Less Beck, More Beatles
Forget all the rhetoric from Glenn Beck and his ilk Christian Zionists and their proclamations of "love" for Jews in general and Israeli Jews in particular. Suffice to say, I don't find anything loving coming from a man who compared Reform rabbis and Reform Judaism to "radicalized Islam. Let's forget the pounding Moshe Feiglin has taken for a very thoughtful op-ed on Israel National News. Forget all of the "Christians are the only friend Israel has."

I say, more Beatles, Less Beck! Next month, go to You Tube and check out the videos of Paul McCartney's Tel Aviv concert in 2008. The crowd reaction in the Hello/Goodbye video is simply amazing. I have never seen anything like that at a concert in my life! In another video, Paul says a simple "toda Tel Aviv toda." At the end of the video, an Israeli faan says a simple "toda raba."

That concert is more meaningul and sincere than anything that will be said at Beck's rally (which had, B'H been moved from the Temple Mount). Let's not forget that Hamas threatened McCartney, threatened him with suicide bombers.

He came anyway.


BTW, I haven't posted in days due to blogger problems and Google not accepting either of my two emails to log in.
