By VICTOR SHARPE— The nearly four thousand year old association of Jewish life in Gaza is little remembered in today’s world. Of course people know of the biblical story of Samson being blinded by the now extinct Philistines and how he brought down the temple to their gods in Gaza. But very few have any…
By RON JAGER— As the world community watches images of Hamas rockets falling on southern Israel and the greater Tel-Aviv area, I seriously doubt if they bother to consider that if Hamas had the ability to murder thousands of Jews, they would. And that if Israel didn’t have a strong army, Hamas would continue attacking…
By DANIEL MCCABE— “For the LORD does not see as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7 Star Trek episodes document the fictional voyages of the starship Enterprise through uncharted galaxies. Captain Kirk and his loyal crew often encounter very strange people, forces…

By RON JAGER— For mainstream Jewish America, the unquestioning and almost automatic support US Jews give President Obama seems to be inconsistent with their values and incompatible with their better interests. Under Obama’s policies, poverty has increased significantly, not only making more people poor, but making the poor poorer. Minorities and women have fared unusually…
By DANIEL MCCABE— “Always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you.” 1 Peter 3:15 Mrs. Taylor, my third grade teacher, taught me the multiplication tables. When I concentrate I can still remember those days. Nine times three—twenty-seven. Nine times four—thirty six. I…
By SHELLEY NEESE, JPOST— At 34 years of age, the Martin Luther of 1517 was a little known Augustinian monk plagued by thoughts of his own sins and failings.
