What Is It Like To Go On A Date With Luke Ford?

Khunrum emails: "Buddy….I’m wondering just what a Luke Ford "date" consists of. It appears to me that these sweet creatures would settle for nothing less than an pricey ($$$$$) evening out on the town. Why don’t you describe in 50 words or less just what you do when you’re with them."

Here are my last few dates:

* Go to shul. Eat kiddish afterwards followed by a nice walk and some prayerful consideration of the sacred text.
* Yoga.
* Dinner at Milk n Honey.
* A movie (Waltz With Bashir) at the Hollywood Arclight
* A home-cooked meal of lentils and rice at the hovel while viewing a movie on my magnificent entertainment suite
* Mutual sessions of Alexander Technique
* White tantric yoga followed by red tantric yoga, chanting and prayer
* A drive up PCH followed by a walk on the beach and a nice sit on the rocks jutting into the ocean breathing in the pure air and discussing Yogic philosophy
* Taking in a Guru Singh class followed by a special private performance of "Romper Room" at the hovel

I don’t see how a smart guy like you can give props to a movie like Bashir. From what I’ve read about it (including here), it’s a soldier-turned-leftist-working-out-his-guilt film. Now, look, I certainly empathize with whatever trauma this obviously sensitive guy went through. But it doesn’t excuse the damage he does by giving ammunition to Israel’s deadly enemies. These are people who don’t just stand by while others commit murder; they themselves commit and glorify murder, and they never apologize or undergo a moment’s anguish. By putting his own anguish on display for the world, this guy makes Israelis out to be the cruel, agressive ones who murder for the joy of it, when in fact that’s what the other side is like, and it’s Israel acting in self-defense. I despise this person and what he’s doing.
