Through a chain of events and people I have met online, I became aware of the Middle East Radio Forum (MERF), hosted by Attorney William J. Wolf, based in Phoenix. I have listened from time to time, as most of the time we are out and about Sunday at noon.
Friend Dr. Steve Carol, retired historian, sent out an email imploring his email list to listed this past Sunday, August 12. I was home, so I did. I am very glad I did.
The guest was Professor Paul Eidelberg with the The Foundation for Constitutional Democracy, interviewed from Israel. The topic was "The lack of leadership in Israel and is a 2 state solution possible?"
Professor Eidelberg went into detail on the political realities in Israel and the way the system is set up there. Although we know Israel to be a democracy, the peculiar circumstances he detailed were revealing and insightful Riveting in fact, for an outsider looking in. I recall thinking more than once, "That explains a lot...."
The Israelis are castigated from time to time in American intellectual and cultural forums for the perceived apathy and malaise of the populace. It is not like that. Professor Eidelberg explains why. I firmly urge you to listen to the August 12 broadcast, which is now archived. It will be an hour well spent, whether you are a Jewish American or a Christian supporter of national Israel.
With an interview like this one with Professor Eidelberg in mind, you will find your view of the Israeli electorate less frustrated.
Middle East Radio Forum (MERF) is a talk-radio program with listener participation about historical and current events as to the Middle East with an emphasis on the Arab/Israeli Conflict. It is broadcast live from Phoenix every Sunday at noon (Pacific time), KKNT 960 AM, and available worldwide on the Internet at www.kknt960.com. William J. Wolf deserves our full attention. This program is very interesting!

" ... It's time we recognized the nature of the conflict. It's total war and we are all involved. Nobody on our side is exempted because of age, gender, or handicap. The Islamofacists have stolen childhood from the world."—FReeper Retief
"Palestine is the wrong name for their State. It should be called Anarchy."—FReeper sgtbono2002
"Then let's wait and see what the Arabs do after they take Gaza. There's nothing like Arab reality to break up a Jewish fantasy."—FReeper Noachian
A student told his professor he was going to "Palestine" to "fight for freedom, peace and justice,"—Orwellian leftist code words that mean "murder Jews."
I actually became aware of it a while ago, via email, thanks for reminding us.
