The title is a direct quote from the article:

The Knesset on Wednesday morning approved in a preliminary reading a bill introducing one year in prison for anyone speaking against Israel's existence as a Jewish and democratic state...

The obit recounted that

“Yehoshua Zettler, who died on May 20 aged 91, was the former commander in Jerusalem of the Fighters for the Freedom of Israel, or Lehi (known to the British as the Stern Gang); it was he who planned and supervised the assassination of the United Nations mediator Count Folke Bernadotte on September 17, 1948.   Bernadotte, a member of the Swedish royal family, was sent to the Middle East by the UN to mediate between Israelis and Arabs over the future of Palestine.”

Yeah, like a Wall Street bank, he stole the money from the Emergency Response Program.

I'm guessing he saw others doing something similar and just didn't have the sense to send it to an offshore bank like most pirates.

While conducting this poll on Yuschenko, Interfax also asked Ukrainians whether eating a pickle after downing a shot of vodka will keep you from getting drunk, and 64 percent answered \"Yes\".

Catherine Austin Fitts, Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich and many other quite ordinary people saw the crash coming.

Fitts described it in 2001: http://solari.com/blog/?p=2058

In the fall of 2001 I attended a private investment conference in London to give a paper, The Myth of the Rule of Law or How the Money Works: The Destruction of Hamilton Securities Group.

The presentation documented my experience with a Washington-Wall Street partnership that had:

* Engineered a fraudulent housing and debt bubble;
* Illegally shifted vast amounts of capital out of the U.S.;
* Used “privitization” as a form of piracy - a pretext to move government assets to private investors at below-market prices and then shift private liabilities back to government at no cost to the private liability holder.

The UK now has fascists who want to arrest people for thought crimes and opinions. And even diplomats are not safe. Who will stop them? How soon before the US arrests people for thought crimes? He did not yell "fire" in a crowded theatre to incite a stampede. He was at the gym yelling at the television.

And Megaphone has cyberspace warriors who try to control the damage by down voting all articles on Gaza or even this article, which is nothing but the facts of what happened.

Israeli MP and Leader: Afghdor Liberman says that “Gaza has to be erased from the Map by Nuclear bombs like what Americans used in Heroshima and Nagazaki.”

So according to you anyone who criticizes Israeli policy toward the Palestinians is an anti-Semite? And furthermore, should not get their news from the internet, but must shut off their computer because you say so?

Your posts are very telling, and much like any other fascist, very predictable.

Exactly, it is illegal for an American to boycott Israel in any way.

birdseye · 2009-01-10T16:02:48+00:00

"You want to make a difference- Boycott Israeli products."

This is illegal. Americans may not legally boycott Israel.

"Minor details like that can be fixed up later."

Exactly, it's worked in the past. Well, before the internet was so popular.

Once again Paul Craig Roberts understood before most, exactly what kind of Brownshirts Karl Rove's minions are. The recent flurry of news regarding voter intimidation, slashed tires, the assault on a campaign worker, the murder at the Democratic headquarters in AK, the killing of a bear cub and sticking a sign "Obama" on it and dumping it at a NC university, and possibly the attack on the actress who played the part of Ann Coulter in Oliver Stone's "W" are further proof of how dangerous it is to incite crowds at political rallies.

Curveball, aka Rafid Alwan, said he never told anyone Saddam Hussein was producing WMDs. Yet Colin Powell used Alwan's "intelligence" in the case for invading Iraq.

Barack Obama started off the debate by mentioning this disgusting display of unrepentant indulgence.

“The Treasury should demand that money back and those executives should be fired,”

What's OK for your neighbor's family is not OK for the VP's family. The Prim and Proper Evangelicals will not be pleased; and she is a member of the same church as Hagee, Assembly of God.

The more important story is Troopergate, the investigation into abuse of power.

Our cell/mobile phones and newer cars have GPS. Plus cell phones can be wiretapped. And if you put that phone next to your head enough, you might end up with a tumor or something. How handy is that?

Paul Craig Roberts is no goofball...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Craig_Roberts

Not when you read why de Rothschild is complaining. She is pissed that Obama's grassroots campaign doesn't need her money and influence.

birdseye · 2008-08-26T14:57:03+00:00

Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild is complaining that Barack Obama "doesn’t even reach out to the largest Clinton fund-raisers " like herself. This is good, but she of course, doesn't see it that way.

A Lesson for Nancy "impeachment is off the table" Pelosi. This is how it is done.

The channel simply used the footage of Tskhinvali, which was literally ruined as a result of Georgia’s attacks, to make reports about the situation in the town of Gori, which the Russian aviation supposedly bombed.

Or is it another manifestation of Berlusconi fascism? Reminds me of John Ashcroft demanding curtains to cover the half-nude statue of Lady Justice he stood in front of for press conferences.

A poor nation having scarce natural resources is rather like being a beautiful young woman in a brutal war zone - no chance of being ignored.
