We should just go cave to cave and give them Bibles.
Then we should send in teachers so they learn to read.
Then we should send in union reps to show them how organized we are.
Then we should give them all free airline tickets and green cards.
Then we should teach them the proper use of explosives and firearms
Then we should try and limit their food stamps.
Then we can have some real fun.

Send them all to Detroit to "share the wealth" with Jimmy?

...Is the much speculated upon OCTOBER SURPRISE going to be in fact ....no surprise at all ? Is it possible that in this "game" of World Chess that " at the last moment" the Black Messiah will broker a nuclear "peace" agreement with Iran, Israel will be "forced" to wait until next year to attack Iran and that the emphasis will then be shifted to North Korea ?

Ta Live Well Die Well

... Yod ... did you that 1/3 of the Jewish Holocaust Survivors now living in Israel are "living" below the poverty line ? That is 50,000 old people who survived and went to Israel expecting a better existence. The "government" gives them nothing and most live on what they recieve or have recieved from Germany. One would think that this would be a tragic embarrassment especially since it has gone on virtually from the "Birth" of Israel.

I also see that the Israeli Navey once again broke International Law by boarding and taking over the SV Estelle 38 Nautical miles from Gaza in International Waters. At least they did not murder any of the activists like they did in 2010 on the Turkish Ship.

These ships are loaded with relief and humanitarian supplies as well as "Activists" from several countries including Israel. Cement Blocks not "terrorist weapons" ????

For six years now the UN has called for the blockade to be lifted several times citing it " a denial of basic human rights in contravention of International Law" ....Israel has turned Gaza into a Neo Concentration Camp. Israel stops International aid which is only Humanitarian constantly and at the same time will not allow the Palestinians to export anything ???

It seems the more I actually look into the situation, history and present activity then the more I dislike what I see ??? I realize that you have had "good" experiences there and I am certain that there are many very wonderful people there but there are also demonstrations by the Israeli people against their "government" , it's economic policies and treatment of Palestine.

The more I find out the more I believe my original suspicions regarding Netanyahu, zionism and it's involvement in the current Evil which now plagues mankind. I would like to hear your opinion regarding what I have related. By the way I like very much your "Humour Thread" ... very funny jokes and a brief respite from the reality of The Great Dark Storm.

That's just nuts, man. Again....you are getting your information from a recognized TERRORIST group, Hamas.

On top of that, you are using the United Nations as support for what they have claimed. Really?



You have not taken a good look at this boat going to Gaza. It's a propoganda ship designed to produce the exact response you just gave.

1. Gaza doesn't need aid. They need their "leaders" to distribute the aid they have already been given. There is no concentration camp, but the residents of Gaza are brutalized daily by Hamas. Ever heard of them? Do you know that name means "violence"?

2. There are already legal & safer channels to send goods to Gaza that were ignored on purpose for the propoganda you've swallowed hook, line, & sinker. Every nation of the world has a Customs Administration. What this boat is doing is called "smuggling". Why do you single out Israel as the only nation who doesn't have that right?

3. The people who died on the previous ship were armed and violently attacked soldiers. How stupid must one be to do that and not expect reprisal?

Valerie Jarret met with reps of the Ayotollah in early Oct to agree on a statement of "Negotiations to end the nuclear stand-off" one week before the election. Iran has no intention of doing anything, but it will sound like there is a chance to avoid war if we stick with Obama.

More false "hope & change" but he knows how to parlay that into winning an election as we have already seen.

There is no evidence that I can see,which indicates that Romney or Obama will engage in a war with Iran... I also reckon that Israel will send in a special ops team to take out key Iranian Assets. I believe the US will sit that one out.

...YOD ...I thank you for your Post.

What I have related is not nuts ... the ships were stopped, taken over and those on board in the firs instance cited were either shot and killed or deported. In the second instance they have been placed in "custody".

