Israel is never free from attacks by Hamas, PLO, Hezbollah, … they are surrounded by cultures and countries that- for 66 years —  openly vow they will not be satisfied until Israel is utterly destroyed. Nevertheless, Israel is unnecessarily torn in the middle by the Obama administration who pressure and ridicule Netanyahu, as though he’s the bad guy…while Jihadi rockets continue to explode in their towns and streets.

     It is a sad time, indeed, for we have never had worse relations with our Israeli allies since it became a country in 1948, than we do now.  I’ve always said, and nothing has shown me any different, that Barack Obama plays both sides, but his heart on the side of the Islamists. 

     This is the reason that I encourage everyone to vote straight down the line Republican this election, no matter the candidate, to pull the rug out from his power base, and prevent him from acting as dictator for his lame duck two years. He relies on support from state governors and senators, and congressmen to carry out his long range mission…in his words…”the fundamental transformation of America.”  Let’s not give it to him.

     Remember, nothing is better today in the world stage, than when Obama took office, particularly in the Islamist blocs. When we leave Afghanistan, the same thing will happen as has happened in Iraq, which should never have been totally abandoned by American forces. The saving grace is that Egypt rose up when the people saw they were being forced under the yoke of Shariah by Muslim Brotherhood rule  — which Obama and Hillary Clinton supported.  Let that sink in folks — Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton adamantly supported the Muslim Brotherhood. The people of Egypt rose up in defiance, with banners and signs all over the nation denoting Obama and Hillary as sympathizers with terrorists.  That’s the truth.

    Notice how we have not heard much from the administration since Morsi was deposed by the people of Egypt?  Our attention is being diverted from one of the administration’s most embarrassing (and revealing) mistakes.

In case you haven’t seen it, there is a new pro-feminism video out to promote the selling of tee shirts which decry unequal pay for women and to discourage the crime of rape. Worthwhile causes, indeed. However, four little girls – ages 7 – 9, are used  ( virtually “used”) to carry the message forward with horrific, profane dialogue which includes the “F” word repeatedly (and others).  Just two minutes…Please watch:

The producer is a male person (I assume) named Mike Kon.  In case Mr. Kon’s IQ is somewhere below Neanderthal levels, I have a simple message which he probably won’t understand. Hey Mike:  I have free speech rights too.  Here’s something you might not know. The word F–K means jamming a penis into a vagina for sex gratification. Is this what you wanted these little girls to convey to adult people in your video? If so, please check into the nearest mental institution and seek aid, so we can protect our little kids from people like you. Yes, rape is bad. Very bad. So is raping the moral character of children. So is raping their innocent minds.

I am no prude. The “F” word is a regular part of American lexicon profanity. But we still try to maintain some standards to protect kids from participating in moral filth and depravity. When I hear a seven year-old girl using “F” and other profane words, over and over, it tells me that some adults out there think very little of them. The message is far obscured by the messengers.

The producer is trying to sell tee shirts, but it doing so, he’s violating his own precepts by debasing young females into acts of verbal depravity not only to carry a feminist message, but to make sales at the expense of child profanity. He may not have broken a specific law and he is entitled to free speech, but there are limits, just like there are limits to using the “N” word when publically referring to black people. Here’s the company web page:

One wonders how many times and hours these kids had to practice this routine.  These girls know nothing about laws regarding employment, sexism, equality and inequality. They are simply injected with political propaganda … like a heroin needle in their head…by a child abuser in order to convey a political message.

Mr. Kon deserves, at the least, a class action law suit by outraged parents in the state where this was produced. At best, he should be jailed, but we lack laws to protect kids in this way.

The parents who obviously had to approve and sign-off on allowing their babies to be manipulated and corrupted are equally guilty of horrific parental abuse, and should be questioned and summarily challenged by child protection and welfare organizations. What are we waiting for?

And, perhaps we need to start passing stricter laws toward protecting children from this kind of defacto verbal abuse.

Mike Kon, the producer of this piece of trash is a child-exploiter.We know little else about him.  Here was his quote in that Huffington Post article: 

The video’s producer, Mike Kon, defended the provocative strategy, telling AdWeek: “Some adults may be uncomfortable with how these little girls are using a bad wordfor a good cause. It is shocking what they are saying, but … the big statistic that one out of five women are sexually assaulted or raped is something society seems to find less offensive than a little four-letter word.”

 Perhaps Mr. Kon would like to hear from some of my readers. Perhaps the District Attorney would like to hear from readers as well, or perhaps, the NY Times and Washingont Post, CNN and MSNBC.  

When Kuwait was invaded by Saddam Hussein, G.H.W. Bush said, “This will not stand.” This too, is an invasion of our children’s innocence in the name of partisan politics, and it should not stand. It’s only us … who can make a difference.

It was eight years ago today, October 21^st, 2006, that I met a beautiful 13 year-old girl named Esther Muradov. Why is that such a big deal?

Because of her, the Creative Arts Foundation of Brevard, Inc., was born. This non-profit organization was formed to seek and assist exceptionally talented youngsters who have worked passionately toward improving their skills in music and the arts, and to help them realize their dreams. Since being formed, the foundation has provided more than seventy young musical talents with opportunities they may not have realized otherwise, including partial scholarships, music lesson, instruments, and venues in which to perform. More than $55,000 has been awarded in prizes and grants to the most needy of those youngsters. We have held over forty performance recitals featuring kids from ages 9 to 19, and five annual music competitions, awarding $1000 prizes to the winners, and lesser prizes to deserving young musicians and singers. The funding comes from generous lovers of talent within the community. It would never have happened if not for this young prodigy.

