On April 26, Anthony H. Cordesman made two outrageous statements: "The images of both sides are becoming 'suicide bombing' versus 'atrocity.'"
as well as this gem, "Previously home to some 13,000 people, the camp
[Jenin] was largely destroyed during eight days of fierce clashes earlier this
month between Israeli forces and Palestinian fighters."
We've come to
expect inflated propaganda from the 'Palestinians', all they have to work with
is a repetition of each their lies. By adopting their methods of printing
material without corroborating evidence, ABC has obviously brought itself to the
lowest level of 'journalism'. Far too many of the American press have
demonstrated that they no longer operate with moral standards.

Hanan
Ashwari community@cnn.com
Hanan Ashwari has been very visible as an anti-Israel apologist for the
Palestinians.
Zionist NY describes
her very well: "Despite this appalling record of lies and
misrepresentation, failed policy initiatives, personal aggrandizement at the
expense of her constituents, and over-all propagandistic advocacy worthy of Jos.
Goebbels, she continues to be hosted by American media and speaking engagements
on a regular, frequent basis. She is given a fawning reception as a "woman
of accomplishment", a role-model and near-saint. Those of you who may be
inclined to take her at face value, here is an example: "And it's the first
time in history that I see a democracy that is allowed to suppress a whole
people and to occupy other people's lands. And to carry out a policy of
assassinations and cold blooded murder and destruction... even uprooting of
trees and crops. And yet still maintain that it is a democracy... with the most
intricate system of racism and dehumanization I have ever seen."
(applause). [Speech
in Portland, 11-1-2001]
These are quoted from an article from Ashrawi on her website called 'A
Question of Conscience'
by Dr. Hanan Ashrawi dated January 11, 2002 and states...."Rather than
succumb to the ultra-nationalist, xenophobic version of popular politics that
attempts to rationalize the worst of Israeli measures against the Palestinians
while blaming the victims for the horrors being inflicted upon them, this
distinctive minority has dared to challenge the lies and distortions and to take
a stand despite the high price to be paid. Among the journalists, Amira Haas and
Gideon Levy stand out as examples of courage and honesty." and she thanks
the likes of these groups.."Organizations like Rabbis for Human Rights, the
Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions, Gush Shalom, and many others have
also steered a steady course despite the turbulent waves." She is also very
good at sticking these little gems into her diatribes..."A soldier who aims
at Palestinian children's heads and etches a notch on his gun barrel with every
"kill" will ultimately have to face more scars on his own psyche and
moral character."
This woman was been has been a thorn in the side of Israel and Jews worldwide
for as long as has been able to speak or spew. Ashrawi is an accomplished spin
master and you really must read between the line when you read her articles. You
will be hard pressed to find this woman shed a tear for Israeli casualties of
suicide bombers or for the children that are sent to blow them up. She is an
intelligent woman and she know that Arafat and the other Arab countries are the
problem but as long as she can spew she will spin her rhetoric and blame it all
on Israel.
Ashwari is a
perfect example of why CNN is among the top anti-Israel media in the coverage of the Middle East.
Please continue to bombard them again with e-mails to prevent this woman (for lack of a better
word) from having her face shown or voice heard spewing her vile 'Palestinian'
garbage to the people of the world. I don't know about you but I get seriously
ill every time I see CNN or any other news organization give this woman airtime.
You know the JWD drill already ....get emailing CNN, the BBC, etc. and demand
that they remove this cancerous growth or, at the very least, start questioning
her statements on-air!

