William Kristol has a great quip on the J Street situation: It all brings to mind Sen. Sam Ervin's famous invocation during Watergate of the couplet by Walter Scott: "Oh! What a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive!" And it makes it tempting to call J Street's behavior Nixonian. But that would be unfair to Richard Nixon. He was a friend of Israel.Heh.

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
