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."

Cornell West calls Netanyahu for what he is: a criminal




In the largest mobilization in solidarity with Palestine in many years, tens of thousands from all across the country converged in Washington, D.C., for a rally and march to protest the ongoing massacre in Gaza and the U.S. government's support for Israeli war crimes. The massive demonstration received wide media coverage, and is further proof that the world is uniting for Palestine. Below are just some of the reports.
ABC News: Large Gaza Protest Forms Outside White House

WASHINGTON — A pro-Palestinian rally and march on the White House drew thousands today, turning Pennsylvania Avenue and Lafayette Square, the park opposite the White House, into a sea of demonstrators.

Waving Palestinian flags, chanting, “Free free Palestine” and “five, six, seven, eight, Israel is an apartheid state,” and holding signs that read “Free Palestine, Let Gaza Live,” the demonstrators gathered around a small stage in the park and eventually marched down Pennsylvanian Ave.

Washington Post: Thousands from across country protest in support of Palestinians near White House

A demonstration drew thousands to the White House and the streets of downtown Washington on Saturday afternoon as participants from across the country called for an end to the continued violence between Israel and Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

“Free, free Palestine, killing children is a crime,” the crowd chanted, several holding Palestinian flags, cardboard boxes decorated as coffins and posters with graphic images of the wounded.

  1. <<<>>>West has been involved with such projects as the Million Man March and Russell Simmons's Hip-Hop Summit, and worked with such public figures as Louis Farrakhan[11] and Al Sharpton, whose 2004 presidential campaign West advised.[50]

    In 2000, West worked as a senior advisor to Democratic presidential candidate Bill Bradley. When Bradley lost in the primaries, West became a prominent endorser of Ralph Nader, even speaking at some Nader rallies. Some Greens sought to draft West to run as a presidential candidate in 2004. West declined, citing his active participation in the Al Sharpton campaign. West, along with other prominent Nader 2000 supporters, signed the "Vote to Stop Bush" statement urging progressive voters in swing states to vote for John Kerry, despite strong disagreements with many of Kerry's policies.[51]

    In April 2002 West and Rabbi Michael Lerner performed civil disobedience by sitting in the street in front of the U.S. State Department "in solidarity with suffering Palestinian and Israeli brothers and sisters." West said, "We must keep in touch with the humanity of both sides."[52][53] In May 2007 West joined a demonstration against "injustices faced by the Palestinian people resulting from the Israeli occupation" and "to bring attention to this 40-year travesty of justice". In 2011, West called on the University of Arizona to divest from companies profiting from the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian Territories.[54]<<<>>>

    Heh, he hung out with 'Rabbi' Michael Lerner, who was the guy at the U of Washington who was always preaching solidarity with the Viet Cong and the overthrow of the US Government. Finally arrested for blowing some shit up, he turned state's evidence against 'the brothers and sisters' and later went into the Rabbi business.

    This place is great for humor, I will tell you that.

    The line up of witnesses for the suffering Palestinians who want to genocide Israel, and later kill you, dear reader, is a continual source of laughter to me.

  3. Prof West is passionate about the annihilation of the palestinians.

    1.8 MILLION Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, 50% under the age of 10.

    Sounds like a WHOLE lot of humping going on. Why are there so many Palestinians? I thought the Gazans were starved, inside a giant prison whose food and calories are controlled by the NASI Israelis?

    And yet?

    They have billions and billions of dollars to build Gaza City full of high rises? Complete with thousands and thousands of underground tunnels for both bringing in goods and weapons and tunnels built, at a high cost, into Israel for one purpose, kill Jews.

    They cry for Freedom for Palestinians, Justice for Palestinians and of course "Stop the Occupation" for the Palestinians.

    But Freedom, Justice and Liberty, (end to occupation of Palestininas) is not a license to re-arm, re-supply and prepare to murder Israelis.

    Until the Palestinians embrace the idea of BUILDING their own society, rather than destroying Israel there will be no peace.

    As long as folks like Prof West call the very creation of the Jewish state "occupation"? there will be no peace.

