The Marty Roberts Show: Staying Real in Israel

By doing this, The Creator allowed me and my family to experience something very special, very blessed. Something that even Moshe Rabbeinu, Moses, Our Teacher, Moses, our Forefather, who God chose to lead the Jews out of slavery in Egypt, Moses, who God chose to receive the Torah for all of Israel, Moses, who God chose to speak with face to face , personally. I was blessed to do something that Moses himself was not permitted to experience...to live in the Land of Israel, God's gift to The Jewish People. As we read in this week's Torah portion, Chukat (Chukas)Moses was punished by God for striking the rock on Mount Horeb instead if merely speaking to it while trying to provide water to the thirsty Israelites. The ultimate punishment for Israel's leader...no entry into The Land of Israel. And here I am, 25 years later, living happily here with my family. Wow!!! What a blessing!!! Listen to the story of that eventful day in July, 1991, along with the events that culminated in the decision to pick up my family and come home to Israel... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

A "Spiritual Short", a "פינת רוח" on today's show. What is the REAL nature of the character trait referred to in the Torah/Bible as humilty, "anavah" (ענוה)? We're talking the Jewish version here!! What is it that makes a person humble? It's not about thinking that you are not good, are "less than", are worthless, meaningless. After all, if The Creator thought it worthwhile to create you, how could you be worthless? The answer lies in not thinking less OF yourself, but thinking less ABOUT yourself. All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

It's for real, alright, and Marty gives you a look inside on today's show... Also, Israel hosted the International Cybersecurity conference in Tel Aviv last week. The United States signed an agreement with Israel for cybersecurity defense cooperation at the conference. Hear all about the agreement and what else happened at the conference on the podcast... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

A closer look at the bloody attacks that took place during USVP Joe Biden's last visit to the Holyland. The amazing Yishai Montgomery, the "guitar hero" who subdued a murderer with his guitar, as well as Yonatan Azarahib, Brezlov chasidic Jew, who pulled the knife out of his own body and then used it to subdue his would-be murderer. Israel and the world seem to love these guys...the true face of Israeli citizenry's response to the current wave of terror... Then, there's the other side, the progressive lefties, like Yariv Oppenheimer and his Peace Now group, calling for Israelis to roll over and die rather than kill their attackers. Summary, extra-judicial executions??? I don't think so... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

Listen to Marty talk about: The "AirMule" Vertical Takeoff and Landing Unmanned Air Vehicle with mind-boggling capabilities that is about to revolutionize the use of drones in civil as well as military roles. From air ambulance to high-flying freight carrier to tactical combat rotorcraft, this Israeli success story can do it all... Israel Aircraft Industries' revolutionary "Drone Guard" Drone Detection and Disruption Counter UAV will be leading the world's fight against the ever-present danger of hostile drone attacks. What is this Israeli system all about?... And, speaking of hostile drone attacks, the battle has already started in Israel and Egypt, with the interception by Israeli security forces of Hamas drones being smuggled into Gaza. Let the games begin!... Plus...America and Great Britain's spying raids on Israeli drones. What happened?..Did they or didn't they hack Israel's encryption?...How much damage did Israel's "best friends" do to their ally?... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

Yup, a deluxe free trip to Israel is now in the official Oscars "Goodie Bag", not to mention luxury cars, personal trainers and Vampire Breast Lifts. Get the full scoop in today's show... And, of course, where there's good things in Israel, there's always BDS to try and kill the buzz. No exception here. So just which top entertainers are coming to visit and perform in Israel, and which are not? Marty brings you the latest updates... Plus...BDS was established to hurt Israel, while helping the palestinians. Well, guess what? It's hurting the palestinians more than anyone. Here's the story of Sodastream. Listen and weep (for the palestinians, if you really care)... Also...Obama is proving that he, himself, is strongly behind the BDS movement and boycotting Israel by his noted objections to America's Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015. If last week's show didn't convince you, than this story surely should... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

