It is such a refreshing change to actually see the truth about the Israelis printed somewhere and with such an intelligent and genious slant/angle. Isn't that what the mainstream media would call this?

While I normally just toss out the New York Times subscription solicitations, this time I am going to send them a nice letter explaining why (Friedman and Israel coverage) they will never get my money. Maybe CC to Carlos Slim. Say, when are they going to "cover" Mexico the way they do Israel? Say never, and you would probably be right.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-80589468583171514842012-05-18T15:17:33.848-04:002012-05-18T15:17:33.848-04:00A typical example: http://www.guydelisle.com/jerus...A typical example: http://www.guydelisle.com/jerusalem/jeru-index.html<br /><br />It was published entirely on the italian newspaper not long ago.<br /><br />Fed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-82754720277222572142012-05-18T12:18:12.243-04:002012-05-18T12:18:12.243-04:00Whatever you do never use Thomas Friedman as a fra...Whatever you do never use Thomas Friedman as a frame of reference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-24356125358584535342012-05-18T10:13:48.005-04:002012-05-18T10:13:48.005-04:00All part of the expected results when the system d...All part of the expected results when the system demands equal outcomes as opposed to equal opportunities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-84811608620214922342012-05-18T05:55:19.116-04:002012-05-18T05:55:19.116-04:00OT/FYI--

I understand why a lot ofMuslims propagate this rhetoric: the reason is the Medinan suras replaced the Meccan ones; making the former (nicer ones) void. These included the covenant land of greater Israel and Jewish ownership of that land. I cannot understand why the majority of Muslims who don't know about the Mansook suras are not vocal on behalf of Jews especially when they know of Jewish return in the end of days, sura 17:104iish.<br /><br />Also their little ditties call for the ummah to make Jerusalem (al quds) the capital of the Jew-free, global ummah. WHY??? You won't find al quds, or even Jerusalem or "Palestine" in the Qur'an. As Mohamet changed the qibla so worship faces Mecca, surely Mecca is now the centre of veneration for Muslims.<br /><br />I really don't get christians who are Pro-pal in the first place, but also have their pro-pal conferences in places like Bethlehem and have their pics taken on the Temple Mount with the WAQF and not speaking out when they are told there is no evidence of any Jewish Temple ever being there! kate bAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-69808945921277399632012-05-17T16:34:52.136-04:002012-05-17T16:34:52.136-04:00Daniel

The most obvious examples being the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Gush Katif. <br /><br />Anyone with half a brain would have stopped and wondered why an entire people are being forced out of their small village. Jews being forced out of anywhere should have sent off alarm bells.<br /><br />This sort of thing isn't limited to the news media either. I've waiting for Globe Trekker on PBS to do a show from Israel. They finally did a few weeks ago. It was all about the Palestinians. <br /><br />The trekker visited a Palestinian community and focused on local foods. No problem. The host thought the food was delicious and kissed a Palestinian woman's hand.<br /><br />The others explained that she was married. Okay. Innocent enough until I plane flew overhead and the trekker joked, "There go the Israelis" as if the IDF were monitoring every mundane activity in Gaza. <br /><br />KeliataAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-83536584068205081482012-05-17T09:39:35.762-04:002012-05-17T09:39:35.762-04:00Excellent once again Daniel.
