Abbas Lies To Israeli Student Group 'I'm Not A Holocaust denier'

 https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6G_gtX9HfwUPPQeHrHaWhu8prE9n7YDvOdpKhQPrKzLpSi6dEMEa9cm4Rd5Siqi7VNsygVnJxPhxP1P49dCCkpeOdEwVJmQZW0uVFaOSpZFyo6hpJ86cGlYXjEuRGUc_JAWu9/s320/abbas-arafat.jpg

There was an interesting gathering today in Ramallah, the capitol of Mahmoud Abbas, the unelected dictator of the Palestinian Authority:

Abbas spoke to 300 Israeli students, almost all of them left-wing, at the Mukata compound in Ramallah, at an event organized by the One Voice organization and the Knesset’s two-state lobby, headed by MK Hilik Bar. The event was billed as the largest gathering of Israelis in Ramallah since IDF soldiers entered the city in 2002.

The students were supposed to represent the entire spectrum of Israeli politics and Judaism, but no right-wing or kippa-wearing students asked questions. Extremists on the Palestinian side were present, protesting against the meeting outside and hoisting a sign with a Magen David, an equals sign and a swastika.


Imagine how Arab Muslims would react if someone held up a sign with an Islamic crescent and a swastika!

The Palestinian leader denied that he intended to bring millions of refugees from around the world into Israel’s final borders.

“The Israeli propaganda that I intend to flood Israel with five million refugees is nonsense,” he said. “We don’t want to change the demographics in Israel.”

But Abbas also said he would not recognize Israel as a Jewish state, a demand by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that has the endorsement of opposition leader Isaac Herzog.

Abbas said he was not a Holocaust denier and that he was not anti-Semitic. But he also ruled out any Jews remaining in a Palestinian state.


Now that's odd, since Abbas has continuous been adamant about an Arab 'right of return' to Israel. And if he doesn't intend to change the demographics of Israel, why would there be a problem with declaring Israel a Jewish state?

Oh, and that bit about not being a Holocaust denier? Abbas received a doctorate from Moscow's oriental University, and his thesis is on Holocaust denial. It says that the estimated number of Jews killed during World War II was “less than one million” , that the Zionist leadership collaborated with the Nazi regime to “facilitate the wide-spread destruction” of Jews, that the Zionist leadership was interested in convincing the world that a large number of Jews were killed during the war in order to “attain larger gains” after the war and to “divide the booty" among other things. He also questioned the existence of gas chambers and concentration camps, citing the work of French Holocaust-denier Robert Faurisson.

Nor is this merely the ignorance of youth. Abbas' perverted thesis is still used as a standard text in what passes for Palestinian education.

Of course, the truth of the matter is that it was those Arabs who identified themselves as 'Palestinians' who allied themselves with Hitler and the Nazis, most notably their leader the Grand Mufti, Haj Amin al-Husseini, who translated Hitler's 'Mein Kampf' into Arabic, planned a death camp for Palestine's Jews in Nablus with his good friend Adolf Eichmann, and recruited Musdlims all over Europe for Hitler's SS. But wait, there's more.

Abbas admitted that there was incitement against Israel in Palestinian television programs and textbooks. But he blamed Israel for preventing an American committee from being set up that would monitor incitement on both sides.

'Incitement'? When the Palestinain Authority makes heroes and role models out of Arabs whom murder Jews,pays them salaries while they're in jail and gives them a hero's welcome when they're freed? When their schools, mosques and media voice the most foul anti-semitic statements and language on a regular basis? When Mahmoud Abbas just admitted he wants a Jew-free reichlet?

The real culprit here isn't Mahmoud Abbas, Yasser Arafat's right hand man until Arafat succumbed to AIDS. He is whom he is, and the Palestinians are whom they are. No, the real villain is the anti-Israel NGO One Voice and far left Israeli Labor MK Hilik Bar, who orchestrated this and allowed israeli students to be propagandized by Abbas' forked tongue.

That kind of mind rape is indefensible and shameful.

Pro-ObamaCare Ads Showcase The Left's War On Women




The Left unintentionally revealed the contempt they actually have for young, single women and men in a series of ads promoting ObamaCare, paid for by ProgressColorado and the White House funded Colorado Consumer Health Initiative.

