RUTHFULLY YOURS

US ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice forgot on Tuesday that there’s an election in nine and a half months and led the charge against Israel in the UN Security Council. This is a preview to what things will look like if God forbid Obama is reelected, and it had a lot in common with a vacuum cleaner, with Tom Brady’s performance in the AFC Championship game and with Kevin Paul DuPont. This is from the first link.

During a Security Council session, US Ambassador Susan Rice urged Israel to halt all settlement construction in the West Bank and work to quell settler violence against Palestinians. She also expressed concern over the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Ah yes, the ‘humanitarian situation’ in Gaza. What a load of c**p.

And with Rice slamming Israel, it was food fight time. The UK and Germany piled on. This is from the first link.

British Ambassador to the UN Mark Grant accused Israel of employing violence in the territories and called on the Jewish state to halt all settlement construction, including in east Jerusalem.

‘Jordan mulling sanctions against Israel’ Roi Kais, Elior Levy

THE ROYAL TWIT FORGETS THAT ISRAELI INTEL HAS HELPED JORDAN (AKA) EASTERN PALESTINE SAFE SINCE 1967….RSK

Arab media say King Abdullah frustrated with Amman talks; is considering various diplomatic moves against Israel if negotiation with Palestinians continue to stall

Jordan’s King Abdullah alluded to a possible deterioration in Amman’s relationship with Jerusalem if unless Israel will “demonstrate it is willing to make considerable moves” to reignite the stalled Israeli-Palestinian peace process, the Al-Quds al-Arabi newspaper reported Wednesday.

According to the London-based Arab publication, Abdullah expected Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to “make significant concessions which will allow the Palestinian leadership to justify their return to the negotiating table.”

The papers sources said that the king has “three aces up his sleeves,” which he may choose to use of Israel proves “stuborn,” including the possible reduction or suspension of the diplomatic ties between Israel and Jordan, while possibly bolstering ties with both the Jordanian Opposition and even Iran.

Thursday will make the Quartet’s dealing to Israel and the Palestinian Authority, by which both parties were supposed to present their updated positions on security and the issue of borders.

Chief Israeli and Palestinian negotiators Yitzhak Molcho and Saeb Erekat will meet later Wednesday, in what Palestinian sources said is likely to be the last round of Amman talks.

According to the report, Abdullah has been able to convince Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas that Jordan should be give a chance to broker the Israeli-Palestinian talks.

According to the Maan news agency, Abbas “Refuses and will continue to refuse to prolong the talks… He sees today’s meeting as the last chance to broker an agreement that will allow the preliminary talks to continue and eventually mature into full-fledge negotiations.”

Abbas, the sources added, is poised to declare that the Amman talks have failed.

Palestinian sources told Ynet that “the ball is in Israel’s court.” The PA criticized Israel for “failing to meet the Quartet’s basic demands,” adding that it does not expect Israel to meet the Palestinian demand for a construction freeze in the West Bank.

The Palestinian Authority will convene its executive committee in Ramallah in the next few days to decide on the PA’s next move. The Arab League’s Middle East Committee will convene in mid February to review possible diplomatic moves in the matter, the report said.

MK Aryeh Eldad (National Union) told U.S. Ambassador to Israel Dan Shapiro on Wednesday that the plan for two countries west of the Jordan River has reached a dead end.
Eldad advised him to talk to his higher-ups in Washington about the need to develop an alternative plan, with an emphasis on opportunities that will open up when Hashemite rule in Jordan ends, and Jordan will become the Palestinian nation state.
Previous statements on the subject by Eldad caused anger in Jordan.
Shapiro was the guest of the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee. When reporters asked him about Jonathan Pollard, who has been languishing for more than 25 years in an American jail for passing secret information to Israel, Shapiro said he does not want to speculate in the matter and does not know how the matter will be resolved.
MK Meir Sheetrit (Kadima) wanted to know why MK Michael Ben-Ari failed to receive a U.S. entry visa while Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmedinejad and Hamas officials are allowed in, Shapiro answered that he does not deal with these matters.

Typically, Obama does nothing or opposite things so he can publicly not take any blame or he can take credit no matter what happens. Last night’s State of the Union message was no different. It was a message of pandering and vote buying.

Congress was full of crap, too.

Two things stand out for me.

Congress voted to exempt members from insider trading laws that the rest of us have to obey. Just ask Martha Stewart how jail was. Congressmen, on the other hand, become millionaires because of this.

Last night, our Dear Leader said he wanted Congress to change the law. These Congressmen, who had been getting rich, cheered Obama’s announcement that they would have to obey the insider trading laws like the rest of us. Hypocrisy!