Cairo Times caitimes@cairotimes.com
Here are a few quotes from the From the page Call To Arms Call to Arms page "Last week at a town meeting for American citizens held at the US embassy, a group of Americans brought signs protesting America's support for the ongoing Israeli rampages."
Second is this gem ... ."In this week's Cairo Times, we tell the story of a pair of brave expatriate Cairenes who put their beliefs into practice–
joining the hundreds of international activists traveling to Palestine to serve as witnesses and human shields."
and lastly ..."It's vital that this movement comes from standard everyday Americans. As a dual Egyptian/American citizen, I could write to my own hometown paper, the Chicago Tribune. But at the end of that day, my name is Arab and my opinions won't carry nearly as much weight as those of someone named Bob or Fred."
I added the third quote for the simple reason, the Egyptian/American author of this drivel (which is full of lies and historical inaccuracies) thinks that Americans are going to come to his aid after his own Palestinian brethren killed 5 Americans at the Jerusalem University. Aside from all that his statement 'It's vital that this movement comes from standard everyday Americans.' is racial profiling at its worst! I could quote the whole article but perhaps you should spend some time reading this site. A reminder that the Watchdog is always looking out for you and welcomes all comments.

Brian Wood's article, 'Nazi
Cow' and Running out of Water: The Jenin Refugee Camp is Invaded Again ,
is full of 'reports' that don't even make logical sense: "Israeli
soldiers physically and verbally assaulted this same international aid worker,
Cahoime, 23, Wednesday for trying to deliver water to the men who were being
detained inside the camp; they were forced to sit under the hot sun and not
given water or food. As Cahoime approached, she was called an 'Arab fucker' and
a 'Nazi cow' and beaten. Her injuries are not severe and she continues to be one
of the few international aid workers in the Camp." The site also has
this article by Mina Eltaieb, Have
We Really Come That Far,
which contains this passage that also goes far into the realms of fantasy: "We
had heard the reports of the devastation caused by the IDF in Ramallah just days
before they moved into Jenin, yet the world remained silent. Silent as they
arrested and blindfolded hundreds of males between the ages of 14 and 65. Silent
as reports of civilians being used as human shields seeped out. Silent as the
injured were left to bleed to death in the streets and denied access to
ambulances that were targeted by the IDF. Silent as reporters and journalists
were shot at and forced out of the "closed military zone.""
Once again we have
an American group 'reporting' on events that they have no knowledge about. They
make no effort to verify the truth of anything they hear before they propagate
these outrageous myths. Can these people really know how much damage they are
doing with their support of a 'cause' that doesn't exist? It is a mitzvah to
lift the veil of ignorance from someone's eyes. Why not send them an e-mail and
let them know the truth.

"To the degree that U.S. policymakers believe backing Israeli conquest
and aggression in Palestine advances U.S. long-term business interests, support
for Israel continues. To the degree that peace helps solidify U.S. control,
peace is acceptable. But those domestic political realities alone do not drive
U.S. financial and diplomatic support that allows Israel to continue to defy
international law in its 35-year military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza". These
two quotes come from the Common Dreams Newscenter, read
this article at Common
Dreams and other
here and judge for yourself. "Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has
skillfully used the "war on terrorism" banner to expand further the
level of violence against Palestinians that the United States will accept, and
the expressions of reflexive support for Israel in Congress have never been
stronger".
Articles like this
one are extremely dangerous. Not just because the facts cannot be corroborated
but because they are extremely dangerous to the State of Israel at a time when
support and solidarity are most important. So go beyond the writers of this
drivel and post your comments to the editor; after all, he has the last say in
whether this article and others like it are printed. Hold him to task!

Another media alert for CNN International.
Regardless of what
CNN comes up with as a reason or excuse for how it treated the whole Keinan
family situation is just plain crap! To air an interview of a Palestinian mother
sending her child off to blow up innocent Israelis as you or I would send our
children off to camp, is absolutely intolerable. To glorify suicide bombers when
they should have aired the interview of the victims, is is also sickening. This
has go to stop. You all need to post your emails to CNN and let them know that
this is plain wrong and that you will not tolerate it anymore. Do it .... do it
now!

