Some Americans Are Waking Up

I found this article about Al Franken and the number of Jews in the American Republican Party, but that’s not the REAL story. The real story was missed, except for one sharp unknown person who made a comment.

I spend a lot of time on this blog bashing America due to the blind support of Israel and the utter lack of assistance to suffering Palestinians who were collectively punished for whom they voted for in a democratic election. How Ironic! However, today I’m going to pay a compliment, not to the American government, but to an unknown person who commented on the story below from Forward.

You see, not everyone can be fooled, not everyone is happy with AIPAC and the ADL and Zionists controlling so much of the American Government and its foreign policy and its politicians. So when I found this article I was actually going to write my own comments about this article from Forward, but this unknown poster took the words right outta my mouth. So, since I cannot improve upon perfection, I’ll let this American poster do the talking. Article below followed by the comment:
With Al Franken Victory, No Republican Jews in the Senate By Dan Gilgoff, God & Country

One little-noticed effect of Al Franken's official installation in the Senate: Republicans now lack a Jewish senator for the first time in more than 50 years. Norm Coleman, whom Franken defeated, is Jewish, as is Sen. Arlen Specter, who recently left the GOP to run for re-election as a Democrat.

The sole Jewish Republican in Congress is now House Minority Whip Eric Cantor.
With Franken's arrival and Specter's switch, the Democrats now have 13 Jewish senators and 31 Jewish House members.

What's so remarkable about the falloff of Republican Jews in Congress is that it coincides with the decade-long trend of Republicans making support for Israel a central issue for their party. That's been fueled largely by the growing numbers of conservative evangelicals who are identifying as Christian Zionists.

Could it be that Christian Zionism, seen largely as a Christian-right phenomenon, is scaring off more Jews—who tend to be very wary of religious conservatives—than it's drawing in? Or are these overlapping trends a mere coincidence?
Now, here's the person who was not fooled one little bit:
Whats the quota?

A group makes up 2% of the population and it is a problem that they dont have a Republican senator?

Why does it matter that no jews have Republican Senate seats? Hmm, 2% of the populace is represented by 13% of the total senate and over 20% of the senate seats in one of two major parties, and somehow there should be more?

As I think of this, what is the percentage of jewish advisors and cabinet members? Well over 2% I'd wager.

I would say they are already represented far beyond their portion of the population, complaint denied.

The numbers here are very interesting indeed, and explain a few things
See? Americans are waking up now.........

Grim Future for Israeli Settlements-GOOD NEWS

The American public is waking up. There has been an overall 10% shift in loss of support for Israel since 2002. But better than that, a combined total of 3/4 of Americans polled are AGAINST settlements. This includes those who support Israel, that is significant.

Bethlehem Three-quarters of Americans think that Israel should not build settlements on occupied Palestinian land, according to an opinion poll released on Wednesday.

The poll, organized by WorldPublicOpinion.org, a project run by researchers at the University of Maryland, found that one third of Americans “show more sympathy for Israel than the Palestinians, substantially more than the 12 percent who express more sympathy for the Palestinians.”
However the largest number, 51 percent, expressed “equal levels of sympathy for each side. The percentage expressing equal levels of sympathy is up 10 points from 2002.”

Even those respondents who said they sympathize more with Israel
“feel that it should not be building settlements in the West Bank by a clear majority (64%), as do those who sympathize equally with Israel and the Palestinians (80%), and those who sympathize more with the Palestinians (96%).”

“Opposition to settlements is found among majorities of Republicans (65%), Democrats (83%) and independents (74%),” the survey of 1,004 respondents found.

The argument used by the researchers was suggested by the Palestinian delegation at the UN and read as follows: “UN resolutions 242 and 338, which were endorsed by nearly all members of the UN, including the US, called for Israel to withdraw from territories it invaded in the 1967 war. Thus, for Israel to build new settlements in these areas is illegal under international law."

The Israeli embassy in Washington suggested the following argument in favor of settlement: "Israel has a right to build settlements in the West Bank and Gaza because Jews have lived in these areas for centuries and have legitimate historical claims to property there." source

AIPAC Strikes Again ~ Organised to Take Freeman Down

Welcome to the United States of Israel, and you thought you elected Obama?