Because the Republicans have been complaining about all the new regulations that Obama Czars have issued and that he plans to issue when Congress doesn’t do what he wants, Obama said he was going to delete regulations and that will save $10 billion over 5 years, or $2 billion a year.

That will save each citizen about $7 a year! Enjoy your windfall.

The new gas mileage requirements for cars will up the cost of cars around $10,000 a unit.

He is going to open almost all offshore and federal land for oil exploration. Could that be a response to “Drill Here, Drill Now”?

Everyone will get a few dollars here and a few dollars there if they just vote for him.

The Scourge of Jewish Self-Division Posted By David Solway

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/01/25/the-scourge-of-jewish-self-division/print/

I have often written, sometimes bemused, sometimes incensed, about what is surely the strangest fact of Jewish life, namely, its self-division. Since time immemorial, the Jewish people have been at war with themselves, both in the Holy Land and the Diaspora, allowing themselves to succumb to one of history’s most mordant ironies. In turning against themselves, they have effectively collaborated with those who would suppress, conquer or extinguish the Jewish community.

The template was already established in the Book of Genesis, where we read how one brother slew another in jealousy and resentment and a group of conspiratorial brothers sold their sibling into slavery. From that point on, the biblical archive presents a saga of recrimination, envy, hatred and fratricidal strife that in different degrees has imperiled the very survival of the Jewish “nation.” The pattern was consolidated in the story of Korah, Dathan and Abiram, the three rebels who “rose up” before Moses and challenged his authority. As the Lord said to Moses, “I have seen these people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people” (Exodus 32:9).

Brother against brother, prophet against people, king and priest, and even nation against nation form an indelible part of the Jewish chronicle. The history of the Two Kingdoms provides a continuingly relevant object lesson. After the death of King Solomon, the Israelite communality broke apart into the two warring monarchies of Israel and Judah. The shedding of kinship blood critically weakened the two kingdoms, leading to the conquest of Israel by the Assyrians and the reduction of Judah first by the Chaldeans, then by the Egyptians, and finally by the Babylonians. The Jewish epic may be described as: divide and be conquered. Indeed, surah 59:14 of the Koran tells us something very true about Jews: “There is much hostility between them: their hearts are divided…” It seems that the wise counsel of Maimonides in the Mishneh Torah has no resonance for the backsliders: “All of Israel and those who are joined to it are to each other like brothers. If brother shows no compassion to brother, who will show compassion to him?”

The fault line in the Jewish sensibility is tectonic in its dimensions and destructive in its effect. Perhaps the single most resonant case study in self-division involves the institutional founder of the Christian faith. The story of St. Paul is too well known to require much in the way of comment, yet it is richly instructive. A rabid persecutor of the followers of Jesus, Saul of Tarsus experienced a blinding conversion to the new faith and was shortly thereafter called by the name of Paul (Acts 13:9). He then became the Apostle of Christianity, considering his Jewish identity a mere rehearsal for a larger identity and at times expressing strong disapproval of Jews who held to their traditional beliefs and identity. (His quarrel with the Desposyni, the “servants of the Lord,” led by James the brother of Jesus who wished to preserve the purity and exclusivity of the original faith, is a matter of historical record.)

But the details of the Apostle’s former activities and subsequent religious convictions are specific to the time. Jews today do not persecute Christians. Indeed, they are the ones who are relentlessly persecuted—by Muslims, by secular antisemites and unhinged fanatics from both sides of the political spectrum (though massively from the Left), and by several Christian denominations associated with The World Council of Churches, replacement and liberation theologians, and the Quaker-Presbyterian axis promoting its BDS campaigns. More to the point, and the most indigestible perversion of all, countless Jews harry and denounce their own congeners. The tendency to a kind of binary kinesis seems inherent in the Jew, whether it is himself he loathes or his own people he reproaches and undermines. It is the psychic split itself, not its local content, that transcends the ages. In this respect, the Saul/ Paul fracture represents a longstanding Jewish archetype.

The ‘Protocols’ — Alive and Well World Over Posted By Giulio Meotti

URL to article: http://frontpagemag.com/2012/01/25/the-protocols-alive-and-well-world-over/

Salman Rushdie, the author of “The Satanic Verses”, was quietly deleted from India’s Jaipur Literature Festival after the protests of the Darul Uloom Deoband seminary – one of Islam’s most powerful bodies.

Rushdie went into hiding after the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Iranian Shia leader, issued a fatwa calling for his death.

Rushdie’s saga is now, in many parts of the Islamic world, associated with a “Zionist plot” and the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion”, a short book concocted by the czarist police and presented as minutes of a secret meeting where Jews plotted world domination.