On the heels of

Here is a quote from an article written by Alex R. Shalom and Stephen R. Shalom
called 'Turmoil
in Palestine' .
This is the quote..."As the occupied Palestinian territories suffer their
worst paroxysm of violence in years, with the casualties, as always,
overwhelmingly Palestinian, the mainstream media, also as always, focus on
peripheral questions, offer misleading answers, and ignore the underlying causes
of the conflict. The fundamental, neglected reality is that the Palestinian
people have been denied their basic rights for years by the Israeli government,
aided and abetted by its Washington ally". Then their is this audio clip
from a CounterSpin (already on JWD) interview with Nasser Aruri on the Bush
Proposal. This gem can be found at Naseer
Aruri on Bush's Israeli-Palestinian Proposal (6/28/02)
. Be sure to listen to the tail end of the sound bite for the reall slam.
FAIR (now that's a
misnomer for you) does a good job of hiding the anti-Israel rhetoric behind
'neutral' links from their site. But, remember -- if you link to their site, or
worse, pay them money to advertise your site there, you are as guilty as someone
who posts the offending articles on their own page! We are planning a page

'What Israel Has Done' by
Edward W. Said (who will be getting his own alert on JWD): "Despite
Israel's effort to restrict coverage of its destructive invasion of the West
Bank's Palestinian towns and refugee camps, information and images have
nevertheless seeped through." Then there is this: "Phrases such as
'plucking out the terrorist network,' 'destroying the terrorist infrastructure'
and 'attacking terrorist nests (note the total dehumanization involved) are
repeated so often and so unthinkingly that they have given Israel the right to
destroy Palestinian civil life, with a shocking degree of sheer wanton
destruction, killing, humiliation and vandalism." If that isn't enough to
get you cursing try this one..."By what inhuman calculus did Israel's army,
using dozens of tanks and armored personnel carriers, along with hundreds of
missile strikes from US-supplied Apache helicopter gunships, besiege Jenin's
refugee camp for over a week, a one-square-kilometer patch of shacks housing
15,000 refugees and a few dozen men armed with automatic rifles and no missiles
or tanks, and call it a response to terrorist violence and a threat to Israel's
survival?"
There is enough
material here to keep JWD busy for weeks but frankly we have more sludge to
ferret out of the Internet. So, here you go faithful readers, we guarantee that

We are declaring a

ATROCITY BEGETS ANOTHER
Published
on July 24, 2002, looks like this ... "Israel's rocket attack on a heavily
populated neighborhood in the Gaza Strip Tuesday, in which several children were
killed, was an atrocity. There is no other word to describe it. Prime Minister
Ariel Sharon's government calls such attacks self-defense. This one was targeted
at the home of Salah Shehada, founder of the military wing of the extremist
group Hamas, a man suspected by Israel of involvement in attacks, including
suicide bombings. After some confusion, Palestinian"
Again they leave
out the word 'terrorist' but they say that Shehada was suspected of involvement
in attacks! Come on this man led the terrorist bombers to their targets. This is
common knowledge. He orchestrated more suicide bombing than almost anyone else,
he created more widows, orphans, bloodshed and mayhem that almost anyone else
and they talk about what the Israelis did as if it was an atrocity. If anyone

The following quotes come from the article at UN
expert: Israeli settlements, house demolitions are war crimes
"Israel's policy of building settlements in Palestinian territories and
destroying Arab homes and farmland is a war crime, a United Nations investigator
said on Friday." "Kothari criticized the destruction of homes
during Israeli military offensives like the brutal attack on Jenin refugee
camp." As well as this gem .. "Israel is intentionally destroying
olive groves, orange orchards and other Palestinian agricultural land and is
responsible for severe "misuse of and hoarding of water resources,"
including cutting off pipelines to Palestinian villages, he said".
Obviously, it is
too much to expect an investigator to be impartial, honest, and professional
when he is from the United Nations. To be so blatantly anti-Israel is sickening.
The whole system needs to be changed but that won't happen until someone removes
Arafat's right hand man, Kofi Annon (or he drops dead on his own - dealers