It appears that AIPAC didn’t like Freeman, and has its collective fingerprints all over the takedown. Who controls the President? Not the people, but AIPAC and Israel. Welcome to the United States of Israel, enjoy your stay! Filasteen did a good write up as well, you can read it HERE

”That effort was sparked to a considerable degree by Steve Rosen, a former top AIPAC employee, and there’s plenty of evidence the more right-wing elements of the pro-Israel movement were heavily involved.”

Very reliable sources inform me that Josh Block, an AIPAC spokesperson, contacted bloggers and journalists expressing concern about Freeman. That is probably what Freeman referred to when he mentioned “easily traceable e-mails” in the announcement that he was giving up the fight.


More on the involvement of AIPAC in Presidential politics:
“You get to dictate to a president who he can and cannot appoint to his own intelligence staff.


The article continues on the reasons AIPAC went after Freeman

This was not a Senate-confirmation issue. And it was not because of some financial or tax issue. It was because of what he believed. And a president is simply not allowed to have that kind of diversity of view in his administration.

Earlier today I wrote an entry HERE on an alternative Israeli lobby group that just began last year called “J Street” They are pro-peace and believe the Israeli-Palestinian conflict should be resolved through dialogue and negotiations, not war. They want to take American Politics to the left where Israel is concerned, away from the clutches of AIPAC’s Zionist Neocon agenda. I suggest people get behind them immediately.

Israel to Trade 226 Palestinian Prisoners for Israeli Captured Soldier

Breaking news: Very interesting stuff here from a political strategy standpoint. It appears that Israel is going to trade 226 Palestinian prisoners for the Israeli Soldier prisoner being held in Palestine.

Two sources below:

Israel offers amnesty to 20 Fatah militants: sources

RAMALLAH, March 10 (Xinhua) -- Israel as given amnesty to 20 wanted militants of President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement in the West Bank city of Nablus, senior Palestinian security sources said Tuesday.

Israel has officially informed the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) that its security apparatus decided to offer amnesty to 20 wanted militants, who are members of al-Aqsa MartyrsBrigades, Fatah's armed wing, said the sources who declined to give their names.

Most of the Fatah militants, who were offered amnesty by Israel, have been held in the prison of Nablus for several months, upon a security agreement issued between Israel and the PNA.

The sources said the PNA informed the wanted militants of getting Israeli amnesty, adding that other 17 wanted militants held at Nablus prison are still waiting for an Israeli amnesty.

AND MORE HERE:

Israeli security officials have been interviewing 'heavyweight' Palestinian prisoners in what the Palestinian Authority considers a sign of headway in the negotiations on a possible prisoner swap that would see captive soldier Gilad Shalit released

The most infamous prisoner being interviewed is Nasser Awais, the former commander of Fatah's armed wing, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. Awais was captured by IDF forces during Operation Defensive Shield in 2002. He was sentenced to 11 life terms.

It is estimated that Israel may offer to release these prisoners if Hamas agrees to remove other 'heavyweight' Palestinian prisoners from the list it had submitted during the negotiations. The Israel Prison Service denied that any talks were being held with Palestinian prisoners, and the Shin Bet refused to comment.

It was further reported that about two weeks ago Israel approved 226 of the 450 names on Hamas' list of 'heavyweight' prisoners it wants released in exchange for Shalit.

I think there are many things happening behind the scenes here, suddenly this prisoner exchange, and what with the sudden removal of Hezbollah from the terrorist list in England, presumably so that the British can talk to them (for the Americans!!) because the Americans can’t, and other subtle moves taking shape recently. Having witnessed the peace negotiations in Ireland for 13 years, I smell the beginning of something here, the Americans, the British and Israelis are up to something. What that something is we will have to wait and see.

Racist Zionists Dress as Tourists to Storm Mosque



Israel shows its racist side yet again. Israeli Zionists, akin to Nazi Racist Skin Heads, dress up as tourists to invade Al Aqsa Mosque during Muslim prayers.

Israeli extremists storm al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem's Old City
A group of 30 Israeli extremist settlers stormed the courtyard of the al-Aqsa mosque in the Old City of Jerusalem midday Monday.
Palestinian worshippers said that the group were disguised as tourists, and as soon as they were at the main courtyard they started to conduct prayers for the Jewish holiday Purim.


And in more news that proves what a racist apartheid rogue state Israel has become, we see this report:


the Israeli military announced a total closure of the Palestinian areas because of the Jewish holiday Purim. The Israeli Army announced that the closure will be implemented from Monday until Wednesday.

