– nothing can "rot the values of elite intellectual culture" without "hurting the Jewish soul." The "Jewish soul" is the elite intellectual center of the universe. Ask any Jewish journalist.

It is fairly easy to identify when Murdoch began to get access to easy credit and to find lots of new Zionist investment partners.

I allude to this issue in Followup: Subjugating American Muslims to Israel.

McCain will be the same. Obama? It sure looks like it, but, as he says, there's always hope…

If I were a Jew, I'd be afraid.

Look at the on-going economic trajectory of this country.
In the past, goy serfs suffered most, and when the peasants could not take it anymore (maybe 6 dollar/gal gas tucked after war with Iran?), they vented, looking at what they saw–when they looked up, it was never them in any pilot seat, but a Jew.

The middle ages have never left.

They've just been modified, mostly by luck and putting what was left of the natives on reservations.
