Times columnists “constantly distort the positions of our government and ignore the steps it has taken to advance peace,” a top Netanyahu aide writes in rejecting an offer from the paper. “They cavalierly defame our country by suggesting that marginal phenomena condemned by Prime Minister Netanyahu, and virtually every Israeli official, somehow reflect government policy or Israeli society as a whole.”

In the rejection letter, first obtained by the Jerusalem Post, the aide says that of the last 20 opinion pieces published by The Times about Israel, 19 were negative.

The latest example it cites was a column last week by Thomas Friedman. The piece was so scurrilous that it alone justifies the boycott.

In the column, Friedman describes himself as a secular American Jew who cares about Israel. But his disdain makes it clear he doesn’t like the country. Worse, he crosses the line that separates opinion from bigotry.

"If asking a billionaire to pay the same tax rate as a Jew..."

Well Obama's antisemitism is perfectly understandable after being sabotaged by the dual-citizen slime-bag Rahm Emanuel.

BTW--Toxic right-wing reactionary clown Rush Limbaugh had a whale of a time with that one the other day on his idiotic radio programme...

Query: What the hell did  former CNN anchor (& Israeli Air Force veteran)  Daryn Kagan see in Limbaugh besides four Maybach Zeppelins to compensate for his incredibly small member...???

This is an important book for those who do not understand why Israel is a state that must always exist. And why it is a must, and a promise for Jews everywhere.

An estimated 150,000 mostly young people in Israel, both Jewish and Arab, protested Saturday over spiralling living costs and the economic and social policies of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The demonstrations—held in eleven cities, with the largest in Tel Aviv,  …

Holocaust survivors struggling to collect what they say is $20 billion in Jewish life insurance policies never paid by European companies scored a major breakthrough this week when members of Congress filed legislation allowing them to sue.

Whoever it was must've been right...right...? Exhibit A Is it Easter yet? Exhibit B I've been sensing a revitalization of anti-Semitism in America.

This is a free country. If Sarah Palin wants to run for president in 2012, she is free to try.

Atheists are an essential part of any free society. Humans without any conventional attachment to God(s) sometimes do great good. Dare I say, God's own work. Also, religious orthodoxy often hampers creativity.

Last week, Glenn Beck did extensive segments on his radio and television shows targeting his chief boogeyman, liberal philanthropist George Soros.

ISRAEL'S SUPPORTERS wield the accusation that Palestine solidarity activists who support a boycott of Israel are guilty of anti-Semitism.

CNN anchor Rick Sanchez was fired last week for calling The Daily Show host Jon Stewart a bigot and implying that Jews control the media. ("Everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart," he said, trying to explain that Jews are not an oppressed minority.) Setting aside the propriety of Sanchez's claims, is he right? Do Jews control the media?

Does anyone realize that the United States was just handed the ultimate Get Out of Jail Free card by the Muslim world yesterday?

Most forms of open revulsion for despised minorities have been banished from academic literature. But the academic campaign against rights for gays is proud about its descent into ever more virulent attacks on gay people and homosexuality.

One stream of the attacks seeks to prove that gays and homosexual are inferior. The effort has been lead primarily by ultra-traditional Catholic scholars that have attempted to create a "new natural law" that would support the traditional Catholic positions on sex -- that masturbation, all gay sex, contraception, all sex between unmarried adult straights, and oral and digital sex by straight married couples are all grievous sins. However,

Is the University of California taking a hard line, or has student dissent crossed the line?

Pat Buchanan, everyone's favorite MSNBC pundit, wondered in his syndicated column this week why Democratic presidents don't nominate white Christians to the Supreme Court anymore.

"If Kagan is confirmed, Jews, who represent less than 2 percent of the U.S. population, will have 33 percent of the Supreme Court seats," Buchanan wrote. "Is this the Democrats' idea of diversity?"

Should millions of Jewish Israelis be repatriated, forcibly or otherwise, to...where? An uninhabited island in the Pacific? A country carved out somewhere in Eastern Europe, with land donated by numerous nations? Where? Similarly, many Israelis want the Palestinians to disappear and are hoping that by treating them so cruelly, this will hasten their departure back to...where? To Jordan? Egypt? Bantustans in the worst geographical locations? Where?

It ain't gonna happen. Both sides are engaged in delusional thinking. The millions of Jewish Israelis will not disappear on their own and cannot be made to disappear by force, no matter how many decades are devoted to the task. The millions of Palestinians will not disappear on their own and cannot be made to disappear by force, no matter how many decades are devoted to the task.

The Lemba people are easy to distinguish from most other Zimbabweans - they wear skull caps, pray in a language which is a mixture of Hebrew and Arabic, and put the Star of David on their gravestones.

Their oral traditions claim that their ancestors were Jews who fled the Holy Land about 2,500 years ago.

It may sound like another myth of a lost tribe of Israel, but British scientists have carried out DNA tests which confirm their Semitic origin.

This News station has to the worse in history and its cowardly viewers should stand and put in its place. If the viewers allow Glen Beck to hijack a national day of fasting for Jews on September 28th.

BERLIN, Germany (CNN) -- Alleged Nazi camp guard John Demjanjuk was formally charged Monday with being an accessory to about 27,900 murders during World War II.

The Munich State Court ruled 10 days ago that the 89-year-old retired auto worker from Cleveland, Ohio, was fit to stand trial.

Demjanjuk, a native Ukrainian, denies any role in the Holocaust. He says he was a prisoner of war during the conflict, not a camp guard.

She says the only Jew she knew was Jesus.

There were no Jews around her in Bad Toetz, the West German village where she was born. No one talked about them. No one spoke about where they had gone or the war in which they disappeared, the war in which, she was told, her father died.
