My friend Myron Sugarman has had a varied career – by his own word “gangster,” helper of Simon Wiesenthal in tracking down Nazis in South America, author of a spellbinding book on his life, and tireless emailer every day to two thousand “blind copy” followers on issues confronting us. In expressing his views, timidity isn’t his shtik. To get on his list, just email charming@eclipse.net. That’s not a typo. By me, Myron’s a sheyner yid, but if he’s “charming” then Yitzhak Shamir was the King of Kuwait.
Trump’s the American President whose actions match “Iran will never achieve nuclear bombs.” He deserves the support of Americans as he has Israelis.
India stands alone among the world’s big countries where Jews have not faced antisemitism. Both Israel and India have fought with neighboring Muslim states. There’s meaning in India’s Modi visiting Israel now.
Analysts say President Trump is being advised on potential Mideast military action in conjunction with Israel and possibly even the Kurds that would deal with multiple “hot spots” and send clear messages to Russia and China.
With both President Trump and Vice President Vance stating “Israel will not annex the West Bank,” we must make the case to them not only that “West Bank” and “annex” are pejoratives, but that “the two-state solution,” to which there’s an equitable alternative, would turn our Jewish national home into a 9-miles-wide in the middle indefensible Jewishly meaningless Jewish national ghetto.