    It's comical to watch Prof West cry for the dead civilians babies of Palestine. Screeching about value of life. Right in the middle of Washington DC, where Black Babies are aborted faster than you can buy a fresh order of McDonalds, Margaret Sanger would be proud. Standing in Occupied Washington DC on stolen Native American lands, an AFRICAN dares to call Palestine "occupied"

    Let's ask the obvious.

    What RIGHT does a BLACK man have to speak of occupation when he has an ENTIRE continent to live in?

    And YET Prof West, squats on Native American lands!

    All blacks need to leave the Americas at once and go BACK to the BLACK lands where they are natives...

    Stop the occupation.....

    I guess that should mean for everyone right? Or just Israelis?

    Blacks are not NATIVE to this nation....

    And for that matter neither is Deuce, Rat or Quirk!

    By what right do you have to call for Israel to "stop the occupation" when you yourself are OCCUPYING someone else's lands?

  6. CRIMINAL

    As well as the heavy death toll, with more than 1,800 people killed so far within Gaza, an estimated 9,000 others have been injured. This AFP story gives a grim picture of the extent of the injuries faced by many of these:

    Lying on his bed in a Gaza hospital, three-year-old Yamin now sees the world from behind burns which have disfigured him for life.

    The tiny boy is just one of hundreds of burn victims and those wounded by Israeli shell fire overwhelming Gaza’s sole working operating theatre for plastic surgeons.

    He also has burns on his back and multiple fractures suffered when an Israeli strike decimated his family and destroyed their home in Al-Buraj, central Gaza, last week.

    It was the evening. The start of Eid al-Fitr, the festival marking the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

    In a single strike, the house was turned to rubble and 19 people lay dead. Yamin, miraculously, was the sole survivor but he was left an orphan and badly burnt.

    He was taken to a clinic then rapidly transferred to the burns department at the Shifa hospital in Gaza, where he cries, lying naked, and where a handful of surgeons are now confronted with the endless horrors of the war...

    “There are very few light injuries in this war,” says Ghassan Abu Sitta, a plastic surgeon from the American University of Beirut, sent a week ago by the Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) organisation to help out in Gaza.

    “My feeling is around 70% would have some kind of permanent deformity, either in terms of scarring or in terms of functional deformity... They will never be the same again.”

    His worst case? “An 8 year-old boy who basically lost half of his face including one eye and lost the other eye with shrapnel in. What I needed to do is reconstruct the face just to cover the wounds.

    “The eyes are lost. He lost all his family, his ability to care for himself has been completely destroyed. There is no future for him, he keeps asking why they have turned the lights off.”

    2. Three key features characterize Israeli apartheid:

      • Four million Palestinians in the Occupied Territories lack the right to vote for the government that controls their lives through a military occupation.

      In addition to controlling the borders, air space, water, tax revenues, and other vital matters pertaining to the Occupied Territories,
      Israel alone issues the identity cards that determine the ability of Palestinians to work and their freedom of movement.


      • About 1.2 million Palestinian Israelis, who make up 20 percent, or one-fifth, of Israel’s population, have second-class citizenship within Israel, ...
      ... which defines itself as a Jewish state rather than a state for all its citizens.

      More than 20 provisions of Israel’s principal laws discriminate, either directly or indirectly, against non-Jews, according to Adalah: The Legal Center for Minority Rights in Israel.

      Millions of Palestinians remain refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and elsewhere, unable to return to their former homes ...
      ... and land in present-day Israel.

      Even though the right of return for refugees is enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

  7. What the speech brings to my mind is:

    What defines "occupation"? Is this standard ONLY applied to Israel?

    Do the land holdings of England, France, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, China all also have to be examined and "freed"?

    Deuce alluded to it the other day, stating that the USA will have to "give up" the SW portion of America one day.

    Does this also apply to the Iranians? To the Arab world?

    Should all arabs and blacks be deported FROM America and Europe back to their homelands?

    By what right do the english and irish have to LIVE in the Americas?

    Iraqi air force comes to the aid of beleaguered Kurds
    By Rick Moran

    Iraqi Prime Minsiter Nouri al-Maliki has dispatched his air force to the north to assist Kurdish Peshmerga fighters in their attempt to fend off a strong offensive by the Islamic State.

