FEATURED JOBS
Comments (3)I’m tired. I look at the Baltimore Sun and it greets me with a headline “Scores Die In Israeli Attack” “Gaza’s Desperate Hospitals Overwhelmed by Casualties,” “Arabs Throughout Middle East Protest Israeli Airstrikes on Gaza.” Why haven’t I seen any headlines over the years posted on baltimoresun.com recording the hundreds if not thousands of Quassam rocket attacks on the small Israeli development town of Sderot or of Baltimore’s sister city Ashkelon?

Shalom Phil,
I read your blog and I think it’s really important that poeple will hear from someone who was actually in Sderot and Ashkelon,like yourself,what it is like to live with an ongoing threat.To raise children in a crazy reality like ours.

You’re surprised at this? The world media, even our “beloved” Sun, is no friend to Israel and the Jews.
