Each week, in a contest for the week’s best post, the members of the Watchers Council nominate one of their own posts and a second from outside the Council for consideration by other council members. The writeup for this week’s batch of posts, I think, really shows off the Council’s diversity. “A touch of vodka.” How quaint:
Sit back while enjoying your personal potion and read the wonderful articles that have been passed on to us by the Watcher’s Council. Upon reading what I consider to be some of the most egregious and fact finding exposes of weasels in your midst make note of each article and pass them on to your friends. Or better yet, pass on my prescription for warming up on this blustery winter day and point them directly to this article here! Whatever path you take, enjoy. As always, the Watcher’s Council wishes you a warm winter wonderland. Make sure to come back and visit us on Friday for the results of this weeks contest!
My submission was last week’s post about Israel’s Apache fleet, where it looks like Obama might be blocking helicopter upgrades and eroding the Jewish State’s Qualitative Military Edge. On the same subject, you should check out the first segment from yesterday’s episode of One Jerusalem Radio’s Omri Ceren Show. I got a couple of tips after I posted the initial story, and things are a little less straightforward than they might otherwise be. Still deeply suspicious. But not as straightforward.
In any case, here are this week’s submissions. Feel free to sound of find on the Facebook entry for this post: which do you think should win?
