Free Jonathan Pollard

American Hero

1. What do Congressmen Barney Frank (Likud, Mass), Steve Rothman (Likud, New Jersey), Bill Pascrell (Likud, New Jersey) and Anthony Weiner (Likud, New York) have in common ?  No, no, it’s not what you are thinking goys and girls, Barney Frank is the only of the of the four to have run a homosexual whore-house out of his apartment, so that’s not it. Try again.

I know that others of you are thinking, “They initiated a letter to Israeli Vice President for American Affairs (IVPFAA) Barack Obama (BO) in which they asked Obama to grant clemency to poor Jonathan Pollard.”   Sorry, you are close, but no cigar. I mean, you are correct, they did do this, but that is still the wrong answer. In fact, to prove my point, below is the text of the letter taken right from the website run by Pollard’s second wife. You can skip this letter for now to get to the rest of the post if you’d like.

October xx, 2010

President Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, D.C. 20500

Dear Mr. President,

We write to urge you to use your constitutional power to extend clemency to Jonathan Pollard, thereby releasing him from prison after the time he has already served. As you know, such an exercise of the clemency power does not in any way imply doubt about his guilt, nor cast any aspersions on the process by which he was convicted. Those who have such views are of course entitled to continue to have them, but the clemency grant has nothing to do with that.

We believe that there has been a great disparity from the standpoint of justice between the amount of time Mr. Pollard has served and the time that has been served – or not served at all – by many others who were found guilty of similar activity on behalf of nations adversarial to us, unlike Israel.

Recently, we allowed a large number of Russians, who had been spying on us for the country that had long been our major adversary, to leave with no punishment whatsoever. This makes it very hard for many to understand why Mr. Pollard should continue to serve beyond the nearly twenty-five years he has already been in prison. We agree that it is important that we establish the principle that espionage of any sort is impermissible, but it is indisputable in our view that the nearly twenty-five years that Mr. Pollard has served stands as a sufficient time from the standpoint of either punishment or deterrence.

We further believe that at a time when Israel, our democratic ally, is being faced with difficult decisions, a decision by you to grant clemency would not only be a humane act regarding Mr. Pollard, but it would also be taken in Israel as a further affirmation of the strong commitment the U.S. has to the ties between us, and we believe that such an affirmation could be especially useful at a time when those decisions are being made.

In summary, we see clemency for Mr. Pollard as an act of compassion justified by the way others have been treated by our justice system; as an act that will do nothing whatsoever to lessen our defenses against espionage; and a step that far from hurting the national security, could advance it by the impact it would have within Israel. We urge you to use the clemency power in this case.

Okay goys and girls, I bet you are thoroughly confused. They did initiate this letter so why isn’t that the answer?  The real answer is that these four guys are a bunch of fucking pussies. They are afraid to ask for anything more than clemency for Pollard. Hell, everyone in this country  has known since they were tall enough to kiss Frank’s ass without having to stand on a stool that over  90 % of the members of the House and Senate would line up single file in a snowstorm outside of the Israeli embassy in Washington to give Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren a blow job if they were ordered to do so by Israel, so what’s this crap about just asking for clemency? And only 39 congressmen have signed the thing up until now!  Oh my Allah, what has this world come to?

American Pussy

We here at Mantiq al-Tayr – meaning all of the Tuyuur – demand that the IVPFAA get the new year (1432 I think it is, let me check, yes that’s right) off to a kosher start not by commuting Pollard’s sentence but rather by giving him a full pardon, restoring all of his rights, paying him and the state of Israel compensation for the 25 years he has been held in prison at taxpayer’s expense, giving him a job as an aide to Dennis Ross in the White House, bestowing the Presidential Medal of Freedom upon him, and then using your influence to have him awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

