This is sick -- the next phase in the "final solution". No more demos, as they have shown us who they are, what they are, their utter contempt for humanity and rule of law -- now they ratcheting it up.
Warn the synagogues. What follows is from the Anti-Israel email campaign:
Subject: `stop the killing` campaign at U.S. synagogues To: nyprotest@lists.riseup.net Date:
Sun, 04 Jan 2009 08:41:02 -0800 Subject: NO MORE DEMOS
No more demos. No more signs, chants, pithy t shirts. No more marches
to nowhere.
And DEFINITELY no more emails to Congress, or heart-felt messages to
Change.Gov and Obama, begging the conspirators to stop the
conspiracy.
We each one of us is responsible - and we each one of us must take action. We
cannot rely on Others to do it for us.
I have strongly suggested to many different so-called action groups, that we
immediately institute a program of visits to every synagogue in the USA, on
Friday evenings and Saturday mornings, and rise in each congregation and - in dignified firm
and unemotional voices - repeat “STOP THE KILLING”– We need to go in groups of 3-4, to insure that we
have 1 person as a defensive shield, and one as a video camera witness,
recording everything.
Jews especially should be doing these actions. We will face
harsh treatment, and possibly physical attack, but our message must be resolute
and continue week after week.
I see no possible legal impediment to this. The public, and certainly Jews- cannot be barred from entry to the
services, and it will be extremely hard for the Synagogues to enforce
exclusion. If they do, we can speak on the front steps, on the street, in the parking
lot.
The Jews of America must be confronted with their clear
responsibility- far more than complicity-in the mass murders, occupation, and
forced starvation of the people of Palestine.

In the
course of the day [Sunday January 4] it became known that in the night from
Saturday to Sunday a fire bomb was thrown at a house in Antwerp. The house
belongs to a Jewish family. As if by a miracle the fire extinguished itself. The
consequences could otherwise have been disastrous because at the time of the
attack 12 children were sleeping in the house.
The targeted house is
located in the Oedenkovenstraat in Borgerhout, within walking distance of the
Turnhoutsebaan. The Turnhoutsebaan was in 2002 the location of serious riots
after an AEL [Arabisch Europese Liga, “Arabic European Legue”] demonstration
went out of control.
UPDATE: There were rags with fire accelerators stuffed in the letter
box and then set on fire. The public prosecutor takes the matter very seriously.
Mayor Janssens [SP.A, Socialist Party] said that the Police continue to conduct
surveillance to protect the Jewish community.
More details about the
attempted arson are not known and/or not yet released. However, it is known that
several people from the Jewish community have received serious death threats.
Baron adds: Vlaams Belang has been vehemently and vigorously standing up for Belgian Jews.
It's the only party in Belgium doing so, as far as I know.
Shortly before 9 p.m. Monday night the fire services were called to
a fire in the premises of the Jewish congregation at Springpostgränd in
Helsingborg. The fire is suspected to be arson, and witnesses saw two
people sitting next to the building shortly before a large fire
erupted. The fire services were able to extinguish the fire rapidly.
Helsingborg.
According to Lennart Nilsson at the rescue services in Helsingborg, it
is probably a case of some form of firebomb being thrown in, but the
fire was limited to a small part of the premises. It is not clear what
damages the fire caused. No one was injured.
Tonight’s fire was the second in these premises in four days. The last fire occurred on the evening of January 2nd.
My good
friends at CAMERA Snapshots (no relation) have been covering the latest Hamas
manipulation of the press fairly relentlessly over the past few days, and a
couple of photographic-related items seem to stand out:
There are more
photographers than doctors on the scenes at al-Shifa Memorial Human
Shields Storage Area Hospital? And to think, almost none of them
seem to be able to spot the
militants amongst the bunch.
CAMERA has also spotted a
non-injured man being paraded around as a victim. Or at least, he surely
looks non-injured (as do many of the other "victims" being paraded into
al-Shifa Hospital).
I'll only add to this
by pointing out that faithful Muslims the world over appear to be quite adept at parading around bodies.
Or, to be more accurate, reasonable approximations thereof.
