The Jews Have No Right to a State
2008-05-23 04:55:00 Commenter James Schipper makes an argument that I have made many times - that the Jews had no right to a state. I would still argue that they have no right to one now. I would add that the Jews have no right to a state, unless someone wishes to donate one to them. As people without a territory similar to the Gypsies, there is no way that territory-less ethnics have a right to a state.The Gypsies don't have a right to one either. The persecution of the Jews was lamentable to horrifying, depending on the period, but it was close to the same for the Gypsies too. As it stands, the only way for the Jews to get a state was to steal one, and it's the only way the Gypsies will get one either. He coins the phrase "non-territorial nation" to describe both Jews and Gypsies. It's a nice phrase.Ilan Pappe, the Israeli scholar, makes a similar argument. Pappe says that the Jewish nationalist movement had two positive aspects: it argued for Jewish self-determination and it offered a way for th...

Cool Nabka Article
2008-05-22 10:28:00 By Joseph Mossad. Mossad is an instructor at Colombia University who has been targeted by the Jewish Zionist David Project who tried to get him fired on the basis of a bunch of made-up bullshit, primarily that he made anti-Semitic remarks. Mossad is a Palestinian and he is not too happy with the Jews in Palestine, but he is the last person to be an anti-Semite.In fact, I think he takes his anti-anti-Semitism way too far when he denies, Chomsky-like, the notion that there is no Jewish Lobby that exerts tremendous power in the US. Instead, the whole reason for US support for Israel is that it is some kind of an outpost of US imperialism in the Arab World. This thesis is appealing to Leftists because it absolves Jews of wrongdoing, but it's nonsense.If anyone is a colony of anyone, the US is a colony of Israel. The US gets zero benefits from its so-called Israeli colony and a ton of heartache and bloodshed. The Israeli outpost has zero value and lots of negative value to US imperialis...

Evil Jews Bleed Gentile to Death for Matzos
2008-05-05 03:58:00 Take a look at this sordid spectacle here. A pack of vicious, feral, Asiatic Zionist Jews surround a poor Gentile, Lance Thruster, (actually a stand-in for Jesus) in the woods somewhere in the Pale of Russia, torture him to death by crucifixion, and are in the process of draining all of the blood out of his body with thousands of pricks with tiny knives.The blood is being collected as I write this, and Lance is still alive and typing somehow despite being nailed to the holy cross like our Savior. The blood will be collected and used to prepare matzo balls. The Blood Libel is no libel - it's actual truth, and you can see it right here on the Internets.Seriously folks, I happen to know Lance, and I don't really think he is an anti-Semite at all. I think he's a college student at USC, my alma mater. He just hates Israel, that's all. These Zionist Jews are torturing him and roasting him over their fire, calling him racist, fascist, anti-Semite, Nazi, KKK, Jew-hater, bigot, skinhead...

That Long Newspaper Spoon
2008-04-24 09:25:00 Let's see what's on the end of that long newspaper spoon... William Burroughs, "Naked Lunch" (1959).This book really ought to be mandatory reading for all second graders, by the way.On the end of that long newspaper spoon? A mean gruel and lies, cons and mind-heists.Let us look at a few recent topics: How I Helped Moved a Factory To Mexico, from Business Week, actually a pretty good business publication. This article goes to show you the sheer insanity of the US government. Sure, global forces often more or less mandate taking plants out of the country.The factory in the US closes, and $18/hour workers lose their jobs. The jobs go to Mexico, where the same work pays $3/hour, including benefits. Since $3/hour is not nearly as good as $18/hour, the flood from Mexico to the US continues.Almost no one in Mexico is starving. As an illegal alien farm worker from Oaxaca told me over drinks at the bar about Oaxaca, "Comida, si. Dinero, no." In Oaxaca, there is plenty of food, but no mone...

