Last Sunday I attended the third annual Genesis Award presented by Christians and Jews United for Israel at Temple Emeth in Brookline. Alan Dershowitz was this year's recipient. Here are some photos and video.
Yes, as always, there was a protest. It was only three when I arrived, though three more came later. I'm still waiting on pics of those late arrivers:
P.F. Soto with backpack parrot hostage "Sydney" and the ubiquitous sign-toting David Rolde
Enough of that. Let's go inside.
Below: Video of Alan Dershowitz's acceptance speech, video of Gerald and Cynthia Bell of Strong Tower Church getting the audience going, as well as some more photos.

2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!

What a wonderful afternoon it was at Temple Emeth. The Genesis Award was given to an individual who embodies all that is good about Judaism. Alan Dershowitz is a mensch. Tom Trento was fantastic and I encourage people to get a copy of AND watch the DVD he was distributing called "Obsession." We must be aware of the threat of Islamofascists and not have our focus diverted from what they want to achieve. Either we stand together or we have our heads cut off individually. Just look what is happening in Europe and especially in Amsterdam, to understand how real the threat is.