Here's an up-close look at this world-class development taking place in the Modern Jewish Homeland.. And while we're at it...Listen to Marty's coverage of Cybertech 2016, bringing representatives from 50+ nations to the gathering of more than 11,000 people, over 250 companies, 100 Israeli start-ups, and scores of investors complete with a thwarted REAL cyber-attack on Israel's electric power grid...(No, it was REAL, and Israeli cyber-security neutralized the threat!!) Also on today's show...Honda is heading toward the ultimate in safe, smart cars, and they know that Israel is the place to do it...So Honda is coming to Israel... And...Bot-nets...Another cyber-threat that Israeli researchers are seeking out and destroying, with the help of Deutsche Telekomm at Ben Gurion University...What are they?..How are Israeli scientists defeating them? (If this sounds a lot like Mr. Robot, it's because IT IS!, only this is the REAL world!) All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

What he is done is probably illegal, is certainly against the will of the United States Congress and the American people, and is guaranteed to cause economic damage not only to Israel, but to the palestinians and their feeble economy that DEPENDS on Israel and international charity, not to mention the incentive being applied to the palestinians to NOT engage in any sort of peace process, whatsoever... On today's show, listen to Marty explain why and how: Obama has revived an old U.S. Customs regulation that may or may not have been appropriate for its time, but certainly is NOT appropriate OR useful now... In so doing, the U.S. president is using his "pen and phone" to violate American law, as well as countervene the will of the elected government... The new labeling regulations run completely contrary to the will of the U.S. Congress, the American people and many State governments... The economic damage intended by Obama to harm Israel will damage equally, if not quite a bit more the palestinians Obama supposedly wants to support... Instead of being a leader of the freedom-loving world, America has become a blind follower of the rapidly collapsing European Union and United Nations... American Homeland Security has better things to do to protect the U.S. border than monitor labeling of Israeli products... The Obama administration is directly playing into the hands of the palestinian radicals that want to destroy Israel... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

Israel is under a coordinated assault by the Palestinians who hate us and the Europeans and Americans who are hostile to us. On today's show, Marty explains just how the pieces of this puzzle fit together...much to Israel's detriment... U.S. Ambassador Dan Shapiro's slanderous accusations about the Israeli legal system, following immediately on the heels of multiple terrorist murders of young Israeli mothers, The European Union's BDS-like product labelling campaign, along with their "Middle East Peace Plan" document, U.S. State Department spokesman Kirby's condemnation of Israel's lawful land policies in the Jordan Valley, which was followed immediately by a similar condemnation by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and a call by the PA for a UN Security Council resolution against Israel all add up to the diplomatic onslaught being orchestrated against Israel by her so-called friends and allies...Marty lays out just how this poisonous dynamic feeds, supports and encourages palestinian terror... Also...Some suggestions for Israeli policy decisions that can be be taken by the Israeli government, by columnist, Caroline Glick... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

Listen, as Marty tells the incredible story of Hillary Clinton's plans to use foreign-funded (with largely American dollars) Israeli NGO's, like B'Tzelem and Peace Now, to incite the palestinians to riot against Israel and, thus, help to bring down the Israeli government, while causing massive unrest in Israel. How can a woman like this become the leader of the Western World??? And...For Hillary and all the other critics of Israel that maintain that it is ISRAEL that is preventing implementation of the two-state solution and the establishment of a palestinian state, here is the recently verified story of how Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazzen) refused the offer of then-Prime Minister of Israel, Ehud Olmert's blueprint plan for the immediate establishment of a palestinian state, meeting nearly ALL of the palestinians demands. You won't believe what you are hearing... Also on this show...Wondering just how the foreign-funded Israeli NGO's like B'Tzelem, Peace Now and others do their dirty work, and why they are so dangerous and must be controlled?..Listen to how recent revelations have documented how these organizations are inciting violent riots and paying the palestinians to participate in them, and, yes, even directly causing the murder of innocent civilians... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

Israeli-Arab, Nashat Milhem celebrated New Year's Day, 2015 by opening fire with an automatic weapon on Tel-Aviv's busy Dizengoff Street, killing 3 and injuring many more. On today's show, Marty details the murderous attack and the week-long pursuit that followed, culminating in the shootout that left the terrorist, Melham, dead and many questions still unanswered. And..Amidst reports of certain palestinian journalists and intellectuals calling for an end to attacks on innocent civilians, particularly those using children as the assailants, listen to the REAL, mainstream responses to the current wave of terror against innocent Israelis, mostly carried out by young people...SPOILER ALERT!..The palestinian government leadership, as well as their official media outlets universally label the terrorists "Shahid/Martyr", which means that they are officially carrying out the "holy" work of their god, Allah, which, according to them, is a good thing...This is known as incitement to murder, in the civilized world that I come from... Also...Lina Allan of Michigan, United States attacks those that would prohibit the stabbing of Jews, comparing it to "defending animal rights, at best". And, by the way, this woman officially represented Hillary Rodham Clinton's U.S. State Department in Jordan in 2012...Just sayin'... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live in Israel...

