What Leftists Mean: Support the Savage

As a looney lefitist in the NY vandalizes approved ads in the subway, under the guise of  "freedom of expression" (while not allowing others to freely express themselves), her message is very clear.

She sides with the savages.  She finds it offensive that Jihad is considered "savage."  Savages are those who murder in the name of Jihad; those that murdered the US Ambassador to Libya are savages, those that attacked the World Trade Center are savages, those that stab to death Israeli infants and blow up buses are savages.  That's Jihad.

CNN and MSNBC Pundit Mona Eltahawy is a supporter of Savage Jihad.  Her billboard could be easily summed up as follows:

Make sure you know which side you're on.

Do you have any idea how offensive that is?

Found on Facebook.

I think Islam's religious tolerance can be more than appreciated by the way the Palestinians burned down and destroyed all the synagogues in Gush Katif after Israel left Gaza in 2005.

Or the way they burned down Kever Yosef / Joseph's Tomb in Shechem.

Or the way they can't even be bothered to do maintenance work on Islam's third "holiest" site, in a way without desecrating the rock of the "Dome of the Rock."  Instead, Muslims think (or behave) as if the gold dome is more important and holy than the rock itself, and place scaffolding ON THE ROCK.

Or the way they routinely play football/soccer on the Temple Mount.

Bottom line is that the Islamic world is far more upset over a silly film than the routine, daily slaughter of Moslems (by Moslems) in Syria or anywhere else in the world.

Or as in the words of Thomas Friedman, who I rarely agree with:

"..an insult — even one as stupid and ugly as the anti-Islam video on YouTube that started all of this — does not entitle people to go out and attack embassies and kill innocent diplomats. That is not how a proper self-governing people behave. There is no excuse for it. It is shameful"

Facebook UnLikes Third Intifada Page

Haaretz Reports the Good News -- Facebook trashes the "third intifada"

The Facebook page calling for a third Palestinian intifada was taken down on Tuesday, after widespread calls for it to be removed.

On the original page, Palestinians are urged to take to the streets after Friday prayers on May 15 and begin an uprising in the vain of the first two popular uprisings. "Judgment Day will be brought upon us only once the Muslims have killed all of the Jews," reads the call. The page had more than 340,000 fans.

Although the page was removed, a new page already exists in its place with the same name of "Third Palestinian Intifada."

The Anti Defamation League had filed an official complaint against Facebook for allowing the page to remain up.

In addition, Minister Yuli Edelstein wrote a letter to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, warning that the page includes calls to kill Jews and to liberate Jerusalem through violence.

The page incites to violence and violates Facebook content regulations, wrote Edelstein. (Haaretz)

On the "Third Intifada" Facebook page, it stated:

"If Facebook closes this page, all Muslims will boycott it forever!"

Kudos to Facebook for not giving in to Islamic Terror (like youtube does all the time).

Deeply Offended Muslim to Sue Coca-Cola

My good friend Lurker called me up yesterday to lambaste me over the "secret coke" recipe I posted on the blog --he quoted snopes and claims the recipe posted on the blog is not authentic.

Regardless, at least one Muslim in Israel is outraged over the publication of the alleged top-secret formula, and is planning on suing Coke-Cola for not advertising that alcohol is one of the secret ingredients -- which is forbidden by Islamic law.

Translation of article from NRG: (source in Hebrew)

Following the disclosure of Coca Cola's secret recipe a Muslim from Israel's Jezreel Valley filed a lawsuit against the company, claiming they "deeply insulted his religious sentiments"

Following reports that alcohol is among the ingredients of Coca-Cola, an Israeli Muslim from the Jezreel Valley decided to sue the company claiming it has caused grievous injury to his religious sentiments. "If it is true, then it's a scandal. They fooled me all these years, causing me to transgress and sin."

Muhammad Mifra, age 67 from the village of Sulam near Afula, drank Coke for decades. Yesterday (Tuesday) after exposure to the popular drink's secret recipe, he grew angry. He discovered that he may have transgressed one of the most severe sins of the Muslim religion - drinking alcohol - and now he intends to sue the company.

The revelation of Coca Cola's 125 year old secret recipe angered Mifra, a devout Muslim, and his family. If it is true that the recipe contains alcohol, then many Muslims around the world have for years been drinking alcohol against the laws of Islam.

Through his lawyer Arieh Licht, Mifra sent an angry letter yesterday to Coke. "My client is very devout and performed the Muslim Hajj visit to Mecca," wrote Mr. Licht. "He used to drink Coke every day, and through various publications he learned that there is alcohol in bottles of Coca-Cola."

The letter also said: "If this is the case, then you caused serious damage to my client's deep religious sentiments." Mifra demanded from the company to know whether there is truth in the reports of the recipe, and told them that he will stop drinking Coke till he receives a reply from the company.

"I'm going to file against you, on behalf of my client, a class action lawsuit for money damages, for causing him to sin for years by drinking Coca Cola," wrote Mr. Licht at the end of the letter, "unless you let me know immediately that there is no alcohol in Coke."

The World Coca-Cola company said in response: "The ingredients of Coca-Cola, are listed on the product label. For many years various parties have tried to crack the secret formula of Coca - Cola, but without success. The exact formula of Coca - Cola is the company's trade secret. Soft drinks of Coca - Cola are not alcoholic. "

Class action suit? Pathetic!

Dubai has slightly more intelligence than Mifra and his lawyer.

A top official of the Dubai Municipality (DM) has ruled out any possibility of alcohol content in Coca Cola sold in Dubai and the UAE market.

He was responding to international media reports claiming that Coca Cola’s tightly-guarded recipe had been leaked out and that it contained certain percentage of alcohol, among a number of other ingredients, in the secret flavour formula.

The fuss about the fizz oozed out after the recipe was reportedly published by National Public Radio’s ‘This American Life’ earlier this week.

Khalid Mohammed Shareef, director of Food Control Department at the DM told The Gulf Today over the phone that there was no alchoholic content in Coke sold in the UAE.

“The regulations mandate that ingredients should be declared on label and it’s always verified and tested when required,” he added.

“The country has got sufficient mechanisms to ensure that all food items consumed by the residents are safe and free from all prohibited ingredients,” Shareef indicated.

“No alcoholic content was found out in our lab tests in the beverage. The food testing laboratories in the country are operating at the highest global standards, also networked with the all the labs across the world,” he confirmed. (Gulf Today)

Chuchill to Jews: Assimilate and your troubles will stop.

In 1937, Britain's leader, Winston Churchill arrived at the same conclusion as Theodore Herzel:

For Jews to survive as a people, and to avoid antisemitism, they need to assimilate (while Herzel said they should just outright "convert".)

In a recently found article entitled, "How The Jews Can Combat Persecution", Churchill wrote about the Jews:

"The central fact which dominates the relations of Jew and non-Jew is that the Jew is 'different'.

"He looks different. He thinks differently. He has a different tradition and background. He refuses to be absorbed."

Though, as Herzel, Churchill wasn't specifically "targeting Jews", and he also praised them as "sober, industrious, law-abiding" and urged Britons to stand up for the race against persecution.

So as anti-Israel sentiment and antisemitism continue to race across Europe today, is the solution to remove one's kippa, and hunker down in the trenches to disguise one's Judaism?

I don't blame Churchill -- he was thinking "pragmatically".

Moving to Israel and building a Jewish State was such a "crazy" idea, that he probably didn't think it was viable.

It's still not viable today.

Yet we continue to survive anyway.
