Samir Kuntar, insomniac

The child-killing POS that Israel traded alive for the corpses of her soldiers is swearing he won’t rest until Israel is destroyed. Get used to not sleeping, asshole. Three months after being released from an Israeli jail in a prisoner … Continue reading

Call it POSHA

Terror and elections

Getting Shmuel Rosner on board at Contentions was a great move. He’s a little too much of a leftist for my taste, but he does have an eye for an interesting story, or an interesting angle. But his effort today, … Continue reading
