a “Palestinian” people here with the identical right to an independent that the Jews have, which of course could not be more anti-Jewish in conception. Jews have believed, and the world has agreed, that the Holy Land, a.k.a. Palestine was the land of the Jews, but they were driven country and afterwards no other people claimed it was their ancestral homeland. And this is why into the 19th century Eretz Yisrael was a barren wasteland. This is predicted in the Five Books, and so it was. Without the Jews, this land became desert. There were no Palestinians…

…In any case, Roth repeatedly rejected the description of himself as American Jewish novelist and he was absolutely right. He was an American novelist who wrote of Americans of Jewish-ancestry who, like himself, did not live a Jewish life. And in truth he never wrote on Jewish thought.

Versus, say, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks who comments on the Five Books. That’s a Jewish writer writing on Jewish thought and values.
Philip Roth wrote of post-War American life via these post-religious Jews and he was right that he was no Jewish writer, and like all such popular novelists will be forgotten for the society he lived in will be no more. His work will not speak to the ages.

Versus the immortal Torah, the Book of Books, which Jews have been reading and re-reading every week for thousands of years.
Roth’s Portnoy was replete with sexual obsession and an awareness of Sigmund Freud, fashionable in this period. The entire book is, after all, nothing but a stand-up comedian’s monologue done lying down on a psychoanalyst’s couch.

It was a book for its time but surely will not speak to the ages, for Roth’s people are those who strayed from left the path of the Jews. This was his audience, Americans like himself of Jewish parentage but not Jews, existentially, like himself…

…Two weeks ago today, President Trump delivered that punch-in-the-nose speech to Obama, Kerry and their friends in Iran cancelling their evil handiwork.

And yesterday the new, 70th Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced America’s demands for peaceful relations with Iran, 12 of them, like the 12 Tribes of Israel, in a list that gladdened hearts in Israel as evidence that President Trump really means it when he declares his determination to defang this Islamic gargoyle of a regime Iran. The 12 demands are each one a potentially fatal blow to what this regime represents, versus the Europeans who do not care if Iran builds the atomic bomb the mullahs joke about dropping on Tel-Aviv. They are running around today trying to figure out how to perpetuate their commercial relations with this generation’s successor state to Germany’s Third Reich…

…Last webcast on Tuesday, the day after sixty Muslims were expelled from Israel to Muslim paradise and the world had a conniption fit over us out of control murderers of innocent civilians for no apparent other than the Jews’ innate sadistic cruelty and hatred of gentiles, I took note of the preliminary score for the day, only one Arab had to be destroyed like a diseased, undomesticated jackass infected with a rabies-like spirit driving it to attack and kill people, and people want to know why; all of a sudden such quiet…

…I find it fascinating how these Muslims think, how they reason. We warn them not to approach the barrier. They do, we shoot as we said we would, and the narrative emerges that our soldiers shot and killed innocent people, peaceful protestors, with no mention of their aggression, of their firing lethal projectiles at our soldiers inside our own country. The narrative in the minds of these intellectually stunted Muslims overlooks Muslim aggression, chapter one of the story, and begins always in Chapter 2 with the Jews killing Arabs as if at random…

…The IDF has now invented a response to these arsonists’ fire kites by sending against them model robot planes with knives on their wings to cut the tails on the kites and make them fall. One report said scores have already been brought down. I wonder.

In any case, the barbarians are planning on disrupting our celebrations today and tomorrow when the American Embassy in Jerusalem is opened. These violent Hamites are promising major violence. Their goal is to open a breach in the Gaza barrier to allow hundreds of them, even thousands to pour into the nearby Jewish communities and act out their ancient behavior of the murder, rape and mutilation of Jews as in Hevron in 1929…

…So my hopes were more than fulfilled when the President spoke. I want to read over the text some point because I cannot remember a speech in which every sentence was a bullet into the heart of what Obama and Kerry did. I was literally elated. I feel as if I were floating, I had been elevated a few millimeters due to some mysterious force. It was also like waking up after an eight-year long nightmare. G-d bless Donald Trump, one of whose greatest virtues is his isolation from the political correct lunacy of his generation…

…So I, like John Kerry, opposed the war but what he did was disgusting. His staged, media event of throwing his medals over the White House fence was a shameless bid for instant fame.

But what was far worse was his testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. This was on April 22, 1971 during which he reported on stories he had heard in his months in Viet Nam from combat of soldiers who “personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, tape wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the country side of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country.”

This betrayal of his comrades in arms here is breath-taking. If John Kerry were on the KGB payroll as a enemy agent in America, he could not have been more obnoxious in his smearing of his fellow Americans in uniform with these satanic accusations of subcivilized barbarism…

…The next day, Mahmoud Abbas spoke the following three sentences, “I condemn the Holocaust, which was the most heinous crime in human history. If anyone, especially of the Jewish religion, was insulted by what I told the Palestinian National Council, I apologize to them. I would like assure everyone that it was not my intention to do so and to reiterate my full respect for the Jewish faith as well as other monotheistic faiths.”

Same m.o./modus operandi. “I would assure everyone” and then respects the Jewish faith but also other monotheistic faiths. Singling out Jewishness is something he cannot do.

This is another manifestation of the bromides we hear on International Holocaust Remembrance Day when governments issue statements condemning not only antisemitism but an ever-growing number of groups with a gripe. The victims of not only antisemitism but racism, sexism, homophobia, islamophobia, transphobia.

Facing the enormity of antisemitism in isolation is something the world as yet to come to grips with…

…Jewishness was already fourteen centuries old when Christianity entered the stage of history. Then another seven centuries had to pass before Islam imposed monotheism on the sons of Ishmael who had been idolaters.

In other words, Jewishness was two thousand years ahead of Islam, its plagiarized shadow religion, and that fact may account for the performance on Monday in Ramallah by Mahmoud Abbas displaying, and not for the first time, an I.Q. far below the average person in the Judeo-Christian West. That was the top story in Israel today.

Imagine in your mind a bi-lingual book, Hebrew on one page, its Arabic translation facing on the other and see two different minds at work. The Hebrew letters are distinct. Even without knowing the Hebrew alphabet let alone the language, one can see each letter is distinct, squarish, unadorned verticals and horizontals.

Versus the facing page of Arabic, all cursive and linked, graceful, artistic, arabesque. These are two different minds at work. And what we heard last Monday out of Ramallah was the thinking of a man who might score in the high 300s on an American SAT Verbal Aptitude Test. This is not the brightest bulb in the chandelier of Ancient Palestinian thinkers…

…The Prime Minister of Israel was an outstanding commando in the IDF and he has no illusions like those of the Left, that an enemy like Iran can be placated. As Churchill was hated by the appeasers, so in Israel Bibi is hated by the fashionable Left which includes, it may surprise, former heads of security agencies, like the GSS, the Army, and the Mossad. In Israel they all have been of men of the Left and not at all hardline right-wingers.

So prime minister put on another performance in which he exhibited knowledge and understanding of nuclear technology and the individuals leading the enemy. His haters insist that he did not provide any evidence the Iranians have violated what they agreed to in 2015, but that was not the point of the presentation. It was to prove that when the Iranians in 2015 denied they ever had a nuclear bomb project, they were lying. And if they were lying in 2015 but since then have behaved themselves, so what? Like Yaakov working for seven years to win Rachel as his bride, so the Muslim theologians in Iran running the regime are content to wait another 7 years and then they will be able to drop an atomic bomb on the State of Israel, G-d forbid, and another one on the US in an EMP strike. They say the electromagnetic pulse of one small atomic bomb properly exploded high in the atmosphere above the center of the US could cripple all electrical devices country-wide…
