I have not been able to recover from the terrorist attack in Beslan. Terrorism is not the enemy. Terrorism is a tactic of the enemy. Who, then, is the enemy that fights all those who identify with the civilized world — the world in which children and their mothers are cherished and protected, even in […]

Democratic Presidential nominee John Kerrys newly appointed Middle East advisor, Martin Indyk, has been working for years to garner American support for Yasser Arafat and his terrorist regime. As the Middle East Advisor to the Clinton administration, Indyk managed to help Arafat wrest complete control over the Palestinian people through deceit and subterfuge. And now, […]

A series of lethal terrorist hit Israel on the first day of Sukkot, claiming the lives of two toddlers, two soldiers and a woman.
