Instead of a propaganda organ. It’s hard to do so isn’t it? Tim Blair reports on the amazing disappearing post about bombs that vaporize everything silently:
We have taken down the blog post The wounds of Gaza because of factual inaccuracies.
Funniest line in their Mea Culpa:
We do not endorse any particular side of a debate
Nice job, I’m sure the phony report will suffer the same fate as the phony Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
I’m glad I wasn’t drinking when I read that.
…but this story will just get you in tears.
Charles W. “Chas” Freeman, Jr., has been named head of the National Intelligence Council, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence announced this afternoon.
Martin (I love Obama) Perez is shocked shocked:
That Freeman would be chosen as the president’s gatekeeper to national intelligence is an absurdity. It would be as if I were appointed the gatekeeper to that intelligence.
And not only is the guy in the pocket of the Saudi’s but read this:
What the left is unable to do is defend Freeman’s views on China, where he unapologetically supports the bloody crackdown on democracy activists who dare protest in the streets of the capital, and Saudi Arabia, which as far as Freeman is concerned is something like Berkeley in the desert. The left spent years bemoaning the close ties between the Bush family and the Saudi royals — and it was a relationship that few on the right were eager to defend. Now the left can have their turn defending a man who is so closely tied to the Saudi Kingdom that in the weeks after 9/11 he wouldn’t even consider halting his business with the bin Laden family.
What did Perez say before the election?:
I have written here and elsewhere that Barack Obama’s views on Israel and the possibilties of peace between it and the Palestinians are both tough-minded and deeply comprehending. I don’t at all think that I’d be disappointed with an Obama presidency, and certainly not with his attitude towards the Jewish State.
And that was good enough for Andrew “clear eyed” Sullivan:
If Marty ain’t worried, ain’t nobody need to worry. Of course, Marty suffers from the same malady I do: clear-eyed understanding of what the Clintons actually are.
Hey I guess that 77% are leftist first and Jews second. Thou shall have no other Gods but liberalism. Glenn’s reader Patrick McNiff nails it:
It is kind of hard to get too exercised over his appointment as it relates to Israel in light of the following:
Barack Obama wins 77 percent of Jewish vote, exit polls show
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1034574.htmlAs Obamas favorite pastor might say : “The chickens are coming home to roooost”
Elections have consequences…
I still maintain to many this is a feature not a bug and I think this is even worse.
BTW I accidentally hit publish instead of “blockquote” which is why an incomplete post went up.
UPDATE: Gateway pundit points out that Andrew might have had a point about Mrs. Clinton:
Jewish leaders are stunned that Hillary is hammering Israel over Gaza.
It remains to be seen if this is Clinton acting or if she: vas only following orders!
…the rockets continue:
6:10PM: A short time ago, palestinian terrorists fired yet another Qassam into Israel.
I guess the bomb-the-smuggling-tunnel approach is not working so well.
5:30PM: A short time ago, the IAF struck some smuggling tunnels. I’m shocked, shocked I tell you!
11:12AM: Two houses were damaged in the Qassam attacks earlier this morning. While no-one was injured, some Sderot residents were treated for shock.
9:22AM: Today’s palestinian rocket firing shenanigans have begun, with 2 Qassams hitting Israel.
IAF smuggling tunnel strikes to begin later.
The money flows foolishly:
Israel recently approved the transfer of NIS 175 million ($41.8 million) in order to pay the salaries of Fatah government workers in Gaza, but Ynet learned Thursday night that about half of the funds were used to compensate residents whose houses were damaged by Israel Defense Forces fire during Operation Cast Lead.
Ten days after the money was transferred, not one penny has been deposited in the Palestinian Authority workers’ bank accounts in Gaza.
And Israellcool is shocked shocked! (Well not really)
In the words of Industry, Trade and Labor Minister Eli Yishai:
“The pathetic desire to create a partner on the Palestinian side has led to an absurd and shocking situation, in which the State of Israel is compensating the Palestinians for Operation Cast Lead before transferring funds to compensate the residents of southern Israel.”
What makes this even more absurd and shocking is that many of the homes damaged during Operation Cast Lead belonged to terrorists or terror-enablers.
Hey don’t worry Israel, our President will provide the next 900 Million.
Just a reminder anyone who thinks that the rockets have stopped isn’t paying attention. I’m waiting to hear about the pacifist left forming a group of human shields to protect Sderot. Anyone? Bueller, Bueller.