KPFK
Radio - Middle East In Focus comments@kpfk.org
These quotes are from "Pacifica Radio Plays Hatred" at the
above address. In recent years, it has repeatedly provided a forum for racists,
anti-Semites and virulent critics of Israel. Virtually all of the coverage of
the Arab-Israeli conflict starts from the presumption of Israel as villain and
the Palestinians as victims. Thus, the program Middle East in Focus, heard twice
monthly, devoted an entire edition to "Palestine Solidarity Day"
in 1992. In an interview, on October 21st, Ralph Schoenman, a frequent guest on
Pacifica, condemned the agreement in even stronger language. He claimed that the
Palestinians were given a police force solely "for the purposes of
suppressing the Palestinian population itself". But it is clear that
Schoenman would have settled for nothing less than the total dismantling of the
Jewish State. He falsely claimed that "In Israel today over 95%, 96% [of
the land] is administered under rules where you are obliged to prove four
generations of maternal Jewish descent to be entitled to live on land, lease it,
sharecrop it, own it." Schoenman's assertions are nonsense.
By now you should
know the drill. The email above is for KPFK Radio and you should let them know
that the radio show "Middle East in Focus" is anti-Jewish/Israel and
should be removed, shut down, closed for good .... you get the idea.

fake "suicide missions" may be staged as is done often in Israel in
order for the Zionists to obtain political advantage, to justify extreme
repressive measures and to turn America even more against Islam." This
sickening quote was from the article LOS(T)

Zionists ultimate goal is to destroy all Arab resistance, including Iraq, in
order to become supreme in the region, control Jerusalem and than build their
Third Temple which will be the necessary event for their Messiah to
arrive." This garbage is from "Suicide
Bombers" Coming Soon to the U.S.A.It
gets worse with this gem "We are now wondering if some of the other racist
anti-Mexican e-mails that we received, and that were signed by White
Supremacists types, might have actually come from Jewish bigots. We have learned
that Jews are very treacherous, sneaky and masters of deception. What Ariel
Sharon is doing in Palestine speaks volumes about the nature of the Jewish
character." found on

This is a
bilingual online news service published from Los Angeles, Alta California and is

