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 [...]

Obama's Muted Response To Gaza Crisis

January 15, 2009

About-to-be president, Barack Obama, has had no problem communicating with other governmental leaders and the American people about his intentions in dealing with the collapsed economy.

Being Properly Educated

January 14, 2009

Protestors in Chicago, obviously uneducated. Here's a 1:40 ThinkProgress compilation where Serious Experts in Mediaworld describe, in their unmistakenly serious way, how the make-believe script of an hour long make-believe teevee program, delivered by make-believe torture-hero Jack Bauer, should be a definitive teaching lesson that Americans should take to heart. As a child, I often [...]

January 11, 2009

Booman has just an excellent piece up on the conflict in Gaza. Here's the last part of it… 1. In January 2006, President Bush ignored the concerns of both Israel and the Palestinian Authority (under Fatah) and insisted on elections in the occupied territories. 2. In tandem with this policy, the Bush administration spent approximately [...]

Why Israeli Leaders Terrorize Palestinians

January 9, 2009

I must say, the brutal and criminal attack by Israeli military forces on Palestinians in Gaza, followed by the despicable responses from the Bush administration and a Democratic Congress to that criminal, savage attack, has been burning my ass in the extreme. There are no comprehensible justifications for the wicked responses from American leaders. None [...]

Shameful Things

January 9, 2009

Here are two good reasons why Americans should be ashamed of their country right now. The United States late Saturday blocked approval of a U.N. Security Council statement calling for an immediate cease-fire in the Gaza Strip and southern Israel and expressing concern at the escalation of violence between Israel and Hamas.

"Hamas Infrastructure"

January 6, 2009

For those who unwaveringly support every action of America's satellite state of Israel…it's time to check the scoreboard. Until Monday, only one Israeli soldier had been killed in the military campaign. Meanwhile, Gaza medical officials said that 562 Palestinians had been killed — including at least 111 children — and some 2,500 wounded. The figures [...]

More Insanity

January 3, 2009

From the NY Times… Israel moved its troops into Gaza starting a ground offensive eight days after launching an airstrike campaign in efforts to end rocket attacks from Hamas militants.
