Yeah, but this time, you’ll be boycotted: India.Arie, a singer whom I’ve never heard of ’til today (sorry, I’m just not hip anymore), is releasing her new album with songs in Hebrew and English, in collaboration with Israeli singer Idan Raichel. Get ready for the boycott calls, sweetie. I have the feeling, though, that this woman is going to be able to handle them. Click over and see how you like her. She’s got a beautiful voice.
Sirhan Sirhan: Slammer Stay Set. Like the comedian said the last time Sirhan Sirhan said that if Bobby Kennedy were alive, he’d vote for parole: “Sucks that he killed the only guy that would set him free!” This time, he claims he’s full of remorse, thinks about it every day. Just look how remorseful he is. This is a dialogue between him and the panel:
He noted the impact on the Kennedy family, which had endured another tragedy five years before with the killing of President John F. Kennedy.
At that point, Sirhan interjected, “That’s not my responsibility.”
Yeah, now that’s remorse. Say it with me, folks: Asshole.
The Incredible Shrinking President: Peter Wehner talks about Fouad Ajami’s description of the constantly-reducing public role of Barack Obama on the international stage. And I simply had to use that subhead.
How stupid is the Obama administration? This stupid. Hillary Clinton says the U.S. should continue to fund the Lebanese army even though Hizbullah is getting more and more control over the country.
The Lebanese army “cooperates with the United Nations mission in the south, to try to keep the peace there,” she said.
Really? Would that be the same Lebanese Army that ambushed Israeli soldiers clearing brush on the Israeli side of the Blue Line, killing Lt. Col. Dov Hariri, who wasn’t even near the brush-clearing crew?
Oh, yeah. We should totally give them $100 million a year.
Obama to American Jews: Pressure Israel to make peace. Meryl to Obama: [censored]. Yep, he’s doing it again, trying to set Jew against Jew. Have we ever heard Obama tell the Palestinians to pressure Hamas to make peace? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Obama said Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is eager to secure his legacy by establishing a Palestinian state and would accept a decent offer if one were on the table, according to participants.
“The Palestinians don’t feel confident that the Netanyahu government is serious about territorial concessions,” the president reportedly said.
Obama reportedly said that the Jewish sections of Jerusalem would remain in Israeli hands as part of any peace deal, but that the Arab sections would not.
Who gives a shit that Abbas wants to secure his legacy? You make peace because it’s the right thing to do, not because the world will give you a prize for it. And Obama is utterly snowed by the lies of the Palestinians. They don’t want peace. They want Israel to become Palestine.
I wonder how many people actually remember the movie and the story that it is based on.
Is his moral stature greater than that of his followers or does he have followers because they can look down on him?
In 2009 it was “self reflection.”
The words change, but not the sentiment.
I am an American Christian of Scots/Irish decent married to a Jew of Russian decent. My wife and I feel pretty much the same politically, but it amazes me how many Jews supported Obama. Just seems like hens doing everything they can to let the fox into the hen house.
