• Revenge of the Nerds: Partying with the boys of Im Tirtzu

    What a perfect cover....

    Tadmor approached us and asked who we were. We described ourselves as clueless Jewish American tourists who were simply curious about his student group. “We just heard there was some kind of party here,” we said in English.

    A classic line.

• Poll: Israel continues to lose support in the US, especially among liberals

    Another poll:

    One of the fascinating phenomena concerning the way the Israeli Jewish public views world criticism of Israel and Israel's low status in the international community is the perception of a weak connection between Israel's actions and attitudes toward Israel. In other words, it is assumed that no matter what Israel does, it will always incur foreign criticism. The guiding assumption of the majority is that "the whole world is against us"

    Shalala was humiliated during her departure from Israel:

    Despite the delay, she managed to board the flight to the US.

• 1000s of Israeli police said to be evacuating/erasing historical Bedouin village
  • hobbyist July 27, 2010 at 12:38 am with 3 replies

    I would imagine that no one can move men and/or materiel across the deserts better than the Bedouin can. Israel stupidly increases her own security vulnerability by antagonizing and incentivizing these people.

• Ehud Barak threatens Lebanon with 'Dahiya doctrine' in case of new war

    From Haaretz' MESS Report blog, a new causus belli for war:

    The [Nasrallah] leader of the Shi'ite movement also said he had no intention of attacking Israel. But Israeli officials have never considered such an attack very likely. Rather, they say, the most likely spark for a war in the north is a Hezbollah attack on an Israeli target overseas to avenge the 2008 assassination of its operations chief, Imad Mughniyeh, for which it blames Israel.