Scondly what I relate about Israel not taking care of it's own ... in particular the surviving holocaust victims ... is also fact and in no way "nuts". All this info and fact is available on every international news source (buried or not) ... I do not even know where to get this mythical "Hamas" information that you unfairly accuse me of. I do not bother with such, considering the source. Yes I know they are a "recognized" terrorist group ... the same as the many, many, many others the world over ... even in the USA.

Regarding the UN ... no I am not "using" them for anything ... in fact I dettest their hypocrisy ...I merely relate FACT regarding what they state in their "activities regarding Israel's failure to comply. It is a simple matter of public record.

If Gaza does not need aid why are people dying there from lack of care and medicines and proper foods ? Why are tunnels "smuggling" in not just foods, medicines, building materials but weapons as well ? Why can they not import without unlawful blockade ?

Yes I do agree with you as do many others ... this last ship was a "propaganda" ship ... openly declared so ... even by those on board ... in order to bring "World Attention" to the unfair, dangerous and unlawful situation that continues to exist ....Much like your Marches. There were many on the ship from many different countries ... some were on the previous ship where people were murdered. Perhaps this is why in part this was one of the reasons for the "propoganda ship" ?

I find it interesting that worldwide now the "governments" use "terrorist" or "Insurgent" to simply describe what others call "Rebels" or "Democracy and Freedom Fighters" ???? Those who protest tyranny are now considered as criminal by the real criminals ??? "Propaganda" is used in the same manner and can be applied in the same manners.

Anyone with a backbone, when pushed too far, for whatever reason ... will resort to violence ... so it is not a surprise when this is openly declared at times. There is never only one way to "look" at things ... There is the "Pro" ... "the "Con" ... the Truth. Sometimes two of these are close but where political filth and governments are involved ... NEVER.

My "response" Yod is to merely question in this case. I urge you to also apply what you state to me to yourself and your opinions ... giving the "exact response" ... "nuts" ... "propaganda" ...we are all equally victims of the p[olitical filth and their lies and actions ... some of us are more aware of this that is all. No one "leader", "government" or "country" is "right" in "everything" that it states and does ... almost never in fact.

Re the "safer" and "legal" channels ... are these possibly sim iliar to such found in other countries ...UN Food and Aid Programs ? Poisonous Innoculations ans such? Since when is it not legal for a country to export it's own goods and produce ? The ship was not "smuggling", they were making a point and it was done quite well I think.

The Rights of Israel ? Dictating, Occupying and Destroying ... to others ... how they should behave, what they should do and setting oneself up as a "Model" is to me very arrogant. I am not singling out Israel... it is doing a great job on it's own I feel. The country I do single out is the US ... I feel this thread shows this clearly enough. To claim being singled out when questioned about motive is simple paranoia. Israel has good reason be paranoid it seems.

Hamas was not bulldozing houses and destroying orchards and building settlements on other peoples lands were they ? I DO NOT CONDONE HAMAS NOR DO I CONDONE EVIL. Those that died on the ship ? Badly handled and completely uncalled for I believe. The entire affair is in question. Did the soldiers not attack the ship ? The mere fact it happened ... no proper documentation ... no proper international investigation ... videos etc censored and disappeared ... grossly conflicting accounts ... the usual fare that always happens when a "government" wishes to cover up the evil they have done.

Politicians are criminals, liars and evil now regardless of which country. Thank you for the link ... for me it clearly demonstrates what I state. You are to me an admirable person and I respect your opinions and consider them but I also reserve my right to have my own. If we ever are fortunate enough to sit around the same fire this all will make for excellent conversation.

We obviously disagree on some issues and opinions, but I for one will not let this impair our friendship. This World, this Age is falling apart ... discerning Evil and Truth is becoming easier. I belive this to be a good thing.

Ta Live Well Die Well

Let me start at the end

We obviously disagree on some issues and opinions, but I for one will not let this impair our friendship. This World, this Age is falling apart ... discerning Evil and Truth is becoming easier. I belive this to be a good thing.

It would get boring here quickly if we all agreed on everything. Whether we realize it or not, we are drawn to those who challenge us the most. I like you, and we were probably the same person before January 1990.

