COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

    4. End the OccupationFri Nov 08, 07:13:00 PM EST

      we need to clarify another concept: Israel.
      Although usually seen as residing within its pre-1967 boundaries, the Israeli regime exercises control over Palestinians in the occupied territories of the West Bank and Gaza.
      For the past 46 years, all residents within greater Israel have lived under the same regime, which claims to be the sole legitimate political and military authority.

      The state controls the territory between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, ruling over eight million rights-bearing citizens (75% of whom are Jews) and four million Palestinian subjects denied civil and political rights. Millions of Palestinian refugees (who were born in the territory or whose direct ancestors were) cannot set foot in their homeland, let alone determine its political future as citizens.

      War is violence pushed to the ultimate extreme (yet Olmert prosecuted a "limited" "police action" in Lebanon).

      Against a mysterious strategy the enemy must prepare everywhere (this is how Egypt got over the canal in '73).

      Know yourself, and pretend what you are not (that is, make noises like you really can take out Iran's nuclear enrichment capability without refueling tankers).

      Put on a show of disorder to entice your enemy, then strike. Encourage his cockiness with well-orchestrated false confusion (maybe that was Olmert's strategy in 2006).

      Leave an escape route to a surrounded enemy and they will retire (ie don't take out ALL the pontoon bridges over the Suez canal).

      Permit the taking of enemy booty as an incentive for your troops (and this includes booty hiding under burquas).

  6. CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (CBS Charlotte) - North Carolina’s largest insurer is having its share of problems with the Obamacare website.

    Internal emails obtained by WNCN-TV show that Blue Cross Blue Shield show that only 1,000 people had filled out applications as of October 15th.

    In fact, only one person was able to successfully use Healthcare.gov to enroll in the new exchange.

    But even that single person has not paid, which means the enrollment is not complete.

    The emails suggest the “payment re-direct option” on government servers isn’t working.

    Blue Cross Blue Shield found the entire system is so filled with glitches that the company decided not to upload data because it was afraid false information might enter its computer system.

    And the emails reveal a scammer was using the insurer’s name to try to obtain personal information.

    A person was making phone calls claiming to be with the “National Health Care Registry,” and falsely claim it was taking over healthcare reform contracts from the Blue Cross.

    BCBS spokesman Lew Borman told WNCN-TV the company is working with the government to solve these problems.

    “We’re hopeful that the issues can be resolved quickly so the Exchange will work seamlessly for our customers,” he said.

  8. Later, the secretary was surrounded by cameras and microphones as she met with hospital navigators, who were busy helping patients at Southside Medical Center sign up for new health insurance coverage through Georgia's federally run Marketplace.

    Southside is one of 236 community health centers that will share $150 million in new grants to expand coverage to 1.26 million more patients nationally. It’s also a place where half the patients are uninsured.

    The grants will help Southside support its staff of four navigators, the specially trained guides who help people through the process of applying for coverage.

    "There are eight people on the computer right now. All of them are up and running. They're all in the process of applying," Sebelius said. "So it's getting better. It's not where we need it to be. But it is getting better. I was thrilled to go into the room and everybody was on the system," she added, laughing.

    The massive computer system has been plagued with problems and delays since its highly anticipated rollout on Oct. 1. HHS has brought in a team of specialists and hired a private firm to oversee correcting the problems. They’ve promised to have it running more smoothly by the end of November.

    'The Lesser-Told Story'

    Sebelius also introduced reporters to two people who'd successfully applied for new coverage through the Marketplace.

    Among them were Michael Lappin, 44, and his partner John West, 49, who own a local mortgage company. They said they signed up for a new Humana policy that will jointly save them more than $5,200 a year over what they pay for their current policy. And that's without any financial help from the federal government. Their incomes are too high to qualify for tax credits.

    They said that their deductible will drop from $1,500 to $1,000 a year, and they'll get better coverage with their new plan. "I don't think we're an exception,” Lappin said. “I think we're the lesser-told story."


    'The Lesser-Told Story' continued...

    "I think most people who are getting into it, who are patient with it and not expecting a miracle, are having a good experience," he added.

    Sebelius acknowledged that . . . . . .

    The Vital Lesson of Kristallnacht
    By Bruce Walker

    November 9, 2013 marks the seventy-fifth anniversary of one of the most notorious and nasty crimes of the twentieth century: the "Night of the Broken Glass," when Nazi Germany engaged in an orgy of destruction and violence against those Jews who remained in the Third Reich. Jews were beaten and killed; synagogues were vandalized and burned; Jewish homes and businesses were pillaged and wrecked.

    The civilized West was horrified. Although Nazi contempt for Jews was no secret, the period leading up to Kristallnacht had been fairly tame. Anti-Semitic propaganda had almost vanished in 1936, when the Nazis were trying to impress the world with the 1936 Olympic Games. Germany had long been known as an orderly society -- almost a compulsively orderly society. Cold Pogrom, the title of a 1939 book by Max Berges, described the calculated and increasing pressure on a typical German Jewish family which led, eventually, to the death of every family member.

    At first, although this seems odd to us today, the Nazis claimed that they were simply trying to drive Jews out of Germany. The threat which the very existence of Jews supposedly posed to National Socialism manifested itself later. Those familiar with the history of the time doubtless recall the "Madagascar Plan," which involved the removal of Jews from Europe to the big French-held island off the coast of southern Africa.

    What is less well-known is that the other totalitarian regime, Stalinist Russia, also had its "Madagascar" for in Biro-Bidjan, a remote region of eastern Siberia which was calculated to be one of the first areas attacked if Japan and Russia became involved in a war. Stalin, as he approached his alliance with Hitler, gave orders to "Clean out the synagogue!," meaning to purge Jews from all senior leadership position in the Soviet Union.

