Memo to President Obama: Ten Facts Underlying the Arab Muslim War Against Israel

Tweet Russia, as Sarah Palin predicted they would in 2008, is invading Ukraine. China hungrily eyes the Japanese Senkaku/Diaoyu islands. Iran races toward the nuclear red line. In Syria, Bashar Assad, allied with Russia, slaughters thousands of own people — daily. The North Korean gulag starves millions and continues to build and test long-range missiles. […]

Jew-Hating US Church Goes Progressively Medieval

Tweet The Jew-hating agenda of Presbyterian Church USA is cloaked in liberal/progressive/leftist/Democrat sloganeering — in other words, Orwellian Newspeak. The PCUSA utilizes the fashionable squawk of social justice, but mixes it with the blood-soaked theology of supersessionism. The church’s published work, “Zionism Unsettled,” is a poisonous document that argues for delegitimizing Israel. The subtext of […]

Obama Goes Full French as Jews Flee France

Tweet France. To some, the very word conjures images of romance: Maurice Chevalier, the Eiffel Tower, damp cobblestones under pale moonlight, elegant women sipping wine, and goofy black berets. Me, I think of Vichy France. I think of the gendarmes enthusiastically rounding up French Jews, herding them into cattle cars, and shipping them to the […]

Mona Liza — an Arab Christian and Israeli Soldier — Would Sacrifice Her Life for Israel

Tweet The Democrat party, via ObamaCare, is shredding the greatest health care system the world has ever known. In an interview with Bill O’Reilly, Obama revealed himself as a serial liar and immature kvetch who blames Fox News for his countless failures. Meanwhile, John Kerry, Obama’s secretary of state, whose primary talent is marrying immensely […]

Scarlett Johansson Defies the Jew-Haters

Tweet It is rare for a Hollywood star to act with courage, especially when it comes to supporting Israel. Let’s face it: Except for Friends of Abe, Hollywood is a deeply conformist community that marches in left-leaning lock-step. Postmodern liberal ideology views Israel as an evil colonial empire. Never mind that Israel is a minuscule […]

Why the Jews?

Tweet At David Horowitz’s restoration weekend, Caroline Glick explains the roots of genocidal Jew hatred, and why this oldest of hatreds has never taken root in America.

Multiple Israeli Moves Against Iran, Borat Say: “High-Five!”

Tweet Central Asia. We think of the nations in this volatile sphere as set-ups for the vulgar, tasteless and wildly funny Borat, Sacha Baron Cohen’s clueless fictional character from the glorious nation of Kazakhstan. But gaze at the map. Geography is destiny. Israel now has access to military bases in two strategic Central Asian Muslim […]

Canadian PM Heckled By Arab Politicians

Tweet Can we trade Obama for Harper, eh? Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper delivered a wonderful speech to the Knesset in Israel. As once Jewish businesses were boycotted some civil society leaders today call for a boycott of Israel. On some campuses, intellectualized arguments against Israeli policies thinly mask underlying realities such as the shunning of Israeli […]

Obama: ‘Racism Is Why My Approval Rating Is Down’

Tweet You just knew this was coming. President Barack Obama said that racial tensions may have softened his popularity among white voters within the last two years, according to a story posted on the New Yorker magazine’s website today. “There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like […]

Praetorian Guard (AKA the FBI) Won’t File Charges Against IRS for Targeting Conservatives — Never Interviewed A Single Tea Party Group

Tweet The FBI—fast becoming Obama’s Praetorian Guard—will not file charges against the IRS for targeting conservative groups. However, the FBI never—that’s right, never!—interviewed a single Tea Party group. Sounds like the kind of due process normally used by totalitarian regimes. But for His Majesty Obama, the autocratic DNA of the Democrat party is in full flower. […]

Warrior: Ariel Sharon, 1928 – 2014

Tweet The first few days of the Yom Kippur War were confusing and frightening. We heard that things were going badly for Israel on both fronts. Later, after the war, we learned that Moshe Dayan told Prime Minister Golda Meir that the Third Commonwealth was about to fall. Turning the tide of war called for […]

Hasmonean Past Is Present

Tweet As the Demorats and their ObamaCare law grinds millions of Americans into misery, we who love this republic, are deeply worried about its future. Simultaneously, Obama betrays Israel at every step, enabling the IslamoNazis of Iran to achieve their nuclear goal. Thus, Israelis, and those who love Zion, are also worried about the future. […]

Judah Maccabee Wants You to Man-Up

Tweet Before Judah the Maccabee and his pitifully small band of 3,000 men went to battle against the great armies of the Selecuid empire, Judah assembeled his troops and gave them a rousing speech. This excerpt, from the Book of Maccabees, gives you an idea of the noble and pious rhetoric Judah used to inspire his […]

Obama Plays Knock Out The Jew

Tweet For the past several months, roving bands of black thugs have been assaulting Jews by punching them in the face. It’s called Knock Out the Jew. It’s a game. Presumably, the moron who knocks out the most Jews is the winner. Most of the assaults have taken place in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, which is […]

Muslims Fly Nazi Flag in Israel

Tweet To liberals, progressives, peaceniks, social justice activists — whatever you’re calling yourselves this week: please don’t write and tell me that not all Muslims are Nazis, that you, personally, know some very civilized, moderate Muslims. Those unicorn Muslims are irrelevant. That Nazi flag flying proudly in an Arab settlement inside Israel is the true […]

“Like Dreamers” Yossi Klein Halevi’s Masterful Book About The Soul of Modern Israel

Tweet There was a time when Seraphic Secret was afraid of Yossi Klein Halevi. Flashback: High School. The mid-sixties. Brooklyn Talmudical Academy. Seraphic Secret was a less than enthusiastic student who was forever cutting classes in order to go to the movies and acquire the education I really wanted. Yossi Klein Halevi was one […]

The Shadow Iranian Commander

Tweet Currently, the American media is focused on the partial Obama government shutdown, and Obamacare. Look, the government shuts down every weekend and the world does not come to an end. Obamacare is a disaster, and it will continue to degrade medical care in America—except for the elites who have exempted themselves from this infamous […]

The IDF Units Who Will Play Key Role In Future Iran Strike

Tweet The only positive outcome of Obama’s disastrous handling of the Syrian portfolio is a new and unshakable confirmation in Israel — as well as in Great Britain, Japan, Poland, Honduras and Mexico — that Obama is a deeply unreliable ally. As Iran’s charm offensive moves forward, it has become clear that Obama is desperate for any […]

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.
