Dennis Prager | The Ten Commandments: Still the Best Moral CodeThe Ten Commandments: Still the Best Moral Code

The most important words ever written are the Ten Commandments. These words changed the world when they were first presented at Mt. Sinai to Israelites, and they are changing it now. They are the foundation stones of Western Civilization.

Does Israel show selective compassion to the world vs. the Palestinians?

Chris responds to Asher Schechter’s Haaretz article, Israel sends aid to Nepal, but what about Gaza? On Israel’s selective compassion.

“After the mega-quake in Nepal that has claimed more than six-thousand lives, many nations got busy bringing relief to the devastated cities and towns. One of the first countries to respond to Nepal’s humanitarian needs was Israel. Israel has a great reputation for bringing relief directly after disaster hits. Recently, they were one of the first to build a medical facility after the Haitian earthquake in 2010, in 2011 Israel responded to the Fukushima nuclear disaster after the tsunami that hit the coast of Japan, and in 2013 Israel sent a humanitarian relief team to aid the Philippines after a massive typhoon practically swallowed up coastal towns. And as I’m talking to you now Israel is active in providing aid to those in Nepal.” Listen to the entire segment starting @11:45.
