The US should back Israel and not undermine her.
By Ted Belman
I was one of four bloggers asked by The Hill to write a 500 word essay in answer to this question, “Can the Obama administration forge a peace agreement, and what steps should it be taking in Mideast policy?” It picked two bloggers from each side although only two were posted. The Hill has enormous traffic so I was honoured and relished the opportunity to address a large audience.
My dilemma was in deciding how best to use the 500 words. Here’s my essay. Should I have used the words differently? You can go to the link above to read my opponent’s piece of trash.
Time for a paradigm shift in the peace process
One cannot answer this question without regard to the religious, historical and legal context for the conflict. The conflict has continued for over 100 years and for good reason.
More than 3,000 years ago God promised these lands to the Jewish people. King Solomon built the Temple in Jerusalem 2,900 years ago. The Temple was...

By Andrew L. Jaffee, netwmd.com
The people behind the planned Ground Zero mosque, like Feisal Abdul Rauf, just seem to be getting uglier and uglier. From The New York Daily News, entitled, “Park51 developer Sharif El-Gamal has a history of run-ins with the law:”

USS Cole Bomber Won’t Be Prosecuted
Laura: The Hussein Obama administration outrages just keep piling up. Every move he makes is to appease muslims at the expense of America. And we can’t risk offending the muslim world by prosecuting muslims who have murdered Americans.
Administration halts prosecution of alleged USS Cole bomber
By Peter Finn
Washington Post Staff Writer
The Obama administration has shelved the planned prosecution of Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, the alleged coordinator of the Oct. 2000 suicide attack on the USS Cole in Yemen, according to a court filing.
The decision at least temporarily scuttles what was supposed to be the signature trial of a major al-Qaeda figure under a reformed system of military commissions. And it comes practically on the eve of the 10th anniversary of the attack, which killed 17 sailors and wounded dozens when a boat packed with explosives ripped a hole in the side of the warship in the port of Aden.
In a filing this week in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the...
Who Really Rules America?
New book: Arab lobby rules America
New book by Mideast expert Mitchell Bard claims Arab lobby, headed by Saudis, ‘has unlimited resources to try to buy what they usually cannot win on merits of their arguments’
WASHINGTON – The Arab lobby and most particularly the Saudi lobby, one of the strongest in America—even stronger than Israel’s, according to a controversial new book penned by an American expert on the Middle East.
Mitchell Bard’s “Arab Lobby” was written as a sort of response to those who warn of AIPAC’s influence over Washington.
Bard, who serves as executive director of the nonprofit American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise (AICE), claims that “one of the most important distinguishing characteristics of the Arab lobby is that it has no popular support. While the Israeli lobby has hundreds of thousands of grass root members and public opinion polls consistently reveal a huge gap between support for Israel and the...
How America Helped Hitler Kill Jews…..”THE NAZI NEXUS”
Hitler did it. But Hitler had help. Nazi Nexus chronicles the type of indispensable help Hitler did receive. Without American corporate assistance and American racist ideology the dimensions and enormity of the Holocaust would have been reduced to less than historic proportions.

New History Channel Documentary on Thomas Jefferson Whitewashes Barbary Islamists
By Andrew L. Jaffee, netwmd.com
A new History Channel documentary on Thomas Jefferson which premiered Tuesday, August 24 completely whitewashed Muslim North African barbaric piratry and flagrant disregard for free trade — and why the U.S. went to war to stop the Barbary States (c.a. 1801). The documentary never even mentioned the word “Islam” or “Muslim” even though certain Muslim beliefs were an integral part of the historical context in which President Jefferson built up our navy and went to war. The show only mentioned the word “pasha” (of Tripoli). In truth, the Founding Fathers found out exactly what the Barbary Islamists were: Violent, unprincipled, and arrogant — a pack of thieves. Sound familiar?

We Erect this Nidstang (curse pole) against Rachel Giora of Tel Aviv University
Rachel Giora, a Professor of Linguistics at Tel Aviv University, calls for a boycott of Israel
by Bill Levinson
Q: What is the difference between Rachel Giora and a kapo (Jewish concentration camp trustee whose job was often to pull the gold fillings out of dead Jews’ teeth and then throw the dead Jews in the crematoria)?
A: Many if not most kapos had guns to their heads, sometimes literally. Giora’s actions against her country are purely voluntary.
We are not attorneys and we do not know how Israeli law defines treason. The United States’ definition is quite limited; treason consists of levying war against the United States or giving aid and comfort to the declared enemies of the United States. We say “declared” because Jane Fonda’s conduct during the Vietnam War, while morally treasonous in every sense of the word, was apparently not legally so because neither the United States nor North Vietnam had declared war on the other. The same...
Rauf Supports Iranian Regime
Laura: More evidence of rauf’s extremism surfaces as he is quoted supporting Iran’s islamic revolution.
Rauf maliciously and falsely accuses America of having more muslim blood on its hands then do muslims of innocent non-muslims. Rauf is not a bit disturbed over infidels who have been slaughtered by muslims, nor does he speak out regarding muslim on muslim violence such as muslim women who have been “honor” murdered, stoned to death, genitally mutilated etc. Nor is he the least bit disturbed by the children used as suicide bombers and indoctrinated into believing that becoming a shahid is the highest honor they can achieve. What kind of a depraved culture teaches their children to aspire to blow themselves up? But this child abuse from islam is of no concern to rauf. Nor is the fact that the Iranian islamic regime used young children to clear minefields during the Iran-Iraq war, telling them they were going to paradise. No, in fact rauf has defended...
