The Jewish State, by definition, rejects some and welcomes others into the fold. In “Is Israel Racist?”, a reply to an anti-Semitic interviewer (he bailed), the emphasis was on demonstrating why Israel’s particularism is an extension of the individual’s right as a sovereign, discerning human being. For the freedom to include or exclude is not racist. Rather, it is the inherent right of free individuals, living severally or collectively.” Jews are to be faulted only to the extent that they deny to other nations the rights they claim for the Jewish ethno-state. Israel’s particularism, moreover, is not race-based, it’s religious....

President Donald Trump is blasting the FBI and the Department of Justice, along with the media, over the news that Joe Biden's son Hunter is under federal investigation, demanding to know why the probe wasn't announced before the November election. "Why didn’t the Fake News Media, the FBI and the DOJ report the Biden matter BEFORE the Election?" the president said on Twitter Thursday night. "Oh well, it’s OK, we won the Election anyway - 75,000,000 VOTES!!!" Trump followed up on Friday, tweeting that Attorney General William Barr "perhaps knew of the corruption during the impeachment hoax" and that the...

Minister for Education, Kirsty Williams, is pushing an education Bill which requires all pupils to study atheism or ‘non-religious’ views such as Humanism with no parental right of withdrawal. Under the new system a non-religious committee in each area is given a veto power over all religious teaching. So humanists, who actively oppose all religion, are to be handed control over religious teaching in schools. The sensitive issue of sex education is also being given a total rewrite, imposing compulsory sex education for all pupils from the age of three. All existing safeguards on inappropriate materials are scrapped by the...

President Trump called on the Supreme Court on Friday to “save” the country from presumptive President-elect Joseph R. Biden, saying a Biden administration would be mired in scandal. “Now that the Biden administration will be a scandal plagued mess for years to come, it is much easier for the Supreme Court of the United States to follow the Constitution and do what everybody knows has to be done,” Mr. Trump tweeted. “They must show great Courage & Wisdom. Save the USA!!!” The justices are expected to consider a lawsuit Friday that seeks to overturn Mr. Biden’s wins in four swing...

Federal agents this morning raided Polymer80, one of the largest makers of firearm build kits, which are chided as ‘ghost guns’ by the left. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms seized records from the company’s headquarters near Carson City, Nevada on Thursday. The agency claims Polymer80 is illegally manufacturing and distributing firearms, failing to pay taxes, shipping guns across state lines, and not conducting background checks on buyers. The probe centers on the company’s “Buy, Build, Shoot” kits, which include parts to fabricate a handgun at home without the need to buy anything from a gun dealer. The component...

Black Lives Matter is putting the forthcoming Biden-Harris administration on notice for failing to respond to a meeting request from the group. The activists say they were also excluded from a Tuesday meeting between the president- and vice president-elect, Louisiana Rep. Cedric Richmond and several civil rights groups. “On the night of the Biden Harris victory, BLM sent a letter requesting a meeting,” the movement wrote Wednesday on its Instagram. The post includes a graphic stating “It has been … 32 days since we’ve requested a meeting with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. We’ve heard no response.” Black life cannot...

Though the 1983 movie “A Christmas Story” did not make much of an impression when it was initially released, it has since become a perennial holiday favorite with families across the country. We are not only treated to Ralphie’s hilarious quest to obtain a Red Ryder BB gun, but the film also reminds us at least a little, of our own childhood Christmases past. While most of us are familiar with the cult classic, many may not know the tragic way in which the director of “A Christmas Story,” Bob Clark, died…He was killed by a drunk-driving illegal alien. On...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A man was arrested Friday morning in the murder of a nurse originally from Butler County who was shot on a Nashville, Tennessee, highway while on her way to work, police said. Devaunte Hill, 21, is charged with criminal homicide in the death of Caitlyn Kaufman. Hill was arrested about 6:15 a.m. at his East Nashville apartment by a SWAT team. Police in Nashville said he gave a statement after his arrest that implicated him. Earlier in the week, a group of anonymous business owners and entrepreneurs in Nashville contributed to a large monetary reward in the...

Today’s Scripture: Romans 6:11 “Consider yourselves dead to sin.” The guilt of our sin in Adam resulted in our being given over to sin’s dominion as a penal consequence. When a judge sentences a convicted criminal to five years in prison, that sentence is the penal consequence of his crime—analogous to what God did to Adam and all his posterity. Part of the penal consequence of Adam’s sin was being delivered into sin’s bondage. When the prisoner has served his five years, his penal consequences are over. The broken law no longer has a claim against him. In that sense...

Fox News anchor Chris Wallace said Friday on “America’s Newsroom” that Attorney General William Barr was ” playing it by the book” by not making the investigation into Hunter Biden public. Wallace said, “I will say that Justice Department guidelines are that the Justice Department does not take any action in the weeks or even months leading up to an investigation — or to an election that would sway that election. So it would seem that Barr was playing it by the book in not doing this. And remember the firestorm when James Comey, the FBI Director, came out first...

On election day, Fox News betrayed President Trump, and this has puzzled many patriots. The confusion vanishes if one assumes that this episode could be just a small part of the process of China's colonization of America. China has already colonized some countries in the Pacific region, South America, and Africa for all practical purposes. Add to this list the de facto colonization of northern Italy and a large part of Russia in Eastern Siberia. Also, communist China greedily devours real estate and businesses in the United States. Therefore, the 2020 presidential election should be seen as an integral part...

The Democrat-run Minneapolis City Council has slashed a staggering $8 million from its police department's funding, despite a major violent crime surge in the Minnesota city.

Friends, in today’s Gospel Jesus says, "The Son of Man came eating and drinking and they said, ‘Look, he is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’" The Passover meal was decisively important in salvation history. God commands that his people share a meal to remember their liberation from slavery. This supper provides the context for the deepest theologizing of the Israelite community. Both the bitterness of their slavery and the sweetest of their liberation are acted out in this sacred meal. Jesus’ life and ministry can be interpreted in light of this symbol. From...
