In this post, I want to highlight the deep historical roots of anti-Zionism, as it is a mutation of antisemitism. Therefore, I argue that one must understand the origins of antisemitism before discussing anti-Zionism. The roots of anti-Zionism are closely intertwined with those of antisemitism. It is difficult to overlook this connection unless it is […]
Zionism
Zionism and anti-Zionism—two expressions very popular in our days. What is Zionism and what is anti-Zionism? What does a Jewish person generally thinks when she or he speaks about Zionism? In this post, I want to explore the concept of Zionism.[1] In my next post(s) I want to write about anti-Zionism. A short definition of Zionism […]
Genocide
Genocide. Following the tragic massacre on October 7, 2023, where over 1200 Israelis fell victim to brutal attacks by Hamas militants, accusations of genocide against Israel have become increasingly common. These allegations gained momentum after the Israeli Army launched a campaign in the Gaza Strip aimed at dismantling Hamas and the Islamic Jihad terrorist organizations […]
The Vladimir Putin Interview
I watched Tucker Carlson’s interview with Putin because several of my friends asked about my opinion of it. Another reason for which I watched it with interest is because I am a Romanian citizen who lives in Romania—a country that neighbors Ukraine and Ukraine’s war with Russia (or Russia’s war with Ukraine). In my post […]
Hamas
The October 7 massacre of over 1200 Israeli people by Hamas was a monstrous act of pure evil. The Jewish people will always remember this dark event. It was a day when Israel’s enemies took her by surprise in an attempt to kill as many Jews as possible. Hamas was responsible for the massacre. Of […]
A leadership lesson from my walnut tree plantation
A leadership lesson from my walnut tree plantation. Actually, in my post, I will share several leadership lessons that God taught me while I began working at my walnut tree plantation. A leadership lesson from my grandfather One of my grandfathers was a farmer who raised cattle and who worked his land. And as you […]
Hospitality
Hospitality and the refugees of Europe (and the world) and how should we as believers respond to the crisis—that’s what I want to talk in my blog post. My post is not about the war in Ukraine and/or my understanding of it (even though I could speak about the war because I majored in Political […]
Great leaders read books
Great leaders read books, and through their books, shape others. The word leadership is a topic on many agendas, whether in Church, politics, or business. Needless to say, not all the books are equally important or equally good. I often wonder how God uses different books and writers to shape my life and especially my leadership. Just recently, after […]
The fatherless generation
The fatherless generation is the generation in which we live today. Our culture rejects the key role of the father in the education of children. Therefore, in my blog post I want to defend the God-given role of the father in the 21st century in educating his children about God. The image of the father […]
The role of parents
The role of parents in the education of their children—that’s what I’ve been thinking at lately. I am talking about Christian parents in particular. The role of parents in Jewish communities Someone once asked Isidore Rabi why he became a scientist. That happened after he won the Nobel Prize for physics. Isidore Rabi replied that […]
Where does our writing come from?
Where does our writing come from? It’s one of the most important questions a writer can ask as writers. One of my earliest memories with my father was seeing him reading his big black Bible. Every morning he was sitting in the same place, with his Bible opened and a cup of coffee. He never […]
A changed life
A changed life is everybody’s dream. People will travel hundred of miles to a different continent and a different country to live a better (changed) life. However, genuine change cannot happen outside of God—and God is everywhere. All one needs to experience a changed life is going to God in humility. We all seek a […]