That’s right god damn it. How in the hell could our system have even considered imprisoning someone who turned over to Israel a stack of highly-classified documents that would be about “six feet wide, six feet long, and ten feet high”? For this, he ought to get a Congressional Medal of Honor and Obama shouldn’t give it to him in some dump in the Naval Yard the way it was done to the Commander of the USS Liberty, William McGonagle, for having his ship get in the way of about 850 Israeli shells, countless bullet rounds and an Israeli torpedo, but rather it should be done in the Oval Office with Alan Derwoshitz and Wolf Blitzer in attendance.  In addition, we demand that the US government issue an official apology to the state of Israel in which it declares that Israeli spying on the United States is not only not considered a crime, but instead is something that the US government encourages all of its employees and those who know its employees to engage in freely and openly. This would, of course, be in accord with poor Jonathan’s defense strategy and with the reasoning of the great American hero Steven Rosen in his lawsuit against AIPAC. Please note that Rosen himself never went to jail for spying for Israel, nor did his goy buddy, Larry Franklin, nor did Ben-Ami Kadish who was spying for Israel at the same time Pollard was and even had the same handler, the great humanitarian Rafi Eitan.

I am not making this up. Pollard’s lawyers did argue that the US Department of Justice had a policy of not prosecuting Israeli spies. Grant Smith, who knows everything about our plucky little friends in the Israeli lobby, writes:

He [Pollard] attached press clippings of other instances of the US government detaining accused Israeli spies or uncovering illicit transfers of classified information that did not result in prosecution.  Pollard’s defense brashly stated “it was the established policy of the Department of Justice not to prosecute U.S. citizens for espionage activities on behalf of Israel.”

One other thing Mr. IVPFAA. After all of this is done, you should then replace that credit card state guy –Joe“I am a Zionist” Biden with Pollard on your ticket for the 2012 IVPFAA race. No neo-con could attack you then, having Pollard on your side is like having millions and millions of spies all working for you in the media, in Hollywood, on Wall Street, in Congress – every where that ye turn, there will be the face of Zion, or something like that anyway. How could you lose? What would make it even better would be for you to win in 2012 and then, right after swearing yourself in – try to do it right next time, but I digress – you should announce your resignation so Pollard can become President. He can then pick Butt-Fuck Barney as the new VP.

Of course, Pollard might just want to go home after you get him out of jail, home being Israel of course where no doubt there’s tons of money saved up for him and where he will be regarded as an Israeli national hero – something that would be good for all Americans to see. And then, when he’s back there at home in good old Israel, you could maybe give him the Awlaqi treatment. Hell, as Grant Smith tells us, even Pollard’s handler, did I mention that he is a great humanitarian?, Rafi Eitan, said of Pollard:

“If I had been at the [Israeli] Embassy when Pollard came to seek asylum, I would have put a bullet through his head and there would have been no Pollard affair.’”

2. By the way, Ann Pollard, Pollard’s first wife who is also an out-and-out traitor to the United States but who was only sentenced to five years in prison, has again gone to live in Israel where she is doing  better after having a tough time in New York.

Commenting on the affair, Netanyahu said: “We have a moral and humanitarian obligation to Ann Pollard, who paid a heavy personal price of five years in prison.”

“I am planning to strike roots in Israel all over again. I never stopped feeling as though this is my home. I am returning home now,” Pollard said excitedly shortly after landing.

3. The Pollard affair is such an incredible story that I plan to relate parts of it in most of my upcoming posts. You literally will not know whether to laugh or cry.

4. In fact, I think I’ll add a tidbit I’d saved for a future post on this subject right here and now. As you all know, unless you are as stupid as a Shas Party member, Representative Peter King (Asshole, New York) wants to hold Congressional hearings on how Mooselims in the US are getting radicalized and want to kill your grandmother.

Now as readers to this site are well aware, there is a very serious radicalization program here in the United States but it ain’t run by them there Mooselims. It’s run by a ton of organizations that are out there to get American Jews to be loyal to Israel and they start on Jewish kids when they are youngins and they work on them for basically ever – and they are pretty fucking successful. Such organizations are Nefesh B’Nefesh, MASA, Birthright Israel, Camp Young Judea, Bnei Akiva and a bunch of others. Let’s give honorable mention to the Yeshiva called Ateret Cohanim which actually built a house in the West Bank and named it after Pollard.   Eventually the recruits end up in Israel for some – brain washing.  You can search on these terms on this site to learn more. The first post that dealt with a bunch of these is here.