'Susie and Nate' are described as 'hot to trot'. And there's 'Susie', waving a packet of birth control pills somebody else paid for while 'Nate' has his hands traveling toward Susie's southern hemisphere. And what's 'Susie' thinking, according to the ad?

"OMG, he's hot! Let's hope he's as easy to get as this birth control. My health insurance covers the pill, which means all I have to worry about is getting him between the covers."

This is exactly the kind of stereotype the Left has always used for women, gaming them that being 'independent' and 'sexually free' is a route to happiness. Ask most young woman you know in their late twenties or early thirties who bought into this say, five or 10 years ago how they feel about it now and you'll be surprised at the bitterness a lot of them express over the choices many of them made encouraged by exactly this kind of propaganda.

Just like the infamous Julia ads pushing ObamaCare, this is about discouraging women from marrying men and encouraging them to marry government.

By the way, these same Lefties have been screaming like wounded peahens for years (and with some justification) about men objectifying women in exactly this way, but appear to have no problem when it's the other way around. And 'Susie' obviously isn't involved in any thoughts typical of the female species in these situations about relationships or being valued for anything by 'Nate' except as a quick lay and sperm toilet.

It gets worse. Check out this next one, a shot of women indulging in a 'shot-ski', a group chugging of a bunch of booze held on a ski, which characterizes young women as binge drinkers and encourages the behavior:




"Get your shots. Shotskis keep us happy. Flu shots keep us healthy. Saving money on Flu shots gives us more money for fun shots. We got insurance. Now you can too."

Actually, if you're young and healthy and actually buy the high cost insurance offered (assuming you have a day or so to hang out waiting for the website to work), you're going to have a lot less money for partying, food, gas for your car, tuition, rent and other non-essentials. But hey, it's ObamaCare! Doncha wanna be young, hip and down with it?

You're quite correct in thinking that the Left considers its target market here pretty stupid as well, and they're relying on garbage like this to camouflage the carnage of thousands of people in Colorado and elsewhere losing their health insurance after the president lied and said they could keep it.

How Official Pentagon Training Manuals Promote Anti-White Racism

Todd Starnes over at FOX has discovered exactly what the military is teaching its equal opportunity officers:

A controversial 600-plus page manual used by the military to train its Equal Opportunity officers teaches that "healthy, white, heterosexual, Christian" men hold an unfair advantage over other races, and warns in great detail about a so-called "White Male Club."

“Simply put, a healthy, white, heterosexual, Christian male receives many unearned advantages of social privilege, whereas a black, homosexual, atheist female in poor health receives many unearned disadvantages of social privilege,” reads a statement in the manual created by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI).

The manual, which was obtained by Fox News, also instructs troops to “support the leadership of people of color. Do this consistently, but not uncritically,” the manual states.


DEOMI instructors are also responsible for labeling evangelical Christians, Catholics and a number of high-profile Christian ministries as extremist hate groups, something I wrote about here previously. A lot of this garbage comes courtesy of the far left extremist Southern Poverty Law Center.

What's in the manuals (FOX got their hands on one thanks to a DEOMI instructor who was appalled at what he was required to teach) is astounding:

“Whites are the empowered group,” the manual declares. “White males represent the haves as compared to the have-nots.”

The military document advises personnel to “assume racism is everywhere, every day” and “notice code words for race.” They are also instructed to “understand and learn from the history of whiteness and racism.”

“Assume racism is everywhere, everyday,” read a statement in a section titled, ‘How to be a strong 'white ally.'"

“One of the privileges of being white is not having to see or deal with racism all the time,” the manual states. “We have to learn to see the effect that racism has.”

On page 181 of the manual, the military points out that status and wealth are typically passed from generation to generation and “represent classic examples of the unearned advantages of social privilege.”

“As such, the unfair economic advantages and disadvantages created long ago by institutions for whites, males, Christians, etc. still affect socioeconomic privilege today,” the manual states.

The guide also points out that whites are over-represented and blacks are underrepresented in positive news stories, that middle class blacks live in poorer neighborhoods than middle class whites and that even though there are more white criminals than any other race, the news coverage of black criminals is about equal to the news coverage of white criminals.

