Esther Petrak: Rule 5

Recognize her? Perhaps not. This is the photo you might remember better.

Not long after placing seventh in an American modeling contest, the young Modern Orthodox Esther Petrak, a native of Jerusalem, joined the IDF to serve and defend Israel as an instructor in the Merkeva (Chariot) tanks.

Have a wonderful Passover, y’all

Hope you can read the sign on the back of the truck: Moses Transports.

Anti-Semitism: the hatred that keeps on giving

Hebrew University scholar Robert Wistrich has written several books about Anti-Semitic Muslim terrorists such as the French-Algerian killer slain last week by the Toulouse police.

The English translation of Wistrich’s book, Muslim Anti-Semitism: A Clear and Present Danger is currently out-of-print. But his rather pricey history A Lethal Obsession: Anti-Semticism from Antiquity to the Global Jihad is available here. If you can’t afford the book, you can get a lot of its details from the reviews there.

He blames crimes like this week’s Jewish school massacre in Toulouse not only on the Islamization of Europe, but on the anti-Israel leftists who run European governments, newspapers and universities:

“The first thing to notice is that liberals and leftists usually try and reduce anti- Semitism to a purely right-wing anachronism or neo-Nazi phenomenon. In other words, they invariably ignore latent or overt racism in their own camp. Another method [they use] is to hold Israel responsible for any apparent increase in anti-Semitism, whether in the West or the Middle East. In other words, Israel is to blame, not the anti-Semites themselves.”

The quote is from this  interview in the Jerusalem Post which is worth a read.

UPDATE:  Let the whitewash begin.

The Joos did it (and will do it again!)

“I bet you did not realize that Fox, the Washington Post, and the Democratic National Committee were all controlled by Israel and its lobby!”

Nope. Or how about the idea that the Israeli prime minister is conspiring with Romney, Santorum and Gingrich to “get rid of” (note: not just defeat in the upcoming election, but get rid of) our beloved President Hopenchange.

Newsweak columnist Andrew Sullivan, channeling  Father Coughlin, says all this and more. Sullivan, you may recall, is the compassionate guy who used to belittle Gov. Sarah Palin’s children in print, including questioning the paternity of her retarded son. That’s what passes for Leftist media political argument these days.

Now this schmuck  has found another ax to grind. The oldest one of all.

And these New Jersey synagogue firebombings are the sort of thing he’s wittingly encouraging.

Peaceful Israel

“From outside of Israel, one would think that buses and bombs explode here every day; that armed soldiers patrol the streets searching [for] (and probably finding) terrorists on a daily basis.”

Sure was quiet where we went (even in J-Lem and especially on the Golan Heights) last spring and we expect it will be again when we return in late June. Proof that you cannot trust the MSM and its biased and usually conflict-oriented viewpoint. It’s like seeing the world through a porthole.

Banned in Iran

Ah, those crafty Mullahs, ever on the watch-out for the 12th Man, uh, Imam, have spied out the nefarious rabbi father of Krusty the Clown and banned the very dolls created from the Simpsons.

But you know who they really fear? Maggie. The one with the gun.

It’s the Second Amendment thing, you see, what gave the common folk the right to bear arms, something only the elite had been allowed to do since the Middle Ages—and the elite, even the so-called democratic version, have been trying to take it back ever since.

Thirty pounds of cocaine found at the UN

 

Now we know their problem. They’re blinded by all the “snow”, obviously.

UPDATE:  Make that thirty-five pounds of cocaine, in hollowed-out text books, found in bags in the UN mail room.
