The 5 Towns Jewish Times

3 weeks ago | 5tjt.com | Larry Gordon |Dini Franklin

By Larry GordonWe cannot blame Donald Trump for not trying to put things in order here in the U.S. as well as internationally. It looks and sounds like he has a handle on an array of issues and who knows? Maybe he will be able to accomplish some of his highly ambitious plans. So far one thing is for certain: none of what he has set out to do will be easy to accomplish.

By Larry GordonSo, you don’t like Donald Trump’s brash and direct approach to putting America back on the course it was intended to be from the start. It’s definitely true that the U.S. does not need to annex or purchase Canada or Greenland. Frankly, it does not seem that Trump is truly or completely serious about these so-called land cessions, if you will. But what about Gaza? On some days that idea seems wilder than Greenland or Canada.

By Larry GordonWhether on the campus of Columbia University or their associated school, Barnard College, whether here in New York or any campus around the country or around the world, the rallies and protests in favor of the terrorists of Hamas and against the Jews and Israel are easily explained as a manifestation of the war of Amalek against the Jews.

By Larry Gordon500 is the number of days since the Hamas death merchants slammed their way through the flimsy fence that separated Israel from the terrorists of Gaza, who proceeded to rampage, shoot, and kill anyone in sight. On that day, 1,200 were killed, including 360 people at the Nova Music Festival. No one could have guessed all those months ago that this crisis would continue for so long. In Israel’s history, they have never fought a war this way.

By Larry GordonIn a manner of speaking, it’s close to what it’s like to fall in love with someone. It’s not that I’m so enamored with Donald Trump as much as I’m enamored with the fact that we finally have a real president in the White House after so many years of bungling and inefficiency by the previous administration.

By Larry GordonHe urged listeners to unite along the lines of our traditional Biblical values by quoting our first president, George Washington, who said that faith and morality are the indispensable support of American prosperity. The U.S. has a long way to go to get back to its core beliefs that built this country, but at the same time has been seriously hampered by leadership over the last four years that sought to downgrade what it means to be an American citizen as halt.

I wish I knew what President Trump had in mind when he said that if the hostages in Gaza are not released by the time he’s sworn in there will be “hell to pay.”That sounds really good and strong, but what does it really mean? We know that by their own admission, the Biden Administration has been a colossal failure on all their policies and strategies, but especially in how they handled the crisis and ongoing battles in the Middle East.

By my count it was the third time. That is, the third time I was honored by being the sandak at the bris of one of my grandsons. I don’t think I was the sandak for any of my four boys. That would have been too much. But now that I’m older, not necessarily wiser, and although I’ve always been reluctant to be that close to the action, I figured out that sooner or later I’d have to give in, go with the flow, and “Just Do It” as the sneaker company motto goes.

We’ve been here in Florida for a few weeks now and truthfully, it has been the longest amount of time we’ve ever been away from home. My sons, Yochanan and Dovi, who work with me on this publication, will tell you (as they regularly tell me), that I can be away for as long as I want and I can’t necessarily disagree with them since in this modern technological age, distance has a minimal impact on what you do unless you’re doing root canals. I think we may get there some day, but not just yet.
