BY RON JAGER— The past two weeks will go down as the worst weeks of the Obama presidency. Obama managed to embarrass himself abroad, humiliate himself at home, reinforcing the underlying feeling that he shouldn’t have been elected in the first place, let alone be re-elected later this year. To begin with Obama responded to…
BY RON JAGER— In recent weeks, archliberal Peter Beinhart has reignited the call to boycott products manufactured in communities located geographically in the “West Bank”, known to many supporters of Israel as Judea and Samaria.