On that day in 2006, Esther visited our home with her mother, a piano teacher, to play the first movement from the Vieuxtemps Concerto.  Our expectations were low. She was petite and fragile for her age, but enormously confident as she raised the violin to her chin. I figured this would be a nice little tune. Instead, we were treated to a professional-level concert. Being a fair-to-middlin violinist all my life, I recognized superiority from the first note. My hair rose on my arms. I thought I was in the midst of greatness. By the time she finished her last note, our jaws remained on the floor.

Instantly, I seized the moment to pepper her with questions. Her hopes, her desires, her future ambitions, her idols, anything I could learn about her. She was as articulate as she was musical. She had practiced almost four hours a day since the age of four. She loved her music. Her favorite violinist of was Jascha Heifetz. Her greatest hope was to compete on an international level, and perhaps, one day play in Carnegie Hall.  Her mother said it would be a difficult dream to realize, because they didn’t have that kind of money, and her cheap violin was inferior compared to other advanced violinists from around the world.

We held a fund raiser in a small Rockledge church double-wide with Esther as the star, providing a concert of several wonderful pieces for a small audience of nearly one hundred people, each paying $50 per ticket. I loaned her my 220 year-old Italian violin to use instead of her own. The room was filled. The recital drew standing ovations.

Esther went to Ibla, Italy and competed with the major youth prodigies from around the world, reaching the top of her category. One of her awards was the opportunity to play a recital  — where else? – in Carnegie Hall, New York City. Later that year, we attended her recital as I watched Esther and my treasured violin fill the entire room with a perfect rendition of the Lalo Concerto.

Talk about a feel-good moment.

Because of the contacts made through that first recital in Rockledge, Esther was awarded a full scholarship to attend Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, thereby by-passing Rockledge High where she had planned to attend. Fast forward: Esther is now in her senior year in Columbia University and plans to attend medical school next year. I’m sure she’ll be as great a doctor as she is a violinist. She’ll always have her music as one of her life’s enrichments, playing in ensembles and other venues whenever possible.

So, on this eight-year anniversary of first coming to know this prodigious young lady, I wish to thank Al and Sue Giddings of Suntree, who first introduced us to the Muradov family. We’ve also been privileged to maintain a wonderful friendship with Esther’s mom, Pervin, an outstanding pianist in her own right, and her dad, Nazim, a professor of science and talented musician as well.

But most of all, thank you, Esther, for being just who you are. There are many other young prodigies from your community who — as recipients of our assistance — appreciate you being the inspiration for the birth of this foundation.

October 21^st, 2006, was a day to remember. At least, for us.

Here is Esther in 2010, playing a segment from the Brahms concerto:   Click here: Esther Muradov – YouTube

Me and Esther 2013

     I am a bigot. I’m an Islamophobe. I’m un-American because I reject outside cultures that hate America yet use American laws and rights for furthering an anti-American agenda. Yes, I’m the bad guy here.

     The following is but a sampling of what is happening in this country, and on the increase. Recent examples of “moderate” and “peaceful” Muslims in America.

     July  2014:  Miami, Florida.  “Moderate” Muslims demonstrate in support of Hamas.  Watch the video:

     September 2014, New York City, Muslim Day Parade. Including floats showing caged women, a hanged woman, (mannequin) simulated AK 47 and other machine guns, and hatred toward Egypt’s government for rejecting the Muslim Brotherhood.  More “moderate” and “peaceful” Muslims on display.  See photos and watch videos below:

     Ft. Lauderdale, 2009:     

     This could have been a very long article. But you get the picture.

   Yes, I know there are truly moderate and peaceful Muslims in America.  

     So?

While we are fed constant news about ISIS, Ebola and a questionable police shooting in Ferguson, Missouri, we seem to have lost interest in what is happening on the Israeli front, where rockets continue to pound civilian targets inside their borders and innocent people keep running for their lives. Hamas must love all the outside world’s distractions as they relentlessly fire missile on top of missile into Israeli civilian targets in the hopes of killing anyone for the sake of killing and terrorizing.

     Nothing appears in American news feed – not easily found anyway – which tells more of the story, as the Obama administration has blocked all shipments of defensive armament support to Israel, our strongest ally (supposedly) in the middle east. No explanation given.  This is reported in the Jewish Press, which is not known for making up false stories.

     So this is where we’ve come.  Not only is ISIS terrorizing Iraq and Syria into an Islamic State, target bombings be laughable, we are giving a lower (or no) priority to our Israeli partner’s survival. This falls completely into the objectives of the Muslim Brotherhood and radical Islam.

     This is a short blog.  The following links explain it all.

     But I have one important message to convey. When you go to the polls on November 4^th, please cast votes that will diminish the support and random power of this president who, with two years of unaccountability remaining in his term, could conceivable act as a dictator if he has a democratic senate and congress behind him.  Even if you must hold your nose, vote republican this election. Hold Obama accountable. It won’t happen if Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and the Attorney General remain as his protectorates. A lot of terrible things can happen in two years.

 Remember: Every action (or non-action) Barack Obama has taken regarding the middle-east in the last five years, has been to the overt and covert support of the Muslim Brotherhood, whose pimrary goal is the advancement of radical Islam everywhere. That is a provable fact.
