TO THE BITTER END

      In the movie Rocky IV, the beginning of the final round of the fight, Russian boxer Ivan Drago—having learned respect for Rocky Balboa throughout the match—told Rocky: “To the bitter end.”  Remember this line when you see the ground operations begin in the Gaza Strip as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) begin their physical push into that area to deal with Hamas once and for all.  With the carnage caused by Hamas—along with their supporting enablers and money bag men—they h

AIN’T IT FUNNY THAT…PART 2
