Anti-Zionism not the same as anti-Semitism

On December 12, 2023December 11, 2023 By admin

On correcting the “corrector”: Bela Suhayda, in his infinite wisdom, has presented us with an historical perspective which he believes is politically correct. There is, however, another historical perspective which he dares not to enunciate because he believes it is politically incorrect and hence would cause him great harm if...

Reader’s Commentary: Defense real against Charles Coddington’s anti-Semitism

On December 12, 2023December 11, 2023 By admin

By Bela “Bill” Suhayda Charles Coddington, in an incredibly-obtuse article to The Voice November 16 edition, dredged up hundreds of years of history to explain the meaning of anti-Semitism and how wrong we are using the term. The Chas argues semantics when Israeli babies are burned alive. Hate is hate...

Reader’s Voice: Imprisoned fathers must see families

On November 28, 2023November 27, 2023 By admin

November 21, 2023Dear editor; Mothers in prison rarely see their families. I find Jill McCorkel’s November 14 article, “Mothers in prison rarely see their families” puzzling. For some reason, she decided to single out mothers and exclude fathers. Was this inadvertent? Seems unlikely because there are nine times as many...

On November 28, 2023November 27, 2023 By admin

November 20, 2023Dear editor; Politicians love to pay lip service to animal welfare, and yet so few of them hold the position that would do most to relieve the suffering of our fellow creatures. That would be supporting increased public funding for cultivated-meat research. For readers who aren’t familiar with...

By John & Nisha Whitehead Americans have become easy prey for hackers, scammers, snitches, spies, and con artists. But don’t be fooled into thinking the government is protecting you. To the contrary, the U.S. government is selling us (or rather, our data) to the highest bidders. By the way, those...

November 13, 2023Dear editor; In times of crisis, four presidents ordered the closure of our borders. The 9-11 terrorists entered our country illegally by using forged passports. One can only wonder how many terrorists or criminals could be embedded among the illegal immigrants. Resources of our border towns have been...

Semite-Palestine history traced for centuries

Anti-Semitism? Bah! Humbug! Do you know, dear reader, that there are two kinds of Jews? They are the Sephardim, the western European Jews, and the Ashkenazim, the eastern European, Yiddish-speaking Jews. None of them, however, is ethnically Semitic; none of them sprang from the seed of Father Abraham, their belief...
