CHARLES JACOBS: AN OPEN LETTER TO ABE FOXMAN, NATIONAL DIRECTOR OF THE ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE….PLEASE READ

Open Letter to Abe Foxman, National Director ADL

Dear Mr. Foxman;

I write to you with the utmost respect for you and the work of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). You work diligently to achieve your mission and this letter is to urge you to continue to do so, but to also to plead with you to redirect your focus to the most real and present danger confronting the Jewish people today.

As you yourself have said, Islamic anti-Semitism constitutes the largest threat faced today by world Jewry. Funded in the main by Saudi petro dollars, mosques and madrassas around the globe teach millions of Muslims that Jews are the ‘sons of monkeys and pigs’ and ‘the murderers of prophets and the enemies of Islam’. This poison has reached beyond Muslim lands, engulfed Europe where Jews and Jewish institutions have come under increasing physical assault and now is reaching America where radical Muslim leaders constantly preach to their people hatred of Jews. Muslims have targeted and murdered Jews in America and mounted many plots to attack Jewish institutions. Even you on a number of occasions have said that this development is extremely dangerous for our people.

Yet the ADL, the Jewish people’s largest and most important defense organization, has done little to educate Jews about this daunting problem. Nor has the ADL developed a strategy or even a campaign to adequately address it.

Indeed, in a recently completed study – at www.charlesjacobs.org — , fewer than 8% of ADL press releases over the last 15 years address Islamic extremism, Arab anti-Semitism and terrorism. And, as the problem continues to grow, ADL generates even fewer press releases on these issues. If this problem is one of our most pressing, why are the resources expended on it so small relative to other things that you do? Certainly the traditional sources of anti-Semitism in this country are worthy of your scrutiny, but the lack of emphasis on this present existential threat to world Jewry and its new found presence in America is telling.

Further, while FBI statistics show that hate crimes against Jews in America are eight times the number of crimes against Muslims, the ADL has sought to validate the Islamist claim of victimization – contrary to all objective data — that hatred of Muslims is a major problem in America, and spends Jewish resources to fight “Islamophobia” because, in your words, “You can’t fight the fight against anti-Semitism without fighting against bigotry.” And “You cannot ask people to stand with you unless you are ready to stand with them.”

MARILYN PENN: IT’S TEN P.M. ****

http://politicalmavens.com/

I asked Google for information about athletes who have fathered many children by different women and was bowled over when numerous pages of results appeared. To summarize the first few websites, here is a partial list of the top offenders: Calvin Murphy – 14 illegitimate children by 9 women; Travis Henry – 9 kids by 9 women; Antonio Cromartie – 9 kids by 8 women; Jason Caffey – 8 kids by 7 women; Shawn Kemp – 7 kids by 6 women; Derrick Thomas – 7 kids by 5 women. There are more than 70 other names with less dramatic numbers – fewer than 5 illegitimate children per athlete, but by any yardstick of measurement, these are staggering statistics for people who are heroes to a vast majority of American boys and men. Their reputation as deadbeat dads doesn’t hurt their careers or their fan base, yet the role models they project to youth are surely as dangerous as tobacco to the 70% of African-American women who are single mothers.

The most serious domestic question facing America today – the one that precedes and precipitates the dilemma of unemployment – is how to cope with the myriad problems resulting from children being raised without a biological father in the home. That is the single biggest predictor of poverty, failure to graduate from high school, drug and alcohol abuse, child-abuse, depression, teen pregnancy, gang membership, anti-social behavior and unemployability.

WALTER HUDSON: PROPER GOVERNMENT WOULD END “OCCUPY WALL STREET”

http://pjmedia.com/blog/proper-government-would-end-occupy-wall-street/
When it comes to protecting individual rights and property, we actually need more government.

“They can afford new windows.” – overheard at Occupy Oakland in reaction to the vandalism of Whole Foods.

Tea Partiers are used to being called anti-government. When we stood opposed to President Obama’s state-run healthcare law, we were labeled “anti-government.” When we called upon Congress to risk a 2011 shut down in pursuit of real budget cuts, we were marked “anti-government.” When we refused to raise the debt ceiling without systematic fixes to the budget process, we were branded “anti-government.” Even now, as we stand in contrast to the genuine anarchists and violent revolutionaries rallying under the militaristic term “occupy,” it is we who remain “anti-government.”

FROM FALSE “APARTHEID” CHARGES, ARABS TURN TO “FREEDOM-RIDING BUSES” TO HARASS ISRAELIS; YISRAEL MEDAD

http://myrightword.blogspot.com/2011/11/racheting-up-apartheid-to-freedom.html Letting their imagination run away with them, especially that their apartheid analogy is falling apart, the lefty progressive radical supporting Arab fascism in my neighborhood, have come up with another idea: freedom-riding buses. On November 15, Palestinian activists will attempt to board segregated Israeli settler public transport headed to occupied East Jerusalem in an […]

WHAT IS OBAMA THINKING? BEN SHAPIRO

http://townhall.com/columnists/benshapiro/2011/11/09/what_is_obama_thinking/print That’s the question that has to be on everyone’s lips at this point. We’ve spent trillions of dollars of taxpayer money we don’t have — to no avail. We’ve created massive new entitlement programs without funding them. We’ve emboldened class warfare artists to take to the streets, littering America’s public spaces with human debris […]

MICHELLE MALKIN: THE GREAT STONEWALL OF OBAMA

http://townhall.com/columnists/michellemalkin/2011/11/09/the_great_stonewall_of_obama The White House laments that America hasn’t built enough massive government infrastructure projects. Nonsense. At the rate it’s growing, the Great Stonewall of Obama may soon be the second largest manmade object visible from outer space. While many construction workers across the country remain idle, Team Obama’s attorneys have been laboring overtime to erect […]
