I work in a religious neighborhood not too far from the central bus station in Jerusalem. Many people from my office head to the ultra-orthodox supermarket across the street to pick up some lunch or dinner. The store is called “Zol Po” in Hebrew, meaning “cheap here”. You wouldn’t really be able to tell the [...]
The wickedly funny british comedian Sacha Baron Cohen aka Ali G nearly got his head blown off by two guys in the adjacent room who commited suicide. Read about it here and here.
The BBC caught red-handed. Take a look at this article on the BBC website. One would think that the top photograph that accompanies the article would be recent. Not so. The photograph was obviously taken months earlier. First of all, it’s been freezing here all week. The way the people are dressed in the photograph [...]
The differences between Likud and Labor party have been virtually indistinguishable for the past couple of years. Now that Labor has released their new platform things have changed a bit. They have suddenly taken a hard left turn.
The new platform includes:
- Negotiating with the Palestinians while continuing to fight terror
Huh? Who are they referring [...]
Another moron.
Dudu Topaz. The undisputed king of Israeli television has done it again. Topaz will do anything to get ratings. He is a ratings whore.

Some say that Labor [...]
So it seems that the Labor party primary wasn’t quite as clean as we initially thought.
The Jerusalem Post is reporting that three ballot boxes from the primary weren’t counted and that the votes would have changed the outcome of the list. Perhaps Beilin and Dayan jumped ship too soon?
Of course the leadership’s response to [...]
Will the allegations and the arrests affect the outcome of next month’s elections?
The students at Blich High School don’t think so. Every year a traditional straw poll is held at Blich High School in Ramat Gan. In the past, their results have been very close to the actual outcome of the real national elections.
The [...]
So once again the Jews ruined Christmas for the Palestinian people. Arafat won’t be allowed to celebrate with his Christian brothers in Bethlehem. Arafat couldn’t be happier with the turn out. There is a reason he hasn’t left his Mukata compound in almost a year. He knows the second he leaves, the IDF is going [...]
You are the weakest link – Now get the hell out of my government!
Not only are our politicians corrupt – they are dumb too.
Israel has its very own version of the quiz show, The Weakest Link. A couple of nights ago there was an episode featuring politicians. I occasionally watch the British version here [...]
the view from here was really beautiful tonight.
We just spent the last half hour sitting on our porch watching the Geminid meteor shower. It’s nice living outside the city. No bright lights to ruin the view. I wish I were Chewbacca and was flying through the galaxy in the Millennium Falcon.
To my North [...]
