It's not a chill, it's a blizzard and the snow is way high.

The media is totally dishonest and left-biased anyway, so this comes as no surprise. It would be more surprising if ABC or any other media house of prostitution actually produced a show which was about facts.

Are you alluding to The First Amendment being circumcised?

Back in 1981, my dad wrote an article for LIFE Magazine about the West Bank. It was supposed to be the cover story. Dad, an unabashed Zionist, told them he was going to do it from Meir Kahane's POV, with history, etc. It was agreed. He went over to Israel for a month or so and did everything a writer does (he already had a relationship with Kahane). What happened after the article was written is what's interesting. When my Father started getting the galley proofs back, things started getting changed...first little things, then REALLY big things. Quotes, etc. Dad was LIVID. Finally, they last proof came and they COMPLETELY CHANGED THE LAST PARAGRAPH, giving the entire article a completely different slant.

That was it. My father demanded they not print the article, but it was too late. So he asked that his name not be put on it. He felt the article would be a betrayal to the people who spoke to him and trusted him.

When it came out, EVEN WITH all the changes, Kahane said he was happy with it, because he didn't even expect them to publish that much positive, pro-Israel stuff. Isn't that sad?

By the way, the article ended up NOT being the cover story, Why? President Reagan was shot two weeks before and that ended up being on the cover. If you ever go to the Reagan library, you'll see that issue there. Maybe one day I'll type in the original article. It was still very interesting because it gives the background of the West Bank.
