It Is The Glory Of Kings To Conceal A Matter: Part One
I would like to state at the outset that the title of this series of posts does not in fact appear in the Bible. We are all aware of the concealing behaviors of government when it comes to their behaviors, … Continue reading
Book Review: The Netanyahu Years
The Netanyahu Years, y Ben Caspit, translated by Ora Cummings This book was written by a hack. It was also translated by a hack, and by that I can figure that the translator did a good job at translating a … Continue reading
