ACLJ Stands on the Law In Response To MRFF Attacks
I must confess that I am an unabashed fan of Yogi Berra. In his own inimitable way, he was a master at re-formulating the English language. He could encapsulate more common sense in one, often humorous, stream-of-consciousness quote than almost anyone I know of. My choice for today is: “It’s déjà

More Palestinian Rocket Attacks Hammer Israel
They did it again. Only weeks after some of the most violent attacks on Israel in years, more rockets rained down on Israeli communities. Israel’s enemies would like the world to somehow view them as victims, as they accuse Israel of war crimes and aggression. Yet once again, red alert sirens were...
Obama Admin. Knew It Was Funding Anti-Israel Group

Vigilance Required as We Stand with Israel
