Celebrating Israeli Independence

By Will

Linda Mamoun wrote a funny and irreverent piece, “Israel Parties Like It’s 1948: Marketing Ethnic Cleansing.” It explores how pro-Israeli groups made Israel’s 60th anniversary a fun bonanza. Check it out.

Long Live Israel!

Here’s to 60 + more years of Kabobfest crying.

It’s more like 60+ years of deceptive Israeli crying. The zionist movement could’ve saved the Jews in Europe. Yet, they let their peers get massacared in order to play the “crying” game and justify taking someone else’s land and uproot it’s people.

Mamoun’s article was pretty funny though. First time I enjoy anything linked by Will.

Nidalio – A case in point example of an un-educated individual. I’d hate to have such an intellectual featherweight on my team. My condolences to Will and the gang..

Yay for substance-free name-calling from both sides?

“If I knew that it was possible to save all the children of Germany by transporting them to England, and only half by transferring them to the Land of Israel, I would choose the latter, for before us lies not only the numbers of these children but the historical reckoning of the people of Israel.”

– David Ben-Gurion (Quoted on pp 855-56 in Shabtai Teveth’s Ben-Gurion in a slightly different translation).
