Retired Archbishop Hilarion Capucci joined the Free Gaza Movement’s aid Flotilla to the Gaza Strip on the Mavi Marmara.   To Reuters he said:
“Our trip to Gaza was a trip of love and God was with us. Israel by its actions had rightly drawn world outrage over its brutality against unarmed people carrying a message of love to an innocent occupied people under siege.”
However, Reuters does not fail to mention in this article that this “peace-loving” Bischop was imprisoned by Israel in 1974 and later deported.
The” myth of the siege of Gaza”has been exploded in a research report that quotes Arab sources that say “Gaza markets are saturated with goods.” TheWashington Post reported last week that Gaza “pharmacies look as well-supplied as a typical Rite Aid.”
Recent photos and statements by Arab sources deny any shortage of food or merchandise in Gaza.

Don’t laugh. Not loudly, anyway. They have plenty of money, courtesy of oil revenues from the West.

For those antisemitic Leftist fruitbats who side with Iran against Israel, this is a classic example of what they’re siding with.
To what we owe the crusaders and the knights of Malta:
With the approaching first anniversary on June 12th of last year’s controversial Iranian presidential elections, officials of the Islamic Republic are bracing for possibly millions of protestors pouring into the streets in a show of strength that could eventually spell the end of the government’s 30-year reign of terror and oppression. So terrified is the current regime, apparently, that the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, on the recent celebration of Ayatollah Khomeini’s birthday, ordered all Iranians living abroad to return to their native land to be hanged or jailed for being “enemies of the Islamic Republic.”

Once Red Adair would be called in to stop an oil leak; now, Obama watches it from afar and parties on like crazy. Obama is like Nero. Even his “czars” are just another name for “Caesars” in Latin. He thinks he is running the Helly Roaming Empire – but he’s running it into the ground – which is his plan.
He wants to destroy the country.

The following are excerpts from an interview with Ahmad Ibrahimi, Imam and coordinator of the Algerian delegation to the “Freedom Flotilla,” which aired on Al-Aqsa TV on June 4, 2010.
Ahmad Ibrahimi: I swear on Allah, live on TV, that we felt no fear whatsoever of those brothers of apes and pigs. By Allah, I loathed them before, and my hatred of them has only grown, not because they punished and humiliated us, but because I had thought them to be worthy enemies, but it turns out that they are too despicable even to be called our enemies, because they are not our equals. They are cowards.
[…]
I took an oath that if they stamped my passport, I would rip it up and leave without a passport. Our hatred for these people is so intense that we wished, at those moments, that we could have been bombs, and blow up among those brothers of apes and pigs.

I believe in the principle that all the infidels are one group. No good can come of any of those infidels. All these people have issued resolutions – like the Goldstone report or some rulings of the court in the Hague – but when the time comes to implement them, none of them can put Israel in its place.
If we want to profit from what happened, we must mobilize the Islamic peoples and the Arab nation, because the Palestinian cause is a purely Islamic religious issue. If Palestine is liberated, the whole world will change. We do not want a national Palestinian state or borders. We want Palestine in its entirety.
[…]
[The Palestinians] said to us: “Don’t be scared of them. You will see that they are a Mickey Mouse army.” This turned out to be true. I swear by Allah that we saw their soldiers crying. By Allah, we saw signs of urine and feces on their clothes.
Toronto’s Love of Diversity Is Tested by Islamists
“If politeness and ceremony be observed toward Mohammedans, they imagine they are feared and become arrogant; but in showing severity and rudeness, they are impressed with fear and respect, and they are supple and manageable.”
A large influx of Muslim immigrants from Pakistan, Somalia, and elsewhere is putting “tolerant” Toronto to the test.
Toronto’s motto is “Diversity Our Strength.” According to the city’s official website, it is where “more than 150 languages are spoken daily and where 50 percent of [its 2.7 million] residents are born outside of Canada.”
When multiculturalism was declared official national policyin 1971, some citizens bristled, but others merely envisioned — to employ one Canadian blogger’s cynical expression — “more pavilions at Folkfest.” Already the destination of choice for many immigrants, Toronto duly appointed itself the country’s capital of multiculturalism.
Like newcomers before them, Muslims are eagerly courted by politicians, who are accustomed to treating Canada’s urban “ethnics” as colorful yet mostly harmless voting blocks. And, in turn, Muslims are requesting accommodation for various religious and cultural practices, just like every group before them — except that sometimes these demands are at odds with Canada’s Judeo-Christian heritage and “liberal” self-image.
All the while, the number of Muslims in the city is growing rapidly. Unlike a comparable city such as New York, which is about 9% Jewish and 3.5% Muslim, the same demographic ratio in Toronto is reversed:6.7% Muslim to 4.2% Jewish. This is a fairly recent development and the trend seems destined to continue. According to the latest Statistics Canada report, “Toronto’s population of Arabs and West Asians could more than triple between 2006 and 2031. … People with a non-Christian religion could represent nearly 31% of the census metropolitan area’s population by 2031, up from 21% in 2006.”

