Jihad Watch In a great victory for decency and sanity, the Court of Amsterdam has acquitted Geert Wilders of all charges. Wilders remarked: “I am delighted with this ruling. It is a victory, not only for me but for all the Dutch people. Today is a victory for freedom of speech. The Dutch are still allowed to speak critically about islam, and resistance against islamisation is not a crime. I have spoken, I speak and I shall continue to speak.” Pamela Geller lists these as the charges against Wilders: On each, he was acquitted. It is a great victory for common sense, and a decisive defeat for the Islamic supremacist forces that have been trying to destroy the freedom of speech and compel dhimmi Western governments to label the truth about Islam and jihad as “hate speech.” But we are not out of...Alan West: “Never was a Palestinian state”
Gert Wilders acquitted of all hate charges. Hurray.
Make Arabs in Judea and Samaria into Metics
Ancient Athens shows how to handle non-citizen residents
by Bill Levinson
Israel’s annexation of Judea, Samaria, and possibly Gaza would require it to do something with the Arab residents.Ancient Athens provides an off the shelf answer.
In ancient Greece, the term metic referred to a resident alien, one who did not have citizen rights in his or her Greek city-state (polis) of residence.
Although there were some aspects of dhimmitude (second class citizenship) for Athenian metics–the reference says they had to pay a special tax and WERE subject to military service–we would recommend that this status in Israel merely exclude the Arab metics from voting, service in the Armed Forces, and birthright citizenship for their children. They would otherwise enjoy whatever civil and economic rights Israelis voted for themselves, which would be far more than they would enjoy as “citizens” of most Arab countries.

GOD BLESS MICHELE BACHMANN!!!!!!!!!!
Watch this speech by Congresswoman and Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann on Israel.
I cannot remember EVER hearing a more pro-Israel speech by ANY American presidential candidate in my life.I cannot remember EVER hearing a more cogent explanation of Israel’s importance to the US by ANY American presidential candidate in my life.And this speech came out of nowhere. She’s not pandering for votes. No one asked her to say this. She just decided that she had to make a statement.What a great woman. What a great leader. What a great American.God bless you Michele Bachmann!
Is the FBI Investigating Obama?
By Cliff Kincaid
In a front page story http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/activists-cry-foul-over-fbi-probe/2011/06/09/AGPRskTH_story.html> [1] about a major FBI terrorism investigation, The Washington Post has reported that the targets include “Chicagoans who crossed paths with Obama when he was a young state senator and some who have been active in labor unions that supported his political rise.” The implication is that the trail could lead to the White House.
This is an unusual investigation that does not primarily involve Islamists. Instead, it is focused on elements of the old international communist networks that many people mistakenly thought had faded away with the collapse of the Soviet Union. Those under investigation are suspected of providing support to foreign terrorist organizations such as the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine in the Middle East, a Marxist group. The Post called them...
