Addiction

 I'm Josh and I'm a coffeeholic!

I love coffee, the stronger the better. I own a Delonghi coffee bean-to-cup machine with a frother. I also drink Israeli Turkish coffee and if I order coffee at Costa, I always ask for extra shots in my cappuccino.

Addiction is loving something so much you can't do without it, for example, me with my wife, I'm addicted to her!

Addiction can be to many things: alcohol, drugs, pills, gambling and more.

But addiction can also be the addiction to spread hate, the addiction to spread incitement against someone else just because you don't like a said person.

An example can be me with Itamar ben Gvir or me with Boaz Golan. I hate their policies and the ideologies they represent, but I also look at the good they do and I'm friends with them despite condemning their policies.

Many people ask me why do you hate Netanyahu and I answer I don't. I hate the hatred he brings along with him but I appreciate the good he has done for the country. I don't hate the person, I hate the bad that's in them.

In life, we have to learn to look at the good in everyone and try to emulate the good in everyone.

The first step in AA is to recognise you have a problem, only then can you move forward to solve the problem.

My good friend, ex MK Ilan Gilon z"l, who passed away in May, was able to work so well with all the different sectors of society because he emulated that philosophy. I heard from Michal Orbach that her husband, ex MK Uri Orbach z"l, used to do the same as well.

Pluralism, accepting everyone, no matter who they are, is so important in life.

Yes, we can be against racism, but remember never to hate or incite against the person, they are misguided, and that's all.

By loving all, we can teach love and slowly people understand that love is acceptance.

Reflection of a year to Blog

It has been just over a year since I started publishing my blog. I started writing a blog on the advice of Hillel Fuld in order to enhance my career and get more people informed about what I do. Unfortunately, as of yet, that hasn't happened, Hillel doesn't get everything right. But in a way, the blog has become a sanctuary for me to talk about my achievements, air my grievances, and let myself feel better in life. I think through the blog I have found clarity in myself on different aspects of my life, I have learned things about myself and what is necessary for me to change and I have learned skills I have that I never thought I needed or could utilise.  In sales, one must believe in the product to sell it. Through the blog, I learned that I need to believe in myself in order to sell myself. It has given me the confidence to push for things I wouldn't have necessarily done. This weekend, I was talking to a friend Martin Heimann who owns a telecommunications company in Manc...

My country is at war

I had written my blog for August and September, they were going to go up very soon but I can't put up trivial things when my country is at war, when my people and friends have been kidnapped and murdered by terrorists calling themselves freedom fighters for Palestine.  Make no mistake Hamas is not Palestine and does not represent any faction of Palestine, they are a terrorist group that cause harm to the Palestinian cause. Any person that harms civilians for their own benefit is evil. Hamas, besides the atrocities they committed last week, use civilians as bait , not allowing them to get to safety and making sure their terrorist headquarters are in vulnerable areas such as childrens' schools and UN hospitals.  As a Zionist Israeli and a left wing activist, the horror on both sides is intense, I lost friends and colleagues; innocent people, civilians who wanted to live. Also in Gaza, people have died due to being held hostage by Hamas, over 200 Israelis have been kidnapped by...
