In my inner-city neighborhood peace and quiet are rare, especially around three-day weekends in the summer. Last night, the night before Memorial day, someone down the street was setting off fireworks and I thought to myself, boy they have their holidays mixed up.
But then I remembered another post I wrote about Memorial Day. In that post I explained how in Israel their Independence Day is the day right after their Memorial Day.
Our Independence Day follows Memorial Day by some weeks, and these two days, in both countries, have more in common than we realize.
On Memorial Day we honor and mourn our dead, poppies symbolize the dead, the red petals signifies the blood shed and perhaps for some, a promise of eventual resurrection. On Independence Day in America and Israel we “turn our tears into dancing” and celebrate the birth of our nations.
“In a speech before a joint session of Congress this week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu affirmed what so many of us know to be true: Israel is the only true friend America has in the Middle East, and we should not take this friendship for granted.
Yet this is exactly what it appears President Obama may be doing.”
Joan Swirsky has blessed us once again with a with another must read masterpiece exposing the truth behind Obama, the most cloistered and narcissistic president in recent history. She lays it on the line so that the most closed-minded liberal Israel hater is left grasping the air.
I grew up in a far left liberal Jewish family where Israel was hated as a war-mongering nation and oppressor of the Arabs and Palestinians whose plight was championed constantly.
I left to live in Israel for several years to see for myself, to work with the people of Israel and engage in their national past-time, political debate.
Well, perhaps ten times would be premeditate then? The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court on Tuesday, May 24, in a rare use of its powers ruled that a women who ran over her husband five times with a minivan should not be convicted of first-degree murder according to the Boston Globe.
According to the court, apparently the woman’s mental issues were responsible for the way she killed Richard Rutkowski. Even though the wife called her husband “retarded” and predicted killing him by saying something like: “You will be dead very soon”, the court did not believe this was evidence of premeditation.

It’s appalling how the Muslim Brotherhood uses stealth to promote their agenda. If you are for “religious tolerance” you should be clear on what you are getting for your ignorance of what’s going on.
Radical feminists are always trying to expand the definition of rape as well as the notion that the man should always be presumed guilty. If found not guilty, he still is guilty, well because he is a man.
Victimology goes something like this: “Without victims, there is no wrong to right, no cause to fight for, no oppressors, nothing to defeat, there is no biblical battle between good and evil, nothing to feel good about yourself for anymore. Therefore, you must forever continue to create victims, even if none exist.”
I guess it’s only a logical progression, after burnt bras we have to have something new and edgy for all those feminists to embrace, after all since having kids is “punishment” according to our dear leader, they have a lot of time on their hands.
Green hair and boots, sort of grunge and goth meets I wanna be a whore for the day and have a “whore pride march”.
Obama’s hatred of Jews and Israel, formerly suspected, but not so obvious, is now formally out in the open with his speech last week, as if we didn’t know it, outlining his goal of the destruction of Israel.
Right on cue, someone, perhaps George Soros, showed Obama the Queen of Diamonds and he “assassinated” Israel. All hail the new Arafat.
Irrational though it may seem, a large segment of Obama’s base are the self-destructive, self-hating, Israel hating liberal American Jews. These Jews are usually atheistic, their religion is Liberalism, their devotion to the Progressive’s dogma is above all, above their country and even their own survival.
Obama stepped in it the other day when he blindsided Israel and politically ambushed Israeli prime minister Netanyahu with his speech at the State Department outlining his bizarre proposal for re-drawing Israeli borders back to their 1967 positions.
Obama hates Israel and disrespects Netanyahu and Jews. When it comes to folks he likes, such as the president of Mexico, Venezuela and the Muslim Brotherhood he bends over backwards. When it comes to Israel Obama is the new Arafat.
U.S. Army trainer in Afghanistan: “If we instituted drug testing to the Afghan Army, we would loos three quarters to eighty to eighty-five percent of the [Afghan] army.”
In my opinion the Obama and the U.S. Army are wasting lives and vast quantities of time and money in Afghanistan, we need to leave. Training the Afghan Army is a joke.
