Seraphic Secret in Israel, 2017

Tweet Karen and I spent the last days of Succos in Israel. Mostly we stayed in Efrat with Karen’s brother David and his lovely family. But we did manage to spend one day in Jerusalem where we headed straight to the holy Kotel, the Western Wall, the remnants of the Second Temple.

9-11 Sixteen Years After: Never Forget, Never Forgive

Tweet The Torah teaches that we should forever remember what Amalek did to the children of Israel in the desert. Furthermore, the Torah commands us to wipe this evil off the face of the earth. Remember what Amalek did to you on the way as you came out of Egypt, how he attacked you on […]

How Europe Is Being Destroyed From Within

Tweet The following is by Melanie Phillips, from her website. One of the most assiduously cultivated myths of modern times is that antisemitism is a pathology of the political right. The truth is that today, while antisemitism certainly persists in right-wing circles, the main driver of contemporary Jew-hatred – centred upon the demonised figure of the […]

How IslamoNazis Use Foreign Aid to Fund Terror AKA Pay for Slay

Tweet The so-called Palestinians spend over half their annual budget on payments to murderers and their families. The more Jews who are murdered and the more gruesome the slaughter, the more money these savages receive as lifelong stipends. This is your American tax dollars at work. It’s also European money, but I don’t expect Europeans […]

Rewarding IslamoNazi Violence

Tweet You and I and everyone we know must pass through metal detectors at the airport, sports stadium, concert halls, the Vatican, Mecca, the Western Wall, and thousands of other venues. A security guard waves a wand over congregants as they enter my shul on Shabbat. Why? Because of IslamoNazi terror, which has spread like […]

Iran, North Korea: Not Learning From History

Tweet As Syria and Iraq continue to spiral into Hobbesian tribal conflict we can all be grateful that Israel denied these two cruel states nuclear weapons. Operation Babylon, was a surprise Israeli air strike carried out on June 7, 1981, which destroyed an Iraqi nuclear reactor under construction 10.5 miles southeast of Baghdad. What’s less well […]

Where Are the Moderate Muslims?

Tweet After every terrorist attack, politicians and pundits reassure us that the atrocity does not represent the true beliefs of the “moderate Muslim majority.” But how many moderates are there? And what exactly does “moderate” mean? Military instructor and researcher Hussein Aboubakr explains.

Jew-Hating Dykes

Tweet Once same-sex marriage became the law of the land, we wondered what cause leftist homosexuals would dredge up in order to keep their social-justice train running. Now we know: making their ranks Judenrein. Big surprise, huh?

The True Diplomatic Legacy of 1967

Tweet Unfortunately, it’s common in political discussions to hear pundits and commentators say: “Israel must withdraw to the 1967 borders.” There’s only one problem with that analysis: There are no 1967 borders. The line that Israel inherited from the War of Independence is the Armistice Demarcation Line of 1949, which is different from the international […]

Why Abbas Cannot Stop Funding Terrorists

Tweet The welfare witches who call themselves Palestinians have been sponging off U.S. and European taxpayers for several generations. Most of the money that they received — amounting to billions of dollars — has been used to line the pockets of various corrupt tribes. We must remember that the Arab Muslim world is, first […]

But It’s Okay to Slaughter Jewish Children

Tweet And now the Manchester atrocity. Another IslamoNazi terrorist attack in which lives are snuffed out and the injured are burnt, blinded, deafened, crushed and absent limbs, condemned to a life of psychological and physical agony. Observe the kabuki theater of solidarity, candles, flowers and shrines of stuffed toys. Listen to the boiler plate expressions […]

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.
