'Iran's Jews won't mark Yom Ha'atzmaut'
By JPOST.COM STAFF http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1209627032934&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull<http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1209627032934&pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull>
The Iranian Jewish community will not mark Israel's 60th Independence Day, incoming Iranian Jewish parliamentarian Siamak Morsadegh said Wednesday.
Iranian Jews in Teheran.
Speaking to Reuters, Morsadegh said this was in protest of Israel's responsibility for the "murder of totally innocent Palestinian civilians."
"We are in complete disagreement with Israel's conduct," he said. "We are Iranians. We have no relations with Israel."
The Iranian Jewish leader told Reuters that Israel's policies toward Palestinians, particularly Gazans, demonstrated "anti-human behaviour ... they kill innocent people."
Morsadegh went on to claim that Jews in Iran enjoyed freedom of religion and other rights. "There are no specific problems for Jews in this country," he said.

BBC has had some interesting footage from Burma / Myanmar regarding this cyclone. They are now saying the death toll will easily top 50,000 and there are about 400,000 missing, millions displaced.

Army Gearing up for SOMETHING?
This afternoon, I received a call from my niece in Texas. Her husband is in the service. They live near the base in an area where many other families in the service live. Yesterday, she received a visit from some kind of army personnel, as well as many of her girlfriends who also have husbands serving. From what I understand, this is what took place. She was given several locations as well as dates and times to show up for "commodities", as well as a location on base they were required to show up today. She said the area on base they were told to go to, she was familiar with, only this time, there were large tents set up, one of which they were told to go to. She told me her fears were she would be told her husband was going to be sent overseas, however this wasn't the case. She said they were told that they would be taken care of, and to begin to stock up on non perishables. They were given a voucher for what she stated were "large sacks" of beans, rice and other "non perishables". Also informed that generators would be provided. Times and dates to pick up these commodities. They were also handed out some kind of contract that the "spouses" of personal were required to sign. It stated they were not at liberty to share this information with civilians. Her and several others when asking about what is going on, they were told the Army takes care of their own. This took place in Texas. Anyone with any info please post...

Fifth quote of the day (Thanks EH):
(https://www.grasstopsusa.com/energyproductionact2.html)
Dear LaVina:
We're not just trying to get your attention! Make no mistake... the price
you pay for gasoline at the pump may soon rise to over $4.00 a gallon!
In fact, prices are already ABOVE $4.00 a gallon in some areas of the country!
Did you know that gasoline costs 45 cents a gallon in Saudi Arabia, 35
cents in Iran, and less than a quarter in Venezuela?
Question: Why does gasoline cost so little in these third-world countries
and so much in the United States of America?
Answer: Because Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Venezuela harvest enough oil to take
care of their own people, and WE DON'T!
Can we do something about it?
YOU BET! In fact, President Bush called for opening the Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) to oil exploration.
Geologists tell us that ANWR sits on top of enough oil to give us the
energy-independence we once enjoyed... Independence we frittered away through years
of cowardly kowtowing to Greenies and Liberals.
Conservative estimates by the U.S. Geological Survey confirm that ANWR would
produce at least 10.4 billion barrels of new oil!
So what does that figure mean to us ordinary folks who drive cars?
It means we'd have...
Enough oil to replace 30 years of imports from Saudi Arabia and 58 years of
Iraqi oil!
Enough oil to run the District of Columbia, our nations Capital, for 1,704
years!
Enough oil to run 29 U.S. states for more than a century!
Enough oil to cut a major chunk out of the $150 BILLION the United States
spends every year, buying oil from our enemies, who -- out of envy and hatred
-- hold us hostage and gouge us.
And here's the kicker: Some experts predict the ANWR yield could run as
high as 27 BILLION BARRELS!