    Three towns, an oil field, and a major dam were lost over the weekend as Kurdish forces were sent flying by the increasingly well armed and well equipped Islamic State forces. The tough little Kurdish army was thought to be the only force in Iraq capable of standing up to the terrorists in battle.

    Such has proved not to be the case.

    Reuters:

    Maliki seems to have put aside his hostility with the Kurds for now to try to prevent the Islamic State, which has threatened to march on Baghdad, from making further gains.

    "The general commander of the armed forces has ordered the air force command to provide backup for the Kurdish peshmerga forces against the terrorist gangs of the Islamic State," state television quoted Maliki's military spokesman Qassim Atta as saying.

    A senior Kurdish official said the Kurds had been overstretched and the Islamic State had overwhelming firepower.

    "The Islamic State had also been intimidating people by carrying out beheadings," he said.

    After thousands of Iraqi soldiers fled their initial advance in June, the group then known as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) seized tanks, armoured personnel carriers, anti-aircraft guns, mortars, artillery and vehicles.

    "It is a very dangerous situation for the region. Something needs to be done soon," said the senior Kurdish official, asking not to be identified.

    Despite the odds, Kurdish commanders were talking tough.

    One colonel said the Kurdish withdrawal was tactical and forecast that several Kurdish brigades would take back all territory lost on Sunday and even win back Mosul, Iraq's biggest northern city which is firmly in the hands of the Islamic State.

    "We will attack them until they are completely destroyed we will never show any mercy," he told Reuters. "We have given them enough chances and we will even take Mosul back. I believe within the next 48-72 hours it will be over."

    The Peshmerga is a tough little army of around 200,000 who are well trained and well equipped. That they are running from the forces of the Islamic State shows how there is very little chance for the Iraqi army - even with superior numbers - to confront the terrorists in battle.

    The Kurds may retake lost territory with the help of Iraqi fighter jets, but it's an open question whether they can hold it by themselves. With Islamic State forces displaying surprising military strength, the Kurds may want to rethink their decision to withdraw from the Iraq government. Perhaps only a coordinated effort of the Peshmerga and Iraqi army can win back the north and drive Islamic State back into Syria.

    Montana papers call for Walsh to end Senate campaign

    By Cameron Joseph

    Greg Nash

    Two of Montana's largest papers are calling on Sen. John Walsh (D-Mont.) to end his election bid following revelations he plagiarized much of his Army War College final paper.

    The Billings Gazette and the Missoulian both blasted Walsh in their Sunday op-eds, calling for Walsh to suspend his campaign.

    "Having repeatedly said that he wants to do the honorable thing, Walsh should stop campaigning and do his utmost to serve Montanans well in the remainder of his brief Senate appointment. That is the honorable course," writes the Gazette's editorial board. "We call on Walsh to devote all his time to serving as U.S. senator and bag the campaigning."

    The Missoulian went a step farther, suggesting that he could also immediately resign.

    "Walsh could resign his Senate seat immediately. [Gov. Steve] Bullock could then appoint a temporary replacement who isn’t running for election, as many Montanans had hoped he would do earlier this year, before he went with Walsh. That replacement could see that the legislation Walsh supported received continued support," writes the Missoulian's editorial board.

    "But if Walsh doesn’t do that, at a minimum, he should drop out of the Senate race. He has until Aug. 11 to do so and get his name removed from the ballot, which would allow the Montana Democratic Party to name a replacement candidate by Aug. 20 — just in time to make sure that candidate’s name appears on the ballot," that paper continues.

    The calls are the latest sign that Walsh is a dead man running in the wake of his plagiarism scandal. Walsh, who was appointed to the Senate earlier this year, was already facing an uphill battle, and it's almost impossible to see how he bounces back against Rep. Steve Daines (R-Mont.) following the blowback from the scandal.

    There have been several truces called during the conflict but few have lasted, with each side accusing the other of violations.

  16. At Mount Sinai, David Reich, the hospital president, said officials had been in touch with experts at Emory in the event the New York facility also found itself treating Ebola. There is no cure or vaccine, and the disease kills more than half the people it infects.

    ...

    Ebola, which has an incubation period of two to 21 days, is only contagious when a person is symptomatic. The man was the first person to be tested at Mount Sinai for the disease.