Well, you have to hand it to the Zionists, they learned from Hitler how to treat those not like themselves. Israel has become the most hated statelet in the world, and with good reason. They breed hate, speak hate, practice hate, preach hate, spread hate, steal land using hate, murder using hate, elect their politicians using hate, vote for those with the most hate, and use hate to commit genocide on an entire population in Palestine .

Wake up America, these people are controlling you, not the other way round. If it weren’t for your country giving them billions of dollars and weapons, they’d not like you either. The truth is they don’t like anyone but other Israelis or other Zionists. Interested in what Zionists think about Jews in America marrying non-Jew Americans? Read it HERE

NEW POLL OUT Hamas Support Increasing



Hey Israel and America, your plans failed miserably! I remember when Bush said “today the Palestinians are having a democratic election” but that was before they found out about the results of that Democratic election. You see, that’s the problem in a free democratic elections, people can vote for whom they believe will best represent them and best further their cause, which, in the Palestinian world is freedom from Israeli aggression, a free Palestinian land, return of stolen land, and the 2 year siege lifted. So who are you going to vote for? The guy who lived in America and is acceptable to Israel, Bush and Obama? The guy who will give away everything and get nothing? Seriously, learn from Ireland here. The harder the US and England tried to destroy Sinn Fein the more support they got.

Obama and Israel need to learn a hard lesson; you cannot pick and choose who you negotiate with. You must show your support for the democratic process and negotiate with those whom the Palestinian people elected, not those who are your puppets and will give you the best deal. And given that Hamas support is rising yet again, meet your new negotiating partners.

Excerpts from breaking news article on latest polls in Palestine:

Palestinian support for Hamas rises after war

A MAJOR new poll of Palestinians has shown a strong increase in support for the militant Hamas group following the 22-day Israeli offensive in the Gaza Strip.

It shows a significant increase in support for Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh while a fall in support for the more moderate, Western-backed Mahmoud Abbas, who leads the Palestinian Authority.

The poll was taken by the Palestinian Centre for Policy and Survey Research and involved a sample of 1270 adults in face-to-face interviews in 127 randomly selected locations. It has a 3 per cent margin of error.

The poll comes at a time of major flux in Palestinian politics -- the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority, Salam Fayyad, tendered his resignation suddenly this week saying he was doing it to make it easier to establish a unity government.

Hamas has been strongly opposed to Mr Fayyad, as were some old guard elements in Fatah who resented his efforts to make their financial affairs more transparent and put an end to corruption. Mr Fayyad, a former economist with the World Bank who lived in the US for some years, was an ally of Mr Abbas.

The poll gives both Palestinians and Israelis the first indication of the reaction of Palestinians to the Gaza war.

Israel's leadership had hoped Palestinians would lay much of the blame at Hamas, which had refused to stop firing rockets into southern Israel.

The poll finds: "Positive evaluation of the performance of Salam Fayyad's government declines from 34 to 32 per cent during the same period while positive evaluation of the performance of Mr Haniyeh's government (in Gaza) increases significantly from 36 to 43 per cent.

"Moreover, it seems that public perception of the ending of Abbas's term in office is leading 27 per cent to believe the legitimate president today is the Speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council, and 24 per cent to believe there is no legitimate president today, while only 39 per cent believe the legitimate president today is Abbas."

Mr Abbas's term technically expired in January, so the legitimacy of his presidency is questioned by some. The poll found that 35 per cent believed Mr Haniyeh's government was the legitimate one while only 24 per cent said Mr Fayyad's government was the legitimate one.

Now, if america cannot recognise Hamas as duly elected to represent its people,and therefore have a mandate, then why should Hamas recognise whom America or Israel elects.

Zionists Warn "Death of Jewish Lobby" in America



Zionists tell American Jews "Don't Marry That Gentile" warn of death to Jewish Lobbyist Power in America!
As in the King James Bible, from the 17th century onwards gentile was most commonly used to refer to non-Jews
Any doubters out there who may think these people can be reasoned with, or are “normal” just keep reading. If you happen to be a “gentile” married to a Jew, heads up, you are on the hit list as well. In fact, everyone who is not a “jew” is on the hit list, so that means the majority of the worlds population no less.

