Today, a discussion about the ever evolving Middle East crises. Noted historian Daniel Pipes, the author of “Israel Victory: How Zionists Win Acceptance and Palestinians Get Liberated,” joins us to offer a new approach to the problems. Dr. Pipes believes it is time for a radical change in the way both Israel and the Palestinians approach their security and self-determination. The Palestinians must finally stop their rejectionism of Israel while the Jewish state can no longer afford to offer conciliations that consistently backfire. We explore the definition of victory, both on and off the battlefield, that could lead to peace.

James Deary, a successful business entrepreneur and family man. never wanted to be a psychic medium. This ability more or less “happened” to him. His first near-death experience occurred when he was two years old. At age eight, he saw his first apparition. Soon thereafter, psychic experiences became commonplace. Looking back, he was always a clairvoyant who could see Spirit, but the sensing, knowing, and hearing Spirit developed over many years. He has published a memoir entitled, “The Birth of an American Medium.” Jim has never been in it for profit, he is as regular a guy as anyone. He just happen to have certain gifts and offers evidence that the experiences are real. A fascinating conversation awaits!