The military manual goes into great detail about a so-called “White Male Club.”

“In spite of slave insurrections, civil war, the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments, the women’s suffrage movement leading to the 19th amendment, the civil rights movement, urban rebellions and the contemporary feminist movement, the club persists,” the document states.

DEOMI states that “full access to the resources of the club still escape the vision of equitable distribution.”

The military also implies that white Americans may be in denial about racism.

In a section titled, “Rationalizations for Retaining Privilege and Avoiding Responsibilities,” the military lays out excuses white people use.

“Today some white people may use the tactic of denial when they say, ‘It’s a level playing field; this is a land of equal opportunity,’” the manual reads. “Some white people may be counterattacking today by saying political correctness rules the universities or they want special status.”

DEOMI points out that if “white people are unable to maintain that the atrocities are all in the past, they may switch to tactics to make a current situation seem isolated.”

They said some of the ways whites may claim to be victims include saying things like, “I have it just as bad as anyone else,” “They’re taking away our jobs,” or “White people are under attack.”
The military concludes the section by urging students to “understand and learn from the history of whiteness and racism” and “support the leadership of people of color.”


What this is about is President Obama's efforts to fundamentally transform America by concentrating on one institution at a time. This is his effort to turn the military...purging it of commanders,enlisted men and officers who vote 'wrong' and might not follow his agenda and replacing them with more pliable and servile troops..while indoctrinating as many of the others as possible.

I dislike using this comparison, but need I point out that über-progressive Adolf Hitler did exactly the same thing once he took power?

Jews are the "most evil among creations, barbaric monkeys, wretched pigs"



Just a little snippet of children's programming from state run Palestinian TV, Israel's 'Peace Partners' :

PA TV reporter: "Let's meet these girls who want to recite a short poem."

Girl 1: “I do not fear the rifle because your throngs are in delusion and ignorant herds.
Jerusalem is my land, Jerusalem is my honor
Jerusalem is my days and my wildest dreams.
Oh, you who murdered Allah’s pious prophets (i.e., Jews in Islamic tradition)
Oh, you who were brought up on spilling blood
You have been condemned to humiliation and hardship.
Oh Sons of Zion, oh most evil among creations
Oh barbaric monkeys, wretched pigs."


Girl 2: "Jerusalem is not your den
Jerusalem opposes your throngs
Jerusalem vomits from within it your impurity
Because Jerusalem, you impure ones, is pious, immaculate
And Jerusalem, you who are filth, is clean and pure.
I do not fear barbarity.
As long as my heart is my Quran and my city
As long as I have my arm and my stones
As long as I am free and do not barter my cause
I will not fear your throngs
I will not fear the rifle.”


Sweet, no?

 According to watchdog  Palestiniian Media Watch (PMW), the broadcast went out on July 3, and the two children were sisters.

I don't blame these children. I doubt they have a clue as to what they're really saying, and are just reciting a script for the thrill on being on TV, 'attagirls' from the adults and maybe some chocolate or something. But you know what? The adults know exactly what they're doing, and so do the sort of humans ( and I use that term loosely) who run Fatah and the Palestinian Authority.

They're indoctrinating the next generation in dehumanizing Jews and legitimizing terrorism and genocide. Do you or any other rational human being expect these people to actually keep any peace agreement they make with Jews, with Israel? Why would they?

This indoctrination in hatred, this refusal to live with Jews in peace and equality is what killed the so-called peace process - not Jerusalem, not 'occupation', not Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria. It started with Arafat and has continued to the present day.

And yet the US and the EU continue to fund this evil and to advocate for  it.

The word 'Palestine' comes from a Roman corruption of the word 'Philistine', and that name was deliberately chosen by the Romans to mock the Jews after Israel and Judea were conquered.

Like other peoples in this part of the world, the Philistines made a fetish out of child sacrifice, burning thousands of their children on the altars of their god Dagon.

The majority of Arabs who proudly identify themselves as 'Palestinians' are worthy inheritors of this tradition.

By their hatred of Jews and denial of their humanity, they deny their own. And plant  the seeds for their own destruction, just as the Philistines did.

