About Me
- Name: Carl in Jerusalem
- Location: Jerusalem, Israel
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com

Oops... I haven't said anything complimentary about Obama. So is saying ANYTHING about him grounds for a lifetime ban? I'm not that good at censoring my views. I suspect, neither is Carl Matzav who writes this blog. If Google means one can post only politically correct views on blogs, then all of our free speech rights are under threat.
Looks like it's only if you come to the attention of enough kookballs who then send complaints about you as running a "spam blog" that Google's automated system kicks in and knocks you off until and unless a live person can re-evaluate it, which of course may take a long time. So it looks like the Obama supporters are finding blogs that annoy them and then targeting some of them for complaints to Google so that Google's automated system will kick them off as "possibly spam." With any luck, we can say that if Carl has been operating this long and the kooks haven't yet used this weapon against him, they probably aren't going to. But perhaps that is being too hopeful. I'm not worried about my own personal blog, because almost nobody reads it anyway (you guys should sometime--it has a lot of very hawkish pro-Israel stuff on it), so I doubt it would be a target for such a "spam labeling attack."
If you go, than I will go and so will quite a few blogs I know.

Obama supporters probably do not know what to do with my website since I wrote that I am voting for him despite the fact that he is a complete idiot who will ruin this country, see President Barack H. Obama will make me Rich
