"And I remember when Alex Cockburn lost his job at the Village Voice because he had gotten some grant from an Arab friendship organization."

Was that the one where he shot all those photos of the Arab women laying out in their burkhas?

Scandalous indeed.

btw Joachim - If that woman is a representative of ashkenazi invader jews, where do I sign up to have my country invaded?

Hebrewhaha

"Two weeks ago, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni hosted a conference where she launched a new multi-million dollar project to "rebrand" Israel. ... According to research conducted by a number of public relations firms, Israel’s international image is one of a war-torn society riddled with religious fanatics and intolerance.

"She has hired a whole host of public relations firms who have conducted focus groups and used other mass marketing tools to figure out how to reinvent Israel in a manner that will make people like it.

"To this end, they plan to move the emphasis of Israel’s public diplomacy from defending Israel in its bid to defend itself against its neighbors who seek its destruction to promoting Israel as a "fun" country. They will market Israel as a libertine country replete with beautiful beaches, beautiful women, wild nightlife and a large, dynamic and booming hi-tech economy.

"As Livni’s adviser Ido Aharoni explained to reporters, "Israel is not perceived as fun or normal. Our job is to say, ‘Yes, we are not normal, but we are far more normal than you think.’ "

Come on Phil, I know your married, probably for a while, but your not dead. You can't not be impressed here. BTW lets have competing photo shoots. Girls of the IDF vs. the babes of Hamas. Internet vote maybe?

One other note, I don't know the Cockburn details but it strikes me that there is a qualitative difference between whats supposed to be political commentary and news and Maxim, ( a great publication by the way ) Although in a world where the association of British journalists has freaking vote about their baias and comes out pro-palestinian, well, who knows

That settles it. I shall no longer regard Maxim as a serious newsmagazine. (Take heed, Details.)

"Yes, we are not normal, but we are far more normal than you think."

The problem with this tactic is that if they push the "normalcy" theme too far, they're going to lose the support of folks like Richard Witty.

Zionists have long used multi-tier, viral and guerilla marketing to sell their product.

Sex sells, and when one is trying to create a positive image of something so ugly as Zionism, a pretty gal in a bikini is not a bad idea in today's marketplace of ideas.

Stanislawski has documented the use of homoerotic images during the 20s and 30s. Such imagery was common in other fascist and ethnic fundamentalist movements of the time period.

Recently (in 2003) college Zionists distributed Zionist-message condoms.

The Israeli government commission Uris to write Exodus and has been long involved in funding and distribution pro-Zionist, Arabophobic and Islamophobic film.

Jack Shaheen has extensively documented Arabophobia and Islamophobia in US film but has been much too circumspect in identifying the critical role that Zionist fanaticism and ethnic Ashkenazi racism has played in such demonization.

Boy Joechem, dinner at your house, up on the planet klingon, must be a barrel of laughs. What's the story, did some Jewish kid kill your pet cockroach when you were a kid.

Por Bill, placing his dick between the Hamas and the Evil.

Sorry, I mean "the Hammer and the Anvil."
