Jews against Jews at Campuses

Posted: 04 Jul 2011 06:33 PM PDT

Currently, University of Toronto, Jewish professor  Rupaleem Bhuyan PhD is under media fire lead by Canadian Jewish Congress. Her crime is she refuses to shut-up her students who claim that 'Jews have too much power' in Canada and America. Last year she made a political incorrect statement by calling Israel as "a satellite of the United States, unworthy of distinction as a separate country". Personally, I think she was wrong. The fact is it's Israel which controls the US through Ziocons and Jewish lobby groups. In October 2001, Ariel Sharon educated the current Israeli President Shimon Peres: "I want to tell you something very clear, don't worry about American pressure on Israel, we, the Jewish people control America, and the Americans know it".

There's a cow behind the cottage

Posted: 04 Jul 2011 05:13 PM PDT

'Shai

Shai Hermesh, a Kadima MK, received impressive coverage for his attempt to bring a cow into the Knesset building. In this way, he claimed, he was able to raise awareness for the danger involved in importing milk as a solution to the storm over the price of cottage cheese. The tumult the MK caused at the entrance to the Knesset also amused the Knesset security guard, who explained to Hermesh that the cow, whose name is Zehava, "does not have parliamentary immunity" ( as Zvi Zrahiya reported in TheMarker on 27.6 ).

We're overjoyed - we won again!

Posted: 04 Jul 2011 05:13 PM PDT

Israel is indeed connected to the centers of power in the world. The predictions of a tsunami at present seem to be exaggerated, but nevertheless, before the victory ball, it is worth remembering - the Israeli occupation is the longest military occupation of modern times. The subjects of the occupation in its two forms - the West Bank and the Gaza Strip - live under a brutal regime that few other occupations allowed themselves, without any law - the blockade and the morbidity rate among children, the roadblocks and the arbitrariness of the soldiers, breaking in to people's homes (imagine your children being awakened at night by the shouting of armed men, breaking down doors and blinding them with flashlights; imagine living without any protection ), the prolonged occupation, a disaster for us and for the Palestinians - because Israel enjoys the support of the West.

He is an Islamic 'preacher of hate' whose views reflect 'virulent anti-Semitism' and who has funded Hamas terror operations, according to much of the British media.

The furore last week over Sheikh Raed Salah, described by the Daily Mail newspaper as a "vile militant extremist", goaded the British government into ordering his late-night arrest, pending a fast-track deportation. The raid on his hotel, from which he was taken handcuffed to a police cell, came shortly before he was due to address a meeting in the British parliament attended by several MPs.

For God's sake - stop talking

Posted: 04 Jul 2011 10:11 AM PDT

Lately, there would seem to be a whole lot more people who have a direct channel to the Big Guy Upstairs than one could have humanly thought possible.

It is oft-said that "God works in mysterious ways". But when Michele Bachmann hears voices telling her to run for president, am I the only who thinks the most likely explanation is a batch of bad clams or one-too-many nights role playing The Book of Eli with her equally demented husband Marcus?

'Obama dead, killed by 2 gunshots': FOX News hacked Twitter

Posted: 04 Jul 2011 08:28 AM PDT

The Preseident is Dead! - Well, President Obama is alive and well - but a few concerned internet viewers may have believed the story when a US broadcaster fell victim to a hacker attack. The group broke into Fox's twitter account and entered the hoax news that Barack Obama had been assassinated and Joe Biden had stepped into the job. The hoax 'tweets' said the President was shot twice while campaigning for re-election, when he was, in fact, in the White House. A spokesperson for the hacker group called "script-kiddies" said Fox was targeted because they thought their net-security would be 'as much of a joke as their news'.

Israel and U. S ties- Time Life Pictures/Getty Images- 1993

In October 1991 he came with U.S. President George H.W. Bush to the Madrid Conference, which squandered the fruits of the Gulf War victory. In September 1993 he celebrated, with U.S. President Bill Clinton, the birth of the battered Oslo Accords. In early 1997 he managed to get Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to sign the Hebron Accord, which left tens of thousands of Palestinians to the mercy of the students of Rabbi Dov Lior of Kiryat Arba. In late 1998 he was among those who gave birth to the Wye River Memorandum, which died in infancy. In 2000 he was a senior partner to the reverberating failure of American diplomacy in Israeli-Syrian and Israeli-Palestinian negotiations. And here he is again, this time as U.S. President Barack Obama's special envoy responsible for prolonging the death throes of the terminally ill patient known as the peace process.
