US FIRST AMENDMENT UNDER ATTACK


Here’s a little example of how Israel works. In fact, this is the little Hasbara game they play, it’s called the “Do as we say, not as we do Rule” or what I prefer to call “The Load of Bollox Rule” for obvious reasons. So let’s talk about “Free Speech” shall we? Hey, does everyone remember this:
The First Amendment was adopted on December 15, 1791. The Amendment states:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Stick with me I’m going somewhere with this. Now does everyone remember the UC Irvine incident from earlier this week? Where peaceful students stood up and exercised their right to free speech:
link Soon after Israeli ambassador to the United States Michael Oren began his speech Monday night at UC Irvine, the first student rose.“Michael Oren, propagating murder is not an expression of free speech,”

The remainder of his words were drowned out by an uproar of cheering and clapping from students sitting around him before he was led away by university police. It was the first of 10 interruptions throughout the speech, and by the end of the night, 11 UC Irvine and Riverside students were arrested and cited for disturbing a public event.They could face misdemeanor charges as well as university disciplinary hearings that could result in suspensions or dismissals, Lawhon said.
Ok, now that I’ve pointed out the First Amendment and refreshed everyone’s memory about the UC Irvine miscarriage of justice and farce, lets move on to the kicker.
link The Simon Wiesenthal Center is objecting to the appearance of Richard Goldstone at New York University. Goldstone is slated to deliver a keynote address at the university in late February, according to a news release from the center.

In a statement, the Los Angeles based-Wiesenthal Center urged the university president, John Sexton, not to grant Goldstone a platform.
So, Zionists make the argument that a pro Israeli speaker, representing a state accused of committing War Crimes, who is invited to speak at a University should have the right to free and unfettered speech. But.............. on the other hand, Zionists want to take that right away from other speakers who have also been invited to speak at Universities, simply because Israel does not like the message. There is a word for this so let's call this what it is folks, attempted censorship and undermining the American First Amendment.

ISRAEL CENSORSHIP EXPOSED

This is WAY too funny! Israel, the GREAT "so called" Democracy in the Middle East ranks alongside Iran for freedom of the press. Story below. Wow, Israel is having such a crappy time lately, what with all the war crimes listed in the Goldstone report, then the Zionist AIPAC spies in America, then there was the Rabbis in New Jersey doing the money laundering and stealing body parts for Israel, then there was the UN Draft Resolution passed, then there was yet ANOTHER Zionist spy caught in America, and now this...........you couldn't make this stuff up, it's PRICELESS
US press freedom improves; Israel, Iran worse-survey

The United States came in just behind Britain on the press freedom index of 175 countries, while China was at No. 168. Afghanistan No. 149 and Iraq at No. 145.

European countries hold the top 13 spots, led by Denmark, Finland, Ireland, (Up da Irish!) Norway and Sweden. France fell eight spots to No. 43, Slovakia dropped 37 places to No. 44 and Italy fell five spots to No. 49.

The group also drew attention to Israel, which fell 47 places to No. 93, losing its place as the top country for press freedom in the region and falling behind Kuwait at No. 60, Lebanon at No. 61 and the United Arab Emirates at No. 86

Israel has begun to use the same methods internally as it does outside its own territory," said Reporters Without Borders, adding that journalists had been arrested and imprisoned and that military censorship also posed a threat.

But as a result of actions during Israel's war against Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip in December and January, Reporters Without Borders ranked the country at No. 150 for its "extraterritorial actions."

"The toll of the war was very heavy. Around 20 journalists in the Gaza Strip were injured by the Israeli military forces and three were killed while covering the offensive," it said.

The ranking was compiled from hundreds of questionnaires completed by journalists and media experts around the world and reflecting press freedom violations that took place between Sept. 1, 2008 and Aug. 31, 2009. The exact number of questionnaires completed was not immediately available. source

Israel Lays "Guilt Trip" on Spain Over Censorship Refusal

PROOF POSITIVE:
1.”Freedom of Speech” only Applies to Israel.
2. Others who exercise their “ Freedom of Speech” will be jailed

Now see if YOU can spot the irony and double standards in this article below. HINT: the red text is the double standards and irony;o)
Spain daily to run interview with Holocaust denier

MADRID — A Spanish newspaper is defending its plans to publish an interview this weekend with a British writer who denies the Holocaust, despite a furious complaint from Israel.

The center-right daily El Mundo plans to run the interview Saturday with David Irving, who served 13 months in prison in Austria after being convicted there in 2006 over charges he denied the Nazis exterminated 6 million Jews. (Notice how his "Freedom of Speech" resulted in a jail term!)

It is part of a series of six interviews with World War II experts, timed to coincide with the 70th anniversary of the war's outbreak.

El Mundo said Thursday it wants to publish "innovative" views on World War II for the anniversary. The paper rejects Israel's assertion that this is a case where freedom of speech should be limited, the paper's deputy editor Juan Carlos Laviana said.

Israeli Ambassador Raphael Schutz condemned the newspaper's plans as an insult to its readers, to legitimate historians and to the concept of free speech. link
