The War of Ideas in the Middle East
Maybe not. A Boston Democrat breaks ranks? Some wet underwear on this one, I suspect? Oslo is dead, as it was always a farce.
" if he thinks he can pull off restarting negotiations between Palestinians and Israelis", he should probably be prepared to explain yet more atrocities on the streets of Boston and other places. You know, sooner or later, they will get it right and then what will the Zionists say? Keep dying?
Hej! Tumta
Officer, with a story. Just like the Kennedy's, the McCain's and the Bushes and all the other Frat boys(Obama) and the big Central Banks they front for? You and yours get to pay for it. See you on the other side of poverty.
Hej!
As a five year old, maybe six? I saw police dogs and fire hoses in Alabama as we drove through. My parents were very frightened, I could smell it. We were not a racist family in the late 50's which was unusual. If we and they were facing the Zionists, it probably would not have been clubs and vicious dogs. Live rounds instead. Even Jim Crow Sheriffs were not so bold in their killings.
Hej! Tumta
In the Jim Crow South of the 50's, there are estimates that less than 10% of the population were ever active Klan members, but the wealthy among them controlled the Democratic party, the press and your livelihood. I grew up in a white, non-racist family, but the rule always was that what we talked about at home and who we were friends with was never voiced outside the home.
I am a well paid, Yuppie professional now, but the song remains the same. The only difference now is that it's the JKK, not the KKK. Frankly, I think they are much more formidable.
Hej!
P.S. President Carter must know this?
If I was a Zionist in the West, I would be packing my bags to make "Aliya" and not look back. But I'm some other "ist" and I am packing my bags because being an American Patriot has become a losing proposition.
So sad, time to move on.
Hej! Tumta
Bump!
Not going to happen. Gangsters don't give anything back, you have to take it from them. Just 10 days too late!

Hej!
I think you're over thinking this to death? Syria is clearly the path Obama and El Dulce have decided upon, with Saudi support. They are trying once again to weed out the most serious fighters who are under the Al-Quida banner. Yes, once again.
What do you expect from a bunch of College boys with no skin in the game? May you live in interesting times. They're big on promises(Israel-America), let's see what they deliver this time, other than yet more dead civilians?
Hej!
Tell a fool his opinion matters, he'll follow you. Tell a fool he's a hero and he'll kill for you! The song remains the same.
Hej!
Plausible denial for Democrats, but less so lately. An American President, Jimmy Carter has confirmed Israel's illegal nuclear status and the Democrat Party is complicit in yet another dangerous lie.
BDS should be directed at the Israeli state, it's citizens and their American Bund supporters. Crushing sanctions for all involved.
Hej!
The "South Africa" model is off the table, don't you think? "French Algeria" and other models are on the table maybe. I'm afraid it's time to chose? In the end, they always fold very fast once they over extend themselves. What is left to the Zionists other than out and out, no denying it, Genocide? What will the democrats say?
Hej! Tumta
What about the day you can longer care? You must act or fade away. Are you going to step up in the next round? I'm older so it's a different calculation, but that's where it's headed, yet again.
Hej!
"“Probably the most serious disclosure (of those of which we are aware) was the TOP SECRET NSA RAISIN manual, which lists the physical parameters of every known signal [or electronic communication], notes how we collect signals around the world, and lists all the known communications links then used by the Soviet Union,” Bowman writes." Bowman just explained it. The "TOP SECRET NSA RAISIN manual" represented the collective efforts of all American intelligence efforts since the end of WW2. The value was incalculable. It told any adversery the limits of our electronic vision world-wide. It also put Soviet nuclear attack subs on the tails of all U.S. missile firing boomers within weeks of the Soviets receiving it. Set us up to lose WWIII.
To date, the Israelis have refused to return the information which fills a large room for an accounting. Pollard's high level accomplice that was providing document number lists for him to collect has not been publically identified. Two conditions which should be met before even discussing the disposal of this traitor.
No, Steven Colbert is the "Grand Wizard of Hasbara"! They're in deep shit. Reminds me of the first time I saw SNL, back in country from Asia. Everybody in the day room that night was left questioning everything we had just been part of and then when we went back, but we went back with a different viewpoint. Nothing was said that night, nothing was discussed, but everything had changed. Things were never the same. A Tipping point, I think?
Hej! Tumta
Defund NPR! Let those that own it, fund it. Why should our tax dollars subsidize their propaganda? All the good stuff can pay for itself commercially. It's sad to say, but who can deny that NPR isn't Hasbara Central just like the other 5 major commercial media outlets they control. NPR radio in my area features speakers from the Hudson Institute no less, while the local engineering institute carries El-Pacifico(Democracy Now) free and unsubsidized on their own nickel.
