One Jerusalem: Thank you for this interview Lord, we know that you are quite busy these days.
El: It is my pleasure Man. I am here for you…
One Jerusalem: With hopes that we shall dedicate ourselves to your service?

A home renovation in the Old City of Jerusalem yielded an unusual Arabic inscription offering insight into the history of Muslim rule in the holy city.
The fragment of the 1,100-year-old plaque was probably made by an army veteran expressing his thanks for a land grant from the Caliph al-Muqtadir, whom the inscription names “Emir of [...]

On Sunday, The Ministerial Committee on Legislative Affairs approved the expansion of a bill banning fur trade in Israel.
The committee unanimously approved an amendment to Knesset Member Ronit Tirosh’s bill, which called for the prohibition of the trade of the fur of cats and dogs. Currently the bill calls for a ban on the trade [...]
More than 2000-years-old, the Dead Sea Scrolls are far from being a dead issue. A couple of months ago I posted about a battle between two top Jewish American intellectuals who differ in opinion as to who wrote the Scrolls – one held that they were wrote by the Ascetic Jewish sect, the Essenes, where [...]
On Tuesday, the Austrian government volunteered to pay 20 million Euros – that is $28.5 million for the restoration of the country’s oldest Jewish cemeteries.
“It was a matter of Austrian responsibility, of respect for history, for fellow Jewish citizens and for the cultural heritage of this country,” said Chancellor Werner Faymann. “Delaying the decision [...]
It is widely held, almost certain that Hezbollah has thousands of rockets and missiles hidden in bunkers and basements throughout Shiite areas of Lebanon.
The tiny country’s new government is a flimsy coalition of Western-backed countries and of course Hezbollah, which retains virtual veto power over the government. On Wednesday the new government endorsed the [...]
It’s set in the lowest point on Earth, and it’s the saltiest lake on Earth – surrounded by a beach of splendid salt crystals, and breathtaking mountains. The Dead Sea is one of Israel’s natural wonders, and it has been one of the wonders of my life. It is actually one of the natural wonders [...]
A group of bereaved mothers, including Miki Goldwasser, Rona Ramon and Esther Wachsman, sent a letter to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu this week, requesting to meet with him urgently to advance the release of captive IDF soldier Gilad Shalit.
They wrote that they are a group that “knows a thing or two about losing loved [...]
Searching for the truth about Jewish History became a game of deceit and backstabbing last week in America. There are two schools of thought regarding the origins of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Many historians claim that they were written by a scribe from the ascetic Jewish sect the Essenes, of whom it is also claimed [...]
During an overnight raid on Tuesday last week, the Israeli Navy, about 100 nautical miles off the coast west of Israel and near Cyprus, seized hundreds of tons of weaponry on a ship sailing with an Antiguan flag. The weaponry was sent by Iran and destined for Hezbollah, in Syria.

Israeli security and intelligence got a bit of a wake-up call today, October 27, when an Indian man, living in New York, and his accomplice were charged with providing guns and other weapons to Hezbollah.
Patrick Nayyar, 46, who has for years been living illegally in New York City, “agreed to provide weapons, ammunition, vehicles and [...]
My wedding has finally made it to the news. No, I don’t think the state of Israel particularly cares whether I, personally, got married or not, but here’s what I mean. When I started asking people about the bureaucracy of getting married in Israel, many people scared me half to death, or at least disgust. [...]
This is something you don’t see everyday.
This is the testimony of Col. Richard Kemp. He disagrees with Goldstone Report that claims that IDF committed war crimes in Operation Cast Lead.
His resume includes (his words): former commander of the British forces in Afghanistan, service in NATO and the United Nations, commander in Northern Ireland, Bosnia [...]
Rumor’s a ‘brewin! Now this sounds all cloak-and-dagger and such. Begin playing Mission Impossible Theme now. It indeed looks and seems so, and if so, then talk about really good timing on God’s part, or whoever’s in charge of comas these days, Chance, or something.
Supposedly, a guy named Michael Ledeen, a specialist on Iran [...]
