The value of a single human being: A way to stop the Palestinian Authority from paying for murder  

By Martha Cohen, TOI

“The principle of criminal law in every civilized society has this in common. Any person who sways another to commit murder; any person who furnishes a lethal weapon for the purpose of the crime; any person who is an accessory to the crime, is guilty.” — Judge Dan Haywood

This line is part of a riveting speech given by Judge Haywood, played brilliantly by Spencer Tracy, as prelude to the verdict he is about to pass on the four German judges and prosecutors who are on trial for crimes against humanity in post-WWII Germany in the 1961 film “Judgment at Nuremberg.” The film was inspired by what is referred to as the “judges trial,” which was held in Nuremberg after the war.

The Temple Mount, the UNESCO vote and Western shame  

By Barry Shaw

Temple Mount1UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, voted on October 13, 2016 against the very principles upon which it was created.

UNESCO was founded in 1945 after World War II in order to establish humanity’s moral and intellectual solidarity. It says it strives to build networks among nations in order to enable this kind of solidarity.

These were its founding principles. Oh, how have the mighty fallen.

Israel is just amazing.  

We should all move to Israel, the world’s mirage

By Giulio Meotti, INN

knesset3Israel today has what most of Western countries don’t have in terms of economic growth, security, internal dynamism and optimism.

The State of Israel is silently rewriting the map of friends and enemies, adding more and more to the first category. There are the improved ties with economic powerhouses such as Japan, China, Russia, South Korea, Singapore and India. There is the increasing cooperation with Greece and Cyprus. There is the new normalization with Turkey. There is the new liason with dozens of African nations: Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania, Guinea, Chad, South Sudan, Zambia and Ivory Coast.

INTO THE FRAY- Obama:The Blame Bibi bears  

By MARTIN SHERMAN

If one knows a storm is brewing, but takes no measures to prepare for it, when the storm hits, who is to blame for the damage? The storm… or those who did not prepare for it?

“If the aim of the Israeli government is to prevent a peace deal with the Palestinians, now or in the future, it’s close to realizing that goal. Last week, it approved the construction of a new Jewish settlement in the West Bank, another step in the steady march under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to build on land needed to create a Palestinian state…The Obama administration, with every justification, strongly condemned the action as a betrayal of the idea of a two-state solution in the Middle East. But Mr. Netanyahu obviously doesn’t care what Washington thinks, so it will be up to President Obama to find another way to preserve that option before he leaves office.”

OUR WORLD: The liberating responsibility of atonement  

The Jewish people and the Jewish state face extraordinary challenges today. Luckily, we can handle all of them. But to do so, we need to be capable of judging ourselves fairly.

By CAROLINE B. GLICK, The Jerusalem Post

New IDF chief of staff Lieutenant-General Gadi Eizenkot (L) and outgoing chief of staff Benny Gantz

Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the Jewish year because it is the day that the Torah sets aside for us to reckon with ourselves. We are commanded to give an accounting – before our fellow men and before God – for our actions in the previous year. We must make amends to both for our misdeeds. And since none of us is perfect, every one of us has things to atone for.

Yom Kippur’s power stems from a basic assumption that forms its core. That assumption is that we are all moral agents. We all have to make an accounting.
