Jews and Guns

Tweet Before our son Ariel Chaim ZT”L passed away in 2003 at the age of twenty-two, he and I spent a good deal of time discussing the Second Amendment, the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Ariel was amazed that so many American Jews–overwhelmingly liberal and secular–aligned themselves with the advocates of gun control, in reality a […]

Jewess With a Gun: Israeli Sharpshooter Tells All

Tweet “How long did it take you to qualify as a sharpshooter in the IDF?” “Not too long. I had natural way with rifle. I start out at 15 meters, then up to 30, 50, 100, 400 then all the way up to,” she hesitates, “classified meters.” Israeli soldiers are famously and appropriately tight-lipped regarding training and […]

Meet the Israeli Killer Robot

Tweet Here at Seraphic Secret we’re always on the lookout for new and better ways to kill IslamoNazi terrorists. In eight years Barack Obama has never even acknowledged the existence of IslamoNazis. Obama and his leftist goose-steppers use the Orwellian term, “violent extremism.” As if violent extremism is a fully formed ideology that is […]

Israel: With Friends Like Obama…

Tweet Not only have Barack Obama and the Democrat party become supporters of the Iranian IslamoNazis, but now Obama is trying to force Israel to buy weapon systems that it does not want — systems that would, in effect, allow America to control the software needed for Israel’s defense. This is foreign policy through […]

Jew With Gun

Tweet There is no such thing as gun violence. The left uses the absurd phrase “gun violence” in order to rid our culture of human agency — in other words, of morality. The left denies the notion of good and evil just as it denies IslamoNazi terror, a malignant ideology that is spreading like cancer […]

The Iranian-Democrat Axis of Evil

Tweet The unspoken fact of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action — better described as the Democrat–Iranian nuclear deal — is that the Iranians will cheat on whatever provisions exist that, theoretically, slow their march toward nuclear weapons. The Iranians are religious fanatics who believe that lying to non-Muslims is perfectly okay. The Democrats are […]

Obama’s Bad Idea About Bad Ideas

Tweet Yesterday, at West Point, President Obama said, “Ideologies are not defeated with guns, they are defeated with better ideas — a more attractive and compelling vision.” This statement is one more pious leftist pronouncement that is demonstrably false. Slavery in the United States was an evil ideology that was defeated by the force of […]

Ally by Michael B. Oren, Ambassador to Chelm

Tweet New Jersey born historian Michael B. Oren was a Zionist inspired-teenager, who, in 1970, when shaking hands with the Israeli Ambassador Yitzchak Rabin, promised himself that someday he would be Israel’s ambassador to the United States. Like a great many American dreamers, Oren’s ambition was realized — sort of. Oren was Israel’s ambassador to […]

The IDFs Secret Weapon: Autistic Intelligence Analysts

Tweet My wife, Karen, is a brilliant and gifted psychologist. Over the years I have learned a great deal about autism, and in the process shed many misconceptions. This entry from the IDF Blog highlights how the Jewish state gives responsibility to those on the spectrum with some of the most important and sensitive military […]

Obama: The New Pharaoh

Tweet In the Passover seder we recite the following quote from the Torah: And there arose a new king over Egypt who did not know Joseph. (Exodus 1.8) The sages tell us that the new Pharaoh did not want to know Joseph, did not want to acknowledge the Jewish slave who rose to become Viceroy […]

Defecting Iranian Journalist: U.S. at Nuclear Talks ‘To Speak on Iran’s Behalf’

Tweet It should be clear to anyone who is paying attention that Barack Obama is on a carefully orchestrated jihad against the Jewish State. Obama’s radical leftist, anti-Semitic world view is now in full flower now. Denis McDonough, Obama’s chief of staff, blasted Israel at the anti-Semitic J Street confab, stating that“an occupation that has […]

Obama Plays the Jew Card and the The Democrat Betrayal of Liberty

Tweet Iran going nuclear is not just about Israel. Obama, playing the standard leftist Jew-card, would have us believe that those pesky Jews are getting in the way of his faux negotiations with a genocidal yearning Islamist state. But the truth is, Iran as a nuclear threshold power is a direct threat to world freedom. When […]

Why Netanyahu, the Churchill of Our Time, Must Speak Before Congress

Tweet An excellent analysis by Steve Forbes. It is fitting and proper–indeed essential for our very security–that Speaker John Boehner has extended an invitation to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu to address Congress on Iran and its efforts to develop nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them anywhere in the world. The invitation […]

The Police are the New Jews

Tweet All across the United States, police departments and police officers are shrilly demonized as racist, cold-blooded killers by the opportunistic race hustlers of the left. Sound familiar? Indeed, the hatred of police from the liberal left echoes their endless demonization of Israel, the Jewish state.

Hamas: Ruling West Bank Could Destroy Israel “…with a speed that no one can imagine.”

Tweet Obama has (sorta) declared war against Islamic State. But the IslamoNazis of Hamas, according to the State Department, are partners for peace. In short, the IslamoNazis who work to liquidate the State of Israel and every Jew on the face of the earth are good IslamoNazis. But the IslamoNazis who threaten Western interests are […]

The Arc of Instability

Tweet Jonathan Spyer, a uniquely knowledgeable journalist and author, tells Voice of Israel’s Eve Harow (a friend from Los Angeles who now lives in Israel) why Syria is gone, and why the Levant is devolving to its savage Islamist roots. Dr. Jonathan Spyer is a senior research fellow at the Global Research in International Affairs Center in […]

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.
