Decent Men Declare War on the New York Times

Israel declares long-delayed war on New York Times. Dear friends, the half-truths, untruths, and outright lies printed by the New York Times, once the respected newspaper of record, are an outrage. When it comes to Israel and terrorism and leftist agendas, the New York Times suddenly can't report the truth, reverting to the worst excesses of think-control organs -- no different from Pravda under the Soviet communists -- in which articles are slanted to convince, not to inform.

Israel has finally decided to declare war on the NYT. With its biased coverage of the despicable and unfactual Goldstone report (stating that this report "contains evidence of Israeli war crimes" when no such evidence exists, as the Times well knows, the whole report being based on Hamas propagandists with no input AT ALL from Israel), the Times has finally shown its hand. Even Reuters was more objective. Reuters!! Please join in the battle for truth and objectivity. Below, the letter of protest to Mr. Clark Hoyt, the Times' Public Editor, written by the spokesperson for Israel's U.N. Delegation.

Cancel your subscription, and if you've wisely already done that or never had one, contact Hoyt yourself to tell him how ashamed he and his paper should be: E-mail: public@nytimes.com. Phone: (212) 556-7652 Address: Public Editor

Where is the letter of protest? Below what?

And here I thought al-Reuters was hitting rock bottom in propaganda and disinformation with the photo shopped excessive smoke in a Lebanese city (I still have the version with Godzilla added in) and the same old woman with arms in the air and crying over her 15 houses being bombed. Then there was the guy who was playing with a dead baby for hours on end for a series of good photo ops. The NTSlimes is the new winner-loser with the nasty Goldstone report.

I was at a home improvement show in Texas last year, and there was a guy trying to sell the Sunday NYSlimes subscriptions. When he asked me, I was my usual cheery self and said, "No thanks, I get my news from the internet."
You should have seen the sneer I got from him! LOL

It was a decent man who bought The New York Times in 1896. He had been raised in a pious and patriotic Jewish family which typically endowed him with high ideals. He started as an errand boy for a newspaper in Knoxville, Tenn., learned the tricks of the trade, gaining experience in other newspapers, and on his 38th birthday, was offered the chance to take over the NYT. He declared this newspaper would be clean, dignified, trustworthy and impartial, and would print "all the news that was fit to print". He must be turning over in his grave to realize what his establishment has become.
Nobody buys this paper anymore because it is a repository of lies, it is dirty, undignified, untrustworthy and very, vert partial. I wish Bill Gates would buy it and turn it into the mouthpiece of the Republicans.

I forgot to mention his name: Alfred Ochs. His father, Julius Ochs, had reached the grade of Captain in the Union Army, he was a Justice of the Peace in Knoxville, was universally popular and respected and an ardent reader of the writings of the Hebrew faith. He was also a Freemason.

After you cancel your subscription, encourage all your contacts to do likewise.

Refuse to patronise businesses who advertise in the NY Times -- and if you do, be sure to let the business know why you are not supporting them so they will think twice before allocating advertising dollars to that agenda-paper.

And stop calling the NY Times a 'news paper', correct your friends/family/acquaintances when they mistakingly call it a 'news paper'. It's just a mouthpiece of the state-controlled media.

Actually, I don't think I know anyone who reads it...

Congress will enact a "Recovery Action Press Enhancement" Act, (R.A.P.E.,) as a Bailout for the Troubled Media, and require every American to subscribe to the NYT, or face fines, imprisonment or retroactive abortion.

[Sarastro]

Jokerman, that's the cleverest comment I've ever seen --- Bravissimo!!!

[Tammy]

Jokerman: That would be damn funny if it weren't so TRUE.

Pamela, I wouldn't even TOUCH the NYTimes, let alone read it!

[Moonbeam]

Jokerman,

Bwahahahahahahaahahhah!!!!! we needed that! Thank you.

[Jokerman]

I should've added that as the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) is commonly known as "Fannie Mae". . . the "Bailout for the Troubled Media" (BTM) will be commonly known as "Beat Me".

I've never figured out what's worse - NYT, BBC, Reuters, AFP, CNN, PMSNBC, et al nor did I even try. It's like trying to determine which is tastier - horse poop, dog poop, cat poop, pig poop or whatever other is there.

Speaking of poop, here is what the Reliance of the Traveller, an Al Azhar publicaion, has on the analogy I just spelt out above:

Fiqh-ul Sunnah. Version 1.05 - By Sayyid Saabiq

Volume 1 >> Fiqh 1.11 a: The urine and stools of animals that are permissible to eat

Both of these are considered impure. Ibn Mas'ud related that the Messenger of Allah, upon whom be peace, went to answer the call of nature. He asked 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud to bring three stones. 'Abdullah said, "I could not find three stones, so I found two stones and animal dung and brought them to him. He took the two stones and threw away the dung saying, 'It is impure."'

The hadith is related by al-Bukhari, Ibn Majah, and Ibn Khuzaimah. In one narration it states, "It is impure. It is the stool of a donkey." A little amount of it is pardoned though, as it is very difficult to completely protect one's self from it. Al-Waleed ibn Muslim says, "I said to al-Auza'i, 'What about the urine of animals whose meat is not eaten, like the mule, donkey and horse?' He said that they used to come into contact with these during their battles, and that they did not wash it off their bodies or clothes.

As for the urine and stools of animals whose meat is permissible, Malik, Ahmad and a group of the Shaifiyyah says that it is pure. Commenting on the subject, Ibn Taimiyyah says, "None of the companions held that it is impure. In fact, the statement that it is impure is of recent origin and not from the early generations of the companions."

Said Anas, "A group of people from the tribes of Ukul or 'Uraina came to Madinah and became ill in their stomach. The Prophet ordered them to get a milking she-camel and drink a mixture of its milk and urine." This hadith is related by Ahmad, al-Bukhari and Muslim and points to a camel's urine as being pure. Therefore, by analogy, other permissible animals' urine may also be considered pure. Says Ibn al-Munzhir, "Those who claim that that was permissible only for those people are incorrect. Specification is only confirmed by some specific proof." He also says, "The scholars permit, without any objection, the sale of sheep's stools and the use of camel's urine in their medicine, both in the past and in the present, again without any objection. This shows that they are considered pure." Says ash-Shaukani, "Apparently, the urine and stools of every living animal permissible to eat is pure." There is nothing to prove otherwise.

I truly thought I was BEYOND SHOCK on anything these days, but,"Infidel Pride" just proved that NOT to be the case,WOW!
Fellow Vets:
It kind of gives NEW meaning to S-O-S!

[Timur]

Pamela, let's be fair, now. Decent women have declared war on the NYT too. Don't want to appear to be sexist...

On at least two occasions the NYT has revealed information that was useful to Osama Bin Laden and his gang of thugs. I believe that is TREASON, and they deserve to go out of business. But unfortunately Obama will probably bail them out.