Is it
therefore beyond the depth of imagination, armed with this knowledge, to suppose
that Palestinians are also "dressing up" their victimhood just a touch?
As fauxtography may be getting underway at Shifa hospital,
photographers line up to give the casualties maximum exposure.

Why are there more photographers than medics?
Look at the vultures and the parasites .... and that's just the press.
UPDATE: Shyguy in comments: How's this
for a media bias example?!
UPDATE Sounder in the comment section (no digging required)
Hamas, the only organization who brings their fighters, family, ambulance and a handy corpse or two to the fight. "The film was screened to foreign reporters and later shown on Israeli television, causing considerable amusement among the TV commentators and journalists, since the "corpse" kept tumbling out of the blanket. (LINK HERE) "One time he falls off the stretcher when he is already in a crowd," Col. Eisen narrated. "When he came back to life in the middle of the crowd (at approximately 1:35 in the clip), the crowd breaks up because they didn't know that it wasn't really a corpse." Israel Radio reported that many reporters laughed at the point in the tape that the "corpse" seemed to "rise from the dead," causing the people around him to flee in terror."
LOS ANGELES (JTA) — Police in California are investigating as hate crimes the
posting of anti-Israel and pro-Hamas placards at two synagogues.
Three letter-sized, hand-written signs were discovered Tuesday at Beth Jacob,
an Orthodox congregation in Irvine, Calif. One poster proclaimed, “Gaza– The New
Shoah” and a second read, “Hamas Recognizes Israeli Genocide.”
Similar posters were found on the same day at the nearby Reform Congregation
Shir Ha-Ma’alot.
Today a little after three o'clock this afternoon missile attacks on a direct
hit גראד kindergarten in Ashdod. Orsisi heard a big explosion of the missile
Niftzo שמשותיהם synagogue nearby, a truck dragged Shachnth buildings near the
kindergarten. Two residents were injured in an easy, one feels pressure in the
chest while the other was hit by fragments. Also located a number of victims
rather than dread.
UPDATE: More news the media finds irrelevant: Hamas launches more than 24 rockets into southern Israel.
More news you won't be seeing. And more news that will be dismissed as if .....denying anti-semitism will somehow alter the deadly consequences of denying anti-semitism. Just the opposite. Islam gets stoked, which was made painfully clear by the violent Muslim demonstrations across the world this past week.
Islam has declared war on the West - on their favorite target, the Jews, Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists - it's in the koran. Convert or die.
Think 26/11, and images of the carnage at the Taj come to mind. But
the terrorists themselves were in no doubt that Nariman House was the
prime focus. For this was the place which housed a Jewish centre, and
the fanatics[Muslims] from Pakistan were clear that they wanted to send a
message to the world from there.
A senior police official, told DNA on condition of anonymity, that
the interrogation of Mohammed Amir Iman Ajmal (aka Kasab) revealed as
much. Just before entering the city, the terrorists' team leader,
Ismail Khan, briefed them once again about their targets. "But Khan
briefed Imran Babar, alias Abu Akasha, and Nasir, alias Abu Umer,
intensely on what to do at Nariman House," the officer said.
When asked during interrogation why Nariman House was specifically
targetted, Ajmal reportedly told the police they wanted to sent a
message to Jews across the world by attacking the synagogue.
According to the statement by Ajmal, Khan told Babar and Nasir that
even if the others failed in their operation, they both could not
afford to. "The Nariman House operation has to be a success," the
officer said, quoting from Ajmal's statement.
"Khan also said that as far as Nariman House was concerned, there
should not be even a minimal glitch in finding it and capturing it,"
the officer quoted Ajmal as saying.
After the dinghy carrying the 10 terrorists reached Mumbai at the
Macchimar colony opposite Badhwar Park in Cuffe Parade, it was
decided that no bombs would be planted in the taxi to be used to
reach Nariman House.
"The idea," according to the police officer, "was that if Babar and
Nasir got delayed in locating and entering Nariman House, the bomb in
the taxi may explode even before they entered their target."
The officer further quoted Ajmal's confession as indicating the
Nariman House killers may have either lost their way or took their
time entering the building to avoid failure.