This is where the really serious radicalization in the US is happening – and don’t forget to include a bunch of schools and synagogues as well.  And it just so happens that Jonathan Pollard first went to Israel when he was about sixteen to attend a “summer camp” where it also just so happens he first met the woman who would become his second  (and current) wife and the person who runs his appallingly funny website. She says:

I met him in 1971. We were both very young. We were participating in summer programs in Israel. We had a lot in common, our great love for the land and people of Israel.

On this point Seymour Hersh wrote:

One of the boy’s happiest times, the family told journalists after his arrest, came when, at the age of sixteen, he attended a summer camp for gifted children in Israel. He talked then of serving in the Israeli Army, but instead he finished high school and went on to Stanford University. His Stanford classmates later recalled that he was full of stories about his ties to Israeli intelligence and the Israeli Army.

So “Congressman” (and I use that term loosely) King, I suggest you hold hearings on the radicalization of Jewish boys and girls and the resulting and sometimes well-documented harm they end up doing to the United States.  But you won’t because you are a fake, a hypocrite and ought to be investigated yourself.

5.  It’s video time. Get out your barf bags goys and girls. This first video is very revealing in ways no doubt not intended by the speaker.

This one features two of the most beautiful people in the world. For Shas Party members – the music starts at 3:28 if you don’t want to wait for it.

Now as further proof that radicalization of American Jews is a very serious problem, here is the lovely Caroline Glick speaking up for Jonathan Pollard. Does that name Glick ring a bell? It should. More on her in a minute, but first let’s see her perform.

Glick, who  by the way is a US citizen who went to Israel in 1991 and became an Israeli. She is now a big shot editor at the Jerusalem Post and works with a US-based think tank. She’s a hard line Islamophobe  and was a featured speaker in the hideous “Obsession” movie sent out to voters in swing states during the last election for the IVPFAA.  Pretty cool considering that the video was made by a Canadian-Israeli and who is an obvious operative and nutcase.  She is also the producer of the video “We Con the World”, the video which made fun of the deaths of people on-board the Mavi Marmara and which shows just how wonderful she and her fellow travelers are. Really beautiful people.  She even appears in the video, see if you can find her in it.

Ladies and gentlemen, you heard it first here. We’re fucked.

Unless we do something.

2. Of course it is Christmas time and though there is so much to write about I thought I’d take a little time off for a few days. So for this week I am posting below under items 3 and 4 the two main pieces from our Christmas post from last year – two pieces which speak to one of the major themes of this blog – that Christians and Muslims have much in common and should be working together. The items concern Christian and Muslim narratives about the birth of Jesus Christ and their relationship to a well-known and widely-sung Christmas carol. My readership this year is rather different from what it was at this time last year, so I think these pieces will be new to many of you.  Enjoy.

3. The Cherry Tree Carol is a haunting story of the mystery and beauty of Christmas derived from one of the apocryphal Gospels, that of Psuedo- Matthew, which is also know as The Infancy Gospel of Matthew.

In this now popular Christmas carol, Joseph and Mary are walking near or through an orchard of cherry trees. She asks Joseph to pick some cherries for her because she is with child and would appreciate a helping hand. Joseph, as husbands tend to do when they discover their wives are pregnant and they know they are not the father, gets angry and tells her to just let the guy who got her pregnant get the cherries for her. No doubt dejected and feeling rejected, Mary knows not what to do.

But then a voice cries out from within his mother’s womb.  It’s the voice of Jesus who commands the cherry trees bow down so that his mother may have something to eat. The trees do what any tree would do if ordered by Jesus, they bow down and Mary exclaims to the effect of  “Hey Joseph, look, I can get all the cherries I want, nyah nyah.” Joseph then realizes that there’s more going on than he at first realized.