Indeed. If CAIR is reporting the Muslim news at The NY Times, is it any wonder that we are losing the war in the information battlespace?

The adjective “surreal” is mercilessly abused, so let’s not say that what I saw in London on Saturday afternoon was almost surreal; let’s say instead that I found the juxtaposition of two very different spectacles very odd indeed. One was the exodus of the audience from the Royal Albert Hall – apparently they’d been at an event called Moving Together, organised by the Fitness League – which consisted almost entirely of amiable women over 60 with printed skirts, white hair and sandals: hundreds of them. It’s a game in Kensington, looking at people leaving the Albert Hall and guessing what kind of concert they’d been at. This audience could, at a push, have been watching Cliff Richard.
“It was a bizarre situation,“said Johnson, 34, a former police officer in Garland, Tex., and U.S. Army soldier who moved here with his British wife three years ago and became this country’s first non-British police officer. He said running from trouble was exactly the opposite of what he learned as an American cop. Just yesterday, British police say they were forced to break off their pursuit of the gunman who killed a dozen people across a rural area in northern England last week because he turned the weapon on unarmed officers.  Barenaked:  Unarmed British police vs Muslim Rioters
That has Dutch Muslims worried: “Wilders is saying all the time he was wants to stop the Islamicization of Holland,”Spalburg said.
“We are all concerned now. It’s like we are not welcome any more,” said Ibraham Spalburg, the head of SPIOR, an umbrella organization of Muslim groups around the Dutch city of Rotterdam.
And Muslims were not leaving Holland, he added.
“We cannot go away,” he said. “It is our country as well as the country of the Dutch citizens. There are people who have been here 40, 50 years. They are Dutch now.
Holland – long seen as a liberal, pot-smoking hippie hang-out – seems keen to defend the culture that’s made it so free, to judge from this week’s election:
With 88 per cent of the votes counted, published partial results showed the Liberals with 31 and Labour on 30.
“The impossible has happened,” Wilders told a televised party gathering. “We are the biggest winner today. The Netherlands chose more security, less crime, less immigration and less Islam.” …
Mr Balkenende conceded defeat for his Christian Democrats when voters turned against the party, nearly halving its seats from 41 to 21.
More:
The argument is that Wilders and others want to change Holland ~ but the truth is more that they want to keep it the same!
It was almost as if Dutch leaders were preparing for an Islamic country without the Dutch people’s consent. Statements such as those made by the Christian Democrats only added fuel to the fire:
In 2006 Minister of Justice Piet Hein Donner provoked an outcry when he suggested the Netherlands might accept Sharia law in a constitutional manner. “It is a sure certainty for me: if two thirds of all Netherlanders tomorrow would want to introduce Sharia, then this possibility must exist. Could you block this legally? It would also be a scandal to say ‘this isn’t allowed! The majority counts. That is the essence of democracy.” The statements were categorically refused by parties across the political spectrum, as well as by one Muslim leader. [+]
If Dutch leaders believed that the country should move towards an Islamic state ~ then they should have put it on a platform and let people vote for it. But rather they chose the undemocratic way, calling anyone who opposed their mass Islamic immigration policy and Islamization efforts ~ racist and Islamophobic. Ignoring the fact that there is not a single Islamic state that respects the rights of others ~ and this is what many Muslims think is the way forward ~ in Europe. The people who voted for Wilders and even to a certain extent the people who voted for Rutte [who promised to clampdown on immigration marriages], have sent a loud message, by saying, No ~ we the Dutch people don’t want this!