It is as much a sin to get offended as it is to cause it, imo.




Now, regarding the rest of that "stuff", Joe Biden, it's just not true. Should I go through the whole thing line by line to show you why? Is that what you'd prefer?


I can sum it up for you though. It comes from HAMAS.



you really believe that "stuff"?


.

...Yod ... I thank you for our Post. I agree that everyone agreeing would be rather boring, of course we need not worry about that especially here. Interesting statement ... same person ... Jan 1990. Am I to assume that as of that date you became somehow enlightened whilst I somehow remained groping about blind in the darkness for the next 22 years ? I assure you such has not been the case.

Referring to me as Joe Biden ? ... seems to exhibit an extreme lack of knowledge as to who I am ... or is it just a "resort" to name calling and "light" insult ? This puzzles me somewhat.

Summing it all up using your favorite terrorist group seems to be somewhat of a habit and not a very convincing or objective one at that. Once again ... Yes I believe yjat Israel stopped, forcefully and illegally boarded and took over the ships, killing and imprisoning those on board. ... I believe what I related to you about the UN. I can only retort using your own words "you really believe that stuff?"

It seems that for whatever reason and using whatever methods ... Israel is determined to eradicate Palestine and Palestinians and take over lands, Jerusalem and expand their influence by whatever means they can ... ignoring Laws when it suits them. Having been on the recieving end half a century ago this poses some interesting though confusing questions, does it not ?

Perhaps this is why the US and Israel are such excellent bedfellows ? I know not , I admit. I can merely observe ... I do see more problems being created than being solved ... everywhere actually and by everyone. I see Liars, theives. murderers and great evil being done ... everywhere. This is one of the reasons I respect and admire you. Nothing you or I will say will change anything however ... in my opinion. We agree to differ is the best outcome for us both I feel.

I am preparing myself, my household, my Wife and Relatives and Friends in the best manner I can with whatI have. Beyond that I continue to "create" and also to work upon my final projest ... hoping that I may see it's realization ... if not then I am content with at least my efforts as I know in your own way you are with yours.

One Lone organization can not shoulder all the blame .... as I have stated ... Israel is no more righteous, innocent ot evil than any of the others involved ... they are all in their own ways "dirty". It is the same with ourselves ... we must make our own peace and determine our our seperate path. Of course we can enjoy one another along the way at least occasionally.

The greatest real danger is Fukushima ... Nature and Man working together. The Shadows grow long now ... yet no "leader", no "government" no "election" seems to be addressing this greatest of all present dangers ??????? There is little time left. Any artificial man-made boundary, religion, government or "idea" will not stand against Nature, the Celestial Events coming and this Passing of Age ...in my humble opinion.

Ta Live Well Die Well

...Imagine ... a Dying World where the "elected" "leaders" are panicking because almost in the same instant the collective realization that who they thought they were, what they thought they were and the "position" they thought they had ... all suddenly is gone and in fact never existed at all. This combined with the Hatred and Head Taking of a dying species... their own ...it could be quite amusing in a rather horrific and tragic way.

The "hive" and this growing general "feeling" now exists and with the passing of each day, each night, becomes more widespread. Much more poignant than "thinking you are in Love" only to find out you were not ... only to discover that you were being "played" and were laughing stock for those "who knew". Or working for years, sacrificing your personal life for "the companie" only to find out that you are being replaced" early before you become a liability or a burden with a pension.

Stepping on ants when you need not, "feeling" the power ... imagining yourself as a hero, a god ... a success. Massing worthless fiat wealth and trodding on who ever "gets in the way" to do so. But then finding out that what you have is nothing of real value in this existence and those you have spurned remember in your desperation ... shunning you and looking upon you with disgust as you grope about in death throe.

We have no worries here though, do we not ? We are not as others for we are creative, we are artistic, we are loving and caring and "inspired" in our lives. What we mass is skill and admiration, our success knows no failure with death or calamity for we live a unique existence and do not covet that which others compete madly for. We are immune within our self, within our life, within our "works" ... our children.

