Dear Reader:

The feast of the Ascension of our Lord is a forgotten feast. “Catholic” Union members will walk off the job for money because their Union bosses want a raise for themselves, but they will not walk off the job to keep their relationship with God. Continue reading

Israeli, Palestinian candidates share electoral list in Jerusalem first

For the first time in a half-century, a joint Palestinian-Israeli list will compete in Jerusalem’s municipal elections. The 350,000 Palestinians living in Jerusalem have boycotted the vote since Israel unilaterally unified Jerusalem in 1967 and created a single municipality, refusing to recognize and legitimize the Israeli occupation and annexation. Palestinians in East Jerusalem were given permanent residency but not citizenship, and thus can vote in municipal elections but not for the Knesset.

At the time these labor union thugs were shooting top executives in the knee who wouldn’t cooperate with their agenda. Continue reading

Will this woman be Israel’s next political star?

Knesset member Orly Levy-Abekasis announced the establishment of a new party March 6. Opinion polls published in the days that followed were flattering, and it seems that the old, established parties with strong social platforms have reason to be worried. True, her latest achievement exists only on paper, but the recent Hadashot poll that awarded her new party five seats is telling. MORE

Hebrew prophet’s tomb in Iraq saved from collapse

AL-QOSH, Iraq — “The Iraqi government was against everything Jewish after the Jews left in the ’50s,” said Father Araam, a young Chaldean priest serving in the predominantly Christian town of al-Qosh, in northern Iraq. That, he explained, was why it has been indifferent to the fate of the sole remaining synagogue in Iraq, here in al-Qosh. “That’s why it almost collapsed.” MORE