After the largest aliyah/immigration to Israel in more than a decade, Marty breaks down the what, when, where, why and how of this latest rush of Jews coming home to Israel...

Also, on today's show...The Islamic State's strategic plan for world dominance...In their own words!!!... Ignore at your own peril... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live from Israel...

As revealed by Marty on today's show, it's readily apparent that America's Middle East foreign policy is nothing more than a house of cards, built on the faulty assumptions and wishful thinking of those in the U.S. State Department, led by buffoon-in-chief John Forbes Kerry... Just listen to Kerry's own words as he flips and flops and displays a total ignorance of the reality of the 21st century Middle East... It might be funny if the potential consequences of U.S. policy in this tough neighborhood weren't so serious, with potential disaster for Israel waiting around every corner... All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live from Israel...

On today's show, Marty reveals the incontrovertible facts about Jerusalem, specifically, the Temple Mount, site of Israel's two holy Temples. And if the Bible itself is not enough, Jewish and Islamic religious rituals and custom provide even more evidence, not to mention the near-universal scientific opinion expressed by academics of all faiths. Plus, a special report about Jewish biblical King Hezekiah's bulla, clay seal, recently discovered in Old Jerusalem. It was likely handled by the king himself!! All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live from Israel...

On today's show, Marty reviews the reactions to Trump's speech to the Jews, then dissects Donald Trump's words for himself, while sharing select pieces of the actual speech.

All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live from Israel...

On today's show, Marty discusses Israel's participation in the Paris COP21 climate change conference.

On today's show, Marty documents the increase in anti-Semitism in Europe, Canada, Australia, and America. What is the meaning of it? What is the message? What should the Jews be doing about it? Also...Truth really IS stranger than fiction...With the world actually going up in flames around our ears, the United Nations General Assembly saw fit to pass SIX ant-Israel resolutions on Tuesday. Marty discusses the resolutions and poses the question, "Has the United Nations outlived its usefulness?" All this and more on today's "Marty Roberts Show", recorded live from Israel...

On today's show, Marty talks about this incredible archaeological find of an ancient fertility statue, and also gets in to the history of the Israeli city of Bet Shemesh, then and now. Also, the amazing 5000 year-old structure on the Golan Heights that just might well be Israel's own Stonehenge... All this and more on today's radio show/podcast...

Even the protests against admitting Syrian "refugees" into Europe have turned into blatant anti-semitic hatefests, complete with the burning of orthodox Jews in effigy... On this show, Marty asks the question, "Why?", and even proffers an answer, which you may or may not want to hear.. Spoiler alert: Marty thinks that the time has come for the Jews in exile to come home to Israel...Listen carefully to his reasons....

Marty Roberts talks about the stormy controversy in the US and Canada over syrian immigration, with the US pledging to take in at least 10,000 from Syria and Canada another 65,000. Politicians, governors and the people respond...And security sources confirm.."More Islamic terror to come", which is confirmed by Islamic State videos circulated yesterday threatening more murder and mayhem....

On today's show, listen to the horrifying story of a beautiful family, destroyed forever. Also, on today's show...after yesterdays attacks in Paris, it should be apparent that there REALLY IS a problem with the massive Muslim immigration into Europe. More details about the origins of the terrorists. Deny at your own risk, my good-hearted European friends...

On today's show, I talk about the American-style wild west theme park, High Chapparal in Sweden, which is taking in some 400 immigrant refugees from the Middle East. The park itself is quite an interesting story, but how they are planning on absorbing the refugees takes weirdness to a whole new level... Also emigrating to Europe is the Islamic tradition of "honor killings". That would be murdering innocent young men for dating young Muslim women, not to mention the killing or mutilating of the young woman herself. I discuss the case of Aquib Baig, attacked by Kasim Ali, Adeel Ali and Razi Khalid for dating their sister in Blackburn, Lancashire. Spoiler alert: no prison sentences to be found...