    Hatred of Jews is always near the black heart of modern totalitarianism. Perversely, Imperialist Japan, which had almost no Jews at all, as Maurice Hindus noted in the 1940s, at the time "embarked on a campaign of anti-Semitism which in the virulence of its language is comparable to that of Nazi Germany. All the more extraordinary is this campaign because the Japanese know hardly anything about Jews."

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Imperial Japan also loathed Christians, as Baker noted in Darkness of the Sun: "The prejudice [of Japanese] brought out a virtual reign of terror where Christians were concerned[.] ... Schools were controlled directly by the Ministry of Education and its prefectural suborganizations and it was their definite policy to remove all Christian influences from them[.] ... Fathers disinherit their children who are converted to Christianity."

      Hatred of Jews and Christians united those vile men who committed the Rape of Nanking, the Holomodor (systematic extermination of millions of Ukrainians by Stalin), and the Holocaust. Nazi hatred of Christianity has tended to be overlooked -- I cover it extensively in Swastika Against the Cross -- and as but one example in documentaries about The Night of the Long Knives, Hitler's blood purge, it is seldom noted that most of the lay Catholic leadership in Germany were murdered that same night. Soviet hatred of Jews has been concealed by those who were too willing to accept Jewish support for Bolshevism despite the fact that Stalin clearly planned a "Second Holocaust" in the early 1950s.

      The vital lesson of Kristallnacht and the interconnected horrors of the last century is that Christians and Jews are canaries in the mineshaft of human behavior. This is very scary history for us today. The persecution of Christians today occurs around the world, and not just by Muslims or even secularists (Hindus, for example, persecute Christians in India today). Every day, somewhere, brave Christians are dying for their faith.

      The rise of anti-Semitism in Europe and the brisk sales of hideous defamations like the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion are a somber testament to this global sickness. This disease is so prevalent in some parts of Europe that incidents of clear anti-Semitism are simply no longer news anymore.

      Which nations are loathed most lustily by the adopted children of Hitler and Stalin today? Two nations alone face hissing from the shadows: America, which has the most devoted Christian population of any major nation in the world, and Israel, the only true homeland for the Jewish people. The voices of hatred come within America from men like Barack Obama, who are bitterly clinging to their atheism and statism. It is not even so much atheism as the Christian and Jewish principle of a Loving God and a Blessed Creator which drives Nazis, Bolsheviks, and their modern siblings to fury.

      If the world needed to be reminded of just what this means, it was reminded seventy-five years ago. We ought never to need reminding again.

    Hamas top dog: We'll expel or kill all the Zionists



    When Pamela Geller devised the ad above and we tried to run it in Seattle (in response to bogus "Palestinian" ads claiming that "Palestinians" don't have equal rights in Israel), Seattle transit balked, saying that the statement wasn't true. We then provided proof from statements by "moderate" Mahmoud Abbas and other "Palestinians," and the ads ran -- whereupon local news reports prominently featured a "Palestinian" activist saying that the claim was false. But now Hamas has again reaffirmed, as did the PA's Abbas recently.

    "Hamas Official: We'll Expel or Kill All the Zionists," by Dalit Halevi and Elad Benari for Israel National News, November 8 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

    A senior Hamas official declared on Thursday that his group intends to stick to its mission - “liberating” all of “Palestine” (meaning all of Israel).

    The official, Khalil Al-Khiya, stressed that Hamas will never give up on one inch of “Palestine”. He made the comments during a memorial event for five Hamas terrorists who were killed by IDF soldiers in Gaza last week.

    “This way (in which the dead terrorists acted) sends a message to the Zionists, according to which they have no place in the land of Palestine,” said Al-Khiya, who threatened, “We shall expel you from our land, we will fight on it against you, and we will either kill you or expel you from it after you surrender.”

    Al-Khiya praised the “resistance” in Judea and Samaria, calling on Palestinian Authority Arabs in the region to “continue the path of Jihad.”

    He stressed that the jihad is the way to achieve victory. The event was attended by top officials in Hamas, including the deputy head of its political bureau and Hamas’s Prime Minister in Gaza, Ismail Haniyeh.

    The statement by Al-Khiya follows another one by a senior Hamas politician, who earlier joined the call for an “intifada” terror war against Israel over Jews’ visits to the Temple Mount.

    Gaza Minister of Religious Affairs Ismail Radwan accused Israel of “raiding the holy Aqsa Mosque” and called for a holy war, according to Hamas’s Al-Qassam website.

    Each “raid” on the mosque brings a third “intifada” terror war closer, he warned, using the term commonly used by extremist groups to describe Jewish visits to the Mount. Any attack on the mosque is an attack on “the Islamic nation and its dignity,” he declared.

    In recent days and weeks there have been several calls by PA Arab factions for a new “intifada” terror was against Israelis. These calls have not been made only by Hamas, which rules Gaza, but also by the armed branch of Fatah, headed by Mahmoud Abbas whom the West calls a “peace partner” with Israel.

    Several weeks ago, Fatah’s armed branch, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade, declared war and announced that it would give the “green light” to terrorist attacks targeting Israelis.

    At the same time, the Palestinian Authority reportedly rejected recent calls by Hamas and Islamic Jihad for a “third intifada” in Judea and Samaria, saying it would “not allow the West Bank to become an arena for chaos to serve a private agenda.”

    We'll see.

      Dignity. The Islamic Nation uses its right hand to eat because the left hand is used to wipe its bottom.

    3. These events should make Jordan very nervous. The original mandate (1922) incorporated what is now the Kingdom of Jordan into Palestine. Arafat and company attempted to exercise this option during the Black September struggle.

      Neither Israel nor Jordan is safe from the terrorists.
