PIRATES CAPTURED AN “IRANIAN DIRTY BOMB?”

Although American intelligence and government sources are maintaining a strictly observed silence, the same does not apply to the Russians and so it is that we learn the real story of the MV Iran Deyanat. She was an enormous floating dirty bomb, intended to detonate after exiting the Suez Canal at the eastern end of the Mediterranean and in proximity to the coastal cities of Israel. The entire cargo of radioactive sand, obtained by Iran from China (the latter buys desperately needed oil from the former) and sealed in containers which, when the charges on the ship are set off after the crew took to the boats, will be blasted high into the air where prevailing winds will push the highly dangerous and radioactive cloud ashore.  >>>>>

Elderly Israeli killed in Jerusalem terror stabbing

As he tried to escape the scene, the terrorist stopped long enough to plunge his knife into the chest of an elderly pedestrian. Emergency resuscitation efforts by ambulance crews failed.

Despite his own wounds, the police officer managed to shoot the attacker several times. Another passerby then overpowered the injured terrorist.   >>>>>

While there is no doubt that stabbing a man in the chest is an act of terror; this short article uses the word terror/terrorist four times to identify a criminal act.  The problem is that the word ‘terror’ or ‘terrorist’ is not typically used by any newspaper around the world for individual crimes against another.  The same newspaper does not report Israeli-on-Arab or Jew-on-Muslim attacks as acts of terror.  This kind of bias only helps to create a further divide of the people and is a dangerous precedent in reporting.

Without realizing it, it has become common place to label anything an Arab or Muslim does, alleged or actual, as an act of terror.  This type of journalism allows for even non-Muslims who are against the Israeli apartheid and global agenda to continue to hold disdain for those Israel considers its ardent enemies – Arabs and Muslims.  Tsk, tsk.

Report: Hezbollah chief poisoned, Iranian doctors saved his life

The Iraqi Web site Almalaf on Wednesday quoted diplomatic sources in Beirut as saying Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was poisoned last week and that his life was saved by Iranian doctors who were rushed to Lebanon to treat him. >>>>>

Israeli Revealed as owner of South Sudan bound weapons ship

Registration documents gathered by BBC included the confirmation that the ship hijacked by Somalia pirates belonged to a Jewish investor residing in the self proclaimed state of Israel, and not a Ukrainian ship…

For many years, the Khartoum based Sudan government accused Israel of supplying arms and providing training to South Sudan rebels. Kenya is now proofed to be providing the logistical support for arms shipment to South Sudan, a role similar to Chad’s support given to Darfur rebels which has caused the two countries to be in a state of war against each other.  >>>>>

BOMBSHELL! French Police investigate Sarkozy’s background as Mossad agent

At the end of March, 2007, in the ‘last right’ of the election, all departmental managers of the Public Security, around one hundred senior civil servants, were sent a strange electronic mail. The future president was bluntly accused of having been recruited in 1980s by Mossad, the Israeli secret service. >>>>>

Who Put Hate in My Sunday Paper? Uncovering the Israeli-Republican-Evangelical Networks behind the “Obsession” DVD

Answering that question proved harder than one might think, as the groups behind this DVD have worked hard to hide their tracks.   The connections, which are partially concealed in the DVD and the distribution campaign, take one from groups in Israel, to pro-Israel lobby organizations in the United States, to Christian evangelical groups, and to Neoconservative think-tanks.

The “facts” presented by Obsession have already been refuted in several detailed presentations.  For example, see the work of Obsessionwithhate.com and that of Sheila Musaji, as well as Altmuslim.com. Therefore, I am not going to make a point by point refutation of the contents of the DVD.  My intention is to explore the networks that are behind the production and distribution of this DVD, with their clear goal of influencing the 2008 Presidential elections towards John McCain. >>>>>

Israel not among nations getting visa waiver from U.S.

President George W. Bush announced a decision over the weekend to exempt the citizens of seven more countries from the need to apply for U.S. visas; Israel was not among the seven.

The U.S. is also supporting the same measure for an additional six countries – Israel, again, is not one of them. The countries that received the exemptions are Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and South Korea. >>>>>

This piece is designed to make Israel, therefore Israelis, seem like victims or having been left out.  However, Israelis enjoy far greater privileges than countries of Muslim nations, before and post 9/11.  Israeli citizenship, unlike one from Saudi Arabia, also seems not to be something to preclude dual-citizenship holders of Israeli-US, for example, of holding high-level governmental jobs and posts.  This is clearly not the case with other countries.