beyond. There is only one problem I have yet to find the NEWS! This site is
chock full of anti-Semitism that is sickening to say the least. There is no
credibility here, this site is the true definition of 'hate speech'.
The Lutheran lutheran@elca.org
This monthly magazine is an archtypal example of irresponsible
reporting. Their regular column, SYNOD REPORTS
, misuses words like 'palestine' and 'occupation' throughout
the piece. Here is as excerpt: "The Rocky Mountain
Synod's resolution condemned all acts of violence by both
Israelis and Palestinians, and encouraged ELCA members to
continue support for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan
(and Palestine). The resolution also asks the synod bishop and
other ELCA leaders to continue appeals to President Bush and the
U.S. government to "take a clear position in regard to
ending the occupation" and to advocate for international
observers." Then, there is the despicable piece which
actually attacks Judaism itself, called Oh, Jerusalem!
:"We have to reject a racist, tribal God who prefers one
group of people against others. The common premises of all three
religions is that God is a universal God a God of all
peoples and nations, a God of justice for all peoples and
that all human beings are worthy of equal respect."
"...This whole tribalizing of the region is unacceptable.
And for us, as Christians, it's foundational that in Christ
"there is no longer Jew and Greek, circumcised and
uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free"
(Colossians 3:11). All people are God's people. It's the
theological basis for an ethic of justice, of mutual regard as
fellow human beings, children of God, and, so, for peace among
Jews, Muslims and Christians, and between Israelis and
Palestinians." But, the worst thing in this magazine
(although I admit, it had some tough 'competition' for
that rating), is an article by "rabbi" Michael
Lerner (he has special alerts, not only on our site, but others -
like Masada2000's
Self-hating Jews page - because he is a lying traitor and NOT
a rabbi at all.) His article, Offer Israel
Tough Love , is one of the vilest piece of lies and blatant
anti-Israel propaganda that it has ever been my misfortune to
read! As there is limited space in these alerts and the entire
article should be quoted as an example of anti-Israel rhetoric,
I'll leave it up to you to read it for yourselves.
It is ironic that the site containing
these articles was sent to me by a Lutheran friend of mine (of 25
years standing.) He noted that there was absolutely no
"Israeli side of the conflict" given in the magazine
and wrote to ask for the facts (and told me to "sic 'em".) Everything written about the Middle East is about the
hardships placed on the 'Palestinians'. Sure you can read their
resolutions and think they want peace and equality for both sides
but when you dig a little you'll find that this is as
pro-Palestinian/anti-Israeli a site as you will find (and it's
anti-JEWISH, as well.)
Media
Monitors Network Editor@MediaMonitors.net
Their mantra is ..... 'where truth prevails'. This has got to be the biggest
flight of fantasy in the cosmos. Following are excerpts from the following
article "Is the US in Bed with a Rogue Nation?" written by
Joseph Clifford who we will be looking at a little more closely now. In his
article when he mentions 'a rogue nation' he is referring to Israel.
"Is a "rogue nation" one who illegally invades another's lands
and brutally occupies that territory for 35 years?" and "Is a 'rogue
nation" one who takes the water from conquered people and allows themselves
350 liters per day per person while leaving the conquered people with 100 liters
per day per person? (The World Health Organization says the amount to meet
minimum needs per person is 130 liters per person per day.)" and "Is a
"rogue nation" one who completely shuts off the water for the
conquered people during droughts, but continues to use tremendous quantities to
fill their swimming pools and water their lawns?"
They say they
speak the truth but the obviously wouldn't know the truth if it became animate
and bit them in their collective asses. This is anti-Israel ranting of
monumental proportions. There (as usual) is not one mention of the suicide
bombers who kill innocent Israelis nor a single mention of Arabs who walk into
Israeli homes and gun down entire unarmed families. Judging by their articles,
that must be Media Monitors idea of a fine Democratic Palestinian state under
the leadership of Chairman Arafat the good! Please I am about to lose my
breakfast. JWD will not stop till we root out the evil doers. Now that we've
found these scum, you know what you have to do...e-mail...e-mail...e-mail....
MICHAEL
MORAN - MSNBC editor@commondreams.org
By Moran's own definition -- "someone who has been convicted of a
terrorist act, or someone who has admitted the act or been caught in the
act" -- even the World trade Center bombers could barely be defined as
terrorists. Since they (like Palestinian bombers) commit suicide, they will
never be "convicted," nor will they ever "admit" their
involvement, and frequently there are no surviving witnesses to prove they were
"caught in the act." Moran also quips "What we don't do (and this
is what irks Honestreporting) is throw the word around at every Palestinian who
opposes the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip". These
quotes comes from the article "The Terrorist Thing" linked to above.
This response is
from HonestReporting who (after all) was the target of Moran's ranting.
"Moran again fabricates falsehoods and attributes them to HonestReporting.
We challenge Moran to produce any statement -- real or implied -- that
HonestReporting applies terrorist to every Palestinian". This is the proper
definition of terrorism ... "Actually, HonestReporting sticks to the
standard definition of "terrorist" as set down by U.S. law:
"...premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against
noncombatant targets..." [Title 22 of the US Code, Section 2656f(d)]"
Als [Amnesty International] being that we are Jews we know the when the conditions are reversed a
terrorist is till a terrorist......"In fact, HonestReporting labels a
"terrorist" anyone who fits the criteria. We therefore approve of the
Jerusalem Post headline (June 13): "Alleged Jewish Terrorists on Trial Next
Week." Yes, Jews who intentionally target innocent civilians should also be
called terrorists".

Miftah.org info@miftah.org
Miftah is an extremely dangerous site, both because of the totally anti-Israel
slant of its own statements (there is hardly a mention of blame for anyone
but Israelis) and for being a place where anyone with an article full of
hate (and lacking any sense of reality) can have it printed (and too
often quoted by others as 'documentation'.) There are nearly 400 of these
'independent' articles alone (that isn't even counting their 'True

and much more). Many of the Independent
Articles are by
some of the most notorious 'Israel-haters', both 'jew', arab,and 'whatever'
to be found anywhere and not a single one is subject to outside corroboration
let alone required to produce evidence. Since every article 'deserves' to

