Hanania’s column contains errors Ray Hanania’s July 4 column contained several serious errors. The fence being built between Israel and the West Bank to protect Israelis from terrorists has nothing to do with Gaza and nothing to do with the death of Rachel Corrie. Such an enormous error shows severe ignorance on the part of […]

From 1997 to 1998, John Dubrow got to know the World Trade Center fairly well. He made many paintings from a high vantage point on the 91st floor in a temporary studio granted him by the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council.

Although I usually refrain from writing about personal affairs in this column, I am taking this opportunity to write about the significance of that moment for me, as I believe it has significance to all […]

What I’ve just gotta know is, in the mad rush for peace, did anybody bother to read the thing? Well, I did. I perused the approximately three hundred and fifty words, and not one of them is positive or even alludes to peace or hope. Don’t believe me? Read the little defected gem of a […]

A Survey of Week #9: June 24, 2003 – June 30, 2003 BACKGROUND: On June 24, 2002, President Bush set forth the conditions that the Palestinian Arabs must fulfill in order to merit U.S. support for the creation of a Palestinian Arab state.
