Snapped Shot

Note that while my mortal enemies don't see anything wrong with parroting Palestinian claims without a shred of analysis, it feels compelled by duty to question every single word spoken by Israeli settlers:

Foreign journalists who participated in a tour organized by a Jewish settler group gather around Israeli Eliana Passentin, center, outside her house in the West Bank Jewish settlement of Eli, Monday, Nov. 17, 2008. The settlers said they were trying to show the world they're regular folks trying to live peaceful lives. But the bus' bulletproof windows, the ubiquitous barbed wire and the watch towers keeping guard over the settlers' homes betrayed an existence that is anything but normal.

Heaven forbid these settlers be granted the same unquestioning access to the news service that their Palestinian enemies have.

Can you guess which side of this wall is Israeli territory?



Of course, when all you have time to do is try and kill people, it's not like you can put much effort into silly little things like "productivity" and "caring for your family," huh?

Don't let his faux-outrage [Ed.:—Or perfect hair. Dang it, why do the best punchlines always come to me too late?! Curses!] fool you: It looks like this gentleman is really trying to get the attention of the press. So far, his ploy is working. From today:



Last week (original photo undated, I captured it on the 9th of December):

It would seem that the entire ummah is on fire in protest against the farce of a conference in Annapolis. Finally, I am in agreement with the ummah on something (though I'd imagine for far different reasons). The highlight of today's protests? Perhaps the coolest portrait of Condoleeza Rice ever published, even outshining my previous fave:



I'll be rounding up the other highlights from around the world following the fold. Stay tuned for more!

Update: Someone has definitely been very busy spreading the propaganda about the Annapolis conference. Notice how all of these protests suggest that somehow, the United States and Israel are either conspiring to revoke the "right" of return, or how we're conspiring to seize Al-Aqsa. Very interesting coincidences, no?

(Regarding the "right" of return:—Keep in mind that with respect to any "peace" conference assembled, Palestinians demand an independent state of their own on one hand, yet they demand that Palestinian "refugees" maintain the "right" to return to Israel on the other. Sound confusing? Yeah, it might be—until you take a look at which map they are working from... It's all about "conquest," people. Nothing more, nothing less.)

UPDATE: According to the latest captions coming in, a man has been killed by Fatah security forces in Hebron, after being shot point-blank in the chest. Reports are that 15 other protesters have also been injured in the area—no specifics or details on them yet. Continue reading »

This is parody of a national leader that I strongly endorse, and it couldn't happen to a more deserving fellow:



Notice that those of us who believe that Jerusalem—the most holy city in all of Judaism—actually belongs to the Jewish people, are smeared by the Associated Press as being "opponents of peace." This is utterly laughable, if you consider those that the press insists are FOR peace.

Thanks to Sebastian Scheiner of the Associated Press for making this an extremely wonderful birthday.