Now in the Psuedo-Gospel of Matthew, Chapter Twenty, the story as one might expect, is a bit different, but the similarities are clear. In this version, thought to be the inspiration for The Cherry Tree Carol, Mary, Joseph and a very infant Jesus are in the desert in Egypt and are exhausted from the heat. They come across a date palm tree where they rest. Mary asks Joseph for some dates, but they are pretty high up in the tree and he whines about it saying that instead she should be concerned because of the lack of water and their thirst.  The baby Jesus orders the date palm to lower it’s branches and his Mother is able to eat.  Now the date palm, being humble and worshipful, did not rise back up after she had eaten, but rather it awaited Jesus’ command. Jesus tells it to rise, says it will have its place in paradise, and then he makes one more request of it – something interesting in light of the Quranic version of this story that I will discuss below. He asks it to provide water through one of its hidden roots and it does so – providing clear, cool and sparkling water for the three of them and their animals.

4. Many features of the Cherry Tree Carol and the story from which it is derived are found in the Quranic version of the story in Surah 19, verses 16-34. In this version Joseph is noticeably absent, an absence which highlights the miraculous nature of Jesus’  birth.  The angel Gabriel appears to Mary, who has gone away from her people for some sort of religious purpose,  in fully human form and tells her she will give birth to a son. She is astonished by this and asks how on earth that could be possible since she has never been touched by a man. Gabriel tells her that this is easy for God and that her son will be sent as a mercy to mankind.

So she is now with child and is driven to a date palm tree during the pains of childbirth, pains so severe she wishes she had never been born.  But then a voice cries out – said by commentators to be that of Gabriel though in my own view it could even be that of Jesus – who tells her that all is well and that water has been provided for her beneath her feet. He then tells her to shake the date-palm and that fresh and ripe dates will come pouring down. He tells her to eat and drink and “cool thine eye.” Lastly the voice commands her that if she comes across any man to say that she has vowed to speak to no one that day.

The next thing we see is Mary carrying her new baby back to her people who challenge her morality, as she had no doubt expected and feared. But keeping to her command, she said nothing to them and merely pointed to her baby. The crowd mocked her telling her that they could not possibly converse with a new born.  At this point, the baby Jesus performs his own version of “enough is enough” as he addresses the crowd in no uncertain terms telling them, among other things, that God has made him a prophet and that he is to be blessed wherever he is. He also tells them that he has been commanded to be faithful to his mother, something he clearly intends to do. No doubt the audience was dumb struck. . .

The new-born Jesus then closes:  “And peace be upon me the day I was born, the day that I die, and the day that I am raised up alive.”

Merry Christmas to you all,  from all of us here at Mantiq al-Tayr.

5. Now my favorite version of the Cherry Tree Carol can be found here and it is the one I linked to last year. But I’ve found another one, much simpler, that has some of the tuyuur here applauding. The singer sure is not famous, but there is something endearing about his style. Red Benson comes to the microphone on a winter’s day wearing a big cowboy hat and carrying his guitar.  And he sings for us, The Cherry Tree Carol.

Tis the Season for Treason

1. As an Irish-American, I ask myself, Which of the two is the greater Judas to his nation: the Irish prime minister, Brian Cowen, or the American president, Barack Obama?

The above quote is from Alexander Cockburn’s latest post on Counterpunch.com.  I have to say, also being of Irish descent, that I have often asked myself the very same question. There is no doubt at all what the Irish would say, this was made abundantly clear to me while I was in Ireland last summer.  Cockburn however does seem to favor Obama in the contest.

My view though is that it really is the wrong question.

2. We’re fucked.

3. That’s right, we’re fucked.  Talk about being screwed blued and tattooed. As a loyal American, I feel that I must report some extremely suspicious behavior to the FBI guys who read (and who do seem to very much like) this blog.  I mean, I’m just doing what it says on the Big Brother signs that are on our highways that say something like “If you see someone who looks like a Muslim please call 666-666-ARAB” or something like that.  Or maybe it just says to call if you see something suspicious – but maybe especially if it is a Muslim. Something like that anyway.  Anyway, FBI guys, some psycho-looking bitch is trying to get people to stalk me and no doubt lots of my friends and even your friends. Here’s the proof. Please have her arrested immediately.

