To think that my former cantor, who moved to Israel with his wife a few years ago, toasted with champagne when Biden was inaugurated. They will probably never admit that Biden's foreign policy choices may doom their lives and those of their family living in Israel.

Lately I've been going to the local Chabad. The last non-political synagogue around here (though I hear that the other Orthodox shuls are also non-political). WTF is wrong with these Reform and Conservative and Reconstructionist rabbis, that they feel they have to opine on every political trend. The one Conservative guy loves to rail against guns. The Reconstructionist one rails against "white supremacy" which she considers a major threat to our country. Neither of them EVER talk about Islamic extremism which is responsible for most of the actual anti-Jewish violence, plus Black thuggery which now regularly targets Orthodox Jews (and also Asians, who now fear to go out after dark in NYC -- sucks that they voted Democrat all these years -- wonder if they'll change their ways, now that they're being targeted, and also now that their kids are being racially discriminated out of the elite high schools). Neither of them EVER mention the fact that black-on-black shootings constitute the vast majority of all gun homicides. They want to sound hip and in tune with current trends, so they pick on whites... even on Jews... because they're safe targets. God forbid a spiritual leader should condemn an actual murderer, like the black guy who ran over all those people at that parade, or the one who shot up that restaurant, etc. etc. But during the Kyle Rittenhouse thing they were all holier-than-thou.
I'll check out the Epoch story; I'm a paid subscriber. It's one of the few news sources I trust these days (along with The Spectator, Glenn Greenwald, some of Bari Weiss's essays, and the Grace Curley show on WRKO (who writes for The Spectator), along with of course JewishPress.com, Algemeiner, Daily Alert, MEMRI, and a few others on the topic of Israel and Judaism. I'll check out yours.

My rabbi openly exulted on his Facebook page when Trump lost. You'd think Moshiakh had arrived, from the way he talked.

Don't get me started.
Oh... too late. I started.
