For God And Country: How The U.S. Military Made Me a Better Jew By Mikhail Ekshtut In the entire U.S. military there are perhaps 150 Orthodox Jews – and I am one of them. Why am I telling you this? Before I answer that question, I should tell you my story. I was born in Kiev, Ukraine, and in 1976, when I was five, my parents, my sister and I immigrated to Seattle. When we arrived, Jewish Family Services sent my sister and me to the Seattle Hebrew Academy, an Orthodox day school. I didn’t speak any English so the...

The next 24-72 hours may be the most important in Iran's history. As Michael Ledeen posted yesterday, "...we can already say that the regime's intimidation was not successful. And you have to admire the courage of these young Iranians..." The events there are encouraging. We have heard of a demonstration yesterday with about 100,000 Iranians in the Pars region of the city of Tehran. This is a huge demonstration given that the regime was doing everything possible to keep people from gathering in this matter. We are continuing to hear of the regime’s jamming of the broadcasts in much of...

Today, in New York City, at Dag Hammerskold Square, about 2000 supporters of Iranian Freedom gathered in sresponse to a world wide call from the Students in Iran. I was there with Freeperette Firebrand, gladly standing and marching in support of the people of Iran. What is unfortunate, is that there was only about 5 or 6 people who were not Iranian! But, it is good we showed up, because we get to tell you all what we saw, and why it is necessary.

In less than 2 days (July 9th) the people of Iran are planning massive demonstrations events and strikes. On this date, 4 years ago, the regime brutally attacked peaceful student demonstrators while in their dorms. The result was the loss of life and liberty of hundreds of students, many of which are still unaccounted for. Once again, the regime has been threatening a major crackdown on the protesters. A major confrontation is just days away. Iran is a country ready for a regime change. If you follow this thread you will witness, I believe, the transformation of a country. This...
