The Prophet Speaks–Again
Much is happening in our world as we pray for the Olympics, watch stock markets tumble, see Kamala Harris pick a radical VP, and intercede against a larger war between Iran and Israel.
My heart has always loved the Jewish prophets for their clarity on good and evil. That national wisdom seems to be carried on in some political commentators such as the late Charles Krauthammer and Dennis Prager.
Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, spoke truth to a joint session of Congress in Washington, D.C. on July 24, 2024. I have previously shared his prophetic perspective on world events.

The Truth About Israel, Gaza, and Hamas
It’s amazing that Israel, a nation of only 8,000 square miles and nine million people (same as New Jersey) sits at the center of world attention. There’s only one reasonable explanation:

The Jewish Mistake in America
While family is visiting this week from California I will turn to Dennis Prager, one of my favorite commentators, to share what I’ve been thinking about Jews in America.
Prager (Jewish) and Victor Davis Hanson (Christian) are my two go-to columnists. While other commentators might be as smart on culture, political commentary, and social issues, both Prager and Hanson have a 30,000 foot view of the “Big Ideas” that few possess.
Their writings are normally quite profound.
Pager says that American Jews have made a great mistake. I agree.
Here’s what it is.
