About Me

My photo
Shai Franklin
United States
I was a Cold War brat back when it was still popular. Along the way, I've more often been right by relying upon common sense instead of "inside scoop". I also post columns to Huffington Post and other media outlets, and keep showing up on Shalom TV (and sometimes Al Jazeera). Regardless of any affiliations reflected in my entries, or elsewhere, I am personally and solely accountable for all content I post to this blog.
