Better than Nixon saying (as Vice President) "you won't have Dick Nixon around anymore" Of course he lied. Later he said "I am not a crook!" Again, he perjured. 53251

Junior Netanyahu’s strip club banter exposes father’s graft -TRANSCRIPT
Three twentysomething douches sit in an armored limo parked in front on a strip club. They're arguing about who paid for whose prostitutes. Benjamin Netanyahu's son wants the son of gas tycoon Kobi Maimon to spot him $115 because his father the prime minister just directed $20B his way. Someone recorded the conversation. The third douche, a playfriend hired by Australian billionaire James Packer to lobby Netanyahu's son, says "God help us if this gets out!" So they threaten to kill both the bodyguard and the driver. The driver who taped the conversation is being accused of indiscretion, not self defense. Check out the transcript below. Annotated. 52214
Israel blacklists activist groups which most threaten their colonial legitimacy
--SAYS ISRAEL. Israel released its annual list of political orgs which pose the biggest threat to their Apartheid colonial project in Palestine. Except -- WHO DOES THAT?! Who gives positive feedback to adversaries?! Rather, this is a list of the lesser effective pro-Palestinian campaigns which Zionists would like to see draw energy from the international BDS movement. BDS is universally acknowledged to be Apartheid's existential nemesis. Hence the regular legislative attempts to make it illegal. BDS took down White South Africa. This BDS is the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions campaign against Israeli Apartheid in Palestine. Below is the official "worst enemy" list, which avoids mention of BDS except where the omission would not seem credible. The list is divided by hemisphere. Europe is made to look like BDS there gets only a smattering of support. In the US there's no BDS group at all, until you notice they've relegated BDS NATIONAL COMMITTEE to "other!" HAHA! 52180
Nas Daily is Borat for dumb millennials. Israeli Hasbara with pseudo goy knave.
Mondoweiss has the goods on Nas Daily, but they're wise enough to let readers connect the dots. Let's do it shall we? Nas Daily is a viral sensation on Youtube. It presumes to trot the globe presenting a sixty second travelogue for a new location everyday, minus the travel time, location scouting, casting, shooting, editing, seeking permissions, and marketing. Admittedly the inanity of the content must write itself. 51872
Palestinian teen Ahed Tamimi jailed for slapping Israeli dragoons who shot her young cousin in the face.
FREE AHED TAMIMI. Israeli occupation authorities have arrested 16-yr-old Ahed and her mother, for posting a video of Ahed slapping an IDF soldier deployed outside the Tamimi home in the Occupied Territories. That act of defiance was apparently too much.
Give Trump some credit. Of course Jerusalem should be the capitol of a one state solution. Palestine.
OH BOY. It's Trump's most politically insensitive move yet, recognizing Jerusalem to be the capitol of Israel, as no other nation in the world will do because it means colluding with an illegal territorial claim. Moving the US embassy from Tel Aviv means giving official sanction to what the United Nations has declared to be against international law. Criminal insanity. But Trump wants to move the "Peace Process" forward and let's be fair, that sham has been a cover to keep shrinking the prospects for Palestinians, to the point that few dispute the eroded viability of a two state solution. So let's move this invasive "process" along. The sooner Israel crowns its land grab with a undivided Jerusalem, the sooner Israelis can be made to confront, and renounce racist Apartheid. When Israel's democracy is forced to grant equal rights to non-Jews, the theocracy of Israel will become PALESTINE. And America won't have to move its embassy. 51668
US & Israel leave UNESCO, cite its bias against heritage of invasive cultures.
The U.S. and Israel exploit UNESCO when they want academic cover to extend their authority over cultural heritage sites, to legitimize their spheres of interest in lands they don't belong. Now that Palestinians are poised to use UNESCO to protect and preserve their own patently obvious ancestral claims, in contradiction to those of usurpers, the bullies want to take their ball and go home.
The sad fall of the Jewish religion into becoming a mainly political text for turning out neo fascist robots
'It is hammered into us that the history of Jewry has been brought to an end and that Israel is its end point. Israel functions as an eraser of Jewish history, of memory, of languages, of traditions and of Jewish identities. Israeli politics is not only criminal against the Palestinian people. It claims to be the heir of Jewish history when it has misrepresented that history and betrayed it. Israel knowingly puts the Jews in danger wherever they find themselves. And it transforms them into robots summoned to justify the unjustifiable.' --This is an excerpt from a great commentary found this weekend on the Counterpunch website at 'The Avant-Garde of Islamophobia-Israel Against the Jews'
Is the Israeli Left any lesser invasive? Support Israelis who don’t live in Israel
Happening upon a Middle Eastern restaurant advertising itself to be Israeli-owned, I wondered, as a BDS-adherant promoting boycott, divestment and sanctions to pressure the state of Israel to abandon apartheid and illegal occupation, if this business fell under the BDS dragnet. BDS targets Israel and not just products from the Occupied Territories as moderates might prefer. At times BDS also focuses on prominent Zionist enterprises whether they be Israeli or American. Very likely these proprietors evangelize for Israel, but I thought a broader principle suggested itself: LET'S DO SUPPORT ISRAELIS WHO DON'T LIVE IN ISRAEL! Wouldn't that be precisely the goal?! But a word about other Israelis for whom BDS is asked to make an exception, the oft-celebrated Israeli Left. Are we supposed to be reassured that many Israelis do not support the ethnic cleansing perpetuated by their right wing government? What of the purported majority of Americans who oppose our continued wars and our drone extrajudicial executions? If populations cannot prevent the crimes perpetrated in their name, indeed the responsibility falls to who other but them, does their objection earn any points until they act?
