Barak raises eyebrows with sale of Tel Aviv apartment

JERUSALEM _ Saying he wanted to reconnect with average Israelis, Defense Minister Ehud Barak has sold his posh, high-rise Tel Aviv apartment, which had been a source of public scorn in a country where voters traditionally like to see their leaders living as simply and modestly as they do. But the deal also allowed the former prime minister to pocket a cool $4 million profit and raised a few eyebrows about why Barak is cashing out of the Tel Aviv real estate market just as Israel is threatening to bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities, a move many fear could result in Iranian-funded missiles raining down on the seaside city. Barak has been struggling with an image problem for years

Conservative Author David Barton Says Obama Is Most Biblically Hostile US President

March 11, 2012|11:25 am The Texas-based evangelical author and self-taught historian wrote in his latest WallBuilders post: “So perhaps the most accurate description of his (President Obama) antipathy toward Catholics, Protestants, religious Jews, and the Jewish nation would be to characterize him as anti-Biblical. And then when his hostility toward Biblical people of faith is contrasted with his preferential treatment of Muslims and Muslim nations, it further strengthens the accuracy of the anti-Biblical descriptor.” The Christian Post contacted White House officials on Friday asking for a response to Barton’s post but did not receive a statement by press time.

Discovery resurrects 'Jesus Tomb' debate

One of the designs etched on a bone box found within a 1st-century Jerusalem tomb suggests the biblical story of Jonah and the fish, which held significant symbolism for early Christians. By Alan Boyle Using a remote-controlled camera on the end of a robotic arm, investigators have found what could be the earliest evidence of a Christian iconography in Jerusalem, engraved on a set of “bone boxes” inside a nearly intact 1st-century tomb. One of the limestone boxes, known more formally as an ossuary, carries a Greek inscription calling on God to “rise up” or “raise up” someone.
