Top Post...
Ya know Magda, for years I worked in the media (not as a writer as I'm sure you English majors can tell) doing network news, all kinds of nasty stuff..... and frankly the experience has taught me: no one sitting on the sidelines has a fucking clue as to what goes on in the war zone and worse yet -- NO ONE in the middle of it has a clue either....
Who or what blog you deem media (and the internet is media) credible is of course, your business. Based on my reading, its Jew bashing... but that's MY unbiased opinion...
Stories, articles, video footage hits the air. Stories, articles, video footage retracted, corrected or found to be outright lies and yes some staged photo & video clips...
What I see in a few threads here, is serious Jew bashing, from the sidelines yet.
Where's the deep politics? Does that come when the bashing is over?
Shiny things? You mean bullets, RPG's, Rockets, Missiles, those kind of things? Yeah hon, they distract me, as a Vietnam Veteran they've ALWAYS distracted me. :bebored:

Magda Hassan Wrote:David, this is not what I posted. If you want to know the context of this though the poster is referring to some group who claim to be for peace but are out there supporting Israel government actions (which are military and not peaceful) S/He seems to be saying they have not thought their actions through and doesn't want to be associated with them. But this is just differences of opinion between some left factions and is not of interest to me and I don't know why it is of interest to you.
I have NO idea what you are trying to say here. Are you saying that protesting is good as it works so there should be a Jane Fonda type to go and pose with tanks and protest? What exactly are you protesting for or against? Hamas or Israel? Or Palestinians or Jews? Or war in general? Jane Fonda? Sorry David. I just have no idea what you are trying to say here. Or even if it is a joke.
Don't allow yourself to be distracted by shiny things David. Who cares what a blogger calls him or her self. Look at the book not the cover. Did you read what they said? Did you check out the links in the article?
In case you didn't here is the link where the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (the part of the UN that look after the worlds refugees and who ran the school that the Israeli military bombed) speaks officially of how Israel has retracted their statement that there were hamas rockets fired from the school. http://leninology.blogspot.com/2009/01/u...raeli.html
Here is the link where it says that 3 UN run schools were hit on Tuesday. Well, to paraphrase Oscar Wilde to lose one school is a misfortune but to lose two looks like carelessness. What does that make three? Looks like deliberate targeting to me.

Here is the link from the UN about the family killed at the school a designated refuge centre:

Here is the link from the UN stating that there were no Hamas in the school either refugees or casualties: http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0...87,00.html
Here is the link showing Israeli arrogance (and displacement activity) in wanting to charge the UN with harboring Hamas in it buildings. It also shows that Israel’s ability to discern friendly and hostile targets seems to be in considerable doubt as they shot up a building containing their own military. Very professional.

And just to make sure here is another link that shows that Israel is admitting that there were no rockets fired from the school by Hamas or any one else. http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/...chool.html
Now, I know that links above are only from the MSM and eyewitnesses to the events and not from or approved by the AIPAC newsletter editor and are there fore biased but I think Lenin or Fifi or Mambo No5 or what ever s/he likes to call themselves has put a respectable bit of work together. Try reading it. Then comment.
