Shabbat shalom! Holy shit batman, what a week! Last night my son Michael and I sat high above rink side at the TD Garden to cheer on the Boston Bruins in their attempt to stay alive in the NHL playoffs. Despite their best efforts, and the tremendous support of a rabid fan-base, their quest forContinue reading “The Jew News Review – May 18, 2024 – “World Happiness””

The Jew News Review – May 11, 2024 – “What would your mother think?”
Shabbat shalom! A tip of the kippah this week to all the mothers out there, especially my own, who at 93 years young, is still going strong and who I consider to be the matriarch of the JNR! Mothers have always been held in high regard within our crazy culture, almost always considered paragons ofContinue reading “The Jew News Review – May 11, 2024 – “What would your mother think?””
The Jew News Review – May 4, 2024 – “The intifada will be catered”
Shabbat shalom! In the midst of all the campus chaos and 24/7 reminders that everyone hates the Jews, we had a most pleasurable distraction in attending our grandson Max’s shabbat service at his school within Temple Sinai. “L’Dor v’dor” as they say, and a very welcome way to balance out the bad Jew news withContinue reading “The Jew News Review – May 4, 2024 – “The intifada will be catered””
The Jew News Review – April 27, 2024 – “Useful idiots”
Shabbat shalom. Spring has finally sprung around New England. Soon, our cherry tree buds will pop open with a breathtaking display of pink, creating a scene right out of a Claude Monet painting that literally stops people on their walks to capture nature’s beauty on their phone cameras. Meanwhile, the gardens are popping with newContinue reading “The Jew News Review – April 27, 2024 – “Useful idiots””
The Jew News Review – April 20, 2024 – “The only genocide since October 7 is of the truth”
Shabbat shalom and chag sameach. I am a big Passover fan. Every year family and friends gather at our house, as people all over the world have been doing for over 5000 years, to celebrate the Exodus story of liberation and freedom. “Ma nishtana” (literally, “what has changed”) we ask ourselves, and then proceed toContinue reading “The Jew News Review – April 20, 2024 – “The only genocide since October 7 is of the truth””
The Jew News Review – April 13, 2024 – “Chazak v’ematz”
Shabbat shalom! We are heading north to the great state of Maine for a birthday celebration this morning. Hence, this will be a different form of the JNR this week. As I write this post, Israel is expecting, at any moment, some kind of retaliation from Iran for the suspected Israeli strike that killed aContinue reading “The Jew News Review – April 13, 2024 – “Chazak v’ematz””
The Jew News Review – April 6, 2024 – “Bring them home”
Shabbat shalom. This morning, as LBJ use to say, I come to you with a heavy heart. My heart is heavy from grief – not just over the horrible accidental killing of the seven innocent aide workers, but also, grief over the soul of Israel. Hamas may be diminished in its military capability, but itContinue reading “The Jew News Review – April 6, 2024 – “Bring them home””
The Jew News Review – March 30, 2024 – TTBS, Veto vote, aide madness, and Jewish sports stars
Shabbat shalom! And a tip of the kippah this week to Daniel Kahneman, the Israeli born 2002 Nobel Prize winner who virtually invented behavioral economics, who passed away this last week at the age of 90. Kahneman and his collaborator, Amos Tversky’s work illuminated how the human mind uses two systems of thinking – one fast,Continue reading “The Jew News Review – March 30, 2024 – TTBS, Veto vote, aide madness, and Jewish sports stars”
The Jew News Review – March 23, 2024 – Israel Alone?
Shabbat shalom! A quick shout out of sympathy for the victims and their families of the horrendous terrorist attack in Moscow. More proof, unfortunately, that jihadism is a global threat to the civilized world. And a tip of the kippah this week to Eon Productions, producers of the James Bond movie franchise. They have offeredContinue reading “The Jew News Review – March 23, 2024 – Israel Alone?”
The Jew News Review – March 16, 2024 – “Do your job”
Shabbat shalom! This will be a different JNR this week as we are heading to Washington DC for a weekend of family celebrations in honor of a milestone birthday for my sister Phyllis. Happy birthday Sis! It’s getting tougher everyday to continue to support Israel as they plan to continue the battle with Hamas inContinue reading “The Jew News Review – March 16, 2024 – “Do your job””