I don’t have to write much more, just watch the videos:
Israel celebrated her Independence Day a few days ago and the mainstream media seems to relish the opportunity not to recount and praise the struggle for freedom and our half-century plus strong alliance, but rather to disparage, malign and condemn her with outright lies to subtle half-truths and skewed reporting.
Israel declared her independence in May 1948 and was recognized as a country, free from Great Britain, by the United Nations and Harry S. Truman, the president of the Untied Sates at the time.
What’s very interesting and not widely known is that Israel celebrates her Independence Day, strange as it may seem, the day after her Memorial Day. It’s like two contrasting or conflicting holidays, one following the next, with emotions switching between two ends of the spectrum.
"They deliberately pitted women and men against each other portraying women as “victims” and men as “oppressors.”
It’s been about four decades since the Women’s Liberation Movement began, yet recent statistics from the National Bureau of Economic Research claim women are more unhappy today than before the movement began.
Is the Feminist Movement to blame?
A new book by Suzanne Venker and Phyllis Schlafly “The Flipside of Feminism” explores this issue.
“What if everything you’ve been told about women in America is wrong? What if what your college professors taught you – along with television, movies, books, magazine articles, and even news reports – have all been lies or distortions?”
“…after all, they [men] are just brutal oppressing knuckle draggers so we need a whole new movement for that…”
Multiculturalism is destroying American society, it is the exact opposite of what we need. What we need is unity, not diversity. As with many liberal Utopian ideas and programs, they are the opposite of what is needed or what is right.
Worst thing is, even once liberals realize they are wrong, they don’t admit it, they just dig their heels in even more.
Terrific.
“E pluribus unum” – Out of many one, is the de facto motto of the United States and on the seal of the United States of America and most U.S. currency. And for good reason.
All of a sudden there are flat-screen T.V.s every where you go. I find this annoying, not only because the volume is way too high, but it seems the favorite station chosen for the great masses, for some mysterious reason is CNN. (I like to call it the “Communist News Network” due to it’s obvious liberal slant, its omnipresence in corporate America, even though you never chose it, it’s just there, almost as if they are watching you.)
There is a debate raging about how much credit Obama deserves, or should take concerning the Navy SEALs killing of Osama bin-Laden. Obama certainly got a nifty boost in the polls this week and it seems he is playing it for all it’s worth and for as long as he can anyway.
He is headed off to Texas of all places today in an attempt to parlay his recent political capital gains into an attempt to have it both ways on immigration, and oh, yes, to pick up some cool cash at a fund-raiser while he is at it, of course.
I’ve adopted several animals and rescued house rabbits and even volunteered at a wildlife shelter, so I know a good cause when I see one. Promoting shelter pet adoption via the Ad Council’s “Shelter Pet Adoption Campaign” is a worthy cause. It’s a shame the feminists at the Ad Council let their bias against men get in the way of their message.
This is not the first time, if there is on thread that runs through this organization’s ads it’s an effort, sometimes subtle, often overt, to disparage men and boys and cast women as superior, physically, mentally and even emotionally.
They have a whole cable channel devoted to it, now the Ad Council is into the act. We’ve all seen them on T.V. or heard them on the radio, if it’s not klutzy pre-teen boys running around and falling into wells, it’s older men, with deer in the headlight looks, who can’t keep up jogging or with healthcare facts.
From “Lifeline” to political ads during the past election, many seem to have a thread… stupid males, mean bosses, dumb jock types or even abusive men and boys, even young boys depicted as “abusers in waiting“, take your pick. Now even dogs are getting into the act.
“Lassie” (another word for ‘female’) the name of a T.V. show from the ’50′s about a collie rescuing folks, has been dredged up to chide boys to be “more self-reliant”. (Turns out by the way, the dog playing the part of “Lassie” in the show was actually a male, so I can’t call her by the technical word for a female dog.)
The movie Falling Down (1993) staring Michael Douglas as Bill Foster, a divorced, laid-off defense worker struggling just to get to his young daughter's birthday party and bring her a birthday gift, in the so "Politically Correct" Los Angeles, California. Falling Down is the quintessential expose' and satire of Political Correctness and Feminism run amok in our nation.
I attempt, in some way, to personify Foster as "Mike Truman" and speak for many of the victims of the absurd political correctness we endure constantly.
