After a successful campaign to have the Iran nuclear deal torn up, Israel has now taken up the role of enforcer. With US President Donald Trump set to announce second rounds of sanctions in November, America and Israel have set up a joint team that will enforce economic sanctions against Iran in the high-tech sector.

Israel’s Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon and United States Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin yesterday announced the establishment of the joint team. The two are reported to have met in Washington for the fourth time in their tenures. According to the Israeli Haaretz, the meeting was also attended by the Director General of the Ministry of Finance, Shai Babad, and the Israeli economic attaché in the US Eran Nitzan.   Continue reading “Israel, US set up joint team to enforce Iran sanctions”

BEIRUT – Blasts heard at the Mezzeh airbase near Damascus were caused by missile strikes targeting the base and by Syrian air defense systems responding, an official in the regional alliance supporting Damascus said on Sunday.

A war monitor, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said the explosions resulted from Israeli air strikes, and that they caused deaths and injuries.   Continue reading “Syria accuses Israel of missile strikes on military base in Damascus”

“Since the days of Karl Marx and his ‘workers of the world unite’ shtick, the ‘anti-capitalist’ Reds have always manipulated the passions of the working man as a means to destabilize the system and redirect power and wealth towards a super-centralized state. That state, of course, is then financed and controlled by the very same big banker ‘capitalists’ that secretly control the ‘anti-capitalist’ Reds! The big joke on Joe Hardhat, who may very well have legitimate grievances and honest concerns about his work conditions, is that neither the Red union bosses nor their secret capitalist bosses give a rat’s ass about him. Once the national economy is consolidated into the hands of the New World Order big money boys, ‘the working man’- who had so faithfully and often violently fought for ‘change’ – gets tossed aside like a used up lemon. Whatever good that his union may have done for him and his family was only a necessary side-effect, never the main objective.”

Next week there’s a book coming out about William Cooper: Pale Horse Rider: William Cooper, the Rise of Conspiracy, and the Fall of Trust in America, by Mark Jacobson. Vice.com has an interview with the author, here. In the title of the article, Vice calls Cooper “the Godfather of Conspiracy Theories,” which is pretty spot on.

I’m somewhat surprised that a biography of Bill Cooper has been written and published by a subsidiary of Penguin, but upon further reflection it perfectly suits the times. Donald Trump is the conspiracist in chief, after all – however lame and amateurish those theories are upon closer inspection.   Continue reading “New Book About ‘Wild’ Bill Cooper”

B’nai Brith Canada

TORONTO – A few dozen activists protested outside B’nai Brith Canada headquarters in Toronto Wednesday in a rally to support the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW).

B’nai Brith recently condemned the union for aligning itself with a Palestinian counterpart that supports terrorism and the elimination of Israel.

The event was organized by former Green Party Justice Critic Dimitri Lascaris, an anti-Israel activist who recently lost a lawsuit against B’nai Brith. Toronto lawyer Stephen Ellis was a co-organizer of Wednesday’s gathering.   Continue reading “Anti-Israel Protesters Threaten, Disparage B’nai Brith Outside Toronto Headquarters”

Sen. John McCain of Arizona, who died on Aug. 25 at age 81, was an extraordinary friend of the Jewish people. He was an outspoken defender of Israel and a close friend of former Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut. The many articles written about McCain and Israel have not included some of the most amazing acts of friendship and love he had for Israel and the Jewish people. Being a member of the local Phoenix Jewish community for 39 years allowed me to meet the senator on a number of occasions, and we were privy to some amazing actions and comments by the senator that have not been widely reported.  Continue reading “In memory of McCain’s service to America, Israel and the Jewish people”