    If the tests came back positive for Ebola, Reich said the man could be treated at Mount Sinai. “We believe we have all the necessary facilities to treat any patient with Ebola disease,” he said.

  19. <<<>>>No other country has to defend itself against terrorists, defend its people’s right to defend themselves against terrorists and also defend its right to exist at all.

    It goes like this:

    “I don’t like what Israel is doing in Gaza.”

    “What was Israel supposed to do, keep accepting rocket fire at its cities?”

    “If someone took my land, I’d fire rockets, too.”

    Simple as that. The line excuses Palestinians for trying to kill Jews and, at the same time, delegitimizes Israel.

    Plenty of American Jews support Israel but think the Gaza ground invasion was unwise. But how can they say so, when they’re too busy arguing that no, Israel didn’t steal land from the Palestinians, yes, Jews have lived in the land now called Israel for thousands of years, and so on?

    When every discussion has to go back to 70 AD and the burning of the Second Temple, or even before, you can’t even get close to a rational discussion of what’s going on now.<<<>>>

  23. Over the weekend, an American physician infected with Ebola was brought to the United States from Africa. He was being treated in Atlanta.

    ...

    Health officials say the threat to Americans at home remains relatively small. But border patrol agents at airports in New York and Washington have been told to ask travelers about possible exposure to the virus and to be on the lookout for anyone with a fever, a headache, achiness, a sore throat, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain, a rash or red eyes.

    While the CDC says it is not screening passengers boarding planes at African airports -- the job of local authorities there -- it said it has encouraged vulnerable countries to follow certain precautions. Outbound passengers in the countries experiencing Ebola are being screened for fevers and with health questionnaires.

  24. Americans support Israel and the press hates it

    posted at 3:21 pm on August 4, 2014 by Noah Rothman



    One gets the impression that America’s broad support for Israel’s mission in Gaza over that of Hamas militants, support reflected in policy in Washington, is evolving into an obsession for members of the press. In fact, it seems that the more stubbornly Americans cling to their support for their country’s democratic ally in the Middle East, the more frenetic and scolding the media’s tone has become while covering the conflict.

    Over a month into the current crisis, a NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll found that a significant plurality continue to sympathize with Israel over Palestinians. 43 percent of Americans said they back Israel compared to just 14 percent who claim to support Palestinians generally. This is, however, misleading as Israel’s current conflict is not with the Palestinian Authority but with Hamas – the ruling faction in Gaza. Unsurprisingly, Americans are even less friendly toward this group which the U.S. State Department lists as a terrorist organization. Only 7 percent of Americans told NBC/WSJ pollsters that they back Hamas while 54 percent support Israel.

    America’s sentiments are not unfounded or chauvinistic display of support for a historic ally. In spite of being lectured endlessly by the American government to expend even more energy in order to limit civilian casualties in Gaza, Israel’s rules of engagement are far more self-limiting and crippling than any to which the U.S. would agree to abide by.

    Front Page Magazine quotes a report which summarizes the extensive lengths to which the Israeli Defense Forces go in order to limit civilian casualties, often resulting in decreased operational capacity and IDF casualties.

    Testimony that is reaching us from fighter pilots who provide close air assistance to the combat soldiers who are currently fighting in the field,” Channel 2′s military correspondent Nir Dvori reported, “about growing frustration over the fact that they hear the forces below them on the ground asking for cover and close air support when they see the terrorists drawing near from short range, firing at them, and there is no approval, because of various limitations, so as not to hit innocent civilians, and out of concern not to hit uninvolved people, and for this reason they cannot always give covering fire, cannot always fire, and so the frustration is that to some extent, they are leaving the fighters on their own to fight on the ground…”

    Ynet’s veteran defense analyst Ron Ben Yishai reported that one of the reasons that Hamas was prepared to face Israeli ground troops in the Shejaiya neighborhood, where IDF suffered 13 killed in one day of fighting, is that the residents were given ample advance notice of the IDF’s intent to enter the neighborhood.

    1. IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz took pride in the fact that the IDF takes such care to notify residents of its attack plans. “We cannot agree for Hamas to place civilians in our path,” he said earlier this week. “So what we have done is to warn the civilians over and over again to evacuate. There are no armies like this, which drop leaflets, call on the phone, bomb next to the target or carry out a ‘knock on the roof,’ and even disperse the residents with smoke.

