uh...clem retired professor of social psychology This user account status is Approved Comments Comments Posts Posts Nancy Pelosi is a fraud through and through. I assume she has taken the oath to uphold the Constitution but does that mean also supporting the PURPOSES of the Constitution as stated in the Preamble: 1) Establish Justice; 2) Insure Domestic Tranquility; 3)Provide for the Common Defense; 4) Promote the General Welfare, etc., etc. ??? On those aims I'd give her an F on her report card. On Pay no attention to Tlaib and Omar, says Pelosi– but she does Maghlawatan: I'm really surprised by your comment - you're normally one of the really critical thinkers on MW. I think this is the "definitive assessment of Obama" - https://www.paulstreet.org/obama-hollow-man-filled-ruling-class-ideas/ On Obama’s foreign policy options were continually limited by Netanyahu and the lobby — Ben Rhodes The picture of Ahed Tamimi had to have been approved for publication by the higher authorities in Israel. Notice how well it is "staged". It seems that it is partly an advertisement for "diversity" since nearly all the personnel in it appear to be POC. Israeli flag-waving knows no limits. As in the US there is lots of diversity the further down the class-structure you go. On Ahed Tamimi should stay in prison because she might slap again — Israeli ethicist Bandolero: those are some pretty strong claims. I googled "antifa" and "Israel Embassy" and nothing came up which supported the connections you say exist. I know one well-known Antifa supporter, Alexander Reid Ross ( who dubs himself a "Scottish Jew") who has written a recent book on the topic. When two or three Palestinian rights supporters began asking him why Antifa doesn't appear to resist Zionism or Zionists, he simply banned us from his website. Other than that I would like to find more definitive evidence of any possible ties which Antifa supporters in America might have to Zionism. Germany has a different history in regards to all this. On Changing the narrative, from BDS to antifa irishmoses: In my day it used to be called the OED for Oxford English Dictionary. I don't think that would have changed. No wonder OECD didn't find it. On As many as 1 million Israelis have left for the U.S. JeffB seems to be taking those PEP pills. (thanks Firesign Theater for that cheerleader drill on "Don't Crush that Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers")---PEP meaning Progressive except for Palestine. He is obviously very upset by Devyn's article as evidenced by rapidity with which it was posted (the very first one) and the length of his commentary---the longest I have ever seen on Mondoweiss. These are (verbal) non-verbal signs which give away his anxiety about the issues which Devyn raises. On No space for Zionism I notice the phrase "incremental genocide" is in quotes. I think it comes from the Israeli historian, Ilan Pappe, who now teaches at the University in Exeter in the UK. At least I recall him using it about three years ago when he came to speak at the University of Victoria in B.C. On Israel’s efforts to erase Palestinian history reflect ‘incremental genocide,’ Ehrenreich says Another excellent Canadian commentary (before Bill 202 was defeated earlier today): https://canadatalksisraelpalestine.ca/2016/05/18/israel-lobby-introduces-misleading-anti-bds-bill-in-ontario-legislature/ On Bill before Ontario legislature falsely claims ‘primary purpose’ of BDS is to boycott Jewish Canadian businesses Just to back up "just"---from the Toronto Globe and Mail: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/ontario-bill-targets-israel-boycott-movement/article30096088/ On Bill before Ontario legislature falsely claims ‘primary purpose’ of BDS is to boycott Jewish Canadian businesses I call her Pillory Clinton myself. It has a nice "ring" to it. On Trump ‘has no business being president’ because he would be ‘neutral’ to Israel — Clinton tells AIPAC load more comments