4. Anyway, back to traitors.  This one is thanks to Mondoweiss who I think credits Jeff Blankfort. That’s a pretty good isnad. But I digress.

Anway —-

The Hollywood Jew this week brings up a pretty interesting one, one who has been featured in previous posts on this site about traitors, Haim Saban.  This guy is apparently tireless. He’s just come back to the east coast after raising nine million dollars for Palestinian victims of Israel’s murderous rampage in December of 2008-January 2009.

What! Of course I was just kidding.  Actually he raised 9 million dollars FOR THE FUCKING KILLERS.  I am not making this up, he just raised 9 million dollars for the Israeli Defense (sic) Forces.  Send one fucking worthless US dollar to some non-Zionist-approved Muslim charity and your ass is in jail, send millions to war criminals and you are a hero. Is this a fucked up country or what?

But is gets even better. (Note to Shas Party members, “even better” here means “even more fucked up.”) You see, Saban actually was raising money for the western chapter of the Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces. Yes, there really is such an organization and they have a real nice web site too.  It was a great gala and I’ll provide some quotes from The Hollywood Jew in a minute to show you that a good time was had by all.  But first, let’s learn a little bit about the Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces.

It is headed by a retired Israeli General who lives in the US named Yitzhak Gershon. He pulls no punches when he links the American Jewish community to the IDF. Red highlights, as usual, are mine.

I have always been proud of being Israel’s soldier, whether in Israel as part of the IDF, or in the United States as the National Director of Friends of the IDF. The bond between the community in America and the soldiers in Israel is extraordinary and powerful – it has changed the lives and created opportunities for thousands of IDF soldiers.

Turns out that the butt-kicking handed to the IDF by Hizballah led to Gershon’s retirement.

Anyway, the web site  informs us:

The Israeli government is responsible for training IDF soldiers and providing them with the necessary tools for their service. FIDF is committed to providing these soldiers with love, support, and care in an effort to ease the burden they carry on behalf of the Jewish community worldwide.

Their job is to look after Israel. Ours is to look after them.

In fact “Their job is to look after Israel. Ours is to look after them” is the motto of the Friends of the Israeli Defense forces. So this is an “American” organization that is solely devoted to the military of a foreign nation. And they do quite a lot for them. Among the many things they have done (the whole list is on this page)

• · 4,913 soldiers enjoyed seminars, workshops, discussion groups, and field trips through the FIDF Identity and Purpose program.
• · FIDF’s Sunday Culture program funded the attendance of 1,246 soldiers at concerts, art exhibits, plays, dance performances, film screenings, and lectures.
• · FIDF sponsored 37 SPIRIT weeks, enabling 19,014 combat soldiers to enjoy a vacation week at the R&R facilities in Ashkelon and Givat Olga.

You don’t have to be a USS Liberty survivor to consider this to be giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Now, I know what you are thinking. “Mantiq, can I give money to the Friends of the Israeli Defense forces too? Can I get a tax deduction on top of that?

Yes, goys and girls, you can give money to Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces, just like Haim Saban does, and since the Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces is a 501 (c) (3), the American  Taxpayers will finance it! Doesn’t that just make you want to come all over Monica Lewisnky’s dress? Here’s a link to the form.

By the way, the Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces have even got a deal where they can send you to Israel so you can cuddle up with the IDF care of the American taxpayer.

Anyway, the western chapter of the Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces sure did have a good time last Friday night. What a great way to celebrate the Sabbath.

The Hollywood Jew tells us:

“The event, hosted for the fourth consecutive year by Saban and his wife, Cheryl, was a lesson in how to throw a party. There was the astonishing entertainment (Andrea Bocelli), the better-than-average food (smoked salmon salad), and syrupy videos of IDF soldiers designed to tug at the heartstrings. All of which proved that no one else in the Los Angeles Jewish community is quite as deft at enticing others to take up a cause than the Sabans.”