Settler Criminals Not Innocent Civilians
2008-03-10 11:55:00 Via Joachim Martillo, we have this interesting piece, Settler Criminals Not Innocent Civilians, on the attack on the Yeshivat Merkaz haRav in Jerusalem that killed 8 young Israeli male yeshiva students. There are some errors in this piece.Yohai Livshitz and Neria Cohen are from Jerusalem, but according to Martillo, they both live in land colonized by the Israelis in East Jerusalem after 1967. This never-ending theft of Palestinian land in East Jerusalem is an ongoing project that is rarely remarked on in the US press. Like most settler issues, it gets orders of magnitude more press in Israel than the US. In this sense, the US is much more of a "Jewish state" than Israel.Although Martillo justifies this attack, I have a hard time doing so. The attacker definitely picked a pretty good target, but the problem is that half of the students are minors. If it can be proven that these young men were involved in violence against Palestinians in the Territories, perhaps that makes them a targ...

Lobby Goes After US Doctors
2008-02-21 11:53:00 I told you they were the most anti-democratic ethnic group in America. This is really getting weird. It's no wonder people are so frightened to oppose Israel or support Palestinians publicly. The Israeli Lobby plays for keeps all right.Via Joachim Martillo, a piece about a local peace activist, a physician of all people, who got involved in some anti-war and pro-Palestinian protests and got arrested on civil disobedience charges in the course of her activities. As a result, local Jews somehow managed to lobby her employer to get her fired from her job as a doctor due to her anti-Israel views.What's interesting is that when they hired her, the clinic already knew she was an outspoken liberal on a variety of issues, and an anti-war activist. That was all just fine until she started protesting for the Palestinians out in front of a local synagogue. Then all Hell broke lose. Whew. It's getting hard to believe these stories these coming out these days.I can't figure out if she has be...

Another View of Imad Mughniyeh
2008-02-21 11:03:00 We've heard quite a bit in the Western press lately about how Imad Mughniyeh (Hezbollah's top military tactician, killed by a car bomb in Damascus on February 13, apparently by the Mossad) was the most evil man that ever lived. Interestingly, he justified his crimes by saying he was just doing to the enemy what they were doing to his people.US forces were supporting the Lebanese Christian Maronite state that, aligned with Israel, was committing massacres of, torturing and imprisoning thousands of Lebanese Shia in Southern Lebanon.After Israel invaded Lebanon and the Shia started fighting back, Israel arrested thousands of Shia on vagues charges of either joining the insurgency or supporting it. They were put in an Israeli prison in Lebanon and beaten there.After the war got going, the Maronite regime was massacring Lebanese civilians in South Lebanon. The Maronites probably committed more massacres than any other faction in that war, despite Zionist and pro-US propaganda saying t...

Beatles - Don't Let it Be
2008-02-20 11:32:00 Via Joachim Martillo, we get this nice essay on the use of the Beatles by the Israeli Lobby in the West. There are a few interesting points here. First of all, as a former music journalist who used to work in Hollywood and interview rock stars at music industry offices, it is true that there are many Jews in the industry.But not everyone in the industry is Jewish. Jews are to be found throughout the industry though, especially as talent scouts, executives, in the radio business, and as producers. Quite a few stars were also Jewish. I'm just guessing, but I do not think that the music industry is as Jewish as the movie biz.The biggest Zionists of all are wealthy Jews. If you are Jewish and make a lot of money, it seems that you automatically become a strong Israel supporter. How this works I do not know. Surely not all US Jews are wealthy.Around 10% or so are poor to low-income. If you go to Jewish sites, sometimes you see US Jews railing about their materialistic and success-deman...

Imad Mughniyeh is Dead
2008-02-13 12:12:00 One of the only known photos of the super-elusive and ultra-mysterious Imad Mughniyeh, Hezbollah mastermind. He was so slippery he was dubbed Hezbollah's Carlos, after the famous terrorist Carlos from the 1970's.I can't stress the importance of this news.Imad Mughniyeh, Supreme Commander of Hezbollah for the past 25 years, has been killed in a car bomb in Damascus last night, February 12, at 10:45 PM. He was on the CIA's Most Wanted List with a $25 million bounty on his head.He was the only person killed when a silver Mitsubishi Pajero vehicle (apparently Mughniyeh's car) exploded in the upscale Kafar Soussa District in the vicinity of a Iranian school that teaches religion to Iranian pupils. Several other cars were damaged and windows of surrounding buildings were blown out. Residents gathered in their pajamas to look at the scene. A single body lay in the street, covered by a white sheet.Kafar Soussa has many apartment buildings constructed in recent years, along with a large...