tackles one or two articles and writes a comment to their author and/or the

The
Muslim News info@muslimnews.co.uk
The opening paragraph of this terrorist newspaper is "The political
landscape in the Middle East will not be the same again. Following the Israeli
atrocities over the past few weeks, the outrage in the Arab and Muslim world is
unlikely to subside before major developments have taken place. The Zionists
sealed off many parts of the West Bank and Gaza while its troops carried out
untold savagery, similar to those committed in Sabra and Chatilla Palestinian
refugee camps in Lebanon twenty years ago. Ariel Sharon, the hawkish Prime
Minister, was implicated in the earlier atrocities and is the mastermind behind
the present ones. While he played a covert role in the old massacres he feels no
need to hide his crimes this time." This particular article called 'Killing
Fields of Palestine' and you can read the complete article here
This article is
just one example of the blatantly anti-Israel garbage that comes out of this
website. Here is a little of what they say they are about, "The Muslim News
is well-known for its objectivity and authenticity of its news." What a
contradiction in terms that is! They openly support and defend terrorist actions
against America as well as Israel!
The
Nation associates@thenation.com
This site is rife with pro-Palestinian crapola. This is supposed to be a
balanced media outlet but as you can see from these examples from the article
called.'New
Mideast Approach': Flawed?
it is anything but...."Segal's desire represents an unspoken effort by
Jewish Israelis to avoid responding constructively to demands that they address
the misery of the vast numbers of Arab refugees who were driven from the area
that is now Israel, refugees who have languished for more than a half-century in
wretched encampments in Lebanon and Jordan. This avoidance may be
understandable, but it is a deal-breaker. Peace cannot come to Palestine until
Israeli Jews transform their nation into a secular state and make amends to
those who lost their homes." and there is this one ... "A second
problem is Segal's absurd and demeaning insistence that a state of Palestine not
be allowed to import weapons. Palestinians must be permitted to ward off
Israel's relentless attacks on them. The expressions of outrage by Israel and
the United States at the discovery of an arms shipment bound for Palestine were
deliriously hypocritical. Until the Palestinians cease to be victimized by
overwhelming (mostly US-supplied) Israeli firepower, there will be no peace in

fairly representative, but don't take our word for the vile nature of this site.
By all means, go there yourself, read this garbage (you can learn a lot from
these sites by looking at their links and friends pages, also) and then take
action. E-mail these people and tell them that you recognize their bull for what
it is and that they might check out some truly balanced media groups and find
out how it's done. We recommend that they start with ( IMRA