Jason Alexander of Seinfeld was the emcee, must have been really cool.  Saban contributed big bucks himself that night and tons of others pitched in, really a lovely evening:

“FIDF western regional director Miri Nash, dressed sharply in a black cocktail dress that accented her long blonde hair, began dashing around the room with a microphone in hand, tossing it off to anyone who wanted to pledge more for the pot. A 17-year-old named Dominic pledged $1,000; another family gave $18,000 on behalf of the Persian synagogue Nessah; yet another family promised $100,000; and on and on until the final major gifts—$500,000 from Guess jeans founder Paul Marciano and $1 million more from his brother, Maurice—concluded an exceptionally energizing and effective philanthropic ploy.”

5. Scott Horton  of Antiwar.com is one of the better alternative radio interviewers out there.  One of Horton’s strengths is his ability to summarize complicated points in plain and often funny and satirical English. In honor of Scott’s excellent work, from time to time here at Mantiq al-Tayr we will post a brief excerpt of Scott doing exactly this. Today’s inaugural download, though we do disagree with the first half of the comment, is down right funny and very true – at least the second half anyway. Enjoy. (The excerpt is from his most recent interview with Phil Weiss.)

6. Okay RoHa and company, it’s time for your Arabic lesson.   The first time students of Arabic come across the formula recited in Arabic when the name of the Prophet Muhammad is mentioned they stumble over it repeatedly before getting it down.  The formula means “May God bless him and grant him peace” and it has a certain charm due to its rhythm, alliteration and assonance. Here it is in Arabic script and transliterated.  Note to Shas Party members, the first line below is the one in the Arabic script.

صلى الله عليه وسلم

Salla llahu “alayhi wasallam

Now, thanks to a UK based musical quartet called Shaam (basically meaning Syria), anyone can learn how to say this phrase perfectly.  I don’t think that this fine musical group intended to teach this when they performed the song below, but it sure is perfect for it.

Now the song is almost ten minutes long. It starts out slowly and there are two major transitions and I will give you the time hacks. If you don’t have patience the song really picks up at 4:20 and is really gorgeous as they sing the Madad portion of the song.  Then at 6:28 the song transitions and focuses on the Arabic phrase I discussed above.  Also, the verses in the song from this point onward are in English and are then framed by the Arabic.  The video is below. Here is another link to their site featuring photos of the group.

Listen to this song and sing along and even white boys with no rhythm will master it. Maybe a certain “Queen” should show this one to her husband.

Beautiful job gentlemen, beautiful job.

How Many More Must Die for Israel?

1. Hey goys and girls, this one is hot off the presses.   A little bird who says he works with Judas Assholange has leaked to us the hottest little piece of news of the year. It turns out that Israeli Vice President for American Affairs (IVPFAA), Barrack Obama, really does want to run for re-election in 2012 and therefore he has done something which will be announced before the end of the Judeo-Christian Hannakuh celebrations.  But thanks to our little bird, who also knows how to use a flash drive, we know what the IVPFAA is going to do.  He and some of his new advisors are truly going to bring us hope and change and they are going to prove it by having the Department of Fatherland Security release to all military and government agencies next week the brand new design of the American flag. Soon it will be flying over top all those buildings in Washington DC that you get to pay for and in all those 700 or so military bases we have around the world that you also get to pay for. And now, since you are one of the chosen elites who is allowed to read Mantiq al-Tayr on a regular basis, you can scroll down and see the new Stars and Bars, err, Stripes, whatever. Anyway, isn’t it a beauty? Gives me a chill.

2. I have a question: How many more people have to die for the state of Israel?

A little background discussion.