The Zionist Democrat that runs the NPR station says Democracy Now will never be broadcast on public radio in this area and so far he's right. Imagine why? I'm amazed every morning that I get to hear it. Sort of like East Germany some time ago?
Hej! Tumta
"what if one of the guests or speakers had lost family members and friends at the hands of the IDF, and maybe even the same individual from StandWithUS?"
Perhaps if that guest was well armed, the intimidation would have evaporated? At any rate, given these individuals resumes, I suppose they are prepared to do more than debate. That's why their unafraid to show up at your party and behave the way they did. I wonder if they were, in fact, armed or someone was in the shadows? Could it be that easy to be that brazen here or are they somehow wrong?
Hej!
All children throw stones, it's just that they're usually not shot to death for it. Perhaps you'll be happier when their older and well armed and shoot back. I'll bet you can't even imagine it?
Hej!
So you agree that an eventual Palestinian State should be disarmed and subdued. Jim Crow. Only resist with a vote they and you don't have? Occupied people have the right to resist by any means possible with deadly force until they are gone?
How will you or anyone else resist the powers that be, unarmed? I would just bayonet you as you are irrelevant. End of discussion. The Zionists now this, you don't. Come back when your not wearing short pants.
Hej! Tumta
Much better to ask McCain to sign the DOD single page form to release his military jacket to the public which he has always refused to do. He has consistently blamed the lack of access on the Pentagon. Not true, he has refused to sign off on allowing the Pentagon to release his military records? There are still Officers that want this to happen, but for how long?
What's in there? Could it be Court Martial referrals by his Commanding Officer in North Viet-Nam for violations of the first 10 general orders while in captivity, including dealing with the enemy. I understand the pressures of war but I wasn't a flying taxi-cab driver with an Admiral for a father and I don't claim to be hero. He does!
The jacket has been copied so he has a problem, but nobody is pushing this issue other than Sydney Schanberg. I'm amazed McCain's still viable. A major loser to his own supporters? You can sell anything in this country!
Hej! Tumta
But what third party? Ron Paul aside, neither one of them are recoverable. Libertarians and Progressives need to talk. We actually disagree on very little other than responsible financial accounting.
Hej!
Human?
Hej!
What 1950s southern American could have foreseen that the Confederacy would arise again not in Alabama, but Palestine? From the viewpoint of many current Christians of the south, Israel is indeed "Dixie".
Hej!
I think this will allow you to watch it.

Hej!
I would remind you that there was never a Jewish Government presence contemplated by the Truman Administration(Jewish Lobby) or any of the UN(League) resolutions. It's supposed to be an International City, not in the hands of any ethnic fanatics.
Hej! Tumta
P.S. Works best for us.
Don't kid yourself "Jim Crow" was a walk in the park compared the most moral army in the world's(and shin bet's) behavior in Palestine. If Dr. King et. al. faced the IDF, Jim Crow would be alive and well today.
Hej!
That veto can be overcome by the General Assembly using the same mechanism as in the Korean War to overcome the Soviet veto. How ironic. In the long run, I don't think resolutions by Israel are the issue. Once a determination has been issued by the ICC, I believe all UN members are required to act save one, the US as it never signed on to the Rome treaty mechanisms? Or is the ratification by the US senate of the earlier war crimes statues sufficient at that point to compel action by the US in the Federal Courts?
Hej!
In Kerry's case, that would be the Boston "Borg". Hardcore, the worst.
If Senator Hagel, an American Senator assumes this post, he can clean house in the Pentagon. Fire anyone that gets a Federal check and holds Israeli citizenship tomorrow morning. I have a list of Defense Department employees he should remove immediately. Doesn't get us there, but it's a start. Names you've never heard of. The cogs in the wheel. That's how bureaucracy works. Run them out.
Hej!
Is this the same "biorabbi" that's heavily invested in certain Israeli controlled American military small-caps?
Hej!
P.S. Small world eh?
So he should just wander into their trap? Better he does a Chas Freeman and acknowledges the futility of opposing the "Borg". Less humiliation and effort. It's not like he hasn't made his way through a bad situation before. At least he might have the strength to do it, I don't. It can't be fun to be made a clown for a greater goal? And that's why they are going after him. They think it's camouflage and it very well may be. We'll see.
Carlk, you making the mistake of thinking that an occupied people, us, still have the luxury of an opinion that somehow matters. That's not how occupation works. Welcome to Palestine and Jim Crow. Know your place.
Hej!
Or playing the only game available to him?
Hej!
Perhaps the US could provide endless modern weapons to the forces resisting occupation anywhere including Palestine as well. MAD.
Then when a pizza parlor gets blown up anywhere, everyone could claim "collateral damage".
Why should the US/Israel thugs have a monopoly on murdering non-combatants and effective propaganda to cover it?
Hej!
And then they came for me. Do the details really matter?
