Jewish Comedy

As you may have noticed I rarely talk about politics on this blog, mainly because I don’t care, and also because my views are so distorted, having worked in politics for both major parties- that I try to steer clear. In fact, I have no idea who I am going to vote for- and will […]

This is my first ever Haviel Halelim so I hope it comes out all right. For all of you who are not aware- a Haviel Halelim is a Jewish Blogger Carnival in which bloggers submit their posts and I put them up with links back to them. I also looked around at several recently updated […]

I was also asked some […]

I guess everyone has to try to be serious some time. This video is insane, about a charedi Jew living on a settlement who converted to Islam with his whole family and moved to East Jerusalem. Lets just say that- this guy took has taken the Niturei Karta philosophy to the extreme and he is […]