I have heard at least two pretty good alternative media types the past few months talk about an interesting aspect of Israel’s obsession regarding Iran’s ever acquiring even one nuclear weapon.   The theory, discussed months before the latest deluge of Wikiwitzleaks documents, says that Iran’s having a nuclear weapon would mean that even fewer Jews would immigrate to Israel to live on land stolen from the Palestinians and that in fact Israel might even have a net exodus some day if Iran gets a nuke.  And of course, this would mean that the Arabs, who seem to like to have sex a lot, being Arabs and all, would then quickly outnumber the Jews and then Israel would be like South Africa, etc, etc.  Actually, Israel would have to improve in order to become what South Africa used to be, but I digress.

Anyway, this sounds like a reasonable Israeli concern, right? I mean, if Iran had a nuclear weapon, why I’m sure it would just love to drop it right smack in the middle of Tel-Aviv because Iran, unlike all other countries on earth, is too stupid to think that Israel or the US would ever retaliate. That’s because Iranians are different, speak a funny language, and have an even funnier religion.  I guess the one good thing about all of this is that Haifa Wehbe does not live in Iran, though she shares that funny religion with the Ayatollahs, so if we did nuke Iran in retaliation for Iran’s inevitable nuking of Israel, at least she might be spared. But again, I digress.

Anyway, it turns out that the Wikiwitzleaks material just happens out of nowhere to confirm the theory that the Israeli government believes that when Iran gets a nuke Israeli immigration will go down and then the literally fucking Arabs will end up taking over. Juan Cole writes at length about this here.

In the course of discussing this position, Dr. Cole notes Israel’s immigration-emigration problem.

Natan Sharansky has admitted that the days of mass migration of Jews to Israel are over, and only 18,000 are likely to come in 2010. In one recent year, 2005, over 21,000 Israelis emigrated out, almost all of them Jews or ex-Soviets, and they had not returned by 2008. Because thousands of expatriates do return, there is not a net outflow at the moment, but obviously immigration no longer gives Jewish Israelis a demographic edge.

Of course, as even commenters on Dr. Cole’s blog have noted, maybe if Israel weren’t a racist, expansionist, violent, aggressive, war mongering state in the first place then maybe more people might want to immigrate there. But who the hell wants to serve in the military all the time and go around shooting Palestinian kids for sport? Well, too many people do of course, but for lots of Jewish immigrants to Israel, it is just too much.

This brings me back to my original question, this time slightly modified. How many more people have to die for the racist state of Israel, a state that many Jews find to be an intolerable place to live?

A little more discussion.

According to most reports, the world Jewish population is about 13 to 14 million. This report even has a nice graph and looks all official and academic and everything.  Wikipedia seems to be reporting pretty much the same stuff. According to Wiki, the government of Israel says that the population of Jews world-wide is 13.4 billion, oops, sorry, I mean million, it only seems like it’s 13.4 billion. But I digress. Anyway, the government of Israel says the figure world-wide is about 13.4 million.

Now, of the 13.4 million world-wide, 87% of them live either in the United States or in “Israel”.  Wow.

I have “Israel” in quotes because some studies distinguish between the number of Jews living inside the 1967 borders on the one hand and those living in the “occupied territories” on the other. For right now I’ll just use the combined figure of 5.8 billion, damn it, I mean 5.8 million, living on land stolen from Palestinians both inside and outside the so-called 1967 borders.  Yep, 5.8 million.  That’s about 42% of Jews world-wide. I mean, they don’t even have six million Jews in THE state created just for the Jewish people.  In the US according to Wiki, the figure is 6.5 billon, err, 6.5 million. Yup, so out of 13.4 million world-wide, 12.3 million live in either the US or Israel and more live in the US than in Israel.  I find this most interesting.

Let’s rephrase my question again. How many more people have to die for the racist state of Israel, when a plurality of the world-Jewish population already lives in the United States?

Now,let’s look at the figures for inside and outside the 1967 borders just for a second.

Inside the 1967 borders, the number of Jews is about 5.4 million according to this study and the Jews there make up about 76% of the population. So here you don’t not have a serious demographic problem when speaking from a strictly bigoted Israeli Zionist perspective.