Hej! Tumta
Maybe Phil, you need to re-consider the personal ramifications of letting go, completely. It's very hard.
Is there any other dispute on the Planet that you're willing to put this much energy into?
Hej! Tumta
I don't care about Israeli elections, Hell I don't care about the beauty pageants we hold here every so often.
The useless "Times Union" in Albany, NY actually published a letter to the Editor today that quoted Washington's farewell address on the dangers of foreign entanglements. Advertising revenue must have made a major shift lately!
Haven't seen anything like this here in decades.
Hej! Tumta
"I haven’t seen the film yet, so I will withhold judgment of the film itself". I haven't either and I won't. If I was to be part of torture now(I know what it looks like), I would have to be well paid. It's awful business, it diminishes you. Strips away your humanity while you're doing it. You really need to be very well paid if your not a fanatic. Sadly, every side of every issue has those that are waiting to step up. The song remains the same.
Hej!
So now Americans have to follow elections that they can't vote in? Sound familiar?
Hej! Thetumta
P.S. Where are you going to be Saturday morning?
"Rachele plans on attending the rally and live tweeting the event" Well, that will certainly scare the IDF hardcore special forces operating tonight?
Unfortunately, Likud is not impressed by "killer graphic"s.
I did notice some time ago that they do wet their pants when someone gets in close and does something serious, the hit on Sharon's tourism minister, they totally panicked.
A tweet of a different kind?
Hej! Tumta
He must need a really huge loan this time ? How many Bankruptcies can he get through yet again? LVS can buy him out. Obama can own him. Definitely for sale, what a putz.
Hej!
P.S. I'm sort of surprised that anyone here or anywhere else for that matter cares what the Donald with bad hair and paid for Bimbos thinks? Does he think?
The Israelis are only up for attacking defenseless "cockroaches in a bottle" in Gaza. They have no more stomach for scorpions in Lebanon. Some of them still appreciate that Hezbollah didn't close the "Hammer and Anvil" the last time. They can slaughter defenseless civilians from the air, but if they venture too far north on land, someone will grab them by their "belt-loops".
Hej!
One sentence is in quotes without a source? whom do you attribute the remainder of the highlighted text? wishful thinking or is there a citation?
Hej!
I was there. I survived the Jim Crow South somehow. They were pikers compared to the Zionists. George Wallace would have been ashamed to be associated with the Jewish Zionism of today if you can believe that. Any rational person even in the 50's would not be willing to go down this road without being extremely well paid. Just too much killing required. At some point, you have to do all the killing yourself, all of it. Up close and personal against another human being. No voting involved and no one cares about your opinion unless you have steel in your hand and not even then. The Israeli Zionists know this and always have. They will debate you until the cows come home, but when necessary, they will slaughter everyone they need to. I know, you didn't know.
This is what the Pals have been living with for a long time because of us. Most of us never have had to deal with anything remotely resembling Jewish Racism and you still want to have a discussion about it?
Hej!
"use of violence" is absolutely necessary. We could start with the mysterious disappearance of the 5 Israeli Dolphin submarines, their crews and their stolen nuclear cruise missiles(can anyone explain why the Germans supplied them?) Followed up by an extension of Obama's policy of assassinating anyone he pleases, but by his replacement.
Most of Likud are not American citizens. No problem and according to Obama the ones that are, are no problem either. And their very noisy and out there in your face. How convenient. Hollywood would become a ghost town.
Hej!
"noticing some dangerous issues with religious Zionism. " This is recent a recent development? Your are just now noticing the Judea-Christian wing of Al-Quida. You are going to be very, very disappointed. Bad days ahead.
Hej!
Perhaps, Kenneth Marcus needs to lay awake at night pondering his actions? They are hitting hard, aren't they? Maybe their talk is just 10 days too late?
You're deluding yourselves. I know, I'm an expert.
Hej! Tumta
"You believe that Jimmy Carter is an anti-Semite". Well of course he is, in your Lexicon and he's a "Race Traitor as well". 50's and 60's were tough on all of us. It seems we just can't leave those times behind?
CONTROVERSIAL: America still has to have a Nigger don't we? There appears to be no end to it?
Hej!
I think all Americans, Mooser, lately need a break from the Zionist disaster. I know I do. We are up a tree, never a good position?
Hej!
Who cares about 1,2,3 or 5 states in Palestein. How about foreign-aid for Detroit? A couple of Medal of Honor winners there. If you haven't looked lately, it's starting to look like certain lost cities in Iraq!
Hej!
Probably the tipping point, one way or another?
Hej!
I hope your right and this is not the perfect setup for an attack on Iran? Apart from my concern of yet another huge disappointment for me as an American, I hope to never lose faith in good Sargents. If not for them, I wouldn't be typing this e-mail.