So let us create and play and perform and sing and dance our own tunes whilst all about us others watch with confusion and sleep filled eyes, empty hearts and fleeing souls. We may like amplification but we need it not for the notes we make travel on and on without it. Undying and the songs we play and sing reflect what surrounds us and may mock, may cry, may remember. But we shall be as we are regardless of what may transpire. We shall not grope in the darkness for the life of music for we make the music.

No, that date is a reference of when I decided to seek the truth, no matter where it led, and adjust my life to it.

It was when I began studying the bible to prove it was wrong. Until you've got a good grasp of that, you simply don't know the history of the region which explains why there is constant warfare. Before then, I swallowed what I was being told just like you on this issue.

It was also where I started researching every report to see where the truth lay. Since that time, when I catch a media outlet in a lie I no longer trust what they say without verifying it. I've learned that the BBC is a good news source...until it reports on Israel. I've learned that Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal owns huge swaths of American media (including 22% of FOX) since the 1970s which is why we will never get a true report on the dangers of Islam in American media. I've learned that the State Department runs American foreign policy no matter who the President is, and they are beholden to Zbignew Brizenski & James Baker, both protege's of Bush Sr.

I meant no slight towards your integrity. Please forgive me if it came across that way.

Referring to me as Joe Biden ? ...

Sorry again...not impugning you but making reference to Biden saying "that's a bunch of stuff" during the VP debates to avoid saying the curse word referring to dung.

Summing it all up using your favorite terrorist group seems to be somewhat of a habit and not a very convincing or objective one at that. Once again ... Yes I believe yjat Israel stopped, forcefully and illegally boarded and took over the ships, killing and imprisoning those on board. ... I believe what I related to you about the UN. I can only retort using your own words "you really believe that stuff?"

And I have pointed out that your views about what happened that day come from Hamas. Not really credible if you're interested in the truth.

It seems that for whatever reason and using whatever methods ... Israel is determined to eradicate Palestine and Palestinians and take over lands, Jerusalem and expand their influence by whatever means they can ... ignoring Laws when it suits them. Having been on the recieving end half a century ago this poses some interesting though confusing questions, does it not ?

And I've shown you several times already how Israel integrates ALL PEOPLE (including Arabs) into their free society. The narrative you have adopted is a flat out LIE.

JEWS (not arabs) have maintained a presence in that land for over 3,000 years. In the 1700s, huge numbers of Jews were emigrating from Lithuania, Ukraine, Hungary, Poland, etc, to a barren land of swamps and deserts where practically NO ARABS lived. In the 1800s the hope of a homeland swept the world and Zionism (the hope of a place where they wouldn't be murdered for being jews) was born.

Jews BOUGHT that barren wasted land, at incredibly jacked-up rates from the Ottomans. They began turning deserts into gardens and hired thousands of arabs from neighboring countries to help them. That is when Arabs began living in Israel, not a second earlier (excluding a few Bedoin tribes)

Then England recognized this fact and issued the Balfour Declaration but the surrounding arab nations couldn't bear the thought of jews living in their midst and threatened war, so the English capitulated to their demands and made Trans-Jordon (now Jordan) open only for arabs, and a small sliver of Palestine open for jews and arabs, calling it Israel.

There is your 2-state solution but it never satisfied the arabs, because it allowed jewish people to live & breathe.

Jews have always lived in and owned that land, and are in fact the only people interested in caring for it. That evidence is clear for 2,000 freaking years, bro!? It amazes me how people swallow the islamic propoganda and their new narrative of history without examining the factual evidence. Most of your beliefs were invented by Yassir Arafat after the 1967 war. I challenge you to find any reference to "Palestinians" before that time. They have no culture, no language, no history before he invented them for political purposes.

In fact, most Palestinians before that time were JEWISH. Ariel Sharon is listed on his birth certificate as born in Palestine while Arafat is Tunisian.

