The Smooth Stone Blog has been fighting anti-Semitism and Jew-hatred online, and in various media, since 1999. There was a brief hiatus after the tragedy of September 11th, 2001. We also kept an online presence at smoothstone.blogspot.com and smoothstoneblog.com. For work-related reasons, the blog went dark after 2012.

A lot has changed since then. Today the growth of antisemitism in the United States and the world over is astonishing. Obama’s eight-year long virulently anti-Semitic administration nurtured the sentiment.

I decided that now, more than ever, I can’t stay out of the fray.

Join us here at Smooth Stone along with other people of good conscience and put an end to the brutal terror of the Palestinian Authority complicit in the ethnic cleansing of indigenous Jews from their homeland of Israel.
