| Description: |
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for twenty-seven years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 5 to 25 years and one grandson. Our eldest daughter and eldest son are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com |

The occasion was a visit by 'moderate' 'Palestinian' President for life Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen.

Did Obama just sign on to the Bush letter?
Remember the Bush letter from 2004 that acknowledged 'new realities on the ground' and promised that Israel could keep the 'settlement blocs'? Remember how the Obama administration caused so much bad blood with Israel by loudly rejecting the Bush letter? If Barry Rubin is reading Secretary of State Clinton's statement on the 'settlement freeze' correctly, the Obama administration just might have
