Finally, a blog to call my own, feels cozy too.
After pondering investing in picking up blogging, I've fotten around to it, I guess that is what results (and is the next logical step) from many an hour on Facebook and debating articles on the Ha'aretz and The Jerusalem Post websites...
I like to check them both out, as they offer wildly different perspectives and takes on the issues taking place in Israel. Ha'aretz sides with the left usually and The Jerusalem Post (hereafter jpost) has a rightist tinge. Whats a diaspora Jew to do?! I don't like to blindingly take Israel's side despite considering myself an ardent Zionist, so a little critical analysis helps in rounding out an opinion about the day's events. Admittedly, however, I never leave the chair with some epiphany of what side to sway to. I prefer the liberal(see lower case liberal)-humanist-traditional-Zionist(read upper case Zionist) approach...and what does that mean?...It's a work in progress...