Sixth quote of the day (Thanks Governor):
Associated Press
Mon May 5, 4:22 PM ET
An Iranian envoy said Monday his government will not submit
to extensive nuclear inspections while Israel stays outside
the global treaty to curb the spread of atomic weapons.
'The existing double standard shall not be tolerated anymore
by non-nuclear-weapon states,' Ambassador Ali Asghar Soltanieh
told a meeting of the 190 countries that have signed the
Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.

Hilary Leila Krieger, Jerusalem post correspondent , THE JERUSALEM
POST May. 3, 2008
US President George W. Bush is expected to soon sign into law legislation
prohibiting health insurance companies from penalizing individuals based on
genetic testing, a particular concern to Ashkenazi Jews, who sometimes carry
certain deleterious DNA mutations.
After 13 years of effort, Congress this week sent the White House
legislation forbidding insurers from using genetic information to set
premiums or enrollment eligibility and employers from using genetic
information in hiring, firing or promotion decisions.
The US House of Representatives voted 414-1 for the legislation on Thursday,
with libertarian presidential candidate Ron Paul (R-Texas) the sole voice of
opposition. Last week, it passed the Senate 95-0.

 

Woden's Day 2008-05-07:

Joke of the day (Thanks EH):
A father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished to see the bed nicely
made up and everything neat and tidy. Then he saw an envelope propped up
prominently on the pillow. It was addressed, "Dad". With the worst premonition, he
opened the envelope and read the letter with trembling hands:
"Dear Dad,
It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you. I had to elope with
my new girlfriend because I wanted to avoid a scene with you and Mom.
I've been finding real passion with Joan and she is so nice. I knew you
would not approve of her because of all her piercings, tattoos, her tight
motorcycle clothes and because she is so much older than I am but it's not only the
passion, Dad - she's pregnant.
Joan says that we are going to be very happy. She owns a trailer in the
woods and has a stack of firewood, enough for the whole winter. We share a dream
of having many more children.
Joan has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana doesn't really hurt
anyone. We'll be growing it and trading it with the other people in the commune
for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want.
In the meantime, we'll pray that science will find a cure for cancer so Joan
can get better; she sure deserves it!
Don't worry Dad, I'm 13 years old now and I know how to take care of myself.
Someday, I'm sure we'll be back to visit so you can get to know your
grandchildren.
Your son, Chad
P.S. Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at Tommy's house. I just
wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than the report card
that's in my desk drawer."

Fourth joke of the day (Thanks EH):
Saint Peter was manning the Pearly Gates when forty people
from Detroit showed up.
Never having seen anyone from the city of Detroit at
heaven's door, Saint Peter said he would have to check
with God.
After hearing the news, God instructed him to admit the
ten most virtuous people from the group.
A few minutes later, Saint Peter returned to God breathless
and said, "They're gone!"
"What? All of the Detroiters are gone?" asked God.
"No!" replied Saint Peter. "The Pearly Gates."

Quote of the day (Thanks Curt Maynard):
Schwarzenegger to authorize release of 30 Israeli prisoners YNETNewsMay 3, 2008 Itamar Eichner http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7...538953,00.htmlAttorney says leaders of California's Jewish community behind governor's decision to allow prisoners to serve remainder of their sentences in Israel. Ahead of Israel's 60th Anniversary celebrations, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is expected to authorize the release of some 30 Israelis from the state's prisons, thus allowing them to serve the remainder of their sentences in Israel, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Friday. California's overcrowded prison system was cited as the official reason for the release of the prisoners. The state's prisons currently house 170,000 inmates, about 77,000 more than they can actually hold. The gesture marks a shift in the policy of the state's parole board, which has rejected numerous pleas by Israeli prisoners for an early release. Mordehai Tzivlin, a defense attorney for the Israeli prisoners abroad and their families, said leaders of California's Jewish community were behind Schwarzenegger's decision................http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7...538953,00.html

Second quote of the day (Thanks Tony):
Churchill gleefully waged total war on German civilians as well as its military. When asked why he was not bombing more German cities populated mostly by civilians, he said "My motto is business before pleasure." --Nicholson Baker

