The National Post is Canada’s second newspaper. It is famous (per Wikipedia) for misreporting on its front page two years ago that "IRAN EYES BADGES FOR JEWS". A strong supporter of Israel, it is owned by the Jewish family of the late Izzy Asper, and is over-the-top about Islamofascism and jihad and us being in the same war as Israel.
Here is a crazy piece saying "it may not be long" before Muslims are firing rockets into Newark as they are firing them into Sderot:
Israel is Western civilization’s canary in the coal mine. If Israel cannot survive, perhaps Western civilization — pluralistic, democratic, individualistic, secular, free-trading and devoted to the rule of law — will be unable to last, either.
And here is a piece saying that the Tibetans have true reason to feel oppressed, unlike the Palestinians.
[I]f Islamist claims of a "Holocaust" in Gaza and the West Bank are to be believed, then Tibet has suffered at least 100 holocausts. Wow — that’s a lot of Holocausts
I make the assumption that the National Post never runs pieces by the likes of me. And this is how the Israel lobby works. Zionists use their cultural power to tilt the scales of American journalism in favor of Israel. This is not journalism, it’s propaganda. Even in the Times, bad reporting of this issue has damaged our democracy, as Jerry Slater has established. And meantime the settlements proliferate, and the Financial Times says what no journal here can say: America must choose peace or the settlements.

"Israel is Western civilization's canary in the coal mine" says the Zionist rag.
Lying propaganda. Israel has nothing to do with Western (Greco-Roman-Christian) civilization other than to parasitically draw blood and life-force from it.
Organized Judaism has done nothing but wage war against Western civilization for decades, from Bolshevism to cultural Marxism to Neoconservatism…all of which have systematically eroded Christian and Western consciousness and attempted to replace them with generic, Jewish-written creeds — most of which (not-so-coincidentally) comport to Zionist creeds and place Jews at the top of the nascent caste system.
Western civilization will only survive and again prosper by eradicating not the Muslims, but the Judeofascists. Any Westerner who collaborates with the Judeofascists and their hyper-materialist ideology is the enemy of Western civilization, and should be eradicated with the Judeofascists.
Philip,
Please consider ending the use of sentences like the following:
"Zionists use their cultural power to tilt the scales of American journalism in favor of Israel."
where you repeat the misleading ambiguity that "Zionists are for Israel."
Which Israel are they for? All possible Israels? No, they're for their own narrow idea of Israel, and even "Greater Israel" as you know.
When you use language like that, it includes the assumption that they are inherently "pro-Israel" when the reality is their warmongering and support of atrocities against the Palestinians is vastly out of line *even with the majority of Israelis*.
Please don't give them that gift, even if it's what they think, it's just not accurate and makes it even more difficult to expose and declaw these hardliners/fanatics who are the tail wagging the dog of Israel.
For point of reference, these Zionists definitely do not support negotiations with Hamas, and are chomping at the bit to see Olmert be brought low for even considering it. 64% of Israelis support direct negotiations with Hamas, sans preconditions, immediately. Yet their government doesn't listen to them.
It's like saying the Neocons over here are pro-America, and they may certainly think so, but do you think so? Most Americans sure don't.
I searched on a Chinese search engine for "chinese evil government," and got this:
Myth 6: The recent uprising in Tibet was the result of accumulating resentment against Chinese suppression
Truth: Such statement grossly understates the complexity of the socio-political reality in Tibet.
Different groups of Tibetans have very different feelings towards Han Chinese and the Chinese government
Buddhist monks: Before the Communist takeover in 1950, monks / lamas constitutes the privileged class in Tibetan society, owning massive areas of land and a large number of serfs, who, as we discussed before, were treated practically like slaves. The land reform that took place in the 1950s and, more extensively, the 1960s (after the failed military rebellion in 1959) distributed much of the land that was previously owned by the monasteries to the poor serfs and peasant, causing the economic and social power of the monasteries, as well as the wealth of the monks, to shrink. Later in the 1960, during the Cultural Revolution, former peasants and serfs are encouraged to condemn their former “exploitive masters”. Under popular pressure, some were even forced to involve in productive activities – something unthinkable to the monks when Tibet was under Dalai Lama’s feudalist rule. It is therefore fair to say that the resentment among Tibetan lamas against the so-called oppressive Chinese rule has more to do with the loss of economic and political privileges than the loss of religious freedom. Religious activities are monitored closely in Tibet for the close tie between religion and politics – and in turn social stability, as is clear from the recent turmoil – rather than for the suppression of religion itself."
The apologia goes on to say that the Han Chinese are resented by the Tibetans for being "business-savvy," and that the Dalai Lama continues to make unfortunate and inflammatory statements that set the cause of peace back.
Two sides to everything, eh?
Ed, isn't this a little, uh, over-the-top?

Wasn't Christianity "Jewish written?" Or are you like the Germans described by Milton Mayer in his classic book 'They Thought They Were Free,' who disavowed that Jesus was Jewish?
The thing I find galling about North American Jews going on about Western values, Western society, Western civilization, and so on, was that it was just half a millenium ago that the Jews of Granada appealed to Abu-abdullah Mohammed XII, the last king of the Nasrid dynasty, not to appease the rising power of the Castilians but to take the fight to them. "The vilayatis [loosely, people of the Christian lands]will turn to rubble all the glories of Al-Andalus" were words attributed to one of the king's Jewish viziers. In fact, in the same correspondence the writer goes on to recommend that no mercy be shown to the large number of Marranos (the Jews who converted to Christianity in anticipation of Castilian victory) in the kingdom.
The ironies don't end with Jewish handwringing about our Western (vilayati)culture being under siege. Your earlier blog about the National Post supporting the election of Rome's neo-Fascist mayor is of a piece with all the other stories of new alliances with Dutch and Danish neo-Nazis. Will research positions at the American Enterprise Institute be offered to these people as well?
Oarwell ,Ed:
"Then I said, "Could you tell, if you saw Jesus, that he was a Jew, Herr Simon?
"I think so," he said, "if he was a Jew. But was he a Jew? If he was, why did the Jews kill him? Can you tell me that?" (They Thought They Were Free (1955), pp 136-137.
Assuming Jesus existed and was a Jew, what interest do you imagine the particular segment of Jews who presented the Jesus issue before the gentile Pilate had? (Pilate had to take the case since he was responsible for management of his colonial jurisdiction in the interest of Rome.)
Do you think Jesus sought to extend/change the Jewish definition of "neighbor?"
Apparently what bothers some of the Jewish diaspora, is not the fascism part of Islamic/fascism. In Rome a fascist mayor was elected with the support of the organized Jewish community. Supposedly, because the fascist candidate would be more friendly to Israel's interests.
On the other hand, its interesting to read of an Iranian Jewish MP's strong criticism of Israel, wonder if that will make the NY Times…?

No on first sight at the AEI it seems to be more about Americanism as the Forth Religion. The fascist enemy is always out there, as Michael Ledeen knows.
