According to Najem News—which says the bank’s policy “contradicts Jordan’s laws and constitutions”—the bank […]

BRUCE KESLER: JEWISH AND MUSLIM HOSPITALS ORDERED BY HHS TO SERVE PORK INSTEAD OF BEEF!!!

 http://maggiesfarm.anotherdotcom.com/archives/19811-Jewish-and-Muslim-Charities-Ordered-By-HHS-To-Serve-Pork.html The federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) mandates that all hospitals, including Jewish or Moslem, must serve pork instead of beef. Pork is lower in fat and calories, thus better for health, and less expensive than beef, thus better for healthcare spending. HHS opines that only synagogues and mosques may continue to […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE LAST DAYS OF THE MEDIA

The Last Days of the Media http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ The magazine business isn’t what it used to be. In the last ten years, Newsweek lost 2.5 million readers, and its newsstand sales are hardly worth mentioning. A full-page ad in it costs less than the price of a luxury car. Sold for a buck to the husband […]

WAFA SULTAN TAKES ON SHEIKH BAKRI COMMENTS AND VIDEO: ANDREW BOSTOM

http://www.andrewbostom.org/blog/2012/05/17/sheikh-bakri-helps-wafa-sultan-educate-all-americans-on-islam/ http://www.translatingjihad.com/2012/05/dr-wafa-sultan-vs-sheikh-omar-bakri-is.html Dr. Wafa Sultan, a remarkably courageous and thoughtful Muslim freethinker, recently debated Sheikh Omar Bakri Muhammad. Dr. Sultan watched passively while the good Sheik expressed without equivocation his pious views—in full accord with classical, mainstream Islamic doctrine on jihad—and then politely added her own plain spoken commentary in response. This less than 8-minute […]

JULIA GORIN: THE MEDIA ORGY AND BIAS IN FULL DISPLAY OVER RATKO MLADIC

http://www.juliagorin.com/wordpress/?p=2845
World’s “Journalists” Prematurely Climax over Mladic

I’ll leave room for the possibility that Ratko Mladic did go ahead and draw a finger across his throat toward the professional victim who claimed he did so last Wednesday May 16th, figuring he might as well since the media mistakenly had him doing it last year anyway. (In a case of the AP misreporting itself about a Bosnian woman who’d made the gesture toward Mladic.)

Leaving room for the possibility that the disproved incident did finally occur a year later — in precisely the same way — one must point out the following: Once again we have no video and, in the wall-to-wall news coverage about this, no one but Munira Subasic — the one he supposedly aimed the gesture at — was cited as witnessing it.

So are we to believe a professional victim, head of Mothers of Srebrenica, Munira Subasic, who is well acquainted with the fellow professional victim to whom it supposedly happened last year (Kada Hotic, who boasted that she taunted the defendant by drawing a finger across her throat)? Naturally, when news reports came out last year — without any footage — that Mladic was the one who had done the gesture “taunting the gallery,” Hotic didn’t do anything so honest as correct them. Something that would have been easier for her to do than it was for me, who nonetheless got a printed retraction by the AP.)

Knowing how well such Serbian War Criminal(TM) behavior plays in the media, isn’t it possible that last week Subasic was merely acting her part in the ongoing Western-directed play about her country? Picked up on the media lie that Hotic’s gesture was turned into last year; grafted it onto herself; and recycled it. Balkan Muslims being expert at internalizing the uber-victim roles bestowed upon them by the West.

Again, you’d think that if Mladic really did something like this, there’d be a sumptuous video of it, and that video would be plastered all over the evening news. And Jon Stewart would replay it and build a routine around it the way he did Medvedev saying to Obama, “I will transmit this information to Vladimir.”

“Yet,” writes reader Nick T, “when I looked for a picture or video, there is none anywhere. Youtube has one piece by [ITV] news. And the lead by the female journalist is that Mladic made the “hand across the throat” gesture. So i thought, ok, they will now show it. Nothing. The rest of the piece shows the judge, Mladic sitting quietly and then the prosecutor rambling on. Did these journalists graduate from the Goebbels School of Journalism???”
