THE DEFINITIVE RAP: "Israel's Memorial Day Is about War, Not Peace" Interview with Ruthie Blum

“Israel’s Memorial Day is about war, not peace. And it shouldn’t be a time for refrains of Kumbaya. The only song we should be singing is Hatikvah,” said our guest, Ruthie Blum whom we have the pleasure to hear.

The purpose of Yom Hazikaron, Israel’s Memorial Day is to pay tribute to fallen Israeli soldiers and victims of terror who were targeted because they are Jews. This year grieving Jewish families are offended by the Defense Ministry’s gift of a wall clock designed with Islamic and Christian symbols. The insult felt by these bereaved families is so strong to the extent that they will return it. Ruthie agreed that what is going on this year was a so-called politically correct decision, to keep the peace, rather than call it what it is. War.

Also discussed was how Ramadan was celebrated, and about thecontroversy surrounding Temple Mount.

In her spunky way Ruthie talked about her quote, “I support aborting kids when they reach puberty and start slamming the door in your face. Otherwise, I oppose it,” and the general consensus in Israel about the news that the Roe vs. Wade decision has been struck down.
