- Rolling Stone’s Bizarre Cheap Shot At Sarah Palin
March 28, 2011
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, [...] - More Disgustingly Overt Reuters Bias
March 24, 2011
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 [...] - Bloomberg’s “Crash Tax”
March 24, 2011While reading last month’s issue of AAA’s Car & Travel magazine, I was surprised to discover that Bloomberg (with the FDNY behind him) is now trying to push a “crash tax” on anyone involved in a car accident, with such taxes ranging from $365 up to $490, depending on the severity of the crash. The [...]
- Obama’s Abu Ghraib
March 21, 2011The latest news out of Afghanistan is going to be really interesting to follow, if only to see how the media handles it. According to the Guardian and other (so far relatively few) sources, pictures have now made their way out of Afghanistan (courtesy of Germany’s Der Spiegel) showing brutal and psychopathic activities by U.S. [...]
- Sympathy For Israel? Time To Restore “Balance”!
March 16, 2011
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 [...]

Israel Naval Blockade Is Legal, According to the U.N.
Tom Gross, an renowned and influential journalist with years of expertise in Middle East reporting, reported on the recent UN commission that found Israel’s naval blockade to be legal, as reported in Israel’s Haaretz newspaper. As he often does, Gross added some great commentary of his own to the story: The Israeli paper Ha’aretz reports that “The... »
Israel, The Rogue State
(The following story is reproduced from Tom Gross’s Mideast Dispatch, a wealth of information on many news stories, particularly concerning the Middle East.) This is a rare pro-Israel speech delivered at Britain’s Cambridge University in front of 800 students, by Toronto-born 19-year-old second year law student Gabriel Latner at a debate three weeks ago.... »
Gaza: A Reminder
Tom Gross gives us a great photo journal reminder of the forcible evacuation of Jews from Gaza and the disgusting animalistic self-destructivist riots that the Palestinians engaged in during and after the evacuation. He also provides some links on that page to other related photo journals, one of which is a must-see for everyone... »
The “Moderate” Fatah
You almost never hear of Mahmoud Abbas without hearing the adjective “moderate”, and that adjective has also been used to describe his party/organization, Fatah. These are the people with whom the world is expecting peace talks to succeed. These are the people with whom world leaders are pressuring Israel to negotiate peace. So, let’s... »
Maintaining Skepticism and Debunking Mousavi
Similar to what I’ve been saying all, while democratic revolution is a noble initiative and a cause worth fighting for, we should not to too excited just yet about what’s going on in Iran until we know what they plan to do with that democracy, and if their intention really is a true democracy... »