US Army Reserve Now Teaching That Extremists Include KKK, Al Qaeda, Jews, Catholics, Evangelicals

 RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM: These groups were all lumped together in a slideshow for US Army Reserve recruits

This would be funny if it was an Onion story - but it isn't.

According to U.S. Army training materials, Catholics, Orthodox Jews, Evangelicals, Mormons are lumped together as 'religious extremists' with the likes of al-Qaeda, the KKK, and Hamas.

Yes, those rabbis are certainly known for their fiendish suicide bombings..and let's not even talk about those violent Mormons or nuns with guns...

 

Odd that both Hezbollah and Shi'te Muslims were left off the list, (although Hezbollah's flag is there) but Sunni Islam was included. So was 'Islamophobia' Obviously Hezbollah aren't considered 'extremists'.

The presentation also warns that members of the military are prohibited from taking leadership roles in any organization the Pentagon considers 'extremist,' or from distributing the organization's literature, whether on or off a military installation. So any of you whom are committed Catholics sharing Papal encyclicals, church deacons sharing sermons or tracts or Jews sharing Torah commentaries or tefilim with your co-religionists are hereby warned that your extremist views WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.

And it gets better:

Citing a Southern Poverty Law Center report as evidence that extremism is on the rise, the Army Reserve presentation blames 'the superheated fears generated by economic dislocation, a proliferation of demonizing conspiracy theories,the changing racial make-up of America and the prospect of 4 more years under a black president who many on the far right view as an enemy to their country.'

Here's another slide from this presentation:

 Presenters were instructed to tell recruits that soldiers may not take leadership positions in any group the military considers 'extremist'

Presenters received orders to read the above slide in its entirety. Essentially, you'd better not be a member of any of these 'extremist groups' in any capacity if you're in today's Army.

What happened here is pretty obvious, although I doubt the Army brass has the stones to admit it. It's simply a reality that the vast majority of violent terrorism is committed by groups affiliated with Islam. And when the original list was made, political correctness kicked in because you know, we can't have that.CAIR might complain!

So they told the men charged with making the slide show to find groups, any groups affiliated with other faiths. And let's make sure we include 'Islamophobia'. The results would be hilarious if they weren't being taken seriously.

For instance, the two Jewish 'terrorist' groups listed, Kach and the Jewish Defense league have been dormant for years with the leaders dead or in prison.And to list Catholics instead of, say, the IRA is an absolute hoot.

I'm surprised the Amish didn't make the cut. Talk about extreme...

Jokes aside, this is a good indication of how our military is being destroyed from within. Rather than focusing on defending the country, they're forced to waste time and energy proselytizing for an extremist cult  - political correctness.

A 15-Year -Old Conservative Deals With Bullying From Public School Teachers

 https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQfW9zdTpvTMkqWdwKzUrLMvgtFMOYl2YAbBvshD9lmlr9DNl5cpxYUbj-WczWTZl_PhualKoWYZOxRYSZTCeWZ-boglRUZFpm-zEwkejTkM2no7oLtBJMDEcAyHlpm2Zvz-5x/s1600/TeacherBully.jpg

Benji Backer is a politically active fifteen-year-old in Wisconsin. Here he speaks in his own words on the kind of indoctrination he's getting in the public schools:


As a 15 year old, I never imagined my activism in politics would translate into controversy for me at school.

My name is Benji Backer and I attend a public high school in Appleton, Wisconsin. I have always supported the public school system and plan to do so for the rest of my life. Many Americans who stand up for the public school system and the unions believe there is no attempt to sway opinion or that students with opposing beliefs are singled out. Unfortunately, experiences I have had with harassment and bullying prove that wrong. This is a timeline of the most extreme cases of harassment and indoctrination I have had in the three different public schools I have attended over the last three years.

I am currently in my freshman year of high school and the incidents are happening more frequently and I believe are more severe. As you can imagine, the ongoing pressure and bullying has been disturbing to me, my friends and my family.

Just before the 2010 Midterm election, I was on the front page of the local newspaper for my political volunteer work and my teachers noticed. One of my seven teachers made it very clear that she dissaproved of my civic engagement. In a period of two months, my Geography teacher frequently would take me aside after school for a few minutes and tell me how stupid, wrong and misguided I was for being Republican. The harassment with this specific teacher got so bad, I had to switch schools halfway through the year. At this time I was only 12 years old. To my knowledge, this teacher was not disciplined at all for her actions.

