Memorial for the Fogels  (18 March 2011)

"Thousands of people came to the Yeshurun synagogue in Jerusalem on Thursday for a memorial ceremony for the five members of the Fogel family who were murdered last week in their home in Itamar. Among those who came were politicians and Israel's leading rabbis. Rabbi and Member of Knesset Yisrael Eichler, a known figure in the hareidi-religious world, said, 'We cannot give comfort. We can only be together. As we say, "May G-d comfort you," only G-d can comfort the mourners.'..."

A Family is Butchered in Their Beds and the World Neither Knows Nor Cares  (18 March 2011)

"Why do so few of us here know about this massacre? You would have to be a pretty conscientious reader of the foreign pages or the Israeli press to have heard about it, and much of the world’s media is understandably focussed on Japan and Libya, where far more deaths have taken – and are taking – place. But I suspect that even without the tsunami and Gaddafi, these killings would have received little or no more attention than they actually did..."

The Shockingly Brutal Murder of a Sleeping Israeli Family  (18 March 2011)

"All this week, on secure campuses around the country (and worldwide), university students have been pledging their solidarity with the Palestinian cause in festivals of hypocrisy known as Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW). Events are scheduled that, according to planners, 'educate people about the nature of Israel as an apartheid system.' But I’ll bet not one of the IAW events attempts to educate attendees about the vicious slaughter of the Fogel family..."

Obama's Selective Anger  (18 March 2011)

Palestinians Condemning Murder  (16 March 2011)

"Yesterday I linked to a Guardian story which encouraged us to believe that Palestinians and Israelis were equally shocked by the murder of the Fogel family. The reporter, Harriet Sherwood, didn't supply any facts to bolster her claim, not even one, so it's hard to know what she thought she was referring to, or if - as I understand it - she was simply inventing things from thin air. A number of readers discussed the matter, and one, Mich, offered a fascinating report by Shlomi Eldar..."

Words That Break the Heart  (16 March 2011)

The Muslim Terrorist War Against Israeli Families  (16 March 2011)

"The brutal murders of the Fogel family, including the partial decapitation of a 3 month old baby, the stabbing a 3 year old twice in the heart, and the murder of both their parents, along with an 11 year old brother who was staying up late reading in bed, have shocked the world. But the Muslim terrorist tactic of massacring families is not a new one..."

Why They Celebrate Murdering Children  (16 March 2011)

"Do you think the State Department noticed that no one in Arizona, Mexico, or even Mars took to the streets to celebrate the shooting of Gabrielle Giffords? No one seemed to think it was a 'natural' act — the Islamic term du jour to rationalize the throat-slitting massacre of a sleeping Jewish family: 36-year-old Udi Fogel, his 35-year-old wife, Ruth, and, yes, their three children: 11-year-old Yoav, 4-year-old Elad, and Hadas, their 3-month-old baby..."

You Shall Not Kill!  (15 March 2011)

"It was 2010, and Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was speaking, as tempered as always, to a crowd as tempered as the prime minister could be. 'These [people] even see babies in their cradles as a threat. They have killed babies in their mothers’ arms,' he boomed. 'These people,' naturally, were the Israelis. Addressing Israel’s leaders from a public rally in Turkey, Mr. Erdoğan said in both Turkish and English: 'You shall not kill.'..."

The Deadliest 'Zation  (15 March 2011)

"In light of the most recent in a long history of Arab barbarism perpetrated against Israeli civilians, we must widen the lens through which we see Israel's place in the world. What happened this past weekend is not a political issue. It is a human issue. There is no political stance one can take that would warrant this savagery..."

The Other Tsunami  (15 March 2011)

"It is very difficult to hate babies. It takes a special person. ... The human being does not have to learn to hate. It seems to come pretty naturally. Nor does the human being have to learn to murder, steal or rape. These, too, seem to be in the natural human repertoire of evils. But the human being does have to learn to hate children and babies, and to regard the torture and murder of them as morally desirable acts. It takes years of work to undo normal protective human attitudes toward children. That is precisely what the Nazis did and what significant parts of the Muslim world have done to the word 'Jew.' To them, the Jew is not just sub-human; the Jew -- and his or her children -- is sub-animal..."

Why Palestinian Terror Attacks Ensure There Will Be No Peace  (14 March 2011)

An Historical Perspective on the Itamar Killings  (14 March 2011)

"On March 11, 2011, Sabbath eve, the Fogel family, including the parents, an 11-year old, a toddler and an infant were brutally slain as they slept in their Itamar home, their throats slit by terrorists. Yet a disturbing number of media reports focused on the existence of Israeli “settlements” as the primary problem in the region. Neglected were the historical parallels to grisly Arab terrorist attacks resulting from anti-Jewish incitement – all in the absence of settlements..."

Dead Jews Is No News  (14 March 2011)

"On Friday night, twelve-year old Tamar Fogel came home to find both her parents, Ruth and Udi Fogel, two brothers Yoav (11) and Elad (four), and her three-month old sister Hadas murdered in their beds. They had had their throats cut and been stabbed through the heart. That’s not shocking: There is no shortage of young Muslim men who would enjoy slitting the throat of a three-month old baby, and then head home dreaming of the town square or soccer tournament to be named in their honor..."

Palestinian Terrorists Who Murder Israelis Are No Longer Even 'Militants', But Merely 'Intruders'  (13 March 2011)

An Open Letter to Harvey Weinstein  (13 March 2011)

"On the same day that a family of five were being murdered in their home in Israel, Harvey Weinstein ran a self-congratulatory promotional piece for his company's terrorist propaganda flick, Miral. The photos stand out. The fat smirking face of Harvey Weinstein contrasted with the sleeping baby, the smiling little boys and the earnest couple who were their parents. They are all dead, and a Harvey Weinstein lives on to smirk another day. So it is with perpetrators and victims. The innocent children and the fat ugly men who profit from trafficking in the narrative of their killers..."

Harriet Sherwood's Reprehensible Moral Equivalence in Reporting the Murders in Itamar  (12 March 2011)

"We are told that the language we use dictates the way we perceive the world and react to what goes on in it. This manipulation of discourse is evident in the Guardian and particularly on CiF, both of which are good at cranking up ill feeling towards Israel and Jews but dismally incompetent at providing contextual information to their readership so that they can come to a balanced conclusion about what they are being told.  Harriet Sherwood is an arch-practitioner of this manipulation of discourse and truth, but thankfully she is not very clever at it..."

To Live As Jews  (28 December 2002)

"The tranquility of Shabbat was shattered on March 11, 2011, when a Palestinian terrorist broke into the home of the Fogel family in Itamar, and stabbed to death both parents and three children. We grieve this horrific and tragic loss. Though the world media - focused on Libya and Japan - is barely noting the tragedy, every thinking person must introspect on what this all means in the big picture. The following article, written in 2002 at the height of Intifada violence, gives voice to our cries..."

"Thus saith the LORD,
which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night,
which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; the LORD of hosts is His name:
'If those ordinances depart from before me,' saith the LORD,
'then the seed of Israel shall also cease from being a nation before me forever'"
(Jeremiah 31:35-36)

"For the LORD will not cast off His people, neither will He forsake His inheritance"
(Psalm 94:14)

"They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion which cannot be removed, but abideth forever.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about His people from henceforth even forever"
(Psalm 125:1-2)
