Wow! Ongoing access is a nice change!

One small problem: as the behavioral economists say, too many choices can be confusing. I find myself spending a lot of time (already too much) with Facebook and Twitter, and not enough on my video production ( a couple of tuepeace.org vid's, awaiting approval, notwithstanding), or this blog. Actually, with a backlog of nearly a month's worth of material; even writing the blog seems a bit like a distraction.

I have discovered that one can have too many Facebook friends. When I finally found my old musician friend, Sam Bush, on Facebook, he was already overloaded with over 5,000. Be forewarned.

Mr PM Netanyahu delivered his ideas for a settlement of the sitch in the Middle East and, not surprisingly, no one but Mr PM Netanyahu really likes 'em. The Israeli Jews don't trust the Arabs (not much of a surprise there), the Arabs don't like the idea of disarming in exchange for their giveaways (no surprise at all there), and I don't like the absence of an announcement that Israel is finally taking control of Temple Mount and breaking ground on the Third Temple.

The Obama Admin is making positive noises in public, but their insistance on a cessation of settlement activity - even to accomodate "natural growth" - is, to say the least, very disturbing. Obviously too disturbing for Mr PM Netanyahu to mention in his address.

Of course, as mentioned in one of my two new vids for truepeace.org, the problem is neither political nor a matter of real estate. The problem is the never-ending hatred and targeting of Jews throughout the world, even in this goldene medina, even in our own ancestral land - especially in our own ancestral land. Check out Shimon Posner's original on http://shmais.com, or the video on truepeace.org and/or YouTube, channel truepeace770

It is, of course, the most obvious manifestation of the golus which, as we know only too well, sucks!

Moshiach Now!
