Posted in: Cantor: Jewish tendency to vote Democratic 'bane of my existence'

The man is living in a fantasy world. "letting Americans help the poor through charity" is codetalk for "force poor people to beg for alms". If these people had their way we would be like the 3rd world. Poor people, disabled, sick and mentally ill thronging in the filthy streets. But no prob, the rich people all live in highrises and gated communities.

Posted in: Milking it with Hazon

Cool! Nice to see Jews getting excited about the basics. I get it about the "food disconnect" syndrome.

Posted in: The Road Less Traveled

Pretty cool, but please hang some tapestries on the wall or maybe some acoustic pads.

Posted in: BDS at UNM (UPDATED)

I have attended an Abunimah lecture here in Santa Fe and yes it was Theater of the Absurd. At every absurdity, the audience would roar its approval. And, I would add that the people there have an odd profile, in every case they are what I would call "lost souls". Older Jews (mostly) who have renounced their heritage, gone secular and identify their Jewishness and the One Great Evil. So it is not too surprising they identify with Abunimah and his absurd defense of holocaust victims.

I find it hard to believe any cantor in New Mexico would be excommunicated for smoking pot. That sounds made up.

Posted in: And .... Done!

Hee is one Palestinian I would enjoy sharing Jerusalem with! BTW the Za'atar herb he uses is the biblical "Hyssop, which grows wild all around Jerusalem".

Posted in: More on the Wall Women

The Arabs are offended at the Jews religious practice on the Temple Mount, so Jews are forced to pray at the wall. Just replace the group names and means of observance, and it is obvious who the Jews are imitating. I am sorry to say that females to Jews are just another dog to kick around. When are we going to stop letting the Arabs dictate our behavior?

Posted in: The House that Sam Built

Unfortunately everything Sam Walton's inheritors built was done by importing slave labor while selling off American assets. Old Sam must be mortified in his grave at his children's greedy anti-American behavior.

Posted in: Myths and Facts

Even if the benevolent aspect of the rescue operation were exaggerated in post-holocaust myth, it still is vastly better treatment offered Jews than some nations. So this just shows there is a fuzzy line between historical revisionism and brutal honesty.

Posted in: Zacatecas!

Great! And don't forget that Zacatecas was a real hotbed of subversive Jewish culture since they fled the inquisition (Conversos). Many Zacatecans moved on to other areas like California and New Mexico. These are now the crypto-Jews, many of them became devout Catholics.
