Introduction Scottish/Irish descent, raised in West L.A., California. Served as a grenadier/asst. machinegunner in Vietnam 1967. Combat wounded/50%disabled. Kibbutz volunteer in Israel during 1973 October War, converted to Judaism in 1975. Worked in construction in California, Canada and Israel for ten years. Member IDF Reserves for 15 years. Eventually emmigrated permanently to Israel in 1987. Married with two "sabra" sons and a Texan wife, also a convert to Judaism. Fiercely committed to the Jewish State and its future while being extremely vocal in my condemnation of the political corruption within the state itself. Good sense of humor with the ability to laugh at my own faults and foibles. "Ya gotta be silly sometimes, just to stay sane!" All comments on this blog, pro or con, will be greatly appreciated !
Interests Israel's past, present, and future.
Favorite Books The Torah, Mark Twain's "Letters from the Earth", "From Time Immemorial" by Joan Peters, Marcus Aurelius' "Meditations", histories by Livy, Ceasar, Tacitus, Herodotus, Josephus, John Toland, as well as all WW2 histories. And P.G. Wodehouse for pure unalloyed enjoyment.