There may be other arguments to the reason for this.  Since Israel wants Jews to return to Israel, maybe they lobbied against this privilege.  Israel has produced many fake passports, to include European, in order to operate in foreign countries.  There is nothing stopping them from continuing this effort and getting into the US to do something dastardly, while leaving the name Israel out of loop.  If someone gets caught, they were ‘not’ Israeli, but rather Latvian, for example.

But if there is doubt or the consideration that I am just speculating; then I’ll settle for the argument that the best friend of Israel (US) is simply aware of their participation in 9/11 and frankly are tightening the screws a little to have greater control.

Egypt: Sunni scholars sanction ‘electronic Jihad’

Attacking American and Israeli websites by hacking and sabotage is allowed under Islamic law and is a form of ‘Jihad’ or holy war, top Muslim scholars have decreed.

The religious edict (fatwa) issued by a committee from the highest authority in Sunni Islam, Egypt’s Al-Azhar University in Cairo, was published on the website of the Islamist Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood movement on Thursday.  >>>>>

This comes years after the West has used their electronic warfare against even something as innocent as Islamic charities.

Israel Gets Real on Iran

The distinction between the apocalyptic rhetoric Israeli leaders use publicly in relation to Iran, and the more pragmatic view they hold among themselves on how to deal with Tehran and its nuclear program, has long been clear to anyone paying very close attention. In short, it’s clear that many of Israel’s key leaders don’t believe Iran is a suicidal ideologically-crazed regime that would risk destroying itself in order to destroy Israel, and therefore that even a nuclear-armed Iran would not be an “existential threat” to Israel, although clearly it would present a major strategic challenge by fundamentally reordering the balance of military force in the region.  >>>>>

Arab media report: Israel ready to comply with Hamas demands

According to the Saudi Arabian newspaper Ukaz, the top Israeli negotiator, Amos Gilad, informed an unnamed Palestinian source that Israel is ready to free all of the prisoners demanded by the Hamas party in exchange for captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit. Gilad’s office denied the report.  >>>>>

The new face of Islamophobia

The dehuminisation of Islam will not change the above realities.

Overcoming ignorance is the only way to change the situation. Look at the realities of the world we are living in…. look at who is holding the guns, dropping the bombs…. with your money….Only you can put an end to this. >>>>>

Israeli Bestseller Breaks National Taboo

Dr Shlomo Sand argues that the idea of a Jewish nation – whose need for a safe haven was originally used to justify the founding of the state of Israel – is a myth invented little more than a century ago…

In addition, he argues that the Jews were never exiled from the Holy Land, that most of today’s Jews have no historical connection to the land called Israel and that the only political solution to the country’s conflict with the Palestinians is to abolish the Jewish state…

Dr Sand’s main argument is that until little more than a century ago, Jews thought of themselves as Jews only because they shared a common religion. At the turn of the 20th century, he said, Zionist Jews challenged this idea and started creating a national history by inventing the idea that Jews existed as a people separate from their religion.  Equally, the modern Zionist idea of Jews being obligated to return from exile to the Promised Land was entirely alien to Judaism, he added. >>>>>

JACKSON ON OBAMA’S AMERICA

“The most important change would occur in the Middle East, where “decades of putting Israel’s interests first” would end.  Jackson believes that, although “Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades” remain strong, they’ll lose a great deal of their clout when Barack Obama enters the White House…

“Barack is determined to repair our relations with the world of Islam and Muslims,” Jackson says. “Thanks to his background and ecumenical approach, he knows how Muslims feel while remaining committed to his own faith.” >>>>>

While there is report that Obama’s camp is distancing itself from the statement, its probably moreso due to trying not to muddy waters more than about his convictions.  There is nothing wrong with what Jesse Jackson said.  However, the truth does seem to hurt.  Compared with the ‘Schlep’ talk all day, what’s wrong with putting the U.S. before any other nation; and dealing justly with other nations, even though we hold special favor of one over another?

Obama Camp Rejects Jackson’s Claim That He Would Diminish ‘Zionist’ Influence

“As he has made clear throughout his career and throughout this campaign, Barack Obama has a fundamental commitment to a strong U.S.-Israel relationship … As president, he will ensure that Israel can defend itself from every threat it faces, stand with Israel in its quest for a secure peace with its neighbors, and use all elements of American power to end Iran’s illicit nuclear program. >>>>>

This article is extremely biased as Iran doesn’t have an “illicit nuclear program.”  This sounds like projection of Israel’s position on its nuclear arsenal; which by virtually all standards of other nations outside of the U.S. and Israel, is illicit.  In the very same paragraph, the Obama camp seems to back off of Israel by noting that the U.S. and Israel are inseparable, regardless of deeds.  This is pretty ironic, and not very democratic from a nation that places rule of law above any other alliance, legitimate or corrupt.