Two months after I switched to my new school, Scott Walker passed the controversial Budget Repair Bill. Most of the teachers at my new school were more than upset. A couple of my teachers wore red every day while crying, protesting and providing a one-sided perspective on the reforms and making it clear to us just how bad they believed Scott Walker was. One teacher even said she wouldn’t be able to have another child because Scott Walker was cutting so much money from her pay.

A few months later, I expected things to die down and be over with; it didn’t. Almost four months after Walker’s budget was passed, I walked into choir to find a substitute teacher showing us a 5 minute video about how great unions were and then she talked for an additional 10 minutes about how bad she believed Scott Walker to be. At the end of the class, I stood up, defended the governor and told her how inappropriate her behavior was. I was told she didn’t do that to another class for the rest of the day.

During my 8th grade year I received more attention for my political activity. I had become known in the community because of newspaper, radio and TV interviews and was aware that this would possibly make me a target. Not only was I a volunteer for Governor Walker, but I was a very vocal supporter of him as well. While there were some minor instances of teachers complaining about Walker and a few mentions of my media appearances and such, the rhetoric seemed to be dying down.

It was a short-lived reprieve. Things have deteriorated again this year, my freshman year. I came into the year with the knowledge that some teachers would already view me negatively because of my political views and I was correct.

Right after Scott Walker won the recall election, I started helping out candidates for November. I was named Young Americans for Mitt Romney Co-Chair in Wisconsin and once again, my teachers took notice; my English teacher in particular. In one of the first weeks of school, he had us write about an article we had read for homework. The article was about political campaigns “mining” into the personal lives of the American people. He asked, “other than Facebook and phone calls, how do campaigns mine into personal lives?” I raised my hand and replied: “well, you can check who signed the recall.” Immediately after, he said “I signed that!” That was the trigger to the last 40 minutes of class. He spent the remainder of that period lecturing us about how much he hated Scott Walker and explained all the reasons why. He said, “most small business owners and workers take off Fridays and summers”. According to him, small business owners go golfing every Friday. He also said many businessmen work fewer hours than teachers. He explained how his pay was too low to support his family. He told the class his pay was so bad he had to paint houses in the summers. During this discussion, he was swearing and saying how wrong it was for anyone to support Walker. Students were telling him to stop, and he wouldn’t.

I decided I would not argue with him. Past experiences had shown me that arguing with someone like him would only make things worse and inflame the situation. Since no one was debating him, these students were being presented a very biased view and placed in a very uncomfortable situation. By the end of class, some students had a completely negative view of Scott Walker.

A couple of days later, he took me into the hall and apologized. He said he had felt bad about it all weekend. He then gave me a book to read about Abraham Lincoln. He told me that “good politicians read a lot.” Then he said, “I don’t think Scott Walker likes to read.” The indoctrination and conversations with the class dropped off for a while after this incident, but in mid-October, it started up again. On a regular basis, he would talk about politics in front of the class or in private with me.

The harassment got particularly bad one day in late October, about a week after I was featured in USA Today for my involvement in the upcoming November election. Again, this video and article was sent throughout the school and was even played in several classes. The same English teacher who had lectured to almost 30 students about a month earlier took me aside during class again. He started talking about Mitt Romney and Scott Walker and his views on them. He reiterated how much harder he worked compared to my dad, a small business owner, which he had no knowledge of. He went on to ask how much my parents made because he wanted to compare it to his salary.

Later, I looked up this teacher’s salary. He had been making over $100,000 with benefits for the 2010-11 school year, the same year Walker's reform bill passed. For a few more days, he talked to me in class about his feelings about Walker and Romney. I decided to tell my parents about the two incidents. My parents thought it was very inappropriate and decided we needed to talk to the principal about it. The principal at my school was very upset with the situation. He was disappointed in my English teacher and he told me I needed to talk to my teacher one on one. After I talked to the teacher, my principal said he would meet up with him to follow up. When I went during my lunch hour to talk to my teacher, he apologized and took ownership for everything. Later during the apology, he started to talk about Walker again and how much he hated him. He just couldn’t stop. At the end of the conversation, my teacher asked “you know how you went down to the principal’s office?” I said yes, and he said “I don’t give a sh*t.” I asked why, and he went on to explain that he was friends with the principal so it didn’t matter to him and he wouldn’t get in trouble because of their friendship.
[...]

