WorldNetDaily Editor Joseph Farah will address the Baron Hirsch Synagogue, founded more than 130 years ago in Memphis, Tenn., and the flagship of American Orthodox Judaism, on the subject of the Middle East today.
Baron Hirsch is the largest Orthodox congregation in the United States, presided over by Rabbi Raphael Grossman, the first non-New York-area rabbi elected president of the Rabbinical Council of America. He now serves as honorary president and chairman of the Rabbinical Council International.
The synagogue is known for its lectures by prominent Jewish scholars. Recent events included talks by Gen. Shlomo Laht, mayor of Tel Aviv; Dr. Yossi Beilin, author of the Oslo Accords; and Zev Begin, Israel’s former minister of science.
More rare are apperarances by non-Jews, such as Farah, an Arab-American journalist who writes a daily column for WorldNetDaily and a weekly column for the Jerusalem Post.
Farah is the founder, editor and chief executive officer of WorldNetDaily.com, the Internet’s fastest-growing independent newssite. Farah has written for such publications as the Wall Street Journal, National Review, TV Guide, Reason, Los Angeles Times, Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Sun-Times and a host of other national, international and regional publications.
He is the co-author, with U.S. Rep. Richard Pombo, of “This Land is Our Land” (1996), and in 1994 collaborated with Rush Limbaugh on the No. 1 New York Times best-seller “See, I Told You So.”
Farah made a name for himself with traditional daily newspapers prior to his founding of WorldNetDaily – running the Sacramento Union, directing the news operation of the Los Angeles Herald Examiner for nine years and serving as editor-in-chief of a group of California dailies and weeklies.
His role as founder of the Western Journalism Center won him the Washington Times Foundation’s National Service Award in 1996. Two years earlier, in 1994, he was honored by the American-Swiss Foundation as one of 20 “Young Leaders” who traveled to Europe for discussions with their distinguished counterparts abroad. Farah’s many journalism awards include honors for reporting to writing headlines to honesty in journalism to editing and newspaper design.
Farah’s talk is open to the general public. For more information, call 901-683-7485.
