Funny how the Left which supports the genocidal Hamas, gets all upset over a Sarah Palin using the term “blood libel” claiming that it is anti Semitic. Palin is more pro Israel then all of them combined and no group has proprietary rights on terms such as “blood libel”, “racism”, “holocaust”, and “genocide”. It is the Left (with its puppet master Goerge Soros) which is in the forefront (along with its Islamofascist allies) in pushing forward the agenda of delegitimizing, boycotting and ultimately working for the dissolution of the Jewish nation, therefore its anguish over a phony charge of anti-Semitism rings hollow to me.
by David Harsanyi
Wasn’t it moving to see progressive tweetdom and punditry unite in the defense of Jewry — in the Middle Ages? As a member of this most oppressed minority, I personally want to thank you.
After all, how dare she? The media are so sick and tired of Sarah Palin’s shtick (that’s one of the words we use in private) that they created a stampede to Wikipedia to quickly figure out just how divisive this “blood libel” thing, whatever it means, could be to American discourse.
Now, just for the record, we Jews haven’t been using the blood of gentile kids for our baking needs in at least a couple of decades, but in historical terms, blood libel refers to false accusations that Jews were murdering children to use their blood in religious rituals — and an excuse for anti-Semitism. It was heavily utilized in the Middle Ages by some Christians and, with a few modifications, is a regular smear in the Muslim world today.
Jeremy Ben-Ami, president of Israel antagonists at J Street (an outfit that USA Today accidentally referred to as “a political organization for Jews and supporters of Israel”), spoke for hundreds when he claimed that “the term ‘blood libel’ brings back painful echoes of a very dark time in our communal history when Jews were falsely accused of committing heinous deeds” and demanded that Palin “retract her comment, apologize and make a less inflammatory choice of words.”
Really? Memory? Inflammatory? Painful echoes?
Jews, well, we can be offended like it’s 1257.
If blood libel is really a distasteful parallel, it is only because we have intimately familiarized ourselves with the idea through a History channel documentary about the crusades. And if our institutional memories make us so thin-skinned, there are far more tangible reminders of genocide when we hop into our fancy German cars (which we do a lot, because we’re in charge of everything). Or it is certainly as offensive as the heinous deeds of Sarah Palin, which include, among many other transgressions, talking.
And as Jim Geraghty of National Review helpfully noted, the term “blood libel” has been used many times by pundits and journalists from both sides of the ideological divide, including the esteemed Frank Rich of The New York Times, over the years.
[....]
Perhaps if self-proclaimed spokespeople for Jews everywhere like J Street focused on genuine anti-Semitism around the world, their little partisan cabaret would be more plausible.
Blood libel is the fiction-laden, anti-Israel Goldstone Report. Blood libel is the flotilla incident near Gaza. Blood libel is the Egyptian state media’s peddling the idea that shark attacks were the handiwork of Jews and other state-run Arab media’s blaming AIDS on Zionists.
There are plenty of genuine things to get offended about in the world if you’re Jewish.
Read the rest Blood libel? Oy vey!

CAIR Says Poster Warning Against Helping FBI is Misinterpreted

Tucson Shooting Survivor Blood Libels Palin, Boehner, Beck and Angle
A wounded survivor of the Tuscon shooting that critically injured Rep. Gabrielle Giffords is blaming Sarah Palin, House Speaker John Boehner, Fox TV host Glenn Beck, and former Nevada GOP Senate candidate Sharron Angle for the tragedy.
“It looks like Palin, Beck, Sharron Angle and the rest got their first target,” Eric Fuller said in an interview with Democracy NOW.
“Their wish for Second Amendment activism has been fulfilled — senseless hatred leading to murder, lunatic fringe anarchism, subscribed to by John Boehner, mainstream rebels with vengeance for all, even 9-year-old girls,” he added, referring to the death of Christina Taylor Green.
I would say Palin did the world a service. The majority of the people in the US do not know what the words “Blood Libel” mean. that part of history was never in any of my high school or college textbooks. Once the internet fired up I heard the term here and there but never was interested in looking up the full meaning. I asked what it meant on this blog last year and for the first time came to knowledge about it.
Organ stealing seems to be the modern equivalent.
If anything Palins statement points out that lefties would love to do blood libel if they could get away with it and if not they will accuse non lefties of it.
Democrats should be embarrassed to be Democrats.
A palin presidential run as pres or vp will start to cleanse and heal a lot of this irrationaility of the pro science left.
The Fifth Column Treasonous Media are screaming bloody murder over Sarah Palin’s use of the term Blood Libel because they genuinely know that that accusation was aimed directly at them and that it was a 100 percent true and accurate accusation.
@ Speranza:
thereis that f’ing word again
The number of Americans filing for first-time unemployment benefits rose unexpectedly to 445,000 from 410,000 in the prior week, a Labor Department report showed. It was the biggest one-week jump in about six months and confounded analyst forecasts for a small drop to 405,000.
“confounded”? wtf?
Sarah Palin has never espoused anything but complete and absolute support for Israel as a Democracy and close ally of America. Anyone who matters knows this.
fck the left.
They are such shrieking hypocrites blowing smoke and spinning their wheels. They look like deranged maniacs as they continue to scrape bottom trying to find new reasons to attack her.
They are on thin ice with this and look like fools.

He’s also got a post up attacking Sarah Palin’s speech before the Safari Club, which was scheduled MONTHS before the Tucson shootings as being an “insensitive” appearance at a “gun convention”.