In my Health class, also this year, our very first homework assignment included writing down four activities you do as a person currently and four things you want to do in the future. We were also assigned to present in front of the class. In one of my four boxes, I wrote down that I was a conservative speaker. When I presented in front of the class, he asked if I supported the Tea Party. I said yes. He rolled his eyes and told me believing in the organization was “weird." He also told me he knew nothing about the Tea Party. This teacher then told me to explain, in front of the class why I supported the Tea Party, so I did. When I left the class, I thought about what had happened. Why was I being called “weird?” Why was I being questioned so much? The simple truth reveals that some teachers want to obstruct and block my personal views from looking valid. If a teacher asked why someone was homosexual, Atheist or Muslim and called what they believed “weird”, there would be serious consequences. I decided not to report this to the principal because I realized it wouldn’t help. I had experienced the fallout from reporting prior instances and I didn't want a repeat situation.

The latest incident involved another substitute teacher in my civics (government) class. Every day we watch a ten minute show called CNN Student News. The substitute asked us to recap the show and discuss it in class. The first part of the show had to do with gun control. Instead of having us discuss the topics as she said she would, she decided to share her views. She talked almost twenty minutes. In those twenty minutes, she said the recently released picture of Obama shooting a gun was forced out by the conservative and far-right members. She explained how she believed Obama’s birth certificate was forced out, therefore this was too. For about five minutes, she called all Republicans racist. According to her, she had never seen such discrimination against a president and President Obama has been the most ill-treated president in the history of the United States, all because the Republicans don't want a black man in the White House.

Obama Caught In Huge Whopper - Says Perry,Gingrich, Romney Would Cut All Aid to Israel

Obama

"Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, and Newt Gingrich all say they would cut foreign aid to Israel — and every other country — to zero."

"Stand against ‘zeroing out’ aid to Israel," the web page says. "Republican candidates for president Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, and Newt Gingrich all say they would cut foreign aid to Israel — and every other country — to zero. Stand up to this extreme isolationism and join the call to reject the Romney-Perry-Gingrich plan."

It says a great deal about President Obama's contempt for his fellow citizens that he'd even try getting away with this one.

The campaign cites as evidence a series of statements made at a Nov. 12, 2011, debate among the Republican presidential candidates moderated by CBS News’ Scott Pelley and National Journal’s Major Garrett.

What the candidates in question actually said is so far away from what the Obama campaign says they did beggars the imagination.

Rick Perry responded to a question by Pelly about foreign aid to Pakistan by saying this:

"Listen, I think we're having an interesting conversation here, but the deeper one (is about) foreign aid. And we need a president of the United States working with a Congress that sends a clear message to every country. It doesn't make any difference whether it's Pakistan or whether it's Afghanistan or whether it's India.

"The foreign aid budget in my administration for every country is going to start at zero dollars. Zero dollars. And then we'll have a conversation. Then we'll have a conversation in this country about whether or not a penny of our taxpayer dollar needs to go into those countries. And Pakistan is clearly sending us messages, Mitt. It's clearly sending us messages that they -- they don't deserve our foreign aid that we're getting, because they're not being honest with us. American soldiers' lives are being put at jeopardy because of that country. … It's time for us as a country to say no to foreign aid to countries that don't support the United States of America."

Notice Perry says that foreign aid should be cut to "countries that don't support the United States of America." And notice that he specifically says that he'd start at zero dollars and then decide how much aid the US gives them, not that he'd 'zero it out' and eliminate it as the Obama website says.

Newt Gingrich was asked if he agreed with Perry by Major Garret and said this:

"What he said made absolutely perfect sense. … Consider the alternative. You're giving some country $7 billion a year .... or in the case of Egypt, $3 billion a year. So you start off every year and say, ‘Here's your $3 billion, now I'll start thinking’? You ought to start off at zero and say, ‘Explain to me why I should give you a penny.’...