The dinghy reached Cuffe Parade around 8.30pm, but Babar and Nasir
entered
Nariman House at around 10pm. This means they took around one- and-a-
half hour to locate and enter Nariman House," the officer said.
Anyone who knows Colaba would have got there in 15-20 minutes.
Another aspect which indicates that the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) did not
want the Nariman House operation to fail was Fahim Ansari's
revelation to the crime branch. Ansari, who was arrested for his
alleged involvement in the bomb blasts at a CRPF camp in Lucknow in
January last year, told the police that Nariman House was also
surveyed by him last year. Interestingly, Ansari did not reveal this
detail when he was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh police in February
last year.
"Ansari told us that he did not divulge this information earlier
because it would have jeopardised the most important operation of the
LeT. He had also been warned by the LeT that Nariman House was their
most secret operation and must not be compromised at any cost," the
officer said.
At a meet to discuss internal security, Manmohan
Singh reiterated the LeT was behind the Mumbai attack and added the group must
have had support from official agencies.
Pakistan targeted Jews?
India on Monday handed Islamabad the evidence linking the Mumbai terror
strikes to "elements in Pakistan" and intensified its diplomatic offensive.
The one positive statistic to come out of the Obama raid on race to the White House was that 28% of the American people got their news from the internet, 27% from the news nets and 26% from the cable news nets. This is an important development despite the fact that folks may be going to the The NY Crimes website or other leftarded news sites. It is an important behavioral change that can alter the course of human events if we take proper action.
There is hope that truth and accuracy in reporting still has a shot of getting out to thinking folks. Google can ban and sandbox me but they can't stop you.
It is incumbent upon you to help drive this trend. You see the terrible harm the propaganda media has inflicted upon western civilization. Israel is retaliating in self-defense for years of rocket attacks from Gaza - is this being reported? No, it has been obfuscated, deleted by media maroons. But the assertion that civilians (whom Hamas hides behind) are being killed is the relentless drumbeat of a pod-like media.
Atlas reader Audrey wrote me,
"And all of it -- all -- caused by the lying press. Without the lying media -- the lying, cowardly, mal-informed press compounding their trash and feeding it to otherwise normal people over the years, the Islamonazis would have no power -- would never have had power -- and it would never have come to this. Lying, bigoted, ignorant, uneducated, self-defiling, destructive, phoney, cheap, pornographic, dishonorable press. It's they who've enabled this degradation, this twisting and warping of humanity"
I have been receiving emails like the following in increasing number:
P –
I was appalled by the events you reported in Paris (the riots).
I went on a French TV site to get the details.
There was nothing there, nada – either as a packaged story or the live feed.
Then, there was a slight mention in a very quick medley package of protests around the world.
This morning, I see nothing on the home page.
Even if you don’t speak French, scan this for 5 seconds: their coverage is limited to the meanie Tzahal Israeli army and how the world condemns them. Why does the Atlas blog have deeper coverage than the French TV news network??

Amazing.
Keep up the great work, Pamela.
The media is in the tank for the jihad.
You must read the blog and circulate the posts. Where do you choose to get your news? Who can you trust? I am Atlas Shrugs. My readers have been riding shotgun with me everyday 24/7/365 since February 2005. You know who I am, where I get my news, my investigative pieces, all of it.
You must help change the direction of the titanic -- create mailing lists of family and friends. Send my articles to people on your lists. If you sign up for daily email updates, it is easy to forward articles - there is an icon on the bottom of each post "email this article". Write your Government officials often!

MEDIA IS IN THE TANK FOR THE JIHAD. BIG MEDIA IS DANGEROUS. It's as
much a battle of ideas as it is a military battle.
We must build an alternative information delivery system to get the
truth out. If we build it, they will come. Word needs to be spread if we are going to win this war. And
win we must.
Through the rocket scarred south, we made our way to Sderot, a
fabled town known for its music and home to many of Israel’s most
popular musicians. A cultural enclave, this bucolic hamlet has suffered
3,500 rocket attacks in six years, and the Israeli government did
nothing. They urged restraint. Urged restraint as the world community
and Condi is urging now.