Maine Governor to NAACP: ‘Kiss My Butt’
Maine Republican Gov. Paul LePage is keeping up his reputation for blunt language, telling an unhappy NAACP chapter that they can “kiss my butt.”
The governor made the comments to CNN affiliate WCSH after being asked about criticism he received from the organization for refusing to attend an event it is sponsoring on behalf of Martin Luther King Day.
“They are a special interest. End of story…and I’m not going to be held hostage by special interests. And if they want, they can look at my family picture. My son happens to be black, so they can do whatever they’d like about it,” LePage said.
The governor has an adopted son from Jamaica, according to WSCH.
Specifically, the NAACP event involved meeting with black prisoners at the state prison. Le Page maintains the organization rejected his requirement to meet with all prisoners at the event.
“That wasn’t acceptable to them,” LePage said. “So, tough luck.”

That didn’t take long.
Just two weeks after she took the job of schools chancellor, Cathie Black has already put her foot in her mouth — reportedly telling parents that her solution to overcrowded schools is “birth control.”
“Could we just have some birth control?” Black said during a meeting of Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver’s school overcrowding task force on Thursday in lower Manhattan.
“It would really help us out a lot,” she added.

Alexander was greatly impressed by Porus and for his bravery in battle, and therefore mad an alliance with him and appointed him as satrap of his own kingdom, even adding land that he did no own before.
Then Alexander fearing the prospects of facing another powerful Indian army and as his army mutinied at the Hyphasis River, refusing to march further east.
like that, India stood up against Alexander and won.

Destroying nuclear weapons is something I do know more than a little bit about.
It has to be done by people on the ground, who have the training and equipment to properly do it. You can’t do it with missiles, if for no other reason than the fact that you’ll never know for sure that they were actually there if you can’t see them.
Remember how many times we were “sure” that we’d killed Saddam back in 2003?

The Democrats making Palin look Lincolnesque? Of course, Lincoln could never win election today. Not telegenic enough, for one thing. Not smooth and polished at all. Very country. Kind of Palinesque, now that I think of it…

There are too many of them, and it would take too long, to retrieve them, so the only practical solution is to destroy them where they sit.
You do that using shaped charges placed in precise locations on the outside of the casings.

Ok Fair enough.
I just frustrated that we are always having to do stuff and gain nothing out of it. The war made my cousin nuts and I see people younger than me with missing arms and legs, for what? My country is broke, economy stagnant, my generation is worse off than our parents and there’s no hope for a better tomorrow. At least when the Romans, Mongols, Spanish, French and Brits had an Empire, the people benefited by seizing land and resources and enjoying the plunder. We haven’t benefited nothing from our quasi Empire.
I’m sorry If I was trying to argue with you and Nevergiveup since you two are military, but I’m frustrated with these wars that haven’t done crap for us while we are broke and the people are hurting. I’m a history buff and I have read this story before. It never ends well and I don’t want America to suffer the fate of Rome, Spain and England.
My apologies to you two but this is where I’m coming from.
@ lobo91:
I was thinking that you could use a penetrating warhead in the low kiloton range. You’d destroy whatever was at the target, no sweat, but you couldn’t verify that what you thought was at the sight you destroyed was at the site you destroyed. You still won’t know you got them all, unless you have a precise and reliable count. And I don’t know what you’d do if one was missing…
The Left are lairs.
Now pass me a bloody donut.

Oh, yeah, he’s a total dick. The apple fell far from the tree there. The Left, though, don’t need a reason to hate Reagan beyond that he was the last great American President. He did so much for this nation, and they hate him so badly for it…

You don’t need to apologize for anything.
It’s just a different perspective. You’re looking at it from an ideological/theoretical point of view, and I’m looking at it from a practical/technical one.
I certainly don’t want us to get involved in Pakistan’s internal problems. I just don’t see any other practical way to do what needs to be done.
Even if the Indians had the ability to carry out the task, it would undoubtedly result in another regional war, which isn’t going to make life easier for anyone. If we do it, what are they going to do about it that they aren’t already doing? Invade California?

When we trained for emergency destruction, the best part was what came after the bang. Two of us (meaning myself and an officer) were supposed to visually verify that all the warheads had been destroyed.

[...] Weasel Zippers has the scoop (h/t: vagabond trader): [...]
So, the sensitive left is for keeping “blood libel” to its specific temporal context?
But not “holocaust”, which may be used for the deaths of black slaves by everyone except the Arabs for the deaths of Palestinians at Israel’s hands.
But not “apartheid”, which may be used to describe Israel.
Only the left can tell the difference between metaphorical and literal.

I am not sure why people here expect anything from India. This is a country where pogroms against christians happens more often than not.
Normally hindus just burn their homes or business to the ground when the do not renounce Christ, but they do kill many evey year.
I wouldn’t expect much from their military capabilities.. their neighbors will be putting it to the test soon enough anyway.
(CN) – Prosecutors indicted on Tuesday a Maryland inmate who threatened a federal judge and sent a letter to President Obama, stating, “I just hope Allah grants me the opportunity to be the one who chops off your head.”
Willie Ray Bryant, 40, is reportedly serving a 40-year sentence for his role in a string of Maryland robberies.
This week’s indictment, filed in Maryland federal court, charges Bryant with mailing threatening communications and threats against the president.
Prosecutors say Bryant mailed U.S. District Judge William Quarles Jr. a letter on Sept. 11, 2010, “containing a threat to injure him with a mailed explosive device.” Quarles is a judge on the Maryland federal court.
A month later, Bryant mailed a threatening letter to Obama, according to the two-page indictment.
Prosecutors say Bryant wrote: “I just hope Allah grants me the opportunity to be the one who chops off your head,” “die die die!!!” and “If I ever ever (sic) get out I promise you I’m coming after you.”
He must be a racist white right-wing teabagger!