I see Liars, theives. murderers and great evil being done ... everywhere. This is one of the reasons I respect and admire you. Nothing you or I will say will change anything however ... in my opinion. We agree to differ is the best outcome for us both I feel.

And I say you are projecting what you know about the nations onto Israel and it simply doesn't fit. They really are different in the world community which is the reason why they are hated so much.

They remind us all that there is a God.

here is another typical day in world news reporting.

You seem to have been told one side of the story of a propoganda boat....but did you hear this reported anywhere?



================================================
Palestinian terrorists fired 67 rockets and mortar shells into southern Israel since Wednesday morning, injuring five and sending local residents fleeing for cover. IAF strikes targeting Palestinian rocket-launching squads killed four Hamas operatives but did little to stem the flow of rockets.

Hamas's armed wing, the Al-Qassam brigades, took responsibility Wednesday for both a barrage of rockets unleashed against Israel since Tuesday night and the bomb that critically injured an IDF officer along the Gaza border on Tuesday. The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) took responsibility for the Gaza border bomb.

In a statement posted on its website, Hamas said it was responsible for rockets, which it said were a response to IDF air strikes from 7:00 to 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday. It also said that on Tuesday it "detonated a roadside bomb near Israeli infantry soldiers east of Khanyounis city."

Of the projectiles fired by the terrorists, 22 landed in the Eshkol region while 21 landed in the Lachish region, according to the Israel Police. An additional 10 rockets landed in the South on Wednesday morning. The Iron Dome intercepted seven Grad rockets, according to the IDF. The barrage followed 10 rockets fired on Tuesday evening, making a total of 77. Five homes were damaged, according to Israel Radio.

Of the five injured, three were foreign workers, two of whom suffered critical injuries and were evacuated via helicopter to Soroka Medical Center. The others were either lightly injured or being treated for shock, according to Israel Radio.

IDF Home Front command instructed residents living within 10 km of Gaza to remain indoors and take shelter.

Air raid sirens went off during the attacks and local residents fled for cover. Southern municipalities canceled schools amid the ongoing escalation. Police have heightened patrols around Gaza in the south, including bomb sappers to deal with the heightened threat.

The IAF carried out an air strike around 7 a.m. Wednesday morning following three operations overnight, each striking rocket-launching cells in the northern and southern Gaza Strip. Hamas said that four of its operatives were killed in the strikes, and another three injured. The IDF also launched tank fire at targets in southern Gaza on Wednesday morning.
================================================







Did you get that? SIXTY-SEVEN ROCKETS TODAY fired into civilian areas, injuring foreigners. Can you imagine what would happen if Mexico shot 67 rockets into Arizona today?

Now, for Pete's sake, GAZA was given autonomy in 2005 from Israel. They have gotten what they asked for, land.

They didn't want it, and it was never negotiated. Israel unilaterally gave them their own "nation", not to mention Israeli settlements that produced millions of dollars in a local economy that the Gazans would receive without any renumeration or cost.

What did the gazans do? They burned down farms, greenhouses, and the best chance they had of improving their economy. Bro...they DON'T WANT FREEDOM for arabs-who-call-themselves-Palestinians! They want to control and manipulate like every other oppressive arab regime does.

Here is what you need to know about middle eastern tribes: EVERYONE is trying to play the victim. They all want to out-victim everyone else.

One thing I've learned from intense study of the Holocaust is that dictators always use the same method for controlling people: victimization.

Once they can convince a person that they are a victim of someone else, they can then make that person a perpetrator for a wicked agenda AND take their focus off the real problem, which is the dictator casting aspersion. The proverb is true: "He who angers you, controls you"

Arab leaders have used Israel as a scapegoat to hide their own failure. They get their citizens all worked up about Israel/Jews in order to take the focus off of themselves. You are parroting their propaganda.

It wouldn't take much research to find out you've been lied to, bro. What is stopping you?

I'm angry.

