Posted in: Palin is qualified, much more than Obama

1. Palin didn't get much government experience before she quit. 2. She was governor of a state that exists only because Big Government in Washington bought the place. Alaskan Big Government keeps itself afloat through the enormous Socialistic tax burden it heaps on oil companies, that we pay for when we buy gas. Palin distributed oil revenues as Welfare to every Alaskan. If there is any state in the Union that deserves the title of Socialist Welfare State, it is Palin's Alaska. If she ever gets to Washington there'll be a lot more of her tax, tax, welfare, welfare. Now wonder we called herthe red state governor.

Why are you providing space for porn ? You should be ashamed of yourselves. Those images are of prostituted young women enslaved by traffickers, and they are used to ensnare and impoverish pathetic losers. Shame on on you.

Why does JTA allow ads for porn in it's web site ? I found the ad below under the article about the arrest of the Jordanian convoy suspect : " Discussions About this Article Elsewhere Trackback URL: http://www.jta.org/trackback/1010186/ youporn search engine experience From youporn search engine · 01/15/10 01:54 AM [...] The institute holds controlling interest in Times Publishing which owns the newspaper, Congressional Quarterly and other magazines.

I thought this service existed to talk about Jewish topics not to help oppressors of women and human traffickers sell images of their victims to perverted and pathetic peepers.

What's a Judeo-Christian ?

JTA is not giving out false information. The story is only reporting that some veterans say it is illegal.

BTW, in answer to Mr. Brownstein's Q, Jews sit in the Parliaments of both Turkey and Iran.

Posted in: Jews in Palestine

The REAL point is that it would be up to the settlers and the PA, not you buttinskies, Iran, Bill Kristol, the UN, the Kartei dingbats, J Street, or the State of Israel.

Posted in: Abbas the collaborator

A few Israelis MAY have committed war crimes. We can wait for the trial results, and I expect a trial. The important thing to remember is that accuations blaming all Israelis, or even all Zionists an assertion of collective guilt, a hateful act, and in American law, a precursor to, if not an actual element of a hate crime. JTA should probably refer posters who make such hateful remarks to the USDoJ, so that that organization can more effectively deal with the perps when the need arrises.

Posted in: Cohen: Enough about the Holocaust already

Mr Kolsky, The police of New York always had firearms. Perhaps, you are thinking of London. Mrs Mavrikos, There are only 2 types of Jews. Those who wish to divide Jews, and those who don't. It seems to me that almost all of the Jews who post here are of the first type. Everyone else, While I think Mr. Cohen is incorrect, he isn't an enemy, and to write that he is, is to take on the part of Acher and the kapos. Be ashamed.

Posted in: Imagining Jewish America's future (or lack thereof)

Mr Glasser, It was not LIFE or LOOK magazine that predicted the end of Judaism in America by 2000, but rather a comment made by an Orthodox rabbi, who predicted that we'd all either go to Israel, or stay in the US and become soul-less suburbanites. I believe that it was in TIME magazine. I remember thinking, "what an idiot", which is about what I think of Uzi Silber's silly article. He and Margolis might start talking with the young Israeli Shapardim and the 'Russians', because the majority of them are definitely not headed in the Orthodox direction. The Conservative move3ment is the only one in the progressive movement that is in trouble. As a devout Jew, who travels regulary between Israel and the rest of the world, I don't remember ever seeing any bar to Jews living in the diaspora. That's nonsense. As a ReformaDox, I don't remember seeing anything in Talmud that says Jews to be Orthodox to be Jews. Most of the shabbat liturgy and prayers were composed AFTER Talmud, so the streamlining of Judish observance by Conservatives, Reformers, Liberals, Reconstruction, and Renewal cannot be a violation of Talmud. 250 years ago, the Vilna Gaon excommunicated Chassids, so obviously, Chassids aren't Orthodox. The rabbis of Spain, Italy, and France excommunicated Moshe ben Maimon, so obviously he wasn't a Jew. For thousands of years Jews, like Acher and toiday's Orthodox have aided the Nations in isolating and killing off other Jews. Don't forget, the kapos in the camps were all Orthodox big shots. It is the insulting arrogance of Orthodox pontificators that keeps me from claiming to be Orthodox. We Jews are called to be the light of the world, and since Orthodoxy utterly fails in that Mitzvah, Orthodoxy can no longer claim to be Kosher. Therefore I will deny being Orthodox, because I am Kosher.
