Eric Scheiner: Biden: Obama Will Act on Guns, Can Use Executive Orders—”But the president is going to act,” he [Biden] said. “There are executive orders, executive action, that can be taken. We haven’t decided what that is yet. But we’re compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and all the rest of the cabinet members–as well as legislative action we believe is required.”

Ezekiel 40: 44-47
From the outside to the inner gate were chambers for the singers in the inner court, one of which was at the side of the north gate, with its front toward the south, and one at the side of the south gate facing toward the north. He said to me, “This is the chamber which faces toward the south, intended for the priests who keep charge of the temple; but the chamber which faces toward the north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who from the sons of Levi come near to Yahweh to minister to Him.” He measured the court, a perfect square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide; and the altar was in front of the temple.

His Name is Yahweh explains why the Name of God, Yahweh, is so important. It’s available in eBook format and in paperback.
- God also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘Yahweh, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’ This [Yahweh] is my name forever, the name by which I am to be remembered from generation to generation.” (Exodus 3: 15)
- “Therefore behold, I am going to make them know—this time I will make them know My power and My might; and they shall know that My name is Yahweh.” (Jeremiah 16: 21)
- “Behold, the days are coming,” declares Yahweh, “when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch; and He will reign as king and act wisely and do justice and righteousness in the land. In His days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell securely; and this is His name by which He will be called, ‘Yahweh our righteousness.’” (Jeremiah 23: 5-6)
- Yeshua said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.” (John 8: 58)

Isi Leibler: Hagel nomination conveys chilling message— It will signal that Israel’s relationship with the Obama administration may be more turbulent than we had hoped.
Prof. Alexander Bligh: Beware of Palestinian reconciliation— Drawing Israel into a violent campaign at home would facilitate the Arab efforts to portray Israel as the aggressors and divert Israel’s focus from attacking Iran.
Jack Kemp: The Connecticut Bill to ‘Out’ Gun Owners Shows Us a Nationalized Issue—Some of our “betters” in the halls of government are becoming shockingly brazen in their calls to have us treated like criminals for lawfully procuring the means to defend ourselves.
Katie Pavlich: The Need for Semi-Automatic “Assault” Weapons— “One of our security guards was killed,” Kee Whan Ha told NPR in April 2012, 20 years after the riots took place. “I didn’t see any police patrol car whatsoever. It’s a wide open area. It was like the Wild West in the old days, there was nothing there, we were the only ones left.” Business owner Richard Rhee felt the same way and told the Los Angeles Times, “Burn this down after 33 years?… They don’t know how hard I’ve worked. This is my market and I’m going to protect it.”
Victor Davis Hanson: When Big Deficits Became Good—As a senator and presidential candidate, Barack Obama said that he detested budget deficits. In 2006, when the aggregate national debt was almost $8 trillion less than today, he blasted George W. Bush’s chronic borrowing and refused to vote for upping the debt ceiling: “Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here.'”
Larry Elder: The Food Stamp Economy—The New York Post headline read: “Could You Spend $500 on Food at This Bodega? A Welfare Recipient Claimed To!” A few days later, another headline: “Welfare Recipients Take Out Cash at Strip Clubs, Liquor Stores and X-Rated Shops.” “They’re on the dole — and watching the pole,” wrote the Post. “Welfare recipients took out cash at bars, liquor stores, X-rated video shops, hookah parlors and even strip clubs — where they presumably spent their taxpayer money on lap dances rather than diapers.”
Christopher Chantrill: President Obama and the Prisoner’s Dilemma—The word about negotiations is that Speaker Boehner has vowed not to negotiate one-on-one with President Obama anymore. It’s about time. Now, here’s how to do it right.
Lauri B. Regan: Flexibility Comes Home to Roost—The man they chose to lead America’s decline in the 21st century does not like America, abhors Israel, and resents those who achieve success in a democratic, capitalist society.
Lori Lowenthal Marcus: ‘J Street’ Loves Chuck Hagel and the Treif in his Bagel— Often, when a group wants to hound someone with an opposing viewpoint, they will offer to donate one financial unit for every time the opponent does something the donor dislikes. The kicker, though, is that the donation is made to a group or cause the opponent abhors, thereby creating a disincentive for the bad actor to continue his actions, which have become the source of support for the opposing viewpoint.