US Global War On Terror finally drops pretense of not being war on Islam
We're AT WAR WITH THE ISLAMIC STATE! ISIS being not merely al-Qaeda in Iraq or Mesopotamia or the Levant, depending on who's spinning your translation, but terrorists bent on establishing an Islamic State in Iraq and Syria! Someone is going to get an advertising award for the ISIS brand, though it sounds like an episode of Ad Men pitching a concept for Get Smart. What exactly is the West's objection to an Islamic Califate? We already support the Jewish califate of Israel which has a regular record of far greater atrocities. If Americans are upset by the beheading videos attributed to ISIS it's because ally Saudi Arabia doesn't allow its frequent and similarly executed spectacles to be broadcast publically. Well, at least President Obama has abandoned the irrationality of a Global War on Terror, in favor of calling what critics have always known it to be, a War on Islam. When we're finally candid we can admit we are defending Western imperialism from the forces who oppose usury, exploitation and slavery.
Why IDF soldiers don’t wear swastikas
Forget the one state solution, or two, Israelis have earned a no state solution
It used to be controversial to call for a ONE STATE SOLUTION to end the fighting over Palestine. Israelis and their American Zionist supporters rightly feared that without bantustans to isolate Palestinians, Israel's Jews would become the minority and democracy would upend the legitimacy of a Jewish state. To be fair, that's not only probable, it's inevitable. But how cavalier to wait confidently as Palestinians continue to suffer reprisals and recently a teenager abducted and burned alive by marauding Jewish settlers incited by Israeli ministers calling for collective punishment and genocide. Nevermind the IDF air strikes burning Gazans alive. Yeah, maybe it's time to stop pretending a Zionist theocracy can be democratic, and stop pretending that invaders and occupiers want "peace". They want their conquest and human rights abuses left in peace. End this thinly veiled western colonial adventure. Palestine for Palestinians, not Europeans and Americans claiming a "birthright" that usurps a refugee's right of return.
UN disinviting Iran confirms Syria talks aren’t about peace but Western victory
So it turns out the "Syrian Peace Talks" were of the Mideast Peace variety: terminal consessions to an aggressor's demands, as per usual Zionist. The US has successfully pressured the UN to rescind the invitation for Iran to join the Syrian peace conference, apparently because Iran doesn't agree that a peaceful outcome must include President Assad's abdication. Does regime change sound like a fair and impartial solution for Syria, or does it resemble the goal of the Western nations who continue to back the instability? As usual, instead of pursuing peace, the US is talking extortion. NOW THIS: US expresses horror [that someone is vying to beat US record] of torture and execution --is what the headline should read. Can the US "express horror" at torture and execution, alleged no less?!
Israel wouldn’t know a “historic mistake” if it looked in the mirror
International diplomats have secured an agreement with Iran which appears to diffuse current tensions. Hurray! Crippling economic sanctions will be relaxed in exchange for limiting Iran's capability to produce atomic weapons. Everybody is breathing easier except Israel. Why? Is the Israeli regime worried that critics who want its Apartheid theocracy "wiped from the map" (actually, from the road map to peace) need a bomb to do it? Israel's racist and inhumane policies are bringing it down all of its own. Are Israelis worried there's now a precedent to ask Israel to disarm its own nuclear arsenal or face sanctions? The problem is more likely that a less scary Iran will be much harder to warmonger around. Who needs a pretend democracy in the Middle East if there's no Islamic boogeyman threatening the hegemony of the dollar and calling into question the inherent immorality of banking debt-perpetuated penury? What's rich is Israel, and its captive US press, declaring the agreement with Iran a "historic mistake". Because verbatim, HISTORIC MISTAKE is growing to be the consensus among historians, in answer to the question what-is-Israel? Google it.

If Syria could defend itself I bet you’d see American colors run like mad crap!
