Occupy the shit out of everything!

I am still trying to get my head around that social phenomenon called OWS. It is a thankless business, but I don't want just to call them useless no good rabble rousers and turn my back. So I have perused a nice collection of pictures from the May 1 NYC gathering of OWS, courtesy of Buzzfeed.

What can I say - the question of what OWS is remains unanswered - at least in a civil language. Checking the various slogans displayed on various placards doesn't bring any clarity - just the opposite. From a mildly unattractive "Money Bunny" offering spanking services to bankers, via a dorky-looking Jesus with a suspiciously light cross to a lady that carries her end of a placard with prominently displayed bull's balls and a T-shirt that demands visiting rights for the wives of Miami 5 (does she know who they are, by the way, I wonder?)...

The more messages you look at, the more confusing the picture gets. The only coherent and (so far) the only consistent with OWS actions message is this one:


Oh well, what the heck...

By the way - re Cinco de Mayo

Or, rather, re Cinco:

Google, Persian Gulf and/or Arabian Gulf

The whole story.

The gist:

Iranians have been complaining that Google Maps now has no name on the body of water they call the Persian Gulf and is also known as the Arabian Gulf.
Google folks are really facing a conundrum.

I have an idea for a compromise: let's call it J... er... no, I better not.

Bin Laden - not buried at sea?

Judging by the new information at our disposal, the said stiff may not be were it was widely supposed to be, namely swimming free and unfettered with the fishes, whales and other ocean fauna.

According to documents released by Wikileaks, Bin Laden’s body may have been transported to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Maryland.
Which means that the unique and exclusively ours picture of the burial could have been slipped to us by a rival outfit.


After analysis of the news linked above and a few e-mails from our readers who hinted that the person being buried at sea in the picture could have been a dead duck*, we have decided to reconsider the question and to offer our apologies to the readers who may have been confused by that report and the picture.

Well, dominating the world is a cutthroat business and nobody is guaranteed from a slip here and there. Nevertheless our field men are second to none, and recently a new picture of the stiff was obtained. And here it is, again an exclusive - in its own freezer!


Well, we think Bethesda naval hospital is on the whole an environment superior to the bottom of the Indian Ocean. Much cleaner, to start with. And the current POTUS and all his successors could drop by for a visit anytime... not bad at all.

(*) Which comment we, of course, have taken as a figger of speech at the time...

Getting up to date with the Jewish Chronicle

There are a number of items from this week's Jewish Chronicle that I couldn't resist, so I thought I'd bore you all at once, rather than stretch out the agony over three different postings. After all, it's good for you to suffer, even if it isn't anywhere near Yom Kippur.

The first item comes complete with a rather charming(?) photo of George Galloway (peh, peh, peh), arms raised, looking as though he's appealing to some deity or other (the god of carnage, maybe?), and announces that "Pro-Palestinian activists Viva Palestina are to send a convoy of trucks through Syria to Gaza - despite protests and withdrawals from their own members"

You have to wonder how they think they're going to get from the Lebanon-Israel border (or the Jordan-Israel border, for that matter) to Gaza. Do they think that the Israelis are going to roll over for them? All the Israelis have to do is close the border crossing: not even a threat of violence involved. And if they persist in trying to cross…it's not a stretch of water which might (or might not) be disputed as to whether it's international waters or not.

At the end of the item, there's a further link, where it is noted that the supposedly "Gorgeous George" ("An MP who was expelled from the Labour Party…") is backing Ken Livingstone in the London Mayoral campaign. Birds of a feather…

Then we have this which surprised me, though I don't know why: Gerald Kaufman saving kashrut. He's never denied that he's Jewish or that he was (as the article notes) brought up in a kosher household, but given his stance on Israel… I must learn to separate the two out: even "as a Jew" folk may remain attach to the food practices of their youth, while becoming anti-Zionist with a vengeance. Still, who'd have thought it?

Finally, there's this item, which, unfortunately, speaks for itself: "The participation of an Israeli expert on conflict resolution at an NHS-sponsored event next week in Manchester was cancelled following pressure from local representatives of the UNISON trade union whose members were supposed to participate in the workshop." The fact that it's probably against the law on Race Relations is neither, sadly, here nor there. Although it should be of prime importance. The expert in question, Moti Cristal, nobly noted that "since the decision had been political, he was waiving his cancellation fee." Pity, he should have sued the pants off them - or rather the union - for discrimination under the relevant legislation. That would really have made the point, just as threats by UCU members (retaining Anthony Julius to represent them) to sue it if the union persisted with their boycott plans made the point there.

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.

US Post Office cleans some clogged pipes

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

Sofia Vergara naked uncensored pictures

are hardly suitable for this here blog, so you'll have to look for them elsewhere. But this, practically naked woodpecker is something else. So watch and relax before you start surfing like mad again.

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.

U...


(*) 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?
