Left Attacks Olmert Over Friedmann

Legacy 2008 · By Steve Plaut

Many people in Israel are asking why the leftist establishment is now suddenly going after Olmert with its subservient Attorney General’s office and its hegemony over the media. After all, for years the Left’s stooges were content to sit back and turn a blind eye to Olmert’s personal corruption because he was carrying out the Left’s agenda.

The Attorney General and media in Israel only uncover “sleaze” and dirt and corruption in politicians whose politics they dislike. That is why they just can’t ever seem to take notice of all the personal corruption of Ehud Barak and Amram Mitzna. (And we all recall the whitewashing of Ezer Weizmann!) But let Bibi and his wife remove some trinkets and ashtrays without permission from the PM’s residence and the media have a field day! Or let Aryeh Deri fail to provide documented explanations for all of $40,000 out of his funds used to purchase his home….

So why the sudden determination to drive Olmert from office? It is obviously not a sudden squeamishness about bribery on the part of the stooges of the Left.

One explanation being whispered about Israel, and one I find highly plausible, is that the Left and its captive institutions are upset at Daniel Friedmann, Olmert’s Minister of Justice, and his determination to end judicial tyranny in Israel. The Left is in favor of judicial tyranny because it allows it to impose its political agenda on Israel through the courts without the inconvenience of actually having to win elections. The Left has placed Friedmann in its sites and is willing to topple Olmert to get what it wants.

John Bolton: Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran! Preemptively!

Legacy 2008 · By Mordecai 

6 views  Comment  Share/Save

The problem with a preemptive strike is that, if successful, it eliminates the reason for launching it and the future unfolds just as if the danger never existed. This is a particularly difficult dilemma for the leader of a democratic state. Political rivals, inevitably, will blame enemy counter-attacks and economic upheaval on the leader, while questioning the severity and immediacy of the threat. Costs and casualties of war are likely to turn public opinion against the leader.

Of course, pre-emptive strikes were not a problem for the early Romans or the British of the 18th century. Strong nations, with an educational system that produced an informed patriotic citizenry, had no compunctions about defeating all enemies, weak or powerful, by whatever means necessary.

Historically, strong peoples have imposed their will on the weak. There is no better example of this phenomenon than 7th century Arabs. Early Muslims forged their young men into warriors for Allah – Jihadis – certain of the superiority of their civilization and willing to kill and die for their Faith. They conquered and assimilated everything in their path until they were stopped by more determined Europeans.

As an aside, Muslims today have the same powerful educational system that produced the early Jihadis. Oil wealth and unlimited manpower have made Arabia a player on the world scene. Add a powerful Islamist movement and an ideological message that touches the hearts of the believers and you may understand the magnitude of the threat.

Fox Gains on CNN’s Naked Quest

Legacy 2008 · By Steve Plaut

One of the best reasons to switch to FOX News is CNN’s Richard Quest. A know-it-all “business” journalist, who could not pass a pop quiz in any economics course I have ever taught. An unctuous mimic of Uriah Heep, he is an insult to the intelligence of CNN viewers, someone who reminds me of “Martin” in Bart Simpson’s class.

Now you will never know this from watching CNN or reading its web site, cause it ain’t there, but Richard Quest was arrested Friday for running around Central Park very high on drugs, naked, and reportedly with a length of rope wrapped around his neck and also attached by the other end to that part of his anatomy that the Moyel would have attended to on the 8th day. Yahoo! News reports the sordid affair.

A New York judge ordered CNN reporter Richard Quest to undergo six months of counseling on Friday after Quest was arrested in Central Park for possession of a controlled substance, his lawyer said.

[ ... ]

He was arrested at 3:40 a.m. on Friday in New York’s Central Park for being in the park after a 1 a.m. curfew.

Police discovered a plastic bag containing what was believed to be methamphetamine in his pocket, police spokesman John Grimphel said.

Let me say that I have been in Central Park many a time, including for 60s anti-Vietnam War protests back when I was a young whipper snapper, and never once was I naked, although I spent most of the antiwar protests hoping that some coeds near me would take off their tops. [I am too old now to remember exactly why.] No, that is not me in the movie singing the Aquarius song.

Now I find this story quite inspiring. Not the part about the drugs, but the part about the rope.

In fact, I think we could probably produce peace in the Middle East if we adopt the idea. See, just attack ropes with one end around the neck and the other end around the other end, to all Israeli politicians implicated in the “peace process,” and set them loose to run around the Ramat Gan park at 3:00 in the AM, but making sure that THIS time CNN and not just Reuters is there to get the photo shoots.

And everything else will follow!

Israeli Forces Foil Poison Plot – Kill Al Aksa Terrorist

Today, in the Balata neighborhood of Shechem (Nablus), Israeli troops killed an enemy commander and captured two other enemy fighters. The IDF elite Duvdevan unit tracked Hani Ka’abi to his home and killed him in the ensuing battle. His deputy, Hosni Tzalag, and a third terrorist were captured.

Congratulations, Duvdevan!

IDF soldiers tracked down and killed the mastermind of a plot to carry out a terrorist attack through the use of poison, after surrounding his house in the Balata neighborhood of Shechem Thursday morning.

The terror attack planned by Ka’abi involved slipping a slow-acting poison powder, virtually undetectable, into the food of diners at the “Grill Express” restaurant in Ramat Gan, where he had managed to recruit two Arab kitchen workers as new operatives.

