The Jew News Review – September 12, 2025 – “Lowering Our Stupidity Quotient (SQ) with Kindness”

Shabbat shalom. Oy vey iz mir, what a week.  My heart goes out to the family of Charlie Kirk. Although he was a “steadfast friend of Israel”, he was better known as a man of far right conservative opinions, a flame thrower in the culture wars, and very popular with the younger generations. He wasContinue reading “The Jew News Review – September 12, 2025 – “Lowering Our Stupidity Quotient (SQ) with Kindness””

The Jew News Review – August 29, 2025 – “We Are What We Celebrate!?”

Shabbat shalom! In his recent book, The Haves and the Have Yachts, Evan Osnos paints a grimly comic portrait of the billionaire class. I met Osnos recently at a book festival, and after his presentation, I asked him to compare the robber barons of the gilded age to today’s tech billionaires in terms of their levelContinue reading “The Jew News Review – August 29, 2025 – “We Are What We Celebrate!?””

The Jew News Review – March 15, 2025- “Beware the Ides of March”

Shabbat shalom!  A quick tip of the kippah to Wendy Sachs, author, documentary filmmaker and Director and Executive Producer of the newly released film, “October 8”. Over the last 17 months, we have watched in shock as Ivy League campuses became hotbeds of support for terrorists and their ideology. A powerful new documentary that the AcademyContinue reading “The Jew News Review – March 15, 2025- “Beware the Ides of March””

The Jew News Review – March 8, 2025 – “Blizzard of bullshit”

Shabbat shalom. Let’s begin on a positive note with a tip of the kippah to Samer Sinjlawi, a member of the Palestinian Fatah organization affiliated with the Muhammad Dahlan camp, the former leader of Gaza who was eventually overthrown by Hamas. Last week, Sinjlawi visited Yarden Bibas and during his visit, told Yarden that heContinue reading “The Jew News Review – March 8, 2025 – “Blizzard of bullshit””

The Jew News Review – Special midweek edition – “Theater of the absurd”

Shabbat shalom.  The orange man continues to flood the zone with his clown show chaos at “muzzle velocity”, doing his best to distract the media, build upon his momentum and take advantage of sleepy Democrats and spineless Republicans (the latter clearly a redundancy) in order to do what? Put the country through a DOGE directedContinue reading “The Jew News Review – Special midweek edition – “Theater of the absurd””

The Jew News Review – February 1, 2025 – “Special Reprint – “It’s up to us” by Steve Schmidt”

Shabbat shalom!  We are traveling all day today, snow birding our way to better and warmer weather for the month. Hence, I am taking the weekend off, but have reprinted a post from Steve Schmidt I think you will enjoy. For those not familiar with Steve, he is a self-avowed “Never Trumper”, best known forContinue reading “The Jew News Review – February 1, 2025 – “Special Reprint – “It’s up to us” by Steve Schmidt””

The Jew News Review – January 10, 2024 – “Paradise Lost?”

Shabbat shalom.  Several JNR readers, friends and family alike, reside in the Los Angeles area, some currently under threat of the Palisades fire heading east, or some new conflagration erupting in urban/suburban areas that were once thought to be safe from any Santa Ana wind-whipped flames. As of this morning, at least 11 deaths fromContinue reading “The Jew News Review – January 10, 2024 – “Paradise Lost?””

The Jew News Review – October 18, 2024 – Special Edition – “A great day for the world”

Shabbat Shalom!  Yesterday we learned that the great Satan, Yahya Sinwar, was killed by a few Israeli grunts on a routine operation in Rafah. After an IDF infantry drone picked up movement in a building, near to where the six hostages were murdered, gunfire was exchanged and a tank shell lit up the building killingContinue reading “The Jew News Review – October 18, 2024 – Special Edition – “A great day for the world””

The Jew News Review – November 2, 2024 – “Vote for Kamala”

Shabbat shalom!  No Jewy stuff today. This is my last post before “the most consequential election” in my lifetime. I hate that this term has become a cliche, but here we are. It should not be a difficult choice. On the one hand, we have the orange turd, aka Donny Dumb-fuck (DDF), who in hisContinue reading “The Jew News Review – November 2, 2024 – “Vote for Kamala””

The Jew News Review – October 5, 2024 – “The bold. The beautiful. The fat bear.”

Shabbat shalom! It’s a busy holiday weekend, so I am ignoring the avalanche of news and the normal JNR posting this week. But, I am too excited to also ignore a relatively new US tradition that kicked off last week and will continue into next week. That would be Fat Bear Week.  Fat Bear Week isContinue reading “The Jew News Review – October 5, 2024 – “The bold. The beautiful. The fat bear.””
