Yossi Sarid laid to rest in central Israel
"We are taking leave today of a courageous, wise, stubborn and perceptive man," leading Israeli author Amos Oz said in eulogizing writer, broadcaster and former cabinet minister and Knesset member Yossi Sarid, who died on Friday and was laid to rest on Sunday at Kibbutz Ein Hashlosha.
Yossi Sarid / Feiglin, his cronies are fascists by any definition
Each list of candidates is tinted with its own characteristic hue. Sometimes, one drop is enough to paint a whole list. Likud's list offers quite a few rotten drops, and with each drop the cup overflows. The list's color is as brown now as that brown house in Hebron. Likud's official spokespeople did try to console and be consoled yesterday, when they said that the devil isn't all that bad now that it's been pushed down to number 20 on the list.
Elie Wiesel hides ethnic cleansing behind a prayer shawl
This ostensible messenger of peace supports an organization that evicts Palestinians from their homes in East Jerusalem.
The masses really are asses - Opinion - Israel News
Am I arrogant? Or are the arrogant ones those who promise today, in the hope that you will forget tomorrow. Those who treat you like golems, after having created you with their own hands.
Seven idiots in the cabinet - Haaretz - Israel News
This time, it was all foreseeable. Even this newspaper warned in advance about the possibility of defeat in victory. As preparations for the big sea confrontation proceeded, it became increasingly clear that it would end badly. After all, the troops were being prepared by seven idiots and their subordinates - people who cannot see beyond the ends of their noses.
Are Begin and Shamir also considered terrorists? - Haaretz - Israel News
Amir Oren's glance rested for a moment on the press release published by the Defense Ministry that the people who fell on the Altalena were to be defined as "murdered." But there are no murdered people without murderers, and in this case they are David Ben-Gurion (who gave the order ) and Yitzhak Rabin (who commanded the Haganah unit that sank the Irgun ship off the Tel Aviv coast in June 1948 ).

Lieberman Didn’t Know
When is the last time we suspected the innocent? Instead, suspicions end up being proven.

A Suggestion for Commemorating Rabin's Assassination
We learned from a short news item this week that the main event marking the 20th anniversary of Yitzhak Rabin’s assassination will be sponsored by the Council of Youth Movements in Israel. Finally, I said to myself, the huppah of memory will be spread over us from one end to the other — from the left-wing Hashomer Hatzair and Hanoar Haoved Vehalomed to the right-wing Bnei Akiva and...

You Just Have to Be Happy
When happiness is commanded, when doubt or deliberation are forbidden and when even bad things are blessed as happening “for good reason,” it is hardly surprising that the more religious a person is, the “happier” he is. Those poor secular people, whose God is not high up in heaven but close to heart, constantly pestering them.