Gazans Smash Down Border Barrier
2008-01-29 08:03:00 If you have been following the news, you may have noticed that a few days ago, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip blew up the barrier along the Gaza-Egypt border. Mobs of Palestinians stormed through, and Egyptian forces were powerless to stop them. Saturday, January 26, they drove hundreds of vehicles through a new hole in the fence that they smashed on Friday.The original holes in the fence were blown up by charges planted by armed groups on Wednesday, January 23. Since then, maybe 750,000 Gazans have stormed through the holes in the fence over three days, fighting at times with Egyptian border guards. On Saturday, 40 border guards were injured, some critically, in fights with stampeding Palestinians.Palestinians are heading for doctors, visiting relatives, and stocking up on everything you could possibly imagine, food, light bulbs, gasoline, oil, cement and even buying animals. Camels, sheep and cattle have been purchased and then guided back into Gaza.The Debka website, though a M...

The famous Russian neo-Nazi video is on this blog here.The logo of the PFLP, founded by Habash in 1967, after the Arabs' cataclysmic loss to Israel in the Six Day War.

Zionists Swiftboat Ron Paul
2008-01-16 00:21:00 The latest death toll figures from Hurricane Katrina can be seen on this website here. The hard to find Russian neo-Nazi beheading video is on this blog here.I am running a rejoinder from Joachim Martillo on the latest Ron Paul attacks accusing him of racism, homophobia, etc. Although I have been running a lot of Ron Paul hit pieces myself, I figure his supporters deserve some equal time.In addition to this post, in another post, Martillo notes on his site that the local Jewish community near Cambridge, Massachusetts has discussed helping to fund some of the publications of the interesting anti-German movement in Germany, a movement we discussed on this blog here.Here is a nice article from an Israeli paper giving a fascinating overview of this Leftist, pro-Israeli movement. They do have an interesting critique in that they do not want to see Germany falling back into old habits, and they fear that the anti-Zionist movement on the German Left may be facilitating that.One anti-German...

Mike Huckabee, Christian Zionist
2008-01-09 14:41:00 Via Joachim Martillo, once again, a very nice essay from a cool website called Jews On First. The site was founded by primarily liberal and secular Jews who are worried about the power of Christian Right lunatics in US society. The site also spouts a very liberal and pro-Palestinian view that is skeptical of Israeli goals.This sort of site is interesting because although most Jews are dubious of, if not outright hostile to, Christianity in general, most Jews are truly disgusted by Christian fundamentalism, because hardcore Christianity has rarely been Jew-friendly.This particular batch of Christian nuts claims to be pro-Jewish, but only because their goal results in the conversion of all Jew and the death of all those who obstinately refuse to convert. Whether this vision is objectively anti-Semitic or not is a matter of opinion.Quite a few rightwing Zionist Jews, especially the religious, who are paradoxically most hostile to Christianity of all, are cynically supporting this silli...

Ron Paul as Israeli-Lobby Killer
2008-01-04 14:24:00 Via fellow blogger Joachim Martillo. Martillo dissects the Ron Paul phenomenon, then follows with a piece by his wife, Karin Friedman. Both are Jews who converted to Islam. Martillo makes some interesting points.First of all, Paul obviously has serious xenophobic tendencies. It's preposterous to eliminate all student visas from "terrorist nations", whatever that means. It's hard enough to get any kind of a visa from the Muslim World these days anyway.Martillo seems to be correct that Paul used to be a segregationist, and it is very disturbing that Paul is the favorite candidate of the White Racist Far Right. Paul has made some statements against Blacks that were regarded as racist in 1992. I have reviewed those remarks and do not find them to be racist, in general, though I am not certain that "95% of young Black males in Washington, DC are semi-criminal or criminal".Of course free market libertarianism not only leads to monopolies, but it is also impossible. At least Marxism can ...