County prepares to sue Diebold
Lab hired to check voting system
Friday, May 02, 2008
Joe Guillen
Plain Dealer Reporter
Cuyahoga County hired a nationally-renowned lab on Thursday to prepare for a possible lawsuit against the maker of the $21 million touch-screen voting system scrapped in December.
The county - currently shopping for voting equipment for the November presidential election - wants to recoup its $7 million investment in the old system, which is only two years old. The rest of the purchase price was supplied by the federal government.
Comment: I bet your first reaction to this article is... "At last! They are doing something about the voting machine problem!" Yeah...Well...But what are they doing? Are they getting rid of electronic voting machines? Nope. They just want different voting machines.
This is unacceptable. We can't trust any machine that can be programmed to change the vote count. And all of them can be.
We must get rid of ALL electronic voting machines. Only hand-counted paper ballots can be trusted.

Fourth quote of the day:
As you may recall, Abraham Lincoln spent much of the summer and fall of 1855 preparing to participate in the patent infringement suit that Cyrus McCormick, the inventor of the reaper, brought against John H. Manny, who was building closely similar machines. Manny's defense was headed by a team of leading patent lawyers in the U.S., headed by George Harding of Philadelphia, who considered adding a local Illinois attorney--Lincoln. Joining the defense team was brilliant Pittsburgh lawyer Edwin McMasters Stanton, who snubbed Lincoln by remarking, "Why did you bring that d--d long-armed ape here?" (Long, fascinating story, see David Herbert Donald's biography, "Lincoln," pp. 185-187.)

Fifth quote of the day (Thanks Curt Maynard):
For school officials in Haverford Township, the challenge was daunting: What do you do when a 9-year-old student, with the full support of his parents, decides that he is no longer a boy and instead is a girl?”So what do you think “school officials” did? According to Farrell and Sullivan, “The Haverford School District consulted “experts” on transgender children, then sent letters to parents advising them that the guidance counselor would meet with the school's 100 third-grade students to explain why their classmate would now wear girls' clothes and be called by a girl's name.”Parents were outraged, and wanted to know why the school sought to expose 8 and 9 year-olds to such deviant behavior... --Phila Inquirer

Sixth quote of the day:
Life is a collection of probabilities. Frequently probability tests produce a
more certain result than so called exact methods because the latter are more
prone to error.
Take for example the Fermat Primes. Before the advent of calculating machines
he conjectured that all numbers of the form 2^(2*n)+1 are prime. This is so
for n=1 thru 4. (3,17,257,65537) For n=5 the result is 4,294,967,297 which
was thought to be prime for a hundred years or so. Euler found that the
factors were 641 and 6,700,417. All larger results are thought to be
composite but no one has been able to prove it. Thousands of examples exist
but this does not prove the result. My money says that there are no more
primes in the sequence.
Another example is the Goldbach conjecture. It is that all even numbers
greater than two are the sum of two primes. No one has been able to prove
this in hundreds of years, although millions of even numbers have been tested.
Suppose you pull a shekel out of your pocket with heads up. Never look at the
other side and flip it ten times. If it comes up heads every time, you may
properly conclude with 99.9% certainty that it is a two headed coin. ([1-
(1/1024]=.99902) Turning it over will settle the issue with near 100%
certainty. Only a visual hallucination or turning it over twice by accident
will negate the result.
I will argue that the Pythagorean Theorum is not certain, although it is
nearly so. As you correctly observe, brilliant minds have missed the same
mistake in proofs many times.
The most certain proposition in life is that Zionism is the Final Solution to
the Jewish Question. Six million different and elegant proofs have been
found. Not a single error has been found in any of them.
--Donald E. Pauly
Zionist Rastafarian.

Seventh quote of the day (Thanks Hengist73):
Yet another onetime birdman supporter gets all girly and throws a hissy fit over a mere difference of OPINION. Unable as usual, to see the wood for the trees.
I am a hard core National Socialist, but it matters NOTHING to me whether or not AH had any jewish ancestry, for I judge him by his words and ACTIONS, alone.
Apollonian and his ilk, though, have a feminine attachment to their ideals, which evokes a wholesale and?irrational response to anything remotely critical of them.