Boaz Bismuth: Hageltopia: Hagel and His Original Ideas About the “Jewish Lobby”—There were plenty of good candidates to pick from for the post of next U.S. Secretary of Defense. For President Barack Obama, Chuck Hagel was the natural choice. He’s a Republican, a clear isolationist, a proponent of extensive defense budget cuts, and opposes involvement in overseas adventures (including in Iran)…
Shoshana Bryen: Where the Pressure Lies in the Middle East—As Fatah struggles for relevance, King Abdullah of Jordan tries to play to all sides (including Israel).
Rafael Medoff: ‘Beethoven Was a Zionist’: A Memoir From Israel on the Eve of its Creation—“Today I saw The Land for the first time, and it was beautiful.” With those simple but moving words, veteran American Zionist activist Harold…
Eli. E. Hertz: State Department Legitimizes Terror— To whom did the Obama administration grant permission to fly the Palestinian Liberation Organization [PLO] flag in Washington D.C.?
Guy Bechor: Arab Spring’s Side Effects: Threats Against Israel—One of the side effects of the “Arab Spring” virus are the threats and insults directed at Israel. All of the Mideast’s leaders – including both the “moderates” and the “extremists” – are threatening or cursing Israel, be it Ahmadinejad or Erdogan, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Syrian rebels, the Palestinian Authority and Jordan. But there is no connection between Israel and the dire economic and social situation in the Arab world; ethnic groups against ethnic groups; tribes against tribes; religions against religions; violence and blood.
Efraim Karsh: Israel’s Arabs: Deprived or Radicalized?—Thanks to Israeli health care, the average Israeli Arab male can expect to live longer than his American and many European counterparts. Since Israel’s founding, its Arab population has grown tenfold, while the number of Arab schoolchildren has multiplied by a factor of 40. During the past twelve years, relative investment in Arab education has far exceeded that in the Jewish sector.
Noman Benotman and Roisin Blake: Jabhat al-Nusra, a Leading Islamist Group Fighting Assad in Syria—Jabhat al-Nusra (JN) is a Syrian jihadist group fighting against Bashar al-Assad’s Ba’athist regime, with the aim of establishing an Islamist state in Syria. With approximately 5,000 members, JN has often been described as the most effective group fighting in the conflict. There are a number of similarities between JN and Al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI), which serves as evidence of their shared history beginning in the early 2000s.
Michael Singh: Patience, Not Panic, on Israeli-Palestinian Peace— There is a view that only tough love from Washington and European capitals – in the form of a dictated peace plan or other such ultimatum – can salvage any hope for Israeli-Palestinian peace, and ultimately secure Israel’s own survival. But analysts who fret that the Israeli election will diminish prospects for peace have confused cause and effect.
U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen: Example of Why U.S. Funds Should Not Go To The Palestinian Authority Or Gaza— U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), Chairman of the Middle East and South Asia Subcommittee, made the following statement today following an unprecedented rally in Gaza by the Mahmoud Abbas led Fatah party.
Daniel Pipes: Using Cold War Tactics to Confront Iran— As Americans seek to find an alternative to the stark and unappetizing choice between acceptance of Iran’s rabid leadership having nuclear weapons or pre-emptively bombing its nuclear facilities, one analyst offers a credible third path. Interestingly, it’s inspired by a long-ago policy toward a different foe — the Reagan administration’s way of handling the Soviet Union — yet this unlikely model offers a useful prototype.
Bridget Johnson: Is Keystone XL DOA in Term No. 2?—With the campaign and its associated vote-reaping rhetoric behind him, President Obama may now feel it’s time to kill the Keystone XL pipeline once and for all. At least that’s what environmental groups are gunning for — and what Obama’s secretary of State nominee would be happy to do.