What a tactical mistake. It baited, coaxed and inevitably encouraged
the barbarians. The more Israel moved the line in the sand, the bolder
the enemy has become. As we see all
This lovely town has kindergartens with bomb shelters, elementary
schools with steel gates, steel fences and an according to a study from
the Hebrew University over 80% Sderotian kids a re suffering entire
generation of children suffering in post trauma syndrome. Children are
afraid to go out, return to the parents beds, unable to concentration,
wetting their beds, losing a lot of pills to sleep, to behave……their
drawings reflect death, rockets, dead people.
We visited with the very wise, even tempered, low key, two term Mayor
Elli Moyal. I was so struck with his wisdom and his logic, he ought to
run for Prime Minister. “Our jobs as citizens as civilians is to stay
in this land. Not to move. Since 2001 until today, we have the same
population in Sderot. No one left Sderot , this is the strength of
these people.” (despite 3,500 attacks); Here is an excerpt of his
remarks:
“It’s
a shame that 1/3 of our state is empty. I was Haifa, I was in
Nahariah I was in Tiberias, I was …….nobody actually stayed there.
Most of the people ran away to Tel Aviv. Said it then and I say it
now.This war is against civilians not against the army. Now the
civilians part. To show their strength.
Nasrallah is a vicious killer but he’s not stupid. He didn’t call a
war against the Israeli army, he called a war against the people of
Narhariah, the people of Haifa, the people of Tiberia. If the people
ran away, well actually he achieved what he wanted and I said it
clearly in that article yesterday. And I was the first one who said
it, c’mon, we not about the run. We are a state in a war, we’ve got to
stand our place. Ok take the kids out. Take the weak people out. But
the rest must stay.
We stayed here for 6 years, we never left. This is the situation, if
you ask me. Because it’s not a two state conflict. It is a war against
terror. PURE
We don’t have a conflict with the Lebanon state. We don’t have a
conflict with the Lebanese. We have a conflict with the terror
organization. If you are asking me the nickname of Hezb’Allah is Bin
Laden. It’s international terror. It’s not local terror taking place in
the Middle East.” The same hands who did 9/11 are doing right now what
they do in the North.
It’s international terror, organized by al qaeda, Iran, by Syria by
those states that are supporting terror. And unfortunately we got that
job to fight it straight – face to face.
We don’t have a conflict with Jordan. We don’t have a conflict with
Egypt. We have a conflict with terror. This is the situation.
Now is the time of civilians to make their statement. To stay. We
don’t have a choice. It’s not, it shouldn’t be a consideration to leave
our cities. This is my opinion as a citizen here is Israel.
[…] We should stay. It’s gonna be tough. It’s gonna cost. But it’s not the solution to run away to leave Haifa. It’s a shame.
[..} We should act normally in a dangerous situation. But we
should, we must act normally. That’s why I stayed here 6 years. That’s
why no one has left Sderot. We never closed schools for one day in the
last 6 years, we never stopped giving services, municipality services,
welfare, sports, you name it, industry, commerce. It’s all open. It
was tough. We buried people, small kids. It’s not easy. But we
continued. We couldn’t give them that joy to see us running away.
Because that’s what they are looking for. They want to see us running
from our country, from our cities. That’s the voice that should be
heard all over Israel. Now is the part for the citizens the civilians
of Israel to be strong to stay and keep normality in an abnormal
situation. I understand, it’s a war. We can not allow ourselves to run.
It’s a tiny, a small country anyhow. It is smaller than Rhode Island.
Look at the map once . It’s a very small country. 6 million people live
here. Half of it is a desert. We don’t have that choice to leave, to
hide somewhere. They will find us in Jerusalem, in Tel Aviv, in Haifa….
so we must stay.
Please listen to this man’s words. I implore you. It’s worth listening to many, many times.
I have been seeing this tactic spike, violence - I picked up on it months ago. The Muslims at these Islamist rallies were getting physical. Random acts of violence at this rally for example, where a Muslim slapped one of the female patriots (the mom of a soldier serving in Iraq) in the face.
