Answering Mark Levine for David Horowitz

Professor Mark Levine (pronounced as "Leh-Vee-Neigh") issued a public challenge to David Horowitz. Using, as usual, the good services of his usual haunt - Al Jazeera. If interested, you can go and look at the challenge, which is a bit too verbose for a challenge (to my taste, that is). My interest in the whole is caused solely by the somewhat pathetic displeasure prof Levine (pronounced as "Leh-Vee-Neigh") expresses at not being included by Mr Horowitz in a list he apparently keeps*:

I was a little surprised that I was not part of your just published list of dangerous, Jew- (self-) hating, Nazi-loving supporters of Boycotts, Divestments and Sanctions against Israel. Maybe I'm not good - sorry, evil - enough to have made the A-list of Israel-bashers featured in your April 24 New York Times ad . But not even your full list, with 1,004 professors, journalists, artists, activists and organisations? Was there really no room for me, one of your original 101 most dangerous professors?

Not at all sure whether it's ethical to answer for David Horowitz, but what the heck: I have done some worse things in my life. So:

Not good enough.

(*) That list keeping - ain't there some better use for Mr Horowitz's time? Just asking.

At least it seems like that if you look at these two adjacent headlines (Miami Herald):

Johan Galtung - another cause for celebration at the Elders' place

Instead of going into dry and boring explanations  of the case, I've decided to quote some excerpts from an internal memo sent to I..., the Mind Control Dept. chief,  Elders' HQ from his immediate superior U....

Dear I...,

It is with a sense of great achievement, delight and general well-being that I address this memo to you. Under my helmsmanship, boundless wisdom and shining field guidance that... [partly omitted*], your department has achieved what was considered impossible under the previous management of our immortal [partly omitted]... You have taken this man:

Notice how likeable he is - every youngster would gladly have him for a grandfather. Or grandmother, if you want to reflect upon that colorful shirt... anyway, were was I? Yes, this likeable man who - and I prefer to quote here, from the abominable Ha'Aretz:

Professor Galtung, 82-years-old, is one of the founders of the discipline called “Peace Studies and Conflict Resolution,” as well as a founder of the international Peace Research Institute in Oslo. He is considered well-respected sociological researcher, has been awarded many prizes, and is the author of over a thousand articles and over a hundred books.

He is something, this professor, isn't he? And you have taken this man, whose name reverberates in the halls of many institutions of higher learning, this... [partly omitted for same reason] and in less than three months, using the last ... [technicalities omitted] of mind control, succeeded to turn him into a raving, drooling and dribbling psychopath! I will quote only a few of his new "beliefs":

• Claimed that a possible connection exists between the terrorist responsible for the massacre of children in Norway last summer, and the Mossad.
• Says that The Jews control U.S. media, and divert for the sake of Israel.
• Pointed out that one of the factors behind the anti-Semitic sentiment that led to Auschwitz was the fact that Jews held influential positions in German society.
• Recommended reading “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion”.
• Considers that Freemasons organization has Jewish origins.

There is more, but it is enough to show your triumph, for which I congratulate you again. Now, from a reputable peace merchant he turned into a revolting run-of-the-mill antisemitic conspiracy freak whose name will be never taken seriously again in the above mentioned scientific circles.

Good job, I..., and, as an expression of the Elders' gratitude, for the next Passover matzos you will be granted a vial of AB Rh Negative gentile baby's blood - a rare treatment for an Elders' member below grade... [omitted].

[Here some routine instructions and the list of next candidates for mind control rays are omitted]

Keep up the good work.

(*) It must be mentioned at this point that U... has recently returned from an arduous assignment of many years as a chief tyrant of a remote warmongering tribe that will remain unnamed.

Sexy Tanja, Kick Ass and al Qaeda plots in his undies

On May 16 last year, a 22-year-old Austrian named Maqsood Lodin was being questioned by police in Berlin. He had recently returned from Pakistan via Budapest, Hungary, and then traveled overland to Germany. His interrogators were surprised to find that hidden in his underpants were a digital storage device and memory cards.

More details.

But don't click on that clip anticipating fragments from Sexy Tanja or Kick Ass. You will be disappointed...

On Zionist cruelty to minors

I believe you all remember that old joke: How do you call a kid that killed, cooked and ate his parents? An orphan.

The joke is really beat to death and tattered in my mind, because it comes up every time I see news like this one:

On April 21 Israel border policemen saw two Palestinians about 17 years old alighting from a taxi at the Tapuach junction (south of Nablus), carrying a suspicious-looking bag. The policemen ordered them to halt but the two turned and ran. The youths, both residents of the Balata refugee camp near Nablus, were found to be carrying four IEDs, a gun and ammunition (Israel Border Police Spokesman, April 21, 2012).

The contents of the kids' bag are displayed, if you are curious for more details - in that link.

So how that joke is related to the story? Very simple. You see, the two will be put in what is called "administrative detention" till their trial, since releasing them on their own recognizance will mean never (or close to never) being able to see them again.

And, as sure as death and taxes, from that same moment the two wannabe terrorist martyrs will immediately become incarcerated children - according to human rights organizations' definition of a child. And the two will join other poor defenseless tikes in the statistics zealously kept by these organizations and somewhat (or even considerably, if you will) inflated by various Palestinian (dis)information sources.