Bryan Preston: The Problem with John Kerry and Chuck Hagel: They Are Products of the Vietnam Generation—The American military has learned the lessons of Vietnam and applied them as much as possible to the conflicts that have followed. But John Kerry and Chuck Hagel are stuck there in that war that they fought in, and lost. It’s not fair to blame them for that. But it’s also not fair to subject this and future generations to Vietnam Syndrome and its obsessive defeatism.
Evelyn Gordon: Israelis Lose Faith In International Guarantees—In an interview with The Jerusalem Post last month, Czech Ambassador to Israel Tomas Pojar was asked to comment on recent remarks by Israel’s then-foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, who compared European countries’ oft-proclaimed commitment to Israel’s security to their commitments to Czechoslovakia in the 1930s. Pojar replied, correctly, that the parallel isn’t exact; there are many differences between Israel’s situation today and Czechoslovakia’s in 1938.
Udi Dekel and Orit Perlov— Following Egypt’s Constitutional Referendum: Polarization and Collapse Egyptian Discourse on the Social Networks, January 2013—In the two rounds of voting in the referendum onEgypt’s constitution (December 15 and December 22, 2012), only 17 million Egyptians – 32 percent of the 52 million Egyptians eligible to vote – cast ballots. Of these, 10 million, that is, 64 percent of those voting, voted in favor of the constitution, and 7 million, 36 percent, voted against. For every 100 Egyptians, 20 voted in favor, 12 voted against, and 68 did not bother to vote.
Michelle Malkin: The Blind Sheik and Our Mute President—Egypt’s terror-coddling President Mohamed Morsi has repeated his arrogant demand that America free convicted 1993 World Trade Center mastermind Omar Abdel-Rahman. I’d like to report that President Obama repeated his unequivocal rejection of the Muslim Brotherhood leader’s entreaties. But as of this writing, no such public statement or restatement yet exists.
Brent Bozell: Al Gore, Super-Rich Sellout—So when Gore sold his left-wing cable channel Current TV to Al-Jazeera for $500 million, where were they? Despite the fact that conservatives thought the deal sounded like a ridiculous April Fools’ joke, the networks had nearly nothing to say. ABC skipped it entirely. CBS and NBC offered a perfunctory sentence on a couple of newscasts.
Ben Shapiro: Leftist America: Obama Opponents ‘A–Holes’—This week’s column is brought to you by the word “a–holes.” It’s one of the left’s favorite words these days, fond as they are of shutting down the debate and casting their political opponents out like lepers.
George Friedman: The Crisis of the Middle Class and American Power—Last week I wrote about the crisis of unemployment in Europe. I received a great deal of feedback, with Europeans agreeing that this is the core problem and Americans arguing that the United States has the same problem, asserting that U.S. unemployment is twice as high as the government’s official unemployment rate. My counterargument is that unemployment in the United States is not a problem in the same sense that it is in Europe because it does not pose a geopolitical threat. The United States does not face political disintegration from unemployment, whatever the number is. Europe might.
John Rosemond: Children need courage, not self-confidence— Whenever I talk on the subject of self-esteem, how the research strongly suggests that people with high regard for themselves have correspondingly low regard for others and that high self-esteem is highly associated with antisocial behavior like bullying, people become understandably perplexed. After all, the notion that a state of high self-esteem is desirable has become as “American” as mom and apple pie.
Jonathan Tobin: Hagel Backers Trying to Redefine Pro-Israel— Chuck Hagel told the Lincoln Journal Star this week there wasn’t “one shred of evidence that [he is] anti-Israeli.” President Obama’s nominee to be secretary of defense claimed the criticism of his record and statements on both Israel and Iran is nothing but “falsehoods and distortions.”
Thomas Lifson: Teachers Union Head: Kill the Rich—Legitimizing political violence a step at a time.

Blessings in the Book of Revelation is a book that you need to read, especially now. There are blessings throughout the Scriptures but Revelation is the only book in the Bible actually containing a specific blessing for reading it. It’s repeated twice, once at the beginning and again at the end. This is the reason that I believe Revelation should be the first step toward studying biblical prophecy. Though not easy to do, Revelation can be broken down and understood by anyone, not just the academic elite. So, Revelation’s blessings are for everyone. Click here to order the eBook.
