by Sheldon Richman | Mar 25, 2024 | Blog
The fable of Purim ends with the slaughter of over 75,000 non-Jewish Persians by the Jewish Persians after one official's (Haman's) plot to kill the Jews is exposed when the king is alerted by his Jewish wife. That's a mighty big conspiracy! God makes no appearance....
The Real Enemy: The Bin Ladenites

The Kyle Anzalone Show: Zionist Are Turning Democrats into Communists and Pushing Republicans Further Right
The ground is moving under American politics, and the fault line runs straight through U.S. foreign policy. We unpack how the Israel–Gaza war turned into a domestic litmus test that hardens the left and the right while squeezing the center into brittle talking points....
Abolish the Corporation Tax and All Other Taxes on Investment
Corporate taxes and other taxes on investment constitute double and sometimes triple taxation. That's more unjust than taxation of labor or consumption. Businesses can't pay taxes; only people can. But who pays business taxes need bear no relation to whom the...
