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."

Mehdi Hasan VS Daniel Taub, Israeli Ambassador On Current Issues

Israeli Ambassador Taub getting an interview that he would never face from the US Media - You will notice he uses the same Israeli talking points:

Mehdi Hasan Hands  Daniel Taub, Israeli Ambassador His Ass:





Daniel Taub, same talking points on the BBC:




Israelis and Palestinians have agreed to an indefinite ceasefire, ending Israel’s 50-day assault on the Gaza Strip. Palestinian health officials say 2,139 people, most of them civilians — including more than 490 children — were killed in the Israeli offensive. Israel’s death toll stood at 64 soldiers and six civilians. The ceasefire deal was mediated by Egyptian officials in Cairo and took effect on Tuesday evening. It calls for an immediate cessation of hostilities, an opening of Gaza’s blockaded crossings with Israel and Egypt, and a widening of the territory’s fishing zone in the Mediterranean.

  1. Israelis and Palestinians have agreed to an indefinite ceasefire, ending Israel’s 50-day assault on the Gaza Strip

    You more honestly could say, ending the rockets and mortars fired 1st into Israel by Hamas. You could also say that Hamas finally accepted the cease fire that Israel, the UN, Egypt and the Arab league offered 4 weeks previous...

    To be more honest you could say: The terrorist group Hamas, who placed weapons INSIDE of UN Schools, fired from civilian homes and used human shields reported 2139 people killed.

    You could also say that over 1000 Hamas terrorists were also killed...

    You could also say that Hamas has since celebrated it's victory and stated publicly it is committed to the destruction of the Jewish state.

    A intelligent, well spoken Jew that to me?

  4. As for handing the Jew his ass?

    Hardly.

    In the end? Hamas celebrates the victory... Arrests 150 more of it's own citizens for collaborating, which means being tortured and then a bullet to the back of the skull....

    Hamas owns this. The damage to Gaza is the same damage that Hezbollah inflicted by it's similar action in southern lebanon.

    No matter how many counterfeit 100 dollar bills Iran hands out the losers are the Palestinian people.

    When the people of Gaza and the people of Lebanon finally have enough they will throw out the Iranian backed governments that are killing them...

    Til then? tuff nuggies...

    Look to Syria as the example of what an Iranian proxy government will do to it's own people...

    LOL

    1. Israel? Hardly...

      Israel is, instead, investing heavily in IS according to "The Plan". It was reported today that rogue Israeli General, Yahtzi Dayan, grandson of fabled Israeli military genius Moshe Dayan , is the strategist behind the IS blitz.

      An anonymous source reports that at one point US and UK operatives believed they had captured a copy of "The Plan" during a botched raid on an IS captives' compound. After thorough examination, it proved to be no more than a Turkman translation of a Kurdish translation, of a Hebrew recipe for matzo ball soup. It can be reported that reputable sources were able to make the Israeli connection to IS from the document as well as finding heretofore unknown glyphs that may update the Mayan "Calendar of Doom." More to follow.

      N Ireland children sent to Australia were sexually abused, inquiry told
      Children as young as five were subjected to severe hardship and sexual and physical abuse, inquiry chairman reveals
      Henry McDonald, Ireland correspondent
      theguardian.com, Monday 1 September 2014 06.50 EDT

      Children as young as five were sent from Northern Ireland to Australian orphanages and other institutions where they were sexually and physically abused, the chairman of an inquiry into institutional child abuse has revealed.

      Sir Anthony Hart, who is chairing the historical abuse inquiry, said witness evidence will show "in shocking terms" how children were subjected to "severe hardships, and grave sexual and physical evidence" when they arrived in the country.

      The retired judge made his remarks during the latest session of the inquiry, held at Banbridge courthouse in County Down on Monday. This aspect of the largest public investigation into the abuse of children in state- and church-run homes is focusing on the treatment of 130 orphans and young people in care who were sent to Australia between 1946 and 1956.

      Sixty-six former residents of these institutions have given evidence of how they were transported across the world without their consent. Many of those who have come forward will give evidence via video link over what happened to them under the scheme.

      WHY have the United States of America, Canada, and the European Union all designated Hamas as a Terrorist Organization?

      I answered your question on the last stream.

      [QuirkMon Sep 01, 09:00:00 AM EDT

      .

      From Wiki

      A common definition of terrorism is the systematic use or threatened use of violence to intimidate a population or government and thereby effect political, religious, or ideological change.

      The reason Hamas is on the US terrorist list is that they meet the broad definition of a terrorist group and because they are at odds with official US policy. This is to a degree an arbitrary list. Otherwise, why would Ghaddafi and Libya be on the US list one day and off it the next. As for Canada and the EU, I would say the same criteria applies. We see the subjectivity of the term terrorist in the fact that both Egypt and Saudi Arabia call the MB a terrorist organization while the US does not. And we have to ask, why aren't the leaders of Saudi Arabia designated a terrorist group when they finance terror and spread a philosophy of terror throughout the world? Is it simply because they say they are against terror? Or is it because they are an ally of the US?

      Rhetorical questions?

      Here is another.

      Look again at the broad definition of terrorism?

      A common definition of terrorism is the systematic use or threatened use of violence to intimidate a population or government and thereby effect political, religious, or ideological change.

      Regarding the subject of the current stream, would the forced relocation of a population by the military of an occupying nation be considered a terrorist act? It seems to fit with within the broad definition. Would collective punishment, the burning down of family homes of the relatives of accused terrorist in order 'to make a point' for instance, itself be considered a terrorist act?

      Is terrorism a matter of degree, or the form that it takes, or who does it, or who defines it?

      A lot of questions out there if one has the curiosity to ask them.]