Ah, but if you want to take the West Bank figures into account where a few hundred thousand Jews live – illegally, then the figures and percentages change drastically.  In the West Bank there are about 490 million, sorry, 490 thousand Jews – oh and Shas Party people, I am counting “East Jeruslaem” as part of the West Bank since making a distinction between EJ and the WB is nothing but a bunch of pure unadulterated Zionist Bullshit. Anyway, 490 thousand Jews in the West Bank. Sadly, those fucking Arabs live there too. Damn. Over 3.4 million of them. Oh shit, what’s a war mongering Zionist Jew to do? Kind of reminds me of the last words of General George Armstrong Custer “Holy shit, look at all those fucking Indians!” but I digress.  Anyway, if you add all those Arabs there plus a few in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, the total percentage of Jews in pre and post 1967 stolen Arab lands comes to be just 52.6 percent.

One would think that given the demongraphics (pun intendeded), the Israelis would say, “okay, we’ll take pre-1967 and be the majority” and just continue to screw the Arab minority out of their rights until they leave.”  But nooooooooooo, not these guys. They want everything. They want the WB too and I don’t see them itching to give up the Golan Heights either and I’m sure they are pissed as hell that Hizballah forced them out of Lebanon, they’ve always wanted a good piece of Lebanon.

So the goal is get rid of all the Palestinians some how, some way, and to keep getting Jews to come in and help steal more land. Are they really afraid an Iranian nuke would prevent this? Well, they aren’t so afraid that they will strike a reasonable peace deal with the Palestinians so I don’t think they are worried at all. Especially since, even if they are worried, Americans will be forced to do the killing for them anyway.

So, let me rephrase my question again: “How many more Americans will die killing people for the sake of the state of Israel where 60 percent of the world’s Jews don’t want to live anyway?”

I think it’s a pretty damn good question and I’d like to see the Eric Cantor’s of this world answer it.

3. I have another question. It kind of comes from all the brouhahahahahaha surrounding Wikileaks and whether or not the Wikiwitzleaks folks are some sort of Zionist tool. Lots of people think this and it is quite plausible. So let’s assume that the Wikishtizleaks thing is some sort of Zionist enterprise.  My question is:  Since the Israeli-related stuff that’s come out so far in the very tiny percentage of materials that have been released seems to support Israel and Israel’s desire for killing Iranians and all that stuff, are the Wikileaks folks holding back in the mass of stuff they have any cute little documents that could be used to blackmail US leaders?  I wonder if they have something on Israeli Vice President for American Affairts, Barrack Obama? After all, lots of this shit is coming from the Zionist-infiltrated State Department and gee, I seem to remember some scandal two or three years ago at State Department about some folks looking up Obama’s passport information.  Some guy even got murdered or something. Some company,what was it called, oh yes, Stanley Inc. apparently had two of its employees fired for doing things. Stanley Inc., just happens to “operate facilities for the production of United States passports.”  It does a shit load of US defense contracting too getting about two thirds of its revenue from the Pentagon.  You’ll no doubt be pleased to know that Stanley Inc. was recently taken over by CGI, a Canadian company that was founded by Canadian Serge Godin who is also its CEO.

Anyway, I’m just asking.

4. I have another question, this one posed to those who may go off to fight in another war for Israel.

And have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman’s mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears.
In our winter city,
The rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn’t care

From “The Streets of London” written by the great Ralph McTell.

5. Many fine musicians have performed “The Streets of London.” My favorite version, as readers might suspect, is by Liam Clancy. He was really something.

6. But I can’t leave you all on such a sad note again, well, maybe next time I will but not this time. So, in honor of TSA – hold on a sec – let’s all take a minute of silence as we ponder the depths of our souls looking for words that can truly express our deeply-felt gratitude and love for the wonderful things the TSA does for us. Here goes, hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! ha! And another ha!

Anyway, in honor of TSA, here is an old and very timely and very funny bit by the great George Carlin. (You know, everyone in heaven must be having fun singing with Liam Clancy and hearing George Carlin tell jokes.)