By the very function of a sovereign nation, the U.S. should place the legitimate interests of its own country before the illegitimate interests of another; or based on a relationship with another.

‘Great Schlep’ pitches Obama to Florida Jews

For Selma Furst, voting for an African-American for president seemed unthinkable. “I grew up with Jewish people and Italian people, but I never lived in a neighborhood that was black,” she said. “Somebody said to me, ‘What do you object to about him?’ I said, well, truthfully, our colors are different.”

Overcoming the prejudices of his grandparents’ generation would be difficult, Bender realized. But he was not going to be alone.  Ari Wallach, co-executive director of Jews Vote, a Jewish advocacy group, also said he saw reluctance among some older, traditionally Democratic Jews to support Obama.  >>>>>

This has not been what has been portrayed in the media for the past decades.  The Jewish culture, of the same generation discussed in the linked article, regularly purported that blacks and Jews had the same struggle(s), shared the same things, and believed in similar values (Judeo-Christian, of course).  But when push comes to shove, I guess that those who were cynical, and consequentially labeled anti-Semitic, may have had a point in their angst about the others’ true colors.

It also goes to show that hatred and bigotry can lead to breaking loyalty to the leftist values of the Democratic Party and jump toward the far right of the Republican Party — the part of the party that has no problem praising Hitler, being anti-Semitic, burning crosses, killing abortionists, starting global war, and is the closest thing to fascism that we know. In other words, “for the sake of not voting for the black (or whichever expletive used in association of this word) guy, I’d rather vote for someone hell-bent on killing me if he could get away with it.”

The point is, both parties are so opposite each other, and in so many ways, that it is inconceivable for a person of sound mind to abandon the principles of morality, justice and policy for which it stands, for the sake of not supporting a party representative, albeit a potential president, merely because of the color of his skin–which should not have any form of measurement in his evaluation in the first place.

This actually falls in line with the phony reasons for allowing Ethiopians to immigrate into Israel, only to later be treated as second-class citizens; because while they were Jewish, they were also African, and of course, black.  This article begs for a re-evaluation of how the media played out the riots related to Watts, CA; Liberty City, FL; Rodney King riots; OJ Simpson trial and Crown Heights, NY.

This article alone should raise many questions regarding what is truly Judeo-Christian, and what is black and white.  In Islam, discriminating against someone on the basis of race is clearly forbidden.

Lebanon stability scraps Israel’s schemes

“The United States as well as the Zionist regime are moving towards downfall and neither one has popularity whatsoever in the Middle East.”

“The Zionist regime has no prestige and weight in Asia, America, Latin America as well as Europe,” he said. >>>>>

Father, forgive me, I will not fight for your Israel

And when you told your father? “Dad was astonished and angry that I had been there and endangered my life. After that we had conversations. He supported me as his daughter and we have a good relationship, but he is decidedly opposed to what I do and even more to my refusal to serve in the army.

“At first he thought this was a passing phase of adolescence and later he understood that this is coming from a place deep inside me. He and I have very similar characters. I, too, fight to the end for what I believe in. But we are opposites ideologically.” >>>>>

It’s worth repeating…She is a perfect example of why Muslims should not be hating any one group of people. She has made a decision of conscience. It is a brave one that places her morals above her nation’s call of duty. May she receive the blessings and protection for her decision.

Olmert admits Arabs in Israel suffer discrimination

Extremists attack several Arab homes in Akka; more Israeli right wingers are flocking into the city

Extremist Jewish rioters continued their attacks against Arab homes and property in Akka, especially in the Eastern neighborhood. Eyewitnesses reported that the attack was more violent than yesterday and that the mobs are surrounding an Arab home.

Dozens of Arab residents of Akka warned that hundreds of Jewish residents from Akka and different parts of the country could carry crimes that could lead to losses in lives, and slammed the police for practically begging the attackers to leave.

Celebrating criminality

“He’s the man who has only done good deeds… He’s the person who is famed for cutting off Palestinians’ heads with a Japanese knife… He’s the man who was born with a knife between his teeth… He’s the head of Mossad, Meir Dagan!” The hall thundered with applause when Rozin announced Dagan as man of the year…

All the journalists who have written on Mossad under Dagan have told how taken Olmert is with the list of operations executed by Mossad. These journalists report that Dagan goes to Olmert’s office every Thursday carrying a list of operations he wants Olmert to approve, and that Olmert approves all of Dagan’s proposals. There is consensus in Israel that Dagan is currently the most influential personality among decision-makers in Tel Aviv, and that due to his achievements, Olmert has twice insisted that his term as head of Mossad be extended.  >>>>>
