From a Jewish perspective, the present conflict in Ukraine is very awkward. Both the leaders of Russia and the leaders of Ukraine are very friendly to Jews and have close relations with Israel. The question then arises: how do Jews relate to a leader, in this case, Putin of Russia, who may be a friend to Jews but a tyrant to other people, in this case, Ukrainians. This blog does not attempt to answer that but I have written on the subject in a roundabout way (nothing to do with Eastern Europe). See this posting written in October.
Welcome to my revived blog. OK. I’ll get to the point. My fantasy is to start a movement for indigenous Middle Eastern independence from Arab occupation by focusing on indigenous Middle Eastern current events and history, with particular attention to Israel (cuz after all, I am Jewish). So unless it is absolutely important, no Arab will be mentioned. Sorry Arabs but you don't count.
For the record, I'm neither an academic nor a scholar, and admittedly, I've never been to many of the places posted here. So if someone should find a mistake, or believe I omitted something, please feel free to email me and I'll correct it.
