Zionism a terrifying nightmare
March 1, 2010 by Johnny Punish · 2 Comments
What is a Zionist today? Short answer: One, not necessarily a Jew, who (to quote Balfour) supports the Zionist state of Israel “right or wrong” and who cannot or will not admit that a terrible wrong was done to the Palestinians by Zionism — a wrong that must be acknowledged and then corrected on terms acceptable to the Palestinians if there is ever to be peace and the countdown to catastrophe for all is to be stopped. The Arab word for the catastrophe of the original dispossession of the Palestinians is Nakba. In my view, Zionism’s Nakba denial is as obscene and as evil as denial of the Nazi holocaust.

Book Review for “No Price Too Great” Written by Lee Solomon
January 25, 2010 by Karen St. John · 2 Comments
Lee Solomon was an eighteen-year-old high school drop out when he joined the Marine Corps. He served in Viet Nam during the late 1960s and is a Khe Sanh veteran.
During his tour in Vietnam, the young recruit spent a few days in Hong Kong and developed a soft heart for the women of China. So it was not surprising that years after his service, the former Marine allowed himself to be introduced to a young Chinese woman, via mutual friends. Eventually, Solomon traveled to Hong Kong to introduce himself to his friend, who had become the love of his life.
When questions starting arriving from fellow veterans in similar situations to his, Solomon recognized a real need to document the process of coming together as a couple and establishing a family in America. “No Price Too Great” mirrors the troubling thoughts and raw emotions of a man facing the trials and tribulations entailed in bringing his Chinese love, Ping, and her daughter, to the United States.

Book Review of “Never Fly Solo” Written by Lt. Col. Rob “Waldo” Waldman
January 24, 2010 by Karen St. John · 1 Comment
In his book, “Never Fly Solo,” Lt. Col. Rob “Waldo” Waldman, pilot of the sound-breaking dogfighter the F-16, makes a surprising confession: “You see, I was a claustrophobic fighter pilot with a fear of heights…” In “Never Fly Solo,” the successful pilot talks about the challenges and opportunities that faced him in his chosen career. But “Never Fly Solo” is not about being a pilot. Waldman wrote a book full of tips for being successful in business. The way he figures it, the lifesaving career-making tools he picked up as a claustrophobic fighter pilot could be applied to just about anything and to anyone. And “Never Fly Solo” proves that he is right.