Islamization of Luton, England

Lionheart the Blogger was run out of town for daring to expose unsavory aspects of the Islamization of Luton, England. If the name Luton sounds familiar, it may be because three of the Jihadis who murdered 52 people in London, July 7, 2005, caught a train at the Luton station.

Zarrar Said, a Pakistani visitor, provides an insider’s peek into the Luton Ghetto.

My journey of self discovery began in England. I arrived at Heathrow at 6am and obviously my friend Turkish wasn’t there to pick me up. We named him Turkish after the Guy Ritchie movie Snatch.

Laziness is inbred in Pakistanis, I thought. A nation of lazy people. After looking around for a phone booth I ran into many tabloids on the floor promoting the Ashes series and the newly found English hero, Andrew Flintoff. The love for a game they themselves had invented had suddenly erupted in the hearts of Englishmen. In the past, Asian-English people would never had supported England but their ancestral nation, all of a sudden there was a national pride involved amongst all.

Turkish’s brother Bobby picked me up and we headed for Luton, an experience I will never forget. They were everywhere. Infesting the city. They had taken over like a virus. Pakis had conquered Luton. Downtown Luton could be easily mistaken for Kotli or Mirpur or even Muzzafarabad.

People in traditional clothes, a mosque every other block, veiled women, and throngs of boys. “Your shocked innit!” said Bobby, with a sly look on his face as if he was trying to say, “you’re in for it now mate!”. Suddenly my sleepiness had gone away. “It’s way backward here mate, lemme tell ya. Pakis just came here in the 50s and kept the bloody culture of the time… and not just any Pakis… Kashmiris mate!”. Kashmiris, the hillbillies of Pakistan.

Israeli Soldiers Kill Hamas Terrorist at Crossing

Legacy 2008 · By Mordecai

Thursday afternoon, Israeli troops killed one enemy fighter, wounded a second and took off in pursuit of a third. The three Jihadis tried to attack the Kerem Shalom crossing through which the Israeli government streams food, supplies and rocket fuel to the Hamas gang.

The IDF is great. Olmert sucks.

(IsraelNN.com) Early in the afternoon, Hamas terrorists attempted another sneak infiltration attack in Israel. The target was the Kerem Shalom crossing at the Israel-Egypt-Gaza border, through which Israel continues to stream food and supplies into Hamas-run Gaza.

An alert IDF desert patrol unit, generally comprised of Bedouin soldiers, identified the cell of three terrorists attempting to infiltrate into Israel near the crossing. The soldiers opened fire, killing one and wounding another, and took off in pursuit of the third.

The attempted attack eight days after Hamas terrorists from Gaza fired a heavy barrage of mortar shells at the Nachal Oz area, creating a cover under which two terrorists infiltrated the fuel depot there and murdered two employees – Oleg Lipson, 37, and Lev Cherniak, 53, both of Be’er Sheva.

In January 2002, four Bedouin soldiers of this unit were killed in the same area in a Palestinian terrorist attack. Two Gazan terrorists, carrying explosive belts, assault rifles, grenades, and dressed in PA police uniforms, infiltrated into Israel before dawn and killed them in their base near Kerem Shalom.

Close to 320 trucks have made their way from Israel to Gaza in just the past three days alone – including nearly 90 through the Kerem Shalom crossing – carrying many types of food, medical equipment, and various goods.

PC Passover Celebrates Gay, Faminist, Palestinian Liberation

Legacy 2008 · By Steve Plaut

In recent years, Passover has undergone a make-over in the American Jewish non-Orthodox community, one that has converted it largely into a holiday devoted to celebrating human rights, protesting a long list of human rights abuses and promoting fashionable causes. The remake seems designed to make Passover a cosmopolitan holiday, one with a universal message in which all can join, in essence the Jewish answer to the Declaration of the Rights of Man of the French Revolution.

Back in the 1960s, a series of Political Correctness Haggadot (plural of Haggada) were written, in which the message of Passover was turned into a celebration of the civil rights movement in the United States. Arthur Waskow, the guru of the *Tikkun*-”Renewal” crowd, wrote at the time a Black Liberation Passover Haggadah, celebrating black militants like the Black Panthers, who were themselves coincidentally calling at the same time for the annihilation of Jews. Later Political Correctness Haggadot were devoted to homosexual rights, women’s liberation, and assorted other faddish causes, not least of which was Palestinian “liberation”. No doubt, this year will see Defend Iran and Help Obama *Haggadot* or No War for Oil ones.

“Multicultural” Passover seders became fashionable in some circles, in which the seder became a mixture of acclamations for human rights and freedom, taken from a wide variety of non-Jewish sources.

As yet another illustration, a few years back the Passover cause celebre of American Jewish liberals was Tibet (my guess is it will be this year again), with Tibetan officials invited to Passover seders, and where the leftist Religious Action Center (RAC) of the Reform synagogue movement called on Jews to hold Tibetan-freedom Passover seders in solidarity with Tibet. The RAC is devoted to the proposition that Jewish values are nothing more and nothing less than this year’s leftist political fads, including gay “marriage”, supporting affirmative action apartheid programs, and opposing all welfare reform. Its head, Rabbi David Saperstein, was quoted with approval a few years back by the American Communist Party’s weekly newspaper.