So there's a little good news as the ambush of Syria gains momentum. It's unlikely to be true, but let's indulge ourselves for a mo. It's being reported that Russia will jump to Syria's defense by attacking the Saudis, and that Iran would retaliate against Israel. Both developments deserved and overdue, but who's going to take the primary culprits, the Western colonial powers, to task? If anyone should bear the "consequences" of an illegal bombardment of Syria, the US surely has it coming. Would the US strike Syria if the Syrians could hit back? How our colors would run if, for once --it hasn't happened since 1812-- the warmaking reached our shores. Our patriot palor would blanche to ashen, I'm guessing into a full streak of yellow in no time. Must it take a Hannibal to march on the "Home Front" before Americans care enough to curb their dogs of war? Imagine it, the cretinous feudal House of Saud decapitated. They oversee Mecca, impose a repressive Islamic code on their populace, while engorging their family wealth and flesh like medieval popes. And Israel, that last colony of white settlers bulldozing over Palestinian land and lives, dismissing them like Native Americans
Israel attacks Syria! Surely Syria will be accorded the right to defend itself
It's the pretext Israel uses whenever it strikes Gaza or Lebanon or European cafes or US ships: the right to defend itself. In fact the right to do it preemptively is how Israel justifies bombing Iran or assassinating Iranian scientists. So where do the rights of others begin? Has not Syria a right to defend her lands and people against this unprovoked attack? Is Israel so cynical to pretend it doesn't have to declare war on its neighbors because it shares "most belligerent status" with all of them? --even, let's add, with half its citizens. Of course the US stands with Israel, they share a foreign policy of illegal, preemptive, and/or covert war. No doubt Israel has already calculated that Syria is in no position to retaliate. All Western powers knwo enough to only strike the defenseless. Apparently Israel has grown impatient with the Western-backed attempted overthrow of strongman Assad and fears the astroturf public support will wane before regime change is achieved. Assassination, covert coups, wars of aggression, used to be illegal.
First Colorado BDS Conference held in Denver to end occupation of Palestine
DENVER, COLORADO- The first Colorado BDS Conference on April 13 held on the Auraria campus in support of Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel to restore rights to Palestinians, end Israeli Apartheid, and end the occupation of Palestine.

Israel caught birth controlling the Falash Mura, ethnically cleansing Jews of false flesh tone
How's this for a Wikipedia item update? After five years of having denied the practice, the Israeli government admits it is secretly administering birth control injections to its Falash Mura population, reducing that community's birth rate by half. Falash Mura you may ask, translates to "horse of the raven" --consult Wikipedia if you'd like to see some champion dissembling from the racist imagery of that term-- and refers to the descendents of Beta Israel, or Ethiopian Jews, contested as improbably Jewish on account of their skin color making Semitic Europeans uncomfortable. Israel has very reluctantly offered birthright invites to their Ethiopian Diasporans. Israel's Law of Return is not to be confused with the International Right of Return, to which all refuges are entitled, which Israel refuses to grant Palestinians, the original and more likely descendents of ALPHA ISRAEL. But getting back to this breaking story on Zionist racism, it turns out Israel has been preemptively ethnically cleansing their darkies, no worse than the US does with ghettos, drugs, cheap guns, and the prison industrial complex.
The racist religion of the IDF soldiers
Copycatting the racist Christian soldiers of Nazi Germany in the past and the Far Right Christians in the US military of the present, the so-called Israeli Defense Forces sing and dance religious songs as they murder others of another race and culture. From the Israeli press comes this scene of Jewish racism and religious hatred in action... Video: Soldiers Keep Up the Spirit, Sing: We Rely on God
If Israel can intercept Hamas rockets, it can stop pounding Gazans
If the Iron Dome works, Israel won't have to retaliate after each Hamas rocket! These acts of desperation by the besieged Gazans, victims of Israel's occupation, will become like the rocks thrown by Palestinian youth, futile. Hopefully Israel will expand its dome of impunity to protect Gazans too, from whoever is striking at them.
What’s kosher for the goose should be halal for the gander
If Israel can threaten to attack Iran, without drawing the unanimous rebuke of the international community, then it follows Iran cannot be criticized for warning of its imperative to make a preemptive strike. Except that both would be illegal, the United States being the reigning serial aggressor at large. Or maybe you're of the opinion that Israel can have 200 nuclear weapons and Iran can't have one, or that if US and Israeli agents detonate bombs in Iran it's not terrorism.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pushes for Mitt Romney in US elections
There is nothing more outrageous than when a foreign leader of a small nation tries to interfere in the political process of another, far more populous country. Yet, that is precisely what Israel's government leader, Netanyahu, is trying to do during the US national election process. See Israel-US spat: A public row between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Obama administration.
Jewish leader advocates for genocide
The Islamic community is often accused of wanting to commit genocide against Jews, which claim when examined is more often than not a slander and a lie. But did you know that there are actually Jewish leaders who advocate for committing genocide against those of the Muslim faith? See Haaretz's website about this... Shas spiritual leader calls on Jews to pray for annihilation of Iran ...and how many US Christian leaders are there as well, who are also for committing genocide against people of the Muslim religion? I'm scared to even think much about this. 36759
More Jewish hate attacks in the news
Because of US and Israeli government policies of hate, and systematic efforts to destroy all of Palestine, Jewish residents of the Apartheid state of Israel are increasingly engaging in hate attacks on the Arabs they have yet to push outside of the boundaries of their hate filled Jewish supremacist country. See the latest incident... Israel arrests teen girls over hate attack on Palestinians. Though some of the perpetrators are getting arrested, the IDF (Israeli military) engages in these sorts of hate crimes against Arabs in routine and banal manner as a daily standard of Israeli government policy.