Hej! Tumta
"A critical mass of Zionists — not all of them, but enough to make a significant difference — are not rational actors. "
Five Dolphins to get it started! A critical mass. October/1973 and WW1 rolled into one. Break out the Kool-Aide and nuclear weapons. This is definitely going to be interesting?
Hej!
I fear Revisionist Zionism and Likudnik Israel (specifically by virtue of their inordinate sway over the U.S.) might very well be an ‘existential threat’ to the values of The Enlightenment!” So, what is to be done?
Hej!
"This week's strikes show the ideology for a "Greater Israel" will come with a financial liability that Israeli politicians must be ready to assume if they pursue annexation. "
No, I think we should be be prepared for the the Repulo-Crats to saddle us with this cost as well. When in the last forty years have we not paid the Vig on this corrupt religious project?
Hej!
Have you filed FOIL request for records?
Hej!
2006 South Lebanon.
To read the rest see: Vladimir Jabotinsky, The Iron Wall(We and the Arabs)(1923)
"Thus we conclude that we cannot promise anything to the Arabs of the Land of Israel or the Arab countries. Their voluntary agreement is out of the question. Hence those who hold that an agreement with the natives is an essential condition for Zionism can now say “no” and depart from Zionism. Zionist colonization, even the most restricted, must either be terminated or carried out in defiance of the will of the native population. This colonization can, therefore, continue and develop only under the protection of a force independent of the local population – an iron wall which the native population cannot break through. This is, in toto, our policy towards the Arabs. To formulate it any other way would only be hypocrisy."
Your video does not display the English translation on the bottom of the video?
But your unwilling to do the heavy lifting and that's the key, just pay others to do so for now. If you think this situation is going to be resolved without serious violence, I have a bridge for sale. Good price!
Hej!
P.S. You're just 10 days too late. Perhaps it's time to bail?
"And your gun laws are nuts." I think Hamas and other Palestinians would disagree. After all, Israel has the same position as you when it comes to the rights of the armed citizens of Palestine. How else does any population say "No", seriously if they are defenseless?
Hej!
All ethnics look pretty much alike to me as well. Great food and music choices, anything else, not so much. But oh well, I'm an American and I'm not sorry.
Hej!
Iceland isn't supporting the bid? Perhaps the map is not entirely accurate?
I'm sure a lot of dead Germans would have agreed with you on the ethnic purity thing? Have you stumbled into an episode of "Doctor Who" or have I? One of us has been transported into the 1930's somewhere. Maybe Alabama?
Hej!
So what's next? I, for one, shudder to think. Just 10 days too late. Maybe a little longer.

They budged today! If you piled on with the shorts today, their stock price would be lower. Just saying. They have more down days ahead and you can help. On bad days, short their stock for the day. You might make a little money.
Hej!
P.S. A Palestine short Fund?
More backward than Saudi, Bahrain or Jordan? The Jewish community in Teheran doesn't think so, they're free to leave with great monetary incentives but they stay. Perhaps it's because they have guaranteed representation in the Iranian Parliament? A "vile, repressive regime" in comparison to Bloomberg's white-shirted thugs in NYC? Certainly no worse. Probably not as bad, Israeli. Progressive, I don't think so? Some other smell.
Hej!
Western Christians are about to find out what Palestinian Christians and others have known for some time. With some people, you can't afford to turn the other cheek, you'll just get smacked again. Get over it or forget about it. Look away.
Hej!
Probably none as we're Americans, but most of Lebanon appears to be. What's your point, Israeli? Did you hear the booing at the DNC convention? Your just 10 days too late.
Hej!
I suspect it's water and now natural gas. Sooner or later they plan on stealing both. After all what was the butcher Sharon seeking for those 10 years?
You see what they've done to us.
Extremism and obsession are like a virus plague. An inter-generational obsessive psychological plague.Not to mention one of the most powerful military establishments on the planet, otherwise.
Imagine Jim Jones with a state and 800 lbs. of American manufactured, weapons grade uranium(NUMEC) and the Dolphins to deliver it. Belize would be a Super-Power by now. Break out the grape Kool-Aid.
Hej! Tumta
Apparent censorship failure. Guess Phil's not a technology guy? Interesting site link though, Gore Vidal, no less! Weekend reading.
Hej!
This will be a General Assembly vote, no Security Council. Is there any possibility that the Non-Aligned block can't carry the vote? Access to the ICC is on the table. Is Obama going to withdraw from the UN over Israel after a successful vote? Attacking Iran will probably move it to the back of the bus.
Hej!
P.S. Misterioso, see Ho Chi Minh, Dr. King, Mandela.......
"clever evil or dim-witted good intentions". I've been wondering about this on many issues in addition to this one. It appears to be one or the other. You seem to imply there is a third choice?
