Kidnapped Israeli Reservist Goldwasser’s Wife Appeals to U.S. for Assistance the Eve of Key Primary U.S. Elections

Written by Joyce Chow and William Hoehne 

Israeli Karmit Goldwasser, wife of kidnapped Israeli reservist Ehud Goldwasser, pleaded for assistance this evening in a press conference held with his father, Shlomo Goldwasser at the Beverly Hills Hilton in Beverly Hills.

After a brief introduction by the General Consulate of Israel, Goldwasser shared that her husband is not a solder. I want him back.

Ehud Goldwasser, a 31 year old Israeli reservist was kidnapped with two others on July 12th by Hezbollah Zarit terrorists inside Israel’s border. Goldwasser was on reserve duty in the Israeli army and was kidnapped in the midst of combat with two others.

This evening Goldwasser came to appeal to the left wing in the United States, that believe in peace at all costs, to get our country to order the surrender of Israel to Hezbollah and Hamas, thus not only ensuring the death of her husband at the hands of the terrorists but also the destruction of all of Israel by these same people.

It’s a shame that people care more about themselves than they do about the people around them.

The timing of Goldwasser’s appeal, for the 10 pm news tonight for the West Coast and the morning news tomorrow, is suspect with key U.S. election primaries in other states tends to make one believe that she was brought here by the Democratic party to change an election that they were afraid they might not win. The fate of moderate elected officials are in jeopardy in tomorrow’s primary elections.

The election of extremely liberal politicians to office, virtually ensures that the country will remain in Republican hands and that it will be further to the right than it is now. Nothing brings out a conservative Republican to vote more than the fear that Liberals will be running the country.

Kevin Collins, Senior Program Manager of Microsoft proudly demonstrated what they believed to be the cheapest player for consumers for the 4th quarter to the drama of the “Phantom of the Opera”. No price was given.

Collins shared the demo, in its pre-release. It will be a fully functional HD DVD player. It connects to the XBOX 360 via a USB 2.0 cable with audio/video processing via the power of the XBOX 360 via existing AV connections to HDTV. He had nothing up his sleeve, as he was wearing a short sleeve shirt, nor beneath as he revealed his HD DVD black t-shirt.

Microsoft’s internal research shows that 30% of consumers intending to purchase game consoles have HD capable displays and 64% of XBOX 360 owners have HD capable displays. By giving the consumer a choice, consumers can choose when to enter the HD DVD market. Microsoft’s idea of keeping costs down.

While many are anxious for Microsoft's 4th quarter release, you can anticipate lines and overnight stays to be the first in line at electronic retailers such as Best Buy and Circuit City, demand outpacing supply and auctions on eBay for multiple times the purchase price.  Happy Holidays.