You see, as most Americans were waking up this morning, and those in Europe and elsewhere around the world were going about their daily routines, here in Israel -- over one million people were running for cover from a hail of rockets being rained down by Palestinian terrorists in Gaza. In the space of 24 hours, since Tuesday evening, 80 rockets have been fired on southern Israel. That's more than three rockets per hour. By the time I finish this article, odds are that count will have risen to 85 rockets.

Just to put things in context: one million Israelis is roughly 13 per cent of the population. Thirteen per cent of the U.S. population equates to about 40 million people.

A dozen Israelis have already been injured, with several of them seriously. The only reason more have not been hurt is because Israel has invested millions of dollars in bomb shelters and the Iron Dome defense system, while Hamas has invested millions of dollars in foreign aid in more rockets.

But here is why I'm angry.

I'm angry that in 2012, over 600 rockets have already been fired from Gaza with no end in sight. I'm angry that the world only notices when Israel undertakes its (sovereign) right to defend its citizens. Can you imagine if even one rocket was fired on Washington, London, Paris or Moscow? No nation on earth can, or should, tolerate such attacks on its people.

I'm angry that while the United Nations never hesitates to call a 'special emergency session' on the 'Question of Palestine' or pass the umpteenth resolution blindly condemning Israel, that I am still waiting for a session on the 'Question of Israel' and Palestinian terror. In fact, 24 hours after the rocket attacks started, I am still waiting for even one syllable of condemnation from the UN Security Council, the UN General Assembly or Navi Pillay, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.

I'm angry that Ban Ki-Moon, the UN Secretary-General, could not find a moment to condemn the Palestinian rockets, but did find time to laugh and dance with South Korean rapper Psy from the popular dance craze Gangnam Style.

I'm angry that while the EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton slammed Israel last week over the building of several hundred apartments (in an area that will arguably remain part of Israel anyway), that I am still waiting for her to slam the Palestinians for firing 80 rockets in one day.

I'm angry that there are those who continue to call for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against the Jewish State, but are silent in the face of Palestinian terror.

I'm angry that ships and flotillas continue to set sail for Gaza to show 'solidarity' with the Palestinians, but where is their solidarity with the people of southern Israel?

I'm angry that while human rights organizations like Amnesty, Human Rights Watch, Oxfam and others do not waste a single opportunity to condemn Israel for human rights violations against the Palestinians, the human rights of Israelis are seemingly not important enough for them. Is Jewish blood really that cheap?
I'm angry that mainstream newspapers like the New York Times, lead their stories about the rocket attacks with such headlines as "Four Palestinian Militants Killed in Israeli Airstrikes," and not "Palestinian Terrorists Rain Down Over 80 Rockets against one million Israelis."

I'm angry that so many people are blind to the fact that Iran, which has called for Israel to be wiped off the map and now seeks to obtain nuclear weapons, is the primary funder and supplier of arms to Hamas. I'm angry at the fact that all civilians in southern Israel today were instructed not to send their kids to school and stay in bomb shelters. What sort of inhumane way is that for children to live?

I'm angry when people continue to say that 'settlements' are the main impediment to peace, and not Hamas, a terrorist group which does not recognize Israel's right to exist and seeks its destruction. I'm angry when I see pictures like this, of a home in southern Israel hit by a rocket from Gaza today, yet have the audacity to say "ah, but they're just like toys; what damage can they do?"

I'm angry that there is someone out there who does not know me and has never met me, yet still wants to kill me -- for no other reason than being Israeli.

I'm angry when I hear residents in southern Israel say "we just lie on top of our children and try to protect them with our bodies" or that "we're living on borrowed time" -- yet the world seems oblivious to their desperate cries for help.

No, I am not angry. I am outraged.

Survey: Most Israeli Jews would support apartheid regime in Israel

"Most of the Jewish public in Israel supports the establishment of an apartheid regime in Israel if it formally annexes the West Bank.

A majority also explicitly favors discrimination against the state's Arab citizens, a survey shows."

http://www.haaretz.com/news/national/su ... m-1.471644

That's baloney.


If Israelis wanted apartheid right now, there is nothing stopping them.
