It is amazing how much the world ignores the excesses of Islam while vilifying Israel, the only liberal democracy in the Middle East.
How can it be possible for Western media to ignore the highest ideal in Israeli society, which is to save a life?
How can it be possible for Western media to ignore the highest ideal in Arab society, which is to TAKE a life?
Does the truth mean so little to these people?
What an amazing reflection on Western culture. We actively ignore the vilest, most awful examples of depravity in Israel’s enemies while vilifying and calling awful, EVERYTHING about Israeli society.

Yes, Virginia, there really is a proud-to-be-Israeli Arab party forming in Israel.
I got some flack from the peanut gallery back in February when I posted that Nearly 53% of Israeli Arabs are proud to be Israeli. Not only did some not believe it… they didn’t WANT to believe it.
There really are idiots out there who want the conflicts in the Middle East to continue.
Well, here’s a little bit of extra support for those statistics. There is a new party forming, of Israeli Arabs who are pro-Israel. This will probably take some votes away from Likud and Kadima, but the idea that there’s a political party in Israel, of Arabs that are pro-Israel…

Last week, Israel stood and remembered those who fell. When the sirens sounded at 8 p.m. the night before (for one minute) and at 11 a.m (for two minutes) the nation stopped what it was doing and was grateful. Almost 23 thousand soldiers gave their lives so that Israel could be the only free country in a region awash with tyranny.
It’s called Yom Hazikaron (Day of Remembrance), and I’ve been through 15 of those. When the sirens wail it’s as if you can, for just a moment, touch those who paid the price for Israel’s freedom, and feel the anguish of those who laid to rest their sons and daughters.