Have a read of my latest discovery. Shalom TV did a show in March 2008 about interfaith marriages being the death of Judaism but moreover will be the end of the Jewish Lobby's power in American Politics!!.. It is called (strangely enough) “ACCEPTING INTERMARRIAGE THREATENS JEWISH FUTURE”

Here we go, hold your nose, this is gonna get ugly
March 24, 2008 (Fort Lee, NJ) -- In a dramatic television roundtable on the future of American Jewry, the increasing acceptance of mixed marriages is identified as the most serious threat to Jewish continuity.

Available this week on Shalom TV, the panel discussion features Dr. Steven Bayme, director of the Contemporary Jewish Life Department of the American Jewish Committee, citing the dangerous change in Jewish cultural thinking about intermarriage.
Ok all you evil American gentiles, stop marrying jews!!! You are ruining us!! So stop it now!!
"For 4,000 years, Jews knew that mixed marriage was not the right thing to do. They still may have done it, because we often don't do the right thing. But we knew it was the wrong thing to do. Now, we are witnessing a cultural change, where people are saying, 'It's okay. It's a perfectly acceptable thing to do.' It's that cultural change that I spend an awful lot of nights worrying about." -snip-
I say l hope he worries himself to death, evil racist Zionist bigot, Oh and did I mention he’s a racist and a bigot?
"Intermarriage is a major challenge to American Jewish life, -snip- Dr. Steven Cohen, research professor of Jewish social policy at the Reform movement's rabbinical school, Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. "I find too many doves on intermarriage refuse to accept what I would call a 'realistic analysis' of its effects.”
More:
A leading expert in American Jewish demography, Dr. Cohen decries as "horrible" the low percentage of Jews who descend from intermarriages, pointing out that only "thirteen percent of grandchildren of intermarried Jews are, by any stretch of the imagination, Jewish. Eighty-seven percent are not Jewish. That bothers me! It really is awful."
So, it bothers him that there are innocent children being born who are not Jewish. His words were “That bothers me! It really is awful." Words escape me, well, not really, but I’m trying to cut down on swearing.
Moderated by Shalom TV's Mark S. Golub, the television panel also includes syndicated columnist and USA Radio Network Host Michah Halpern, and Betty Ehrenberg, advisor to the president of the World Jewish Congress.-snip- Ms. Ehrenberg expresses deep concern about the lower figures coupled with a "thinning out" of Jewish identity.

OK America, pay attention to this next section:
"If we will have fewer Jews, no matter how you estimate the exact number, we will have fewer people who vote, we will have a weaker political voice," she says, mindful of the community's influence on national and world affairs. "If you combine weaker numbers with weaker identification and weaker Jewish understanding, then you have a recipe for disaster .
Wake up from your slumber America!! There is an actual admission right there of the power these people hold over you and how worried they are about loosing it!! They will actually stoop so low as to make a television show, geared to the American Jewish audience, to impress upon Jews in America to NOT marry a non-Jew because it will harm the Jewish state when American Jews no longer hold huge power over the American government. - Ms. Ehrenberg states “you have a recipe for disaster“ Did you get that? I have two words for Americans “WISE UP” sadly there's more:
"It's less a question of 'Are we six million or 4.2 million or somewhere in between?'" adds Dr. Bayme. "What really is happening is that America is changing radically in terms of its population patterns. In that sense, the grounds of concern are quite real. "-snip- "If we're not realistic enough about saying it's a problem, we'll get nowhere with it. "The current generation of Jewish leadership needs to be challenged in terms of where it is going to place its emphasis. If it conducts business as usual--and I tend to think it will--then I am very agonized and very worried."link to pdf file
Now, if that’s not a wake up call to Americans, well I don’t know what is. You have just stared into the face of “Zionism” And it’s very ugly indeed. These people are religious fanatics and lunatics. They have perverted the Jewish religion into a right wing Nationalist Militaristic Fanatical movement. Americans must extricate themselves from these Zionists if it is to ever have any freedom to govern itself as it sees fit. The greatest reason of all as to why American’s are hated in the world, sits solely on the shoulders of its relationship with Israel. Right now none of your US politicians can rise up the ladder without the helping hand of AIPAC, a Zionist lobby group that will not allow anyone to gain office without their “approval” You have to pass the “AIPAC” test to get elected. Obama passed it with flying colours, when he said that Jerusalem should be the undivided capitol of Israel. How’s that for kissing AIPACS collective arses so he can be President?

Please for the rest of the world, get your act together and be free like your country was meant to be. Stop being “little Israel”
