JPost – Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu warned on Sunday that Iran was just six to seven months away from being able to build a nuclear bomb, adding urgency to his demand that President Barack Obama set a clear “red line” for Tehran in what could deepen the worst US-Israeli rift in decades.

Taking to the television airwaves to make his case directly to the American public, Netanyahu said that by mid-2013, Iran would be 90 percent of the way toward enough enriched uranium for a bomb. He urged the United States to spell out limits that Tehran must not cross if it is to avoid military action – something Obama has refused to do.

Mr. Netanyahu has changed his tune over the past week.

He learned that trying to influence a presidential election if favor of his old pal Mitt Romney was not well received by Americans who were paying attention.

The US has a strong pro-Israeli policy. And a clear position re Iran. Or, as Ehud Barak, former Israeli prime minister, said recently, the current US policy re Israel is the strongest it has ever been.

Mr. Netanyahu has belatedly discovered it is best just to shut up.

  DGarr’s response is the same exact comment posted in numerous other websites under different names showing that this is obviously coming from the murderous muslim propaganda room. These savages are so stupid that they can only repost the same comments because they dont have the brains to create new ones. Don’t worry Israel, these stupid muslim fanatics will always be easy to defeat. Six million Jews in a little country is no match for one billion stupid muslims.

Jonathan Ames, ‘Herring Wonder’ and HBO Series Creator, Does Israel

Writer Jonathan Ames, creator of the HBO television series “Bored to Death,” is known for his fearless and exhibitionistic persona. One can find YouTube videos of him eating herring and boxing at the same time, having knives thrown at him by a person called “Throwdini,” and ranting drunkenly at an awards ceremony. And when it comes to writing, Ames’s essays tend to cover racy topics. Given these exploits, it’s a bit surprising to learn that Ames’s recent trip to Israel [...]

Black Jazz Musician Encounters Mixed Reactions to Subway Renditions of Hatikvah, Hava Hagila

At first you may be skeptical of Isaiah Richardson Jr. He doesn’t look like somebody who would be playing Hava Nagila for passengers waiting for their train in the subway. Firstly, he seems too young, and secondly, he’s a black kid from the Bronx, dressed sharply, derby hat and all. But when upon meeting Isaiah, the 32-year-old ticked off “Hevenu Shalom Aleichem,” “Bashana Haba’ah,” and “Zum Gali Gali” as some of his favorite songs to play passing crowds, I knew [...]