This escalation is deliberate. Random attacks - new thing. New phase in the war on the west. This is a strategy that has been instituted, calculated - and yes, it is going to escalate further. I am seeing more and more of it in emails and comments -- this one today from Sydney, Australia:
My husband and I, were speaking with an Israeli girl this evening ( you
know the ones that sell the Dead Sea cosmetics)and she told us that a few of her
Israeli girl friends, were on Bondi Beach this afternoon, when a group of six
Lebanese thugs bashed one of them. They are, I believe, in custody.
As soon as it hits the media, I will let you know
For them even to be at Bondi Beach, meant only one thing they came there
looking for trouble. It's not the area where the trouble making Lebs, usually
hang out.
I am so furious. I was feeling some compassion prior to this, now they can
nuke the lot of them as far as I am concerned.
And this in the comment section from Rubicon:
Excuse me.
I stood with the pro Israeli contingent this past Friday in Chicago. I was less than 15 feet away when some Muslims started shoving a couple
of pro Israeli girls around so as to walk through our group. We, myself and another guy, pulled the mighty jihadis off the women and grappled with them till the CPD stepped in.
One of the Muslims was hauled away in a paddy wagon.
I'm not Jewish.
To be sure, Jewish organizations have provided us with the greatest
number of opportunities to rally against the jihad and for that I am
grateful but I had absolutely no information about the rally/counter
rally scheduled for Friday till I looked through the various Chicago
Arab media.
There are plenty of us unaffiliated types out here eager to fight the jihad in America, regardless of the situation in Israel.
Is there any national organization currently engaging the jihadi thugs at the street level?
Just askin.
Ambassador John Bolton writes a long overdue eulogy for the "two state" solution and pronounces it DOA. Halivay! Yes, it's long dead, and I am glad that the notoriously leftarded Washington Post has dared publish it.
I do not agree with Bolton's three state solution - the only real solution is Israel keeps Israel's land. Judea and Samaria is Jewish land. Period. Stop expelling Jews from Jewish land. It is the Arabs in Israel that must be expelled.
Israel must have defensible borders. Enough catering to savage annihilationists.
And none of this is even remotely possible until Islamic jihad is routed.
War in the Gaza Strip demonstrates yet again that the current
governance paradigm for the Palestinian people has failed. Terrorists
financed and supplied by Iran control Gaza; the Palestinian Authority
is broken, probably irretrievably; and economic development is stalled
in Gaza and the West Bank. Palestinians are suffering the consequences
of regional power struggles played out through them as surrogates.
Israel isn't a happy place, either. It endures opprobrium from the
world's High-Minded for defending itself from terrorism yet still finds
itself subjected to terrorist attacks from Hamas and terrorists based in Syria and Lebanon. Israel's domestic politics are increasingly muddled, and its way forward obscure.
Neighboring countries also suffer. Egypt has walled off its boundary with Gaza; Lebanon remains under threat of a Hezbollah
coup enabled by Iran; Syria slides further under Iranian hegemony; and
Jordan is trapped in the general gridlock. Other Arab countries search
for solutions, but their attention is increasingly diverted by the
growing threat from Iran and the downturn in global oil prices.
Given this landscape, we should ask why we still advocate the
"two-state solution," with Israel and "Palestine" living side by side
in peace, as the mantra goes. We are obviously not progressing, and are
probably going backward. We continue poring over the Middle East "road
map" because that is all we have, faute de mieux, as they say in Foggy
Bottom.
The logic to this position is long past its
expiration date. Unfortunately, it is hard to imagine a new approach
that the key players would receive enthusiastically. If the way out
were obvious, after all, it would already have been suggested. So
consider the following, unpopular and difficult to implement though it
may be:
Let's start by recognizing that trying to create a Palestinian Authority from the old PLO
has failed and that any two-state solution based on the PA is
stillborn. Hamas has killed the idea, and even the Holy Land is good
for only one resurrection.

Soaring fires that sways and swing,
And children's faces looking up,
Holding wonder like a cup

Buy it and never count the cost;
For one white singing hour of Peace
Count many a year of strife well lost
And for a breath of ecstasy
Give all you have been, or could be.