Rabbi Receives Death Threats Over Helen Thomas Video
The New York rabbi who videotaped veteran White House correspondent Helen Thomas telling Jews to “get the hell out of Palestine” says he has received numerous death threats and thousands of pieces of hate mail in the days since Thomas’ abrupt retirement.
Rabbi David Nesenoff said he is facing an “overload” of threatening e-mails calling for a renewed Holocaust and targeting his family — a barrage of hate he said he planned to report to the police on Wednesday.
“This ticker tape keeps coming in,” Nesenoff told FoxNews.com. “We got one specific one saying, ‘We’re going to kill the Jews; watch your back.'” Â Foxnews
A beautifully written rebuttal to Fuggly, written by sarke/thanks to Gramfan
Here’s the thing. I’ve been thinking about poor Helen Thomas, who IÂ believe was probably just saying what everyone thinks and has therefore been made a scapegoat. Not that I really care, because we ought to share the scapegoat status once in a while. It’s the least we can do to dispel the stereotype that we are stingy, us irritating Jews.
Irritating enough, apparently – like the too-talented and bossy fame-hog Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) on Fox’s Glee – in our discovery of the written word, monotheism, modern physics, psychology, vaccinations, and the film industry, that every country that has ever “hosted” us has found it necessary to tell us to get the hell out, like Thomas did. (Ironically, the aforementioned Jewish character Rachel, in a particularly annoying moment in one episode, was told by classmates to move to Israel. I doubt the writers coordinated this telling joke – Jews do equal Israel in the eyes of the world, sorry J Street - with the State Department.)
Anywho. Helen, you know why we were in Germany and much of Eastern Europe in the first place? (And by the way, if I follow your advice, do you think the nice old ladies who got my grandmothers’ large houses and farms from the Nazis in what was once Czechoslovakia will kick the property back two generations? That would be cool because I’d love a vineyard and an agricultural estate.)
…We were in Germany and Hungary and Czechoslovakia and Russia (where we were regularly just plain killed by Cossacks), and also, for many centuries, Poland (ditto), cuz we were told to get the hell out of England, France, and Spain. (Or, you know, just plain killed by handsome and heroic fairytale knights.)
And you know why we were in Western Europe to begin with? Cuz we were told by the Greeks and the Romans – wait for it – to get the hell out of “Palestine,” where we had been living since the beginning of recorded history.
The problem with this is that the anti-Israel and Islamophilic Obama will fall for the lies, or appear to the world to have done so. War Is Deceit Update: “Abbas not truthful to Obama; denies PA incitement,” by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik for Palestinian Media Watch, June 10/via JW
On Wednesday, CNN.com reached a new low by blatantly playing the race card: President Obamais afraid to look angry in public because white people historically haven’t liked angry black men.
This conclusion was offered by four supposed experts (all of whom were sympathetic to Obama), with no one else mentioned to provide any ounce of skepticism.
The Obama fanboys are in a massive state of denial about this president’s ingrained hostility toward fundamental American values, but facts are stubborn things.
And another four hundred million to the corrupt ex-henchmen of Arafat, who alone was resonsible for the disappearance of billions in Western aid.
Mahmoud Abbas and his children thank the American taxpayers for this money and assure them it will be put to good use, as have been all the billions given by the non-Muslims to the Slow Jihadists of Fatah over the years.
Fortunately we in the United States have no real expenses, and are happy to share and share and share with our Muslim friends who are working for peace. And we quite understand why Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., Kuwait, Qatar, Libya, Iran, Algeria, and so on have no desire to contribute as well to the care and feeding, in apparent perpetuity, of the “Palestinians.” It would give Infidels the wrong idea. It would allow them to think they do not owe the Muslim Arabs a living, beginning with the shock troops of the violent Jihad against Israel, the those local Arabs known now as “the Palestinians.”
