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.

Netanyahu is getting some very bad advice and making some foolish decisions these days.
He should learn to say one really useful word: "No!"
Ashan,
According to Lieberman, Israel will make no more territorial concessions and Jerusalem is non-negotiable. The rest of the world thinks the outcome of negotiations should begin with the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Yesha and Jerusalem and end with a PLO terrorist state cheek to jowl along the Old green line. What's the point of Israel committing to a process where it gets no real peace in exchange?
And if Lieberman's position is indeed the government's policy, its hard to see the proximity talks going anywhere and for what its worth, Barry Rubin thinks the Palestinians will stay away anyway. There will be no end to the Israeli-Arab conflict in our lifetime.
