Ottawa tonight: me and my brother Bernie, for Israel

Over 300 tickets have been sold, I’m told.  See you tonight!

    Keep up the great work. Your continued efforts in this fight are respected and appreciated by many.

    Clearly Putin’s supply of ground to air missiles to Asad’s crumbling Syrian regime will be on everyone’s minds as it should be.

    Syria, armed by Putin, is a far more lethal threat to Israel than is Iran at the moment. The West can’t afford to wait another month thinking that a peaceful resolution will be found.

    The West, namely a US led NATO force, has to step in promptly before the Middle East erupts into an all out regional war.

    This regional war mostly likely will be exploited by President Putin of Russian and most certainly the crazy Iranian regime with its Hezbolla ally in Lebanon.

    The time has long past for the West to sit on the sidelines.

    Great event! Always nice to hear reasonable people discussing interesting questions. Good job on addressing some of your comments directly to the young athletes. Hope your son liked the Habs jersey.

    It was an absolutely fine evening. The place was sold out and to have worked again with my friend Warren addressing issues of extremism, bigotry and racism in today’s society was, I believe a learning experience for all involved.

    We discussed everything from Islamic extremism to bully bloggers, bigots and neo-Nazis. Folks seemed to appreciate it very much.

    Big thank you to Maccabi Canada and to Warren for giving so generously of his time and knowledge.

    The evening was an unqualified success in large part due to your presence. Your message of hope and that tolerance always trumps intolerance resonated with my sons, two of the athletes from Team Ottawa in attendance last night. On behalf of the organizing committee, many thanks for your generous time and efforts. On a personal note, it was great seeing you and knowing that years away do not put an end to true friendship.