Click on the Middle East link from the above page to come up with some horrible
pages. A couple examples are as follows.....From the article Palestine:
Water Use and Distribution
comes this quote...."Continuous Israeli settlers' attacks on Palestinian
water tankers prevent Palestinian Water Tankers from reaching their water supply
source-taps--which have been cut off by local Isreali settlers who solely own
and control the flow of water in the region. Some of the Palestinian villages
such as Dier Ibzi and Qabalan are particularily suffering from the cut off of
the water supply by the settlers who are protected by the Israeli soldiers.
Also, Israeli settlers from Humesh settlement cut off water pipes, which served
seven surrounding villages. Many water tankers are obliged to return empty due to
the high demand on exhausted source-taps in areas under Palestinian
control." and also from this one The
tip of the iceberg?
comes another gem ...."Dawoud went on to describe how the Israeli forces
advanced on 1 and 2 April. "The attack began with helicopters. The church
was the obvious refuge for the policemen and security agents based at the Peace
Centre on Manger Square. Palestinians firmly believed there was a slim
possibility that [the Israelis] would enter the old town and the church square,
because of the religious sensitivities of the Western Christian world."
According to Dawoud, the church had always been respected as a sanctuary by the
conquerors of Palestine, including Israel when it occupied the West Bank in
1967. "The Israelis have been the only ones to attack the church," he
said. "The Persians did not attack it in 630; they did not destroy
anything." During the 39-day siege, the Israelis shot into the church and
set fire to several rooms in the compound, killing eight Palestinians and
wounding 25.
In the first quote
'continuous Israeli attacks on Palestinians' come on....! at the very least they
should try and make there lies believable and from the second one, well we all
know the outcome of the church siege and we know that everything said in this
article are lies, again. From an American website this is even more
reprehensible than what comes out of the Middle East. You must let your
government officials and this website know that you will not tolerate this kind
of anti-Israel and anti-Jewish garbage online.
The Palestine Chronicle editor@palestinechronicle.com
This is from yet another Ramzy Baroud (the editor-in-chief of this trash
"news" site) article: Shame
on A World Where Sharon is A Free Man
(he is like a malarial mosquito - he spreads disease from one person to
another) : "I wonder if Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has ran out
of ideas yet. Every time we assume that he has employed his last tactic possible
in his attempt to suppress the Palestinian people, the ever defiant 'warrior'
proves us wrong. His latest wild chase after 'Palestinian' activists cost
Palestinians 15 more lives and 148 wounded, adding to the Palestinian calendar
yet another tragedy to commemorate." There is this quote,
also:"...Hasn't Sharon killed enough? Will his endless list of Palestinians
to kill and places to bomb ever run out? Isn't a 52-year-long career in murder
plenty to satisfy the man's thirst for Palestinian blood? How many more
massacres would Sharon need to check out from his list before he dies, or quits
politics for good?"
Where does he come
up with these fantastic (as in pure fantasy) stories such as Sharon chasing
after palestinian activists?!! Why is there nothing about how about a Hamas
terrorist who, after a long campaign of sending 'suicide bombers' to Israel, hid
himself amongst civilians hoping that the Israelis wouldn't target him? Well,
what do you expect when these terrorists continue to send mass murderers aka
'suicide bombers' to kill innocent Israeli civilians. Contrary to what Baroud
states, Israelis do not intentionally target civilians; that is something he and
his fellow arabs have exclusive dibs on .
San
Jose Mercury News online@sjmercury.com
From the San Hose Mercury News comes this articleAttack by Israel shows disregard for civilian lives "IN the Middle East, unspeakable terror has struck again. Much of it is all too familiar: the bloodied, terrified faces of children, the bodies lying in lifeless heaps, the despair of grieving relatives. The toll is high: 15 dead, nine of them children, and nearly 150 injured. This time, however, the victims are Palestinian; the perpetrator, the government of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. Perversely, Sharon called the Tuesday night missile attack, which flattened a building in a crowded Gaza City neighborhood, a ``great success.'' Its target, Sheik Salah
Shehada, was killed. Shehada was the founder of the military wing of the Hamas, a radical Islamic group bent on destroying Israel."As well this from Terror Petition "While the media presents Shehadeh's wife as an innocent victim, a photo of Shehadeh and his wife in Time Magazine shows her in full military gear, holding an assault rifle. After seeing this image, it is difficult to categorize his wife's death as regrettable collateral damage."
Now when you read the last sentence in the quote above it says...." Shehada was the founder of the military wing of Hamas, a redical Islamic group bent on destroying Israel" ... notice how they very
deliberately
leave out the word terrorist. This man knew he was being targeted by the Israelis and chose to put his
family's life in danger by hiding out in a populated area. He had hoped the Israelis would not bomb him because Israeli's as a rule make very sure they target as few civilians as possible and none if it can be helped. In this case they took out their version of
al-qaeda leader Bin Laden and they did it with as few casualties as possible and after the Jenin Massacre that didn't happen you would think that the press would think about what they print before they print it. Well you win an alert with JWD for your inciteful crap. You all know the drill the email address is above.

From the article 'The
Palestinians, Close Up'
comes this..."Ata Sarasra crunches slowly over the cracked, gray-marbled
tiles and ruptured pipes where his kitchen used to be. A week before, Israeli
soldiers came to destroy his seven-bedroom home, a day after his son Hazim, 17,
blew himself up in a Jerusalem suicide attack that wounded five Israelis. As the
47-year-old father of five balances himself on the debris of his home, he looks
tired. He is worn by a week of mourning for his son, "who died a martyr,
thank God," and for his house. What little sleep he got the previous night
at his brother's home, where his family now stays, was disturbed by the sound of
three powerful explosions as the Israelis blew up more homes near his village,
Beit Jala."

