The late Monday briefs

Seriously? I mean, seriously? They detained a sitting senator because of the TSA security theater bullshit? I’m not flying again until the TSA is gone. It’s not anti-Zionism: When an Islamic cleric calls for the death of Jews, and says … Continue reading

Briefs and then some

Intifada III, or testing the waters? Another Palestinian caught with another lot of pipe bombs. I think it’s the latter. Sigh. Cyberwar. Hackers striking Israeli sites again, and a retaliation promised. No good is going to come of this, and … Continue reading

Wednesday morning extra-sarcastic briefs

Countdown to MSM covering this discrimination in 3, 2, 1: An Israeli soldier was denied entry to a Tel Aviv club because he was wearing a kippa and refused to take it off. So, you think there will be worldwide … Continue reading

Thursday, briefly

Yeah, sure you will: Apparently, the Iranians think that they can close the Strait of Hormuz if the UN enacts any more sanctions against them. I’m thinking not, and so does the Fifth Fleet. And the Iranians think this is … Continue reading

Another Christmas at The Guardian

(This post is to balance somehow that other post by Meryl and tell you that all is well in The Guardian). Nu, what did you expect? Of course, some people celebrate, some people riot and some people just traditionally dish … Continue reading

Celebrating Christmas in Gaza and Israel

The Guardian is waking up to the fact that Gaza is ruled by an Islamic theocracy that doesn’t allow the dhimmis within its midst to celebrate their religion. There hasn’t been a Christmas tree in Gaza City’s main square since … Continue reading

Wednesday briefly briefs

Awesome. Talk about grist for the ZOG mills: Israel’s Home Front Defense Minister says that the U.S. and Israel are on the same page regarding Iran. Well, when American Jews like Tom Friedman are using the Walt/Mearsheimer Israel Lobby tropes, … Continue reading

Tuesday afternoon briefs

Keep it up, you’ll alienate the rest of America’s Jews: The IDF asked parents to “dress modestly” for a medics graduation ceremony. I have a lot of tolerance for the religious. I have no tolerance for those that would relegate … Continue reading

Thursday, briefly

Don’t worry, no one will hold them responsible: Think the New York Times will write an editorial on how Salaam Fayyad isn’t ready for peace? The time is not right for meaningful Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad … Continue reading

The Times’ moral equivalency on Gilad Shalit

Besides the media constantly calling the ransoming of Gilad Shalit a “prisoner swap,” there have been many irritating moral equivalencies, but none more egregious than this snippet in the New York Times. Both Israel and the divided Palestinian leadership — … Continue reading

Monday, briefly

Or they’ll frown in Syria’s general direction: The Arab League is giving Syria 15 days to stop murdering its own citizens. The vote was to suspend Syria from the league, and as you can see, even murdering over 3,000 civilians … Continue reading

Still another example of AP media bias

An American Christian tourist was attacked and stabbed to death while visiting Israel. The details are pretty grisly, and it was a big deal when it happened. But the AP didn’t even put the words “killed” or “death” in its … Continue reading

The appalling double standards on Israel and the Palestinians

This is why there will never be peace. Mahmoud Abbas quite plainly is insisting on never, ever budging an inch on Palestinian demands. No to acknowledging Israel as a Jewish state. No to resettling refugees within “Palestine.” No to land … Continue reading

Friday briefs

A good thing happened, for a change: Thank you, Jordanians, for being the sane Israeli neighbors. The call to replicate the Egyptian violation of international law and centuries-old treaties by protesting in front of (and attacking, of course) the Israeli … Continue reading

Tuesday morning news briefs

Yeah, but they have to have the ability to fire first: Turkey is installing new “friend or foe” software in its F-16s, the better to target IAF jets with. Isn’t it time for Barack Obama to have a talk with … Continue reading
