My father raised me with Jewish observance. Shma at night, Kiddush on Friday night. But the earliest memories I have of reading a sacred text with my father aren't of Genesis, or the Exodus from Egypt, or even of my Bar Mitzvah parsha.
They're of reading the Declaration of Independence with him every July 4th.
He would read them aloud with the same musical, passionate voice that compelled the attention of listeners at state affairs or class day ceremonies. We were a small family of four, often in those early years with another family we were close to, but we felt like a jury listening to the case that he was making in the highest of courts.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal!" he would insist, his eyes meeting ours -- and then pause, waiting to see if any of us would dare to challenge him. I didn't understand many of the specific accusations that the Founding Fathers were laying at Britain's feet, but I knew by the end that my father believed America had the protection of divine Providence, and that he pledged his life, fortune and honor to this country that had taken him in, that had given him a home when he was stateless.

.@grok, how many mosques are there in New York City, and of those, how many imams or official spokesmen publicly condemned the pro-Palestinian violence perpetrated by Muslims against Jews in New York yesterday?
Dear everyone who says they've been "noticing" lately -- about Israel, about the Jews, about who really runs our country and the world,
You didn't notice. You were shown.
Sophisticated operators using well-developed persuasion techniques have brought you into their sales funnel.
But what they sold you isn't a product. What they sold you is an idea.
It's also a bill of goods.
The techniques are powerful:
Pre-suasion, Assumptive close, Illusory truth effect, Thought-terminating phrases, Burden shifting, Assertion stacking, Motivated reasoning, Asymmetric skepticism, Authority transfer, and more.
This video is meant to help you notice something new: the epistemic manipulation these actors are engaged in to spread their social contagion.
Fortunately, there's a vaccine. Of course, it was created by a Jew...

If there is one article you must read this month, or probably this year, it is this one.
If you want to understand what happened to the West after 9/11 and after October 7, if you want to understand the Red-Green Alliance, if you want to understand what the hell happened to the “woke right,” and if you want to know why the re-Zionization of the West is the only hope to save it, read this article.
Does this silly little man not understand that Islam is a very aggressive belief system, threatening death to anyone who does not convert to Islam
The Buddhists, the Taoists, the Scottish Presbyterians,
the Hindus and the Sikhs and the Confucians and the
Catholics don't go around shouting about beheading
people they disagree with
Is this too much for your tiny little brain to take in ?
Oh. The doorbell rang. The police I assume...
You clip-chopping, context-murdering fucking pricks...
this is peak intellectual dishonesty, the kind that would make Machiavelli blush and Goebbels nod in professional approval.
Netanyahu didn’t pull some anti-Christ soliloquy out of his ass.
He was quoting Will Durant...the towering American historian, that Christian humanist who spent a lifetime dissecting civilization in The Story of Civilization and The Lessons of History.
Durant observed the brutal ledger of history with merciless clarity:
“Nature and history do not agree with our conceptions of good and bad; they define good as that which survives, and bad as that which goes under; and the universe has no prejudice in favor of Christ as against Genghis Khan.”
That’s not blasphemy; that’s unflinching realism, forged in the blood-soaked pages of every empire that rose and every prophet who fell.
Netanyahu, staring down genocidal fanatics who rape, behead, and hide behind their own civilians, was driving home the philosophical truth that ideals without iron are suicide pacts.
Your precious moral posturing means jack shit if you lack the power to enforce it.
Evil doesn’t yield to sermons...it yields to superior force. History’s classroom is soaked in the blood of the unprepared.
This clip is pure venomous manipulation:
a surgical strike at the Christian id, engineered to bypass reason and ignite tribal outrage.
“How dare he say that about Jesus!” they say, conveniently forgetting the historian’s name, the strategic context of existential survival, and the fact that Christianity itself survived not merely by turning the other cheek but by becoming the faith of empires that knew precisely when to wield the sword of Constantine.
Selective amnesia, fragile egos, and algorithmic rage-bait at its finest...classic playbook for grifters who traffic in sacred triggers because nuance doesn’t farm engagement.
Will Durant understood the tragedy of the human condition:
nature and history are indifferent gods that crown survivors, not saints.
In a world crawling with modern Genghis Khans...jihadist hordes dreaming of caliphates...the Jewish state doesn’t have the luxury of naive pacifism.
Fuck your decontextualized outrage.
Fuck the dishonest framing that turns a profound historical insight into cartoon villainy.
Grow the fuck up.
Read Durant.
Study power.
And truly, fuck off with this selective fucking bullshit.

Not one Democrat has come out and said that people have the right to own a dog.
They’re all coming down on the side of, “You can lead your dog to slaughter if that’s what we have to do to make Muslim immigrants happy.”
Remember where they stand.
Hey @Uber your drivers at O’Hare do this thing where they accept a ride and then do a drop off first in a different level. The app shows they are here but they really aren’t ready for the pick up. We then have to wait for them to do a full drive around. Very inconvenient.
