It's called "Foundation Stone," and can be found at <a rel="nofollow">www.foundationstone.info</a>. It's based on the Jewish tradition and it's really a good read. Check it out.

This is the answer I have been giving all the Jewish and non-Jewish critics who speak out against how Israel deals with its enemies. David was a true warrior and king. Ordering a 'hit' on Shemei after the fact, is like a scene from the "Godfather".<br /><br />Rav Kahane was of this mindset as well. The times may have changed but not the rules nor the instructions. <br /><br />Kol Tuv and Shavuah TovJDL London Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17912162982044368498noreply@blogger.com
