Sniffing Too Many Chemicals

Here’s a perfect example of how someone can be so intelligent in one field and such a blithering idiot in another.
Professor Ada Yonath, the winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry wasted no time in sullying her moment in the spotlight by opening her big fat mouth and defending terrorism and calling for all terrorists to be released from prison.
What that has to do with chemistry is anybody’s guess… but my guess is that she has been sniffing too many toxic chemicals in her lab. I’d love to see her lab relocated to Gaza, where she’d actually be under the terrorists’ thumbs. Or maybe to Sderot, where she’d have to interrupt her research every few hours to go running for her life to the nearest bomb shelter as the Hamas’s rockets come raining down. Then maybe she wouldn’t be flapping her gums as much.
She could have been such a great source of pride for Israel and, instead, she is now just a disgraceful embarrassment.
Here’s Arutz Sheva’s report:
Professor Ada Yonath, who received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry last week, wasted no time in using her new fame to air her political views. In an interview aired Saturday on the Army Radio station (Galei Tzahal) she opined that Israel should release all the terrorists that are incarcerated in its jails.
“We need to think of ways that [sic] people will not have motivation to go and kill and be killed,” Yonath said. “It is is not just a political matter. These people are people who usually do not have a horizon, they have no hope, they have no reason to want to live and therefore they do not care that others will not live, and at the same time maybe they will also go to heaven and receive some rewards. This does not happen to people who have options for life, who have a life in which they at least have the possibility of hope. We can change that.”

I previously posted about the latest rash of scandalous photos coming out of Afghanistan showing U.S. military atrocities under Obama’s command, and wondering if the media would pick up on it the way they did when it was Bush’s army… Well, here’s a twist I wasn’t expecting: yes, one of the U.S. media, Rolling Stone, [...]
Jeffrey Goldberg, a correspondent for the Atlantic, cast a spotlight on yet another disgustingly overt example of pure bias in the mainstream media, particularly at the anti-Semitic Reuters newswire. He points to a Reuters news item which contains the following despicable sentences: Police said it was a “terrorist attack” — Israel’s term for a Palestinian [...]
In the [sparse] reporting of the Palestinians’ massacre of the Fogel family, several newspapers stand out with their distorted sense of “balance”, i.e., where they feel overwhelmingly uncomfortable describing the barbarity of the Palestinians without at least taking a swipe or two at the Israelis, no matter how patently irrelevant or disgustingly disrespectful it comes [...]
