And brings this blog a full circle. Fifteen or so years ago when I first posted, it was about Islam and its threat to the world. Which the west had halted in its track across Europe at the Battle of Tours, way back in 732. That is, the battle of Islam against the west. And now the front of the west is Israel. Which I've been writing about so much over the last year, because of all that's happened since October 7th.
We can learn a lot about the region, and world affairs from Dr Leiter. From the intro to the vid:
Gabriel Groisman, host of "Standpoint with Gabe Groisman," interviews the recently appointed Israeli ambassador to the United States, Dr. Yechiel Leiter.
They discuss his journey from Scranton, Pa., to the Jewish state, his military service, and the historical context of Israel's political landscape.
A heartfelt tribute is paid to Maj. (res.) Moshe Yedidyah Leiter, the ambassador's son and Groisman’s friend, who lost his life fighting terrorists Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