This is a "must listen to" show!!! The piece talks about the Divine promise to the Jewish people leading up to the establishment of the modern Jewish State of Israel, and even talks about Israel's current situation in the community of nations. Some very interesting insights into the "plight" of the"oppressed" palestinians.

Last week, Texas Republican Ted Cruz chaired the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, "Justice Forsaken: How the Federal Government Fails the American Victims of Iranian and Palestinian Terrorism". Needless to say, the Palestinian Liberation Organization was none too pleased with this, and, as a result, decided to rip Cruz a new, ummm, orifice through which to evacuate waste products... Cruz, being Cruz, did not take it lying down, and responded strongly... On today's show, I share some of what went on at the hearing, as well as the ensuing aftermath...

With the help of a recent column by Caroline Glick, it seems obvious that the death of Yitzhak Rabin was NOT the cause of the death of the Oslo-Palestinian peace process, a process that never, in fact, really existed. It would even seem likely that the security-hawk Israeli Prime Minister was probably going to reverse the Oslo process himself, had he lived another few weeks. Palestinians killing Jews is what also killed the peace process...and Yitzhak Rabin knew it...

Marty Roberts shares some recently acquired insights into the concept of "chosen-ness", as it relates to the Jewish People and the Nation of Israel.

Also on today's show...Running marathons in Israel...Marathon running has come of age in Israel, with major races in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and Tiberius.

The Native American and Indigenous Studies Association has joined the BDS Movement and called for an academic boycott of Israel. The American Indians really need to study up a bit on the history of the Middle East. They can start with an important article by Native Canadian Ryan Bellerose recently posted on the Israellycool website which explains clearly and in no uncertain terms that the JEWS are the true indigenous people in Israel. He also conclusively proves that the so-called "palestinians" that the world so loves and pities are ABSOLUTELY NOT indigenous to the Land of Israel. Marty recaps and explains this article on today's show... Plus...Can we once and for all put to rest the idea that Israel is a racist, apartheid state like pre-Mandela South Africa? Listen to this show to learn why, in fact, Israel is the EXACT OPPOSITE of racist and apartheid when it comes to her Arab citizens... All this and more on The Marty Roberts Show

Ever since the renewal of peace talks with the palestinians, Israel has bee experiencing a wave of terror...stabbings, shootings, firebombs and volleys of rockets and missiles... And now, apparently U.S. Secretary of State Kerry is on the way back to the region to ram his version of the "Final Solution" for Israel down Netanyahu and Company's collective throats. Israel cannot afford to participate in her own destruction, G-d forbid! On today's show: The raging palestinian terror in Israel since the peace talks...

From time immemorial, the Arabs and Muslims have managed to base a substantial portion of their culture on people, places and ideas holy to the Jewish People and Israel...Fromk their claim to the Muslim "holiness" of Jerusalem to countless gravesites and Mosques, they steal the heritage of the Jews and claim it as their own... This past November 29th, 2012, the Palestinian Authority chose to hijack the anniversary of the United Nations partition of Palestine, creating the Modern State of Israel and what should have been a palestinian State (which the Arabs refused to accept) and make it the day for their being declared a non-member observer "state" at the UN... On today's show: The story of November 29, 1947...the ORIGINAL United Nations Resolution... Why the recent UN activity is a dual violation of the Oslo Accords...originally intended to be the basis for peace between the Israelis and Palestinian Arabs...A look at the enormous laundry list of violations of Oslo by the Palestinian Authority, which, by all reasonable standards, should make the agreement null and avoid...

The implications of the election results in Egypt are disconcerting to Western lovers of freedom and secular democracy, to say the least, yet the leader of the world's strongest Western democracy is supporting a government that represents the antithesis, the exact opposite of everything Americans hold near and dear to their hearts...the values and ideals of American secular democracy...

The joy of a Jew living in our homeland, Israel... Nothing quite brings it out like the Passover holiday season...Nothing reminds us more strongly just how lucky we are to be able to live here like celebrating Pesach in the Spring right here, in Israel... From the joy of the seder night, to touring Israel's National Parks and historic sites... From the north of the country to the south... And then, there's Jerusalem...Walking the ramparts of the Old City, or visiting the once-in-a-lifetime Ice City... And nowhere else is the Priestly Blessing delivered more authentically... All this is dependent upon Israel remaining the Jewish State...But because we are a secular, democratic Jewish State, all religions are free to celebrate their faith here, including the Christian Easter in Jerusalem...