And our enemies will be able to concoct texts like this one:

The Luciferian Zionists inside Apartheid Israel have MORE children in prison than any nation on earth.

No links for that one, google for yourself if interested.

And our Western friends will politely (but firmly) express their "concern" about them kids suffering from heavy-handed treatment - and you can imagine what they will say to each other when the microphones will be switched off...

And this is the way it goes...

P.S. An article that describes pro-Palestinian propaganda on the subject.

Octomom, Chapter 7 bankruptcy, miscellaneous

The news is somewhat interesting:

Nadya Suleman – known as Octomom – filed bankruptcy papers on Monday here in federal court. Suleman's debt could be as much as $1 million – 20 times more than her net worth, according to court documents. The mother of 14 has up to $50,000 in assets.

Ms Suleman sure knows how to run up a tab, but this is not the question. The question (and a dark foreboding of mine) relates to the ominous sentence she issued:

I have had to make some very difficult decisions this year, and filing Chapter 7 was one of them...

Chapter 7 being behind us, the mention of other decisions bothers me. How many this time, Nadya?

And a quote from another source on various Octomom's activities:

She earned $5,000 for promoting spaying and neutering for an animal rights group...

Makes one think, doesn't it?

Guardian ‘Style Guide’ - there is such an animal indeed!

Believe it or not: Guardianistas really have a... to use North Korean terminology, a shining all embracing dictionary that provides undying field guidance (please, Yitzchak, do correct this poor example as you see fit, and I shall use the correction as it is) to anyone who dares to submit his/her text to The Guardian. And it is even viewable by mere mortals.

CiF Watch folks have done a job of reviewing it.

Wazzamatter, Bibi/Ehud?

One ex-chief of Israel Security Agency, Yuval Diskin, joined the club of anti-Bibi/Barak speakers. Nothing new in our barely churning, but mostly stagnant political puddle. What he said is extensively quoted in this JP article, but could be roughly derived from this quote:

My main problem on this issue is that I don’t have faith in the current leadership of the State of Israel that has to lead us to an event as big as a war with Iran or a regional war. I might be saying very difficult things. I don’t believe in the prime minister or the defense minister. I really don’t believe in a leadership that makes decisions out of messianic feelings.

Now I am not going into rights or wrongs of his opinion on Iran, this is not the subject of that post. The interesting part of the story is the response, obviously partly inspired by the offices of the two gentlemen Diskin describes so uncharitably. In addition to the linked above set of responses, I have got an earful of them on the radio this morning, and some of them are really mindboggling.

At least two of the VIP interviewed on the subject stated that Mr Diskin, due to sensitivity of his previously held post, cannot comment on personal traits of his superiors.

Meaning that there is possibly a security breach in Diskin saying that he doesn't believe in Bibi and Ehud. Like in "disclosure of a state secret"? Hm...

I vividly recollect an old Soviet-times joke about a man who was sent to jail for shouting on the streets "Brezhnev is an idiot". The verdict (but of course) was... see above.

Now, if I had a shekel to invest for future profit, I really wouldn't let Bibi, Ehud or both hold it for me, such is my regard for their general integrity. But is it a state secret?

A boost to Zionist confidence

The unbelievable exchange between an Al Jazeera reporter (on the left) and a Lebanese pro-Syrian journo settles the issue of Zionist Entity and its neighbors. As long as our neighbors need us so much as a most hated target in the world, we can rest easy.

Watch how AJ reporter loses patience with Lebanese journalist when the latter tries to use the Palestinians to avoid talking about the Syrian massacres.

Dentist Anna Mackowiak pulls out all the teeth of her ex-BF Marek Olszewski

Details are all here, so I can add only one or two remarks:

• Scorned is scorned, and I really cannot understand that Marek fellow taking his dental issues to his ex.
• And why didn't he detect that he is going to be put to sleep?
• Probably Marek is just a cheapo and hoped for a discount.
• The paper says that "Mackowiak is being investigated for medical malpractice and abusing the trust of a patient". I don't know from malpractice, IMHO all dentistry... but it's another issue. Anyway, she didn't abuse the trust - the man is a cheapo and not a clever one, it looks like. He kinda asked for it.
• Still, I feel for him a bit, no matter what.

So, to distract myself and my readers, I offer a soothing picture of an insect:

If you can define it, please feel free to leave its moniker in the comments. Thanks.

Frozen beef reserves to be dynamited?

The news is somewhat disturbing:

Federal forest officials want visitors of a Colorado hot springs to be very careful about what's lurking inside a remote cabin nearby: Frozen cows. Rangers believe the cows wandered into the cabin near the popular Conundrum Hot Springs during a snowstorm but couldn't find their way out. Air Force Academy cadets found their frozen carcasses while snowshoeing in late March.

What, in your opinion, would be the first thought of a warm-blooded reader? Steaks, of course. But the Rangers think in other terms:

Rangers want the carcasses gone before they thaw. Removal options include explosives or burning down the cabin.

Blowing up tons of perfectly good beef? Not only it is a waste, but it will probably become a disaster on the scale of the famous and hilarious Oregon Whale Explosion:



Oh well...
