Op-Eds

This coronavirus first appeared in November 2019. By December 31, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan knew about it and were on alert. Singapore knew on January 4. South Korea on January 8. By January 9 the World Health Organization and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control were onto it. But the media was obsessed at the time with the nonsensical still-born Pelos impeachment.

Unlike the baseball movie with its famous meme “If you build it, they will come,” Gantz will find that he cannot build a government, and they will not come.

I don’t know whether the Trump administration has done the world’s best job in responding to the coronavirus. Who in the world knows? Shall we assume that everyone in the governments of South Korea, Italy, and other civilized free countries that have been impacted is a fool? Maybe so. Maybe not.

Moskowitz painfully distorts biblical verses and denies crystal clear halachic rules so as to effectively justify homosexual activity and gay pride, while labeling critics as “homophobes.” He then conflates having homosexual desires with acting upon them and proudly advertising one’s homosexual inclinations.

It seems increasingly clear, for those who read between the lines of Avigdor Lieberman’s words, that he and his Yisrael Beytenu party will leave the religious wars for another day if only he can oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu now. He wants him out more than anything else in the world, and he may yet get his putsch.

We were told by Democrat Morality Police that the assault and rape claims of a woman — any woman — always must be believed. There is no “he said/she said.” Rather, there is only “he raped/she survived.” There is no salvation, no atonement, no forgiveness for blackface nor for a woman’s rape charge. No exculpation, that is, until the Virginia Democrats realized that, if Northam is removed for blackface, and Fairfax for rape and yet rape again, and Herring for blackface, then the new governor would have to be Virginia House Speaker Kirk Cox — a Republican.

The party is over, Boinie. The communist party. But don’t fret; you still can celebrate anniversaries with Jane in Cuba or, at least for now, in Venezuela. We have had communists run in the past, but they used to run on their own communist party ticket.

It amazes in retrospect that there exist egos so overblown and unwieldy that they have the temerity to think themselves capable, or even worthy, of leading the greatest country on Earth, the most powerful, the most generous. Whence do they get that craziness?

With coronavirus floating around, medical care challenged in other ways, Hezbollah and Iranian dangers in the north, incessant and continual Hamas and Islamic Jihad (which in reality are the same thing) rocket-firing and balloon-bombing in the south, disastrous winter hurricane-style flooding in the north and central regions, it would have been nice to have had a government in place.
