OMG! ‘Peace Studies’ Dude Blames Jews, Recommends Reading ‘Protocols’?

Our secret Zionist masters have been kinda late with the payments lately, but my role in the conspiracy still requires me to denounce this: Johan Galtung, Norwegian sociologist nicknamed the “father of peace studies,” made anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli remarks while lecturing at the University of Oslo, in an article published afterward in the Norwegian press [...]

Boehlert vs. ‘Neocons’? (Nudge, Nudge)

Ed Schultz and Eric Boehlert on MSNBC Two weeks ago, Jeff Dunetz took note of M.J. Rosenberg’s departure from Media Matters (which I blogged about April 8 and April 10), and it’s kind of funny how sometimes when you pull a dangling thread, the whole sweater starts to unravel. Was Dunetz onto something? Was Rosenberg [...]

‘International Solidarity Movement’ Protester Is Welcomed in Israel

And by “welcomed,” I mean busted in his punk face with a rifle butt. It’s been a while since we’ve heard from the International Solidarity Movement, an alliance of Western leftists supporting Palestinian “armed resistance” against Israel. And my opinion of ISM is evidently shared by at least one member of the Israel military: Denmark [...]

Do We Now Know Why Media Matters Dumped M.J. Rosenberg?

You may have missed it over the weekend when I mentioned that the lberal smear outfit Media Matters had parted ways with M.J. Rosenberg, who had been espousing the “Jews Against Israel” gibberish we’ve recently heard from the far-left “J-Street” movement. Rosenberg tried to portray this move as voluntary, but in an update on the [...]

Too Stupid for Media Matters

In a sidebar headline at AOSHQ, I noticed a story from The Lid: BREAKING: MJ Rosenberg OUT At Media Matters Hmmm. Media Matters fires some guy. What’s this about? Rosenberg’s offense was describing pro-Israel Jews as “Israel Firsters.” Which is to say, Rosenberg thinks his fellow Jews are too pro-Israel. Let me see if I [...]

Ron, When You Accuse Israel Of Starting Hamas, You Need To Cite A Good Reference

by Smitty Ron, you can build a case that the history and politics are complicated, and unfortunate, and never moreso than the Middle East. But when you claim that Israel started Hamas as a means of checking Yassir Arafat, you had better back that up. Otherwise, you risk sounding like a tinfoil hat conspiracy theorist. [...]

Bibi, You Rock

by Smitty Keep on rockin’, Bibi. Maybe you’ll teach #OccupyResoluteDesk something about leadership, in spite of himself. Via Barbara

Why Does Obama Hate Jews?

Well, Republican Jews, anyway:

VIDEO: Latma Works Out On Bob Dylan ‘The Times, They Are A-Changin’

by Smitty This is one of those that is technically polished, and completely worth your time. Yet somehow the collision of Dylan and Gaza becomes so horrific that you may forget to laugh. via Atlas Shrugs

Israeli Women Nude = Feminist Solidarity

Don’t worry, buddy. It’s safe for work. Just barely. If your boss finds out you’ve been looking at Israeli women nude — that Google bomb’s gotta be worth a little search traffic, right? — just say it’s because you’re a progressive who’s all about feminist solidarity: This is the next logical move for Occupy Wall [...]

Pat Condell Offering Simple, Sad Truth

by Smitty A pitch-perfect delivery, via Da Tech Guy. UPDATE (RSM): The strongest sentence is when Condell says of the Palestinian leaders, “They don’t want peace, they want victory, and the won’t be happy until Israel is wiped from the map.” Palestinian nationalism is a toxic legacy of an era young people don’t remember and [...]

Arguably The Most Precision Bus Toss Since Bismarck

by Smitty I read Showalter’s tome The Wars of German Unification for a War College class: Taken together, three wars served to unify Germany and fundamentally altered the balance of power in 19th-century Europe: the Schleswig-Holstein conflict of 1864; the “Six Weeks’ War” of 1866; and the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. They marked the establishment [...]