Eighth quote of the day (Thanks Dale W):
The first clue to an entrenched white male bastion seeking a black male occupant in the oval office (having placed only five blacks in the U.S. Senate in the last two centuries) appeared in February on a chart at the Center for Responsive Politics website. It was a list of the 20 top contributors to the Barack Obama campaign, and it looked like one of those comprehension tests where you match up things that go together and eliminate those that don’t. Of the 20 top contributors, I eliminated six that didn’t compute. I was now looking at a sight only slightly less frightening to democracy than a Diebold voting machine. It was a Wall Street cartel of financial firms, their registered lobbyists, and go-to law firms that have a death grip on our federal government.
Why is the “yes, we can” candidate in bed with this cartel? How can “we”, the people, make change if Obama’s money backers block our ability to be heard?
Seven of the Obama campaign’s top 14 donors consisted of officers and employees of the same Wall Street firms charged time and again with looting the public and newly implicated in originating and/or bundling fraudulently made mortgages. These latest frauds have left thousands of children in some of our largest minority communities coming home from school to see eviction notices and foreclosure signs nailed to their front doors. Those scars will last a lifetime.--http://www.counterpunch.com/martens05052008.html

 

Moon's Day 2008-05-05:

Quote of the day (Thanks Kelly):
'Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a
well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways,
totally worn out, shouting, ' Holy shit... What a Ride!! ' '

Second quote of the day (Thanks Carl):
Convicted "DC Madam" Deborah Jeane Palfrey, age 52 has been discovered
dead in a shed beside the trailer in which her mother resides in Tarpon
Springs, Florida.
The cause of death has yet to be announced, but authorities are claiming
suicide notes were found and there is no evidence of foul play.
Palfrey had threatened that if her case was pursued, she would reveal
the names of high profile political and government clients who used her
services. Unless Palfrey had left behind such information with her
attorney, the identities of those high profile clients have very
conveniently died with her.
Palfrey's specialty was providing Sado-Masochistic male clients with
ladies of similar tastes. Her defense was that there was no money
exchanged for sexual acts, therefore no crime of prostitution occurred
unless engaged in without her knowledge. The jury didn't buy it, and
Palfrey could have been sentenced to a lengthy prison term.
[
Birdman comment: Carl apparently means that only beatings, and not sex, were engaged in. So if this case is a precedent, a father can get convicted for beating his brat if he happens to get a hard-on while doing it. (Like Mae West said, "Is that a pistol in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?") But then fathers can already be jailed for spanking, so, what, me worry?]

Sixth quote of the day ("):
Praying Passenger is Removed From Plane at New York Airport
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,351638,00.html
NEW YORK — A passenger who left his seat to pray in the back of a plane
before it took off, ignoring flight attendants' orders to return, was
removed by an airport security guard, a witness and the airline said.
The Orthodox Jewish man, who wore a full beard, a black hat and a long black
coat, stood near the lavatories and began saying his prayers while the
United Airlines jet was being boarded at John F. Kennedy International
Airport on Wednesday night, fellow passenger Ori Brafman said.
When flight attendants urged the man, who was carrying a religious book, to
take his seat, he ignored them, Brafman said. Two friends, who were seated,
tried to tell the attendants that the man couldn't stop until his prayers
were over in about 2 minutes, he said.
"He doesn't respond to them, but his friends explain that once you start
praying you can't stop," said Brafman, who was seated three rows away.
When the man finally stopped praying, he explained that he couldn't
interrupt his religious ritual and wasn't trying to be rude. But the
attendants summoned a guard to remove him, said Brafman, a writer who had
been visiting New York to talk to publishers.
The plane, Flight 9 to San Francisco, took off without the man. It landed at
its destination as scheduled, Brafman said by telephone from his home there.
Robin Urbanski, a spokeswoman for United Airlines, a subsidiary of UAL Corp.
with headquarters in Chicago, confirmed the man was taken off the plane and
put on another flight Thursday morning.

