Republicans and Their Faulty Moral Arithmetic

Tweet In today’s WSJ, Arthur C. Brooks scolds Republicans for allowing the Democrats to dominate the political landscape by claiming to care for the poor. Brooks correctly points out that graphs and charts proving Republican policies are better for most people are useless when placed alongside a Democrat who claims to “care.” I believe that [...]

Child Abuse: Where Jihadists and Democrats Converge

Tweet Seraphic Secret is struck, but not surprised, at the way Islamists use and abuse their children in the endless war against Western civilization. Here’s a clip of a child preacher from Egyptian TV. The kid has no idea what he’s saying. He’s just repeating what he’s been taught, regurgitating hate like a robot. In [...]

Iranian Anti-Semitic Movie Depicts Jews as Cultists Who Massacre Muslims

Tweet The latest pretext for Muslim riots, rape, pillage and murder is some dopey trailer on YouTube that doesn’t bow and scrape to Islam. Only a deeply insecure faith system gets insulted so easily and with such frequency. Those who have a healthy grounding in their faith shrug off insults and get on with their [...]

Romney Is Right on Culture and the Wealth of Nations

Tweet Two weeks ago I had lunch at a local kosher sushi shop with Professor Richard Landes. We discussed, at length, various strategies for shoring up support for Israel, and at the same time, exposing the lies and hate that animate the Arab Muslim world. Richard and I have long agreed that Israel and her [...]

“Land of Promise,” 1924 Silent Film About Zionist Pioneers

Tweet When writing about movies, Seraphic Secret usually focuses on Hollywood. But this silent film, “Banim Bonim” Land of Promise, is a documentary/travelogue from 1924 that is fascinating. The second reel is missing, but it’s still 41 minutes long. Take a look, and then some comments. As with most documentaries, the film was carefully constructed [...]

Seraphic Secret’s Diplomatic Solution to the Arab Israeli Conflict

Tweet In light of yesterday’s post regarding murderous, genocidal peace movements, Seraphic Secret is reminded of the Peace Now! bumper stickers that blighted the Israeli landscape for too many years. Peace Now, a brain dead movement, delivered intellectual collapse through Oslo and then death and destruction via Arab Muslim pogroms against the Jewish people. As [...]

The Rape, Torture and Murder Of Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian

Tweet George Zimmerman is being tried, judged and lynched by the race-baiters of the left—in concert with the liberal media. Race-hustlers like Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters and Barack Obama are doing what they do. I expect no less. It’s how they make a living. It’s why they breathe. But the media [...]

Six Words

Tweet In light of the Palestinian stunt to seek statehood via the Jew-hating U.N. this message from The Simon Wiesenthal Museum is short, to the point, and comprised of six words: We “recognize Israel as a Jewish State.”

The Truth About Judea & Samaria Plus a Semi-Hysterical Hollywood Rant

Tweet   Below the fold is a pretty good video about Judea and Samaria hosted by, hold on to your seats: Danny Ayalon. And here’s the semi-hysterical rant I promised. You can tell it’s semi-hysterical because I go all James Joyce with lack of punctuation, and, oh, yeah, the bold type: I think it would [...]

Welfare Witches Gone Wild

Tweet The so-called Palestinians have received, per capita, more humanitarian aid than any other group on the face of the planet. We’re talking billions upon billions of dollars. And yet we’re constantly bombarded with stories about poverty, disease and malnutrition. All lies, in fact, blood libels against the Jewish State. Where has the money gone? [...]

The Truth About Propaganda

Tweet Ask a military man to define a defensive war and the answer will be, “Defeat.” And so it is with Israel’s feeble attempts at hasbarah, propaganda. In truth, the Hebrew word hasbarah more closely translates as “clarification.” And therein lies one of the problems. Israel and Jews are engaged in a futile task: rebutting [...]
