Friday news briefs
That’s funny, I thought this was a war crime: Phosphorous shells only count when Israel uses them in Palestinian territories. When the Palestinians fire them into Israel, well, then they’re just desserts, or something. Israel helps Japan: Israel is sending … Continue reading

The immodest hopes of J-Street
Essential to maintaining the fiction that it is a mainstream Jewish organization, J-Street was careful to pretend that received support from many sources. We see this in a press release news story that appeared last year in the Washington Post. … Continue reading
J Street smears ECI: It’s all about lack of context
J Street knows that the Emergency Committee for Israel is hitting nerves. Joe Sestak has now refudiated signing a letter to Obama urging the lifting of most of the Gaza blockade. So what is J Street doing? Lying by omission. … Continue reading

J Street’s new 30 second TV ad begins with “While chaos and violence in the Middle East grow….†The ad then actually pretends to condemn “fear mongering.†This is a profoundly hypocritical path. I say “pretends” because clearly the opening … Continue reading
