Owner of Teffilin Lost During Six Day War Identified

This story gave me chills. 

Wonderful.

Blogging Will Be Light for At Least the Next Week and Possibly Two

I know I used to get bummed out when my favourite blogs didn't update regularly-I used to wonder what was happening, because I was always cognisant of the real people behind the blogs.

Things have been a little busy for me over the past couple of weeks with real life stuff-some pretty big stuff.

I don't really feel it's appropriate or necessary to go into detail publicly, but these things are going to prevent me from blogging regularly for the next week at least, and perhaps longer-I can't really say yet.

I will post stuff whenever I have a chance, but of course please do visit the usual suspects-my friends Kathy, Arnie, and scaramouche for most of what you'll need to read.

I'm trying to keep focused on the positive, because everything is from G-d, even our challenges and our hardest moments.

I have a bit of quiet time now so I'll put up some links, but as I said-it will be quiet around here most likely for a bit.

Thank you for reading, and G-d bless.

Hey, Mazel Tov to George Jonas. 

Another scribe certainly deserving of the honour would be Mark Steyn.

Sorry-please remind me why any Western blood was shed trying to civilize these primitive barbarians.

His USA Today column on 'flexible' and 'alternative' education models is also excellent.

Caroline Glick: The New York Times Destroys the Obama Administration

Caroline Glick has a very interesting take on the New York Times belated 'expose' and attempt to clear the Obama administration of any wrong doing in Benghazi.

She spells out the Obama doctrine pretty clearly, too and it's pretty bloody awful.

"...the only reason that the intelligence failed to notice the threats emanating from local US-supported terrorists is because the US counterterrorist strategy, like its overall Middle East strategy, is to seek to appease all US enemies other than the parts of al-Qaida directly commanded by Ayman al-Zawahiri."

Holocaust Survivor Meets Her Liberator, 70 Years Later

Extraordinarily beautiful. 

"...Joe Barbella was serving in the 11th Armored Division. Because he had learned to type at Central High School in Newark, when he was drafted into the Army, he was quickly assigned to be a record keeper for the division’s medical unit, he said"

"On May 5, 1945, U.S. soldiers from the 11th Armored Division would cross the Linz border in Austria and liberate Mauthausen. Barbella wouldn’t enter the camp with the medical unit until the day after it was liberated, he said."

"When we got there, we saw all these people were skin and bones," Barbella said."

"Kreuzman said she remembers lying down just outside the camp’s crematorium when the soldiers arrived. She heard the words: "You’re free."

"She fainted and a soldier carried her to a field hospital, where doctors would start nursing her back to health, she said."


A Victory for Team Life in the UK-Brilliant

Kudos to the entire medical team.

January May Well Be the Death Month of the Democratic Party (One Can Hope)

There will be so many stories like this.

Sticker shock is a bitch.

The Death of Free Speech in Denmark

Speech codes as blasphemy enforcement.

Death penalty for apostasy in Europe. 

This is what is happening today in Europe. 

And in North America as well, and the rest of the Western world.

Speech codes are totalitarian.

Screw that.

Never surrender.

2013: The Year The Progressive Agenda Collided With Reality

This is true, of course but IRRELEVANT to the left.

Facts are irrelevant to the utopians. 

They don't care.

So while this article is accurate and factual, it will not make a difference to the left.

No difference whatsoever.