More British garbage
Ummah.com info@ummah.com
From the article The
'Baby Bomber' and Other Photos These quotes are from the article: The 'Baby
Bomber' and Other Photos "A Palestinian filmmaker, Mohamed Bakri is
currently directing a film documentary about Jenin, the massacre and the lives
that were wrecked or forever changed." And this one "Need I say that
the Israeli media propaganda is indeed capable of forging much more than a
simple photograph? However, the attention that a simple photo has generated in
the media was incomprehensible; Israel's patrons around the world, in media and
governments raised hell, boasted over the Palestinian 'culture of violence',
forcing the White House to demand answers, while as always denying Palestinians
a fair chance in the same media that accuses them, to deliver those answers.'
"
The author of this piece of modern mythology, aka
bullshit, is Ramzy Baroud, who is also the editor of the Palestine Chronicle; he
is going to find a new home on our pages as well very soon. It is the arab
culture of violence that honors murderers that is the only 'cause' and it is
killing Jews every day. By contrast, the Jews don't even have SONGS that honor
killing or killers. The reasonless hate that comes out of these sites is
uncomprehensible to us; all we can do is report it.
Vanguard
News Network alinder@kvmo.net
Their Who We Are page
states: "We are a group of disgusted and disaffected writers driven out of
academia and journalism by the Semitical Correctness that has denatured our
culture. We have come together on the Internet to reclaim the American mind from
the Jews. In short, we are the Antibodies, and our advent heralds the day a
White political force rises and reasserts civilization." Their home page
has this: "...ONE STANDARD FOR JEWS, ANOTHER STANDARD FOR THE REST OF US.
Jews are racists who resent racial consciousness in others. Jews are the most
hypocritical race in the world."
What these 'people' are is a group of disgusting and
disqualified morons who don't deserve the space they are taking up on this
planet, let alone the Internet. They obviously have nothing better to do than
inflict their vile anti-Semitism on other people. As usual with this sort of
site, there is no purpose except to slander Jews and non-whites under the guise
of 'free speech.'
WGNU comments@wgnu.net
This radio station, based in St. Louis, MO, hosts a weekly radio talk show in
which its host, Frank Weltner, spews hate-filled garbage about his disdain for
Jews and Blacks; indeed anyone who is not White and Christian. He goes by Couch
Potato on the radio show and the WGNU web site at www.wgnu.nethe
goes by Mohammed von Goldstein on the jewwatch.com
website. Weltner is also the co-owner of JewWatch.com, a particularly obscene
anti-Jewish site (it already has its own alert link), which is co-owned by none
other than Don Black of White Pride World Wide aka Stormfront (
Here is a perfect
opportunity to flood this station with email letting the owners (Americans) know
just how vile and disgusting this program and this man are and that their is no
place for it in America.

Dear friend, I received word of your death by Israeli assassins on Jan. 17. This
comes from Emadeddin J. Fraitekh who is the Washington Report's Executive Web
Producer and editor. WRMEA is owned by American Educational Trust Inc. in

I feel a mixture of sadness and pride, helplessness and hope – a
bittersweet pill one has to swallow in the just Palestinian struggle against
Israeli oppression, tyranny, and occupation.

The following quotes have been taken from the following article Muslims
have 'right to kill 4 million'.
"Muslims have the right to kill 4 million Americans – including 2
million children – based on Islamic teachings, according to an article
attributed to an al-Qaida spokesman. "Furthermore, it is our right to fight
them with chemical and biological weapons, so as to afflict them with the fatal
maladies that have afflicted the Muslims because of the [Americans'] chemical
and biological weapons," Abu Gheith wrote on the Center
for Islamic Research and Studies' website,
which reportedly is linked to al-Qaida". The article was translated
into English by the Middle
East Media Research Institute ,
an independent, non-profit organization that analyzes Mideast media.
This is chilling
beyond belief. I hope Mr. Bush is happy courting the Arab nations while they are
planning to kill as many Americans as possible. Perhaps now he will begin to
understand exactly what Israel and the Jewish people contend with on a daily
basis.