Why Western Civilization Rose
QUOTE
One of the great weaknesses in the work of race realist writers has been their failure to explain Western uniqueness. Why is it that whites and whites alone invented science, capitalism, democracy, and the idea of human rights?........ however, race realists have little to say about the enormous cultural differences between whites and Asians, whose average IQ scores are approximately the same.
The differences between Western and Chinese culture are too profound and persistent to be explained by historical accidents. Rather, there is plainly a difference in nature between the two peoples. I would like to suggest that the West's unique characteristics are, in part at least, due to the white race's capacity for humility. By humility I do not mean self-abasement, false modesty, or lack of self-respect. I simply mean the awareness of one's own fallibility and the ability to recognize when one is wrong............

Eighth quote of the day (Thanks hoaxbuster):
Nazi Germany deserves credit for that great technological miracle: the liquid-fuelled rocket engine. Robert J. Goddard, and perhaps some others, had been futzing around for more than a decade in the US without even one successful liquid-fuelled flight. In other words, Nazi Germany did it and no one else was even close. After the war, the Naval Research Labs got themselves the contract to develop and build the Vanguard rocket to put the first satellite around the earth in 1957. The result was a catastrophe. Until then, the Werner von Braun team in Huntsville, Alabama had been largely ignored, and deliberately so, except by the US Army which had let them develop the Redstone rocket. That rocket , put America into orbit.after the Soviet Sputnik. The later Saturn rocket (the largest rocket ever built) put more than a dozen vehicles into orbit and some onto the moon without even one failure. That technological miracle was largely the work of Nazi engineers like von Braun and Arthur Rudolf, both of whome were party members. Rudolf, the chief engineer for the Saturn rocket, was later deprived of his US citizenship by the Jews. Von Braun had died of cancer, otherwise he would have been expelled by the Jews as well.
Such ingratitude is only explained by the Jewish domination of the US. Such Jewish domination is growing steadily worse and will probably only end when the Jews have achieved utter catastrophe for this country. Even 9/11 taught America nothing--far worse is inevitable and necessary.

Good news from Britain
Not only does the BNP now hold 100 council seats (up from 84) but has also gained a place on the Greater London Assembly. And better news even the treacherous Red Ken has been kicked out as Mayor of London.

Protester with frying pan
Rioting lesbians have stormed a speech by "Born Gay Hoax" author Ryan Sorba on the campus of Smith College in Massachusetts, shutting down his address, according to two major pro-family organizations, Americans for Truth and Mass Resistance.
"Beware lesbians with frying pans (if you care about free speech)," AFT said in their announcement. "Lesbian activists at Smith College just couldn't stand by and let a young critic explain his views about the supposed innateness of homosexuality - so they stormed Ryan Sorba's speech on the 'Born Gay Hoax' and forced him to end it prematurely."

Thirteenth quote of the day (Thanks Governor):

U.S. GOVERNMENT, TALMUD MOCK NEW TESTAMENT 
By Rev. Ted Pike 
               The U.S. State Dept.'s Office of Global Anti-Semitism now says
the New Testament is a book of conspiracy theory! Yes, our government now
rules that the Biblical record that Jews had Christ crucified is not only
anti-Semitic; it's conspiracy junk. This step toward criminalization of
Christian beliefs directly threatens believers. It is also an act of blatant
hypocrisy: While the New Testament is derided as "hate speech," not a word
is said about the seething hatred contained in Judaism's most sacred book,
the Talmud.
            The State Department reports, "The tactics of many anti-Semitic
groups include the propagation of conspiracy theories. "Traditional
conspiracy theories" include the belief   "that the Jews are responsible
for the death of Christ."  For tens of millions, the New Testament is
anything but conspiracy theory! It¹s the written Word of God.
--Ted Pike