"The Pakistanis hid Bin Laden for at least six years in a military city within a mile of their national defense university. And then they got mad at the people who turned him over to us? And we think those are the acts of allies? I think that's a pretty good idea to start at zero and sometimes stay there."


Mitt Romney later in the debate expressed the same views later talking about Pakistan: "One of the things we have to do with our foreign aid commitments, the ongoing foreign aid commitments -- I agree with Gov. Perry. You start everything at zero."

A sensible position, actually that has nothing to do with 'cutting foreign aid to Israel to zero'.

And guess what...when asked later specifically about aid to Israel, every one of the three GOP candidates made it quite clear where they stood.

Perry said during the debate, "Obviously, Israel is a special ally. And my bet is that we would be funding them at some substantial level."

After the debate a Perry aide e-mailed POLITICO columnist Ben Smith to say, "Perry believes Israel's an extraordinary friend and our greatest ally. … Under Rick Perry, Israel will set the bar for judging foreign aid to any country. Perry's Start at Zero is exactly the right policy -- no country stands to benefit more than Israel from merit-based foreign aid."

Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, both of whom have taken consistently pro-Israel positions during the campaign made statements reiterating both their commitment to Israel as a valued ally and to continued military aid to Israel.

In fact, in Newt Gingrich's case, he cited a 2007 memorandum of understanding between Israel and the Bush Administration formalizing a 10-year commitment for U.S. military aid to Israel.

"We have a 10-year commitment that we have to live out," Gingrich said. "So I think because we’ve made this long-term commitment, you wouldn’t be able to go back to zero."

So the Prevaricator-in-chief is just flat out lying...again.

I'd love to see one of the candidates respond by mentioning that it was the Obama Administration that instituted what amounted to a de facto arms embargo on arms sales to Israel for eight months when President Obama first took office, and later threatened an aid cutoff in defiance of that 2007 MOU.

You'll also notice that th eObama website makes no mention of the one GOP candidate who does want to end all aid to Israel specifically and even introduced an amendment in Congress last February to that effect - Ron Paul.

But by now, I think we know why.

Ihave to admit I am disappointed by President Obama . I'm looking forward to more inventive lies and misstatements, not stupid ones like this. it belittles us both.

Pam Geller Suing The NY MTA

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjbV6qg-KqUoEwvQZtxAkoOXSNQ6dzXSwynqJT7tPq5ONjjHqIOrAgoyhdwY1MAvC-b95VKyWwQ5D9D3OaMapbn7ZOI7QyhNAWXLbBeGbFXAuEz1BkBLyXZrSPKyup-OcjegfK/s400/Pam+Geller%2527s+subway+ad.png

Atlas Shrug's Pam Geller is suing the New York Metropolitan Transit Authority for refusing to run the above ad on its subways and buses.

According to an MTA spokesman, the agency “does not approve or disapprove of issue-oriented advertisements based on the viewpoint being expressed,” and that it recently approved other ads that focused on the Middle East. “However, our advertising standards do prohibit language that demeans an individual or group.”

Apparently the word 'savage' was the sticking point.

However, the MTA was perfectly happy to run this ad,which calls the IDF savages by implication:

Aw,isn't that cute? I wonder if the good folks over at the MTA ever heard of Samir Kuntar, an honorary 'Palestinian citizen' who was feted by Mahmoud Abbas himself. Or that Abbas referred to the many child murderers held in Israeli prisons as 'heroes of freedom' and insists they all have to be freed in any peace deal...and that includes the Tanzim sniper who shot little 10-month-old Shalhevat Pas in her stroller.

Maybe if Pam used this picture, it would have made her point a bit more graphically:

That was taken after the non-savages lynched two IDF reservists who wandered across the border accidentally during what was supposed to be peacetime and were literally torn apart by a mob while the 'Palestinian' security forces stood and watched...and participated. They were convicted in an Israeli court of course...the 'Palestinians have never put anyone in jail for murdering Jews.

( sorry about the LGF link...that was back when Chuckles was still sane)

Robert Muise of the Thomas More Law Center and ace lawyer David Yerushalmi are involved, so this isn't frivolous and has major implications for the way jihad and its adherents are portrayed in the future.

Yaser Koach, Pam!
