My Comment for Today - Thursday, January 2, 2014:

Stop bashing Israel! America is no better my friends - neither is Canada for that matter. During the past few years living in Texas and NYC and traveling North America top to bottom I have been comparing service, culture, bureaucracy. competence, healthcare, education, prices, politeness, service ethics, work ethic, hospitality, security, transportation, consumer protection and many more dynamics that we all love to bash Israel over - only to find that Israel my friends is in very bad company and hardly alone. No more Israel bashing allowed on my watch.

Hey, those who know me know that I am no rah rah sisboombah Aliyah Aliyah guy and that I have lived my share of time as an adult with a family on both sides of the pond - so I say from both personal knowledge and investigative research - enough already! 

Chodesh Tov!
