Why the U.S. Embassy Move to Jerusalem is a Good Thing for the Civilized World

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: May 14, 2018

Do you remember how the left told us that anti-Semitism was resurgent in America because of President Trump’s election? Funny how the left always projects its own ideological pathologies on Conservatives.

Israel Takes it to Iran in Syria

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: May 10, 2018

Benjamin Netanyahu’s relationship with Vladimir Putin is unusually complex. However, within the layers of political and military considerations is, on Putin’s side, a little known personal connection. When Putin was a child he had a grade school teacher who made a huge impression on him. She took an interest in little Putin and encouraged him […]

Bring Iran’s Economy to its Knees

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: May 9, 2018

Will sanctions alone bring down the IslamoNazis of Iran? I doubt it. But it’s worth trying. And then, when sanctions fail, Israel should attack with their extremely capable air force and flatten all Iranian nuclear sites. Remember, Israel eliminated the nuclear programs of Iraq and Syria. Of course, the international community wagged their collective finger […]

Cops Are the Good Guys

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: April 16, 2018

Are cops perfect? Of course not. And no one should expect them to be. But every single day, under the most difficult conditions, the police protect us from the bad guys. In other words, they do their job and they do it well. Former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke makes it very clear: cops […]

Eye for an Eye: One of the Greatest Ideas in History

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: April 2, 2018

Nowadays, many people, particularly those living in Western civilization, no longer regard their society as morally superior to any other. In this video, Dennis Prager lays out how this view does not spring from intellectual rigor, but from intellectual laziness.

Blacks in Power Don’t Empower Blacks

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: March 26, 2018

Between 1970 and 2012, the number of black elected officials rose from fewer than 1,500 to more than 10,000. How has this affected the black community? Jason Riley of The Manhattan Institute answers the question in this video.

D.C. City Council Member Claims Jews Run the Federal Government

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: March 21, 2018

From Obama to the Democrat Black Caucus to IslamoNazi Keith Ellison to Louis Farrakhan to the leaders of the Women’s March, the Democrat part is legitimizing Jew-hatred. Washington, D.C. Council member Trayon White Sr. (D.) was condemned in the past week after he claimed Jews were responsible for “climate manipulation” in the nation’s capital, and a newly uncovered […]

Dear Celebrities: No One Cares What You Think

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: March 5, 2018

We adulate celebrities so much, it’s no wonder they’re under the impression that we care about their political opinions. The truth is, we don’t. In this video, Candace Owens, Director of Urban Development for Turning Point USA, lets unaware celebs in on the reality: no one cares what they think.

Rabbi Chaplain Abraham Avrech, Fourth Yahrtzeit

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: February 28, 2018

My father, Rabbi Chaplain Abraham Avrech, z’l, passed away on March 15, 2014, which the Jewish calendar translates into the 13th of Adar. Thus, last night — Jewish holidays begin after sundown — commenced the fourth Yahrzeit, memorial, without my father’s physical presence in this world. My father was 94 years old. He is gone, but […]

Jews and Guns

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: February 27, 2018

I am republishing this entry, with some edits, because after the Parkland atrocity—a massive failure of local and federal government and law enforcement at every level—the antigun hysteria of the left, with their photogenic high school commissars in the vanguard, presents a danger to the Second Amendment. Make no mistake about it; the left plans to […]

Mass Shootings: What America Can Learn From Israel

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: February 20, 2018

The after-shooting ritual is in full bloom. One side screams at the other—and no one hears anything. Before getting to the article about Israel and the value of the armed citizen, I want to point out that asking the government to solve the problem of mass shootings is both impractical and dangerously utopian. The problem […]

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: February 19, 2018

American Media Cheers Stalinist Propaganda at the Olympics

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: February 13, 2018

Ever since President Trump won the election the left has been spreading the dopey fantasy that America is now living in The Handmaid’s Tale. A world where regiments of red clad women live at the whim of a totalitarian state. The recent film, a turgid piece of left wing propaganda (based on a clunky novel […]

Who Will Google Silence Next?

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: February 12, 2018

Google and YouTube dominate internet search with over 75% of the market. If you disappear on Google, your ability to voice your opinion disappears too. PragerU is an educational non-profit that has had over 40 of their videos restricted by YouTube. That’s why they have recently filed a lawsuit against the tech giant. This is […]

Facebook Disappears Israel As “Country” Option, Includes IslamoNazi Non-Country ‘Palestine’…

By Robert J. Avrech | Published: February 5, 2018

Karen and I are proud that our cousin, Assemblyman Dov Hikind (he has a D after his name, but in fact he’s a solid Conservative) stands up to Jew-hatred and Jew-Haters at every opportunity. Dov is now calling attention to the fact that Facebook has decided that the Jewish State does not exist. Presumably, […]

About Me
Robert J. Avrech
Los Angeles, California
I'm an Emmy Award winning screenwriter. I'm also an observant Jew, a religious Zionist, a conservative Republican, and a member of the NRA. I've been writing and producing in Hollywood for over twenty-five years. But the focus of my life is my family: my radiant wife, Karen—with whom I have been in love with since I was nine years-old—and my two daughters, who, thankfully, look like Karen. Not too long ago, we had three children. But our son, Ariel, died at the age of twenty-two from cancer. We miss him terribly. We think about him practically every minute of every day. People tell us that time heals, but Karen and I know this is not true. Time grinds away doing its terrible work. Ariel is gone. Yet absence becomes presence.

Ariel Chaim Avrech, ZT'L, May His Righteous Memory be a Blessing.
