Hasby Awards - Best Speech

The Hasby Award for Best Speech of 2015 goes to....


Col. Richard Kemp:


This speech was a 40-minute tour de force describing why Israel is right and why so many people today want to demonize it - and its defenders. Kemp is an amazing person with a clear moral conscience. It is sad that these qualities are so rare nowadays.




The popular vote for this category was tied, and then the winner went ahead on the blog vote while the opponent did better on an impromptu Twitter poll I added to possibly break the tie. Since the primary voting is through the blog, the winner is:

George Deek
The Reason I'm an Israeli-Arab Diplomat Not a Palestinian Refugee


Deek is great, as he single-handedly demolishes the "apartheid" libel by his very existence.



Congratulations on the winners!
