We Will Win

From a brave and courageous cousin in Israel who encourages you to check out Answers.com comes the following inspirational logo for those on the WorldWideWeb (www) that I urge fellow bloggers to post in support of Israel's war against terrorists on its northern and southern borders.

WE WILL WIN!!!

Prayer for the Israel Defense Forces

אלה ברכב ואלה בסוסים ואנחנו בשם ד' אלוקנו נזכיר

In this time of great pain, all that we can do here from America is cry out for His mercy on His people and His land. Suggestions of what individuals and communities can do are available here. This prayer - available in pocket- and plaque-sized cards - are available for purhcase here.

Not all of us went to AIPAC's Policy Conference 2006

Contrary to popular belief, not everyone in DC attended opening day of AIPAC's "Policy Conference 2006: Now Is The Time."

This recreational photographer drove right past the mammoth Convention Center (already decorated for the FOSE conference set to begin on Wednesday, oddly enough) en route to a very enjoyable day under clear blue skies in the sunny, almost-60 degree weather here in our nation's capital.

I hope you enjoy the pictures I have posted below as much as I enjoyed taking them!

As always, comments, critiques and suggestions are welcome!
