Wednesday briefs

An unnamed source said it in a stolen email, so it must be true: My bullshit detector is pinging at Over-the-top on this story that Russia and Israel exchanged missile and drone codes. Really, Stratfor was a bit of a joke before Wikileaks got their stolen emails. Now they’re even more of one since I can read these breathless “facts” coming from people who met someone who said something about Israel. Puh-leeze.

Gasp! No! Incivility from Republicans to Democrats! Stop the presses! Tablet Magazine contains at least one writer who doesn’t know that Sarah Palin and Michelle Malkin receive far, far, FAR worse insults–and from far more prominent liberals–than Debbie Wasserman-Schultz–but I do agree that Joe Kaufman is an ass for the porn flick reference.

The record’s stuck. The record’s stuck. The record’s stuck. (This is a reference that you children out there will not understand, and will never understand. Sigh.) Israel complains–yet again–that the UN is ignoring rocket fire from Gaza into Israel. Yeah, yeah. SSDD. We know. SSDY. We know that, too.

Things are not looking good for Iran: Lee Smith on what Hamas’ move to Egypt means for the Shia conquest of the Middle East. (Hint: It isn’t good.)

Things are REALLY not looking good for Iran: An Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood leader says the Arab Spring is headed for Tehran. One can only hope. But if you think Assad is being brutal, just wait until the Khameini regime starts feeling threatened.

Remember this the next time a Ramadan exception is ruled: A Jewish school is forfeiting a championship game rather than play on Shabbat.

Julian Assholeange: Gee, maybe I can get on his enemies list. It looks like it’s going to be a big one.

But they want peace with Israel: Really, they do. Palestinian doctors protesting a tour of a Ramallah hospital by Israeli doctors as “normalizing” relations with Israel? Ignore the incitement. Really, they want two states, living side by side in peace. Watch what they say, not what they do. It’s what almost everyone else does.
