Israel

Why "They" Hate Us

October 19, 2009

Glenn Greenwald…
"One of the most astounding feats in propaganda is how we've managed to take people who live in a country which we invade, bomb and occupy — and who fight against us because we're doing that — and call them "Terrorists," thereby "justifying" continuing to bomb and occupy their country further."
That sentence may not [...]

U.S. Blocks Investigation Into Israeli War Crimes

October 17, 2009

A call to, at least, investigate….
The U.N. Human Rights Council voted Friday to endorse a Gaza war crimes report that calls on Israel and Hamas to investigate alleged abuses, or face possible referral to international war crimes prosecutors.
What was the U.S. position?
The move — which was opposed by six nations, including the United States — [...]

Pride In The President, Part 2

June 7, 2009

Today I continue with Part 2 of my appraisal of President Obama's speech from Cairo, Egypt….
To those Muslims in Hamas, Hizbollah, al-Qaeda, or Iran,…Obama spoke honestly and directly about Israel…
Six million Jews were killed – more than the entire Jewish population of Israel today. Denying that fact is baseless, ignorant, and hateful. Threatening Israel with [...]

Village Idiots

June 4, 2009

Questions.
Does the United States have any "settlements" that are, like, ongoing? Do our citizens use the word "settlements" to describe standard condo building? When U.S. real estate companies advertise their listings, do they print stuff like, "3 bedroom, 2 bath settlement, cheap"? Ever seen something like that?
Washinton Post writer David Ignatius' column is reprinted in [...]

The God Report: Israel's "Religious War"

March 23, 2009

Last week I blogged about the Pope's astonishly out-of-touch statement about AIDS. Pope Benedict said that "condoms increase the problem" of AIDS in Africa.
Here are a few international responses to what the Vicar said…
A New York Times editorial said the pope 'deserves no credence when he distorts scientific findings' about condoms.
A French foreign minister [...]

Hostage Nation

March 16, 2009

As I see it, America, the nation of 300 million, is being held hostage.
It is as if specific and powerful interests have kidnapped the population, placed knives against our collective throats, and then have continually sent ranson notes warning that the kidnappers will slit those throats if the proper authorities do not do exactly as [...]

Israel Still Controlling American Policy

March 11, 2009

America still conducts witchhunts after all these years.
You may or may not have been aware of the contrived controversy over the man selected to be the nation's National Intelligence Council head, Charles Freeman. Catch up here, here and here.
Freeman withdrew himself from consideration to the post yesterday after the well organized Israeli Lobby had conducted [...]

What Would Jesus Say?

January 31, 2009

Gallup has come out with a new poll-map, by state, showing the importance of religion in Americans' daily lives. It seems that, on average, 65% of Americans consider religion important in their daily lives while 35% do not. Ohio ranks 25th, with Ohioans considering religion to be important in their daily lives by 65%.
Now compare [...]

Disgraceful BBC

January 27, 2009

This is truly disgusting.
In more than 80 years as a publicly financed broadcaster with an audience of millions at home and around the world, the BBC has rarely been buffeted as severely as it has in recent days over its decision not to broadcast a television appeal by aid agencies for victims of Israel’s recent [...]

Rovianism….Israeli Style

January 20, 2009

Night after night during the Vietnam conflict, American news programs displayed pictures and gave firsthand reports from the quagmire there. Naturally, hawkish politicos complained that the media was skewing their coverage, turning Americans against the mindless conflict in the jungles of southeast Asia.
Karl Rove learned the Vietnam lesson. The way to conduct a war [...]
