GORE’S BORE-A-THON

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/sep/16/gores-bore-a-thon/

According to Al Gore’s website, “millions” tuned in to watch the 24-hour global warming filibuster that concluded Thursday. Few were moved to anything but laughter.

Mr. Gore’s publicity stunt was intended to explore the “reality of global climate change” with a webcast from 24 separate time zones across the planet. What handfuls of viewers actually saw was the same hectoring Powerpoint lecture repeated through the course of an entire day. The message drummed in over and over was that mankind’s collective exhalations have been causing cataclysms. “This slide show, which in varying forms – the variations being representative of the varying regions that have hosted presentations over the past 23 hours – is designed to present that reality,” said Mr. Gore during his final sermon Thursday. Riveting.

FORMER NAVY SECRETARY JOHN LEHMAN ROCKS THE NAVY WITH COMPLAINTS ABOUT POLITICAL CORRECTNESS: ROWAN SCARBOROUGH

Lehman rocks Navy with complaints about political correctness Ex-secretary says aviation needs swagger

The Navy’s former top civilian has rocked the service in a military journal article by accusing officials of sinking the storied naval air branch into a sea of political correctness.

Former Navy Secretary John Lehman, himself a former carrier-based aviator, wrote that the swagger and daring of yesterday’s culture has given way to a focus on integrating women and, this year, gays.

Pilots constantly worry about anonymous complaints about salty language, while squadron commanders are awash in bureaucratic requirements for reports and statistics, he added.

“Those attributes of naval aviators — willingness to take intelligent calculated risk, self-confidence, even a certain swagger — that are invaluable in wartime are the very ones that make them particularly vulnerable in today’s zero-tolerance Navy,” said Mr. Lehman, who led the Navy in the Reagan administration.

PHYLLIS CHESLER: BLAMING ISRAEL WON’T HELP

http://www.phyllis-chesler.com/1034/blaming-israel

On September 16, 2011, the New York Times actually used the word “Islamist” in a front page story—not as often or as prominently as the word “militant” but still, there it was—and in an article titled “At White House, Weighing Limits of Terror Fight.”

For all those who are invested in the Lie that the infidels (i.e. Western civilization} are not under attack, allow me to point out that the anti-Israel and anti-American Paper of Record had, altogether, three articles on the front page about Afghanistan, Bahrain, and about “Islamist militants in Yemen and Somalia” as well as about “Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, based in Yemen, and the Somalia-based Shabab;” “Al Qaeda operating in Afghanistan…and in the tribal regions of Pakistan.”

In this same issue, the Times also has articles which focus on or mention Jordan, “Palestine,” Turkey, Afghanistan, Libya, Bahrain, Lebanon, Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan, and the Arabian Peninsula.

Even the Times knows that something is up, something has gone wrong, very wrong in terms of the Muslim world, that it is far bigger than Israel, and that it won’t get better merely by blaming Israel or America.

STEVEN SHAMRAK: THERE IS A WORLDWIDE PLETHORA OF “OCCUPIED LAND”

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/10631
Countries who live in occupied glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. But they do – only at Israel, of course.

Steven Shamrak was involved in the Moscow Zionist movement. He worked as a construction engineer at the Moscow Olympic Games project and as a computer consultant in Australia. For several years, he has been publishing an Internet editorial letter about the Arab-Israel conflict.

There are many lands around the world that have been occupied not so long ago by other countries. Many of them are still subjugated to the rule of an occupying power. They were conquered during offensive or defensive wars, throughout the process of establishment of statehood or as a part of colonial and imperial policy.
