The Holy Church of St. Pancake
The International Solidarity Movement and the Rachel Corrie Death Cult

Back in 2003, when Charles Johnson was still able to maintain some semblance of sanity, a commenter at Little Green Footballs — no doubt long since banished — responded to the death of Rachel Corrie by dubbing her “St. Pancake.” A jest both crude and arguably cruel, yet in two words, that LGF commenter captured a reality that has endured, […]

Hmmmmm

“We have been working non-stop for the last twenty-four hours examining the cargo holds of the three large cargo ships and I can say with great assurance, that none of the equipment on board is needed in Gaza. The equipment that we found is all equipment that we have regularly allowed into the strip over […]

Associated Press: Bias? What Bias?

Strictly neutral and objective: Israeli naval commandos stormed a flotilla of ships carrying aid and hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists to the blockaded Gaza Strip on Monday, killing nine passengers in a botched raid that provoked international outrage and a diplomatic crisis. Dozens of activists and six Israeli soldiers were wounded in the bloody predawn confrontation […]

‘How Can Someone Hate America?’

The Boston Herald reports on yesterday’s raids: Federal agents are scrambling today to determine whether a Boston cab driver and Brookline gas station attendant arrested yesterday in a massive sweep knew whether their money was provided to a suspected Times Square terror bomber. The Pakistani natives were rounded up in raids in Watertown and Brookline […]

Will Terrorists Boycott Arizona?

Da Tech Guy told me that some residents of Watertown, Mass., he spoke with today said it’s time for Massachusetts to pass its own version of the new Arizona immigration law. Which would be a 180-degree reversal of what was happening in Massachusetts before this morning’s raids: Last week, the Boston City Council passed a measure that would […]