      The press has been broadcasting all of this. Anyone who has watched an evening news report in the last month has likely seen the “knock on the roof” warning strikes and the leafleting which occurs before a surgical Israeli munition levels a single structure while leaving the surrounding buildings standing.

      Occasionally, a few Americans will see a familiar face – like Hamas spokesman Osama Hamdan who recently appeared on CNN with anchor Don Lemon in support of the terror group ruling Gaza – saying things in Arabic which Americans recognize as barbaric anti-Semitism.

      Take, for example, this clip of Hamdan appearing on the Lebanon-based al-Quds television network last week. “We all remember how the Jews used to slaughter Christians, in order to mix their blood in their holy matzos,” he noted.

      America’s collective memory of such tales must have faded in the intervening centuries.

      This is not to say that Israel is infallible, or that there have been no errors in judgment or unpleasantness in this conflict. Not every piece of ordnance Israel uses is precision, and Hamas is often successful in its efforts to put civilians in the line of Israeli fire. War is horrible, and it is a utopian dream to suggest that all atrocities resulting from combat can be prevented.

    2. While America’s support for the Israeli cause is solid, the opposite appears to be true in Europe where anti-Semitic riots have become a regular feature of life in Western European nations like Germany, France, and England. In the American media, too, one gets the sense that America’s close intergovernmental relationship with Israel is a source of endless consternation.

      Take, for example, the media landscape in just the last several days.

      Vox.com’s Zack Beauchamp expressed his concern over the fact that the White House is unlikely to follow up their harsh scolding of Israel for striking a U.N. school in Gaza (institutions that the U.N. has conceded Gazans have used as weapons depots) with concrete actions aimed at isolating the Middle East’s only democracy in international institutions.

      “As harsh as the administration’s language has been in the past few days, it’s hardly been backed up by any meaningful public action pressuring Israel,” Beauchamp wrote. “There’s zero indication that the US is going to take tangible steps to punish Israel, either by limiting defense cooperation or letting through a UN Security Council resolution condemning Israel’s conduct in the Gaza war.”

      On Monday, CNN’s Chris Cuomo buffeted State Dept. spokeswoman Jennifer Psaki with questions about America’s military support for Israel, going so far as to suggest America is complicit in the deaths of Gaza’s civilians. “You say this is wrong, you can’t do this kind of shelling or targeted attacks,” Cuomo said of the recent attack on a school. “You are providing the weapons and artillery that allow these attacks to continue. Does that complicate a message of humanity coming from the United States?”

      This instinct in the press to reward Hamas’ strategy of ensuring maximum civilian casualties in order to turn global opinion against Israel is a bipartisan one.

      “The prolonged killing of children and women in Palestinian territories will only serve to weaken Israel and strengthen Hamas,” MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough articulated in a Politico op-ed. Indeed, that is the entirety of Hamas’ strategic approach to combat with Israel.

      “Every day that goes by with images of children being pulled out of the rubble of bombed-out schools, hospitals and public markets is a day that only makes Hamas stronger and threatens Israel’s long-term security,” he added. “And blindly supporting Israel’s politicians when their actions may be strengthening Hamas is no way to show our support or friendship.”

      Morehouse College professor Marc Lamont Hill told CNN anchor Carol Costello on Monday that the United States is sacrificing its moral authority by supporting Israel both rhetorically and substantially. “It’s suggesting that there’s an unjust war going on that innocent civilians are being killed and U.N. schools and other safe havens and yet they’re doing nothing to stop it from happening,” he said of American policy toward Israel. “They could control this war at this point. They could end this right now if they want to.”

      Tell that to John Kerry.

      Hill’s conservative counterpart in that segment, New York Times columnist Ross Douthat, favorably entertained the notion of cutting off military support for Israel, though he avoided making any claims about the morality of that policy prescription.

      The American press has an odd blind spot when it comes to the public’s support for Israel. It seems the media is attempting to educate the public that their support for the Jewish State is not founded in logic but on tradition. The media, in fact, might be better served by taking a lesson from the public, which is watching the situation in the Middle East closer and more scrupulously than the elite press has given them credit for.
