Israeli Version of “Survivor” Premieres with Animal Cruelty
As I am writing this, the first episode of the Israeli version of the hit TV series “Survivor” is being aired on Israeli television (channel 10).
Having bought the rights to the show, it is so far a fair imitation of the original series, this one shot on the Caribbean Islands.
So far, survivors were split into […]

Yoko Ono Lennon: Think Peace, Act Peace, Spread Peace (Video)
Published yesterday on ImaginePeace.com
December 8, 2007
I miss you, John. 27 years later, I still wish I could turn back the clock to the Summer of 1980. I remember everything - sharing our morning coffee, walking in the park together on a beautiful day, and seeing your hand stretched to mine - holding it, reassuring me […]
What’s the Worst That Could Happen: A Global Warming Decision
Global warming: Panicked activists think it’s the worse think to ever happen to humanity… hardening skeptics claim its a hoax… and everyone inbetween simply thinks to themselves: “What’s the worst that could happen?”
But then along comes a 38-year-old science teacher and father of two, and asks 2.5 million YouTube viewers the folllowing question:
What if I […]
What the World Would be Like if More People Walked Barefoot
Today my husband and I were walking home from a concert and my feet were really hurting from my shoes. Next thing I knew I was walking down the streets of Tel Aviv barefoot.
All I can say is: What a relief! I couldn’t believe how good and natural it felt. I honestly felt like […]
Somebody Poke Me, I Must Be Dreaming
Somebody poke me: the government of Syria has made the move to block Facebook inside their borders.
According to sources speaking with Reuters, the official statement from officials is that they fear “Facebook could become a conduit for Israeli penetration of our youth”. Critics of the government say that it is really to cut off access […]
Together, WE ADD UP
The climate crisis is real and it’s happening right now. Yet, it’s so easy to feel helpless and overwhelmed. People keep asking, “What difference will changing my light bulbs really make? The problem is so huge, and I’m just one person.” I always try to explain to whoever is willing to listen how every little […]
People of Israel: Remember Who You Are (Video)
Somewhere along the way we have forgotten who we really are and what it is that we really want.
I made this short video in hope of helping us all remember before it’s too late.
Before commenting, please keep in mind:
I am a Jew was born into the Jewish religion and I am Israeli. I am […]
Stop the Clash of Civilizations
Talk is rising of a ‘clash of civilizations’. But the problem isn’t culture, it’s politics – from 9/11 to Guantanamo, Iraq to Iran. This clash is not inevitable, and we don’t want it.
So where to start? The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the key symbol of the rift between Islam & the West. It’s time to step […]
Children of Israel: I Was Proud of You Last Night
Last night I attended the massive rally that took place at Rabin square in Tel Aviv with my sister, an English teacher at an Israeli high school. Despite minimal promotion and a Euro 2008 game against Russia that was broadcasted at the exact same time (Israel won 2:1, by the way), more than 100,000 people […]
Living In My Own World… Or AM I?
Yesterday I received the following email from a new reader (welcome Gina!) and felt inspired to answer it here in case others out there have similar questions… Here goes:
Someone at work keeps telling me I’m living in my own world (?) I don’t get it, so i searched online and up came your site! You have […]
The Only Message You Ever Need to Send to Anyone
Last night I feel asleep with the following words echoing in my mind, taken from Tomorrow’s God: Our Greatest Spiritual Challenge by Neale Donald Walsh. ’God’ discusses how when people are being anything other than the grander aspects of God and Life (meaning: Love, freedom, joy, peace, unity…), they have forgotten Who They Are in their grandest version. […]
One Less Plastic Bag
A recent post on One Jerusalem discusses a new environmental program being inaugurated in Israel in order to persuade people to use less polymer plastic material:
The program, mentioned briefly on T.V. Channel 10, is asking consumers to “use one less plastic bag” when sacking up their groceries during their weekly supermarket shopping forays. Most shoppers […]

There is a River Flowing Very Fast - 2012
I came across the following quote on one of Ian Xel Lungold’s many fascinating lectures on the Mayan Calender, before he passed away. These amazing words were originally spoken by the Hopi elders:
“There is a river flowing very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will […]
