In Case You Missed It…

Kerry Would Follow Powell: Once again the John Kerry presidential campaign has provided a disquieting glimpse into the kind of thinking that to Democrats equals strong support for Israel. Appearing over the weekend on CNN's "Capital Gang," senior Kerry campaign adviser Tad Devine stated that "the difference" between Kerry and President Bush regarding the Israeli-Palestinian imbroglio "is understood very clearly. When Bush became president of the United States, he turned his back on the Middle East peace process....Until we have a president who is capable of exercising presiden tial leadership...the United States will not be a player in the peace process."

To Honor A Fallen Son Of Israel

Sara Newman announced that she didn't want one soldier to injure even a fingernail in recovering her son's ear, but nevertheless the army sent soldiers to search.

Understanding Child Murderers: The Unique Barbarism Of Palestinian Terrorism

What sort of "freedom fighters" applaud the close-range murder of a pregnant Israeli woman and her four young daughters? There is only one correct answer: Palestinian terrorists. There is, in fact, no other insurgent movement on this persistently bleeding planet that can begin to compare with Arab/Islamic terror. From the standpoint of sheer barbarism, of a primal evil that mocks any human pretension to being a civilized "resistance," no other movement even comes close.

Jews On The Precipice

The propaganda war against Israel and against Jews is staggering, both visually and linguistically.

Putting aside that "settlements" are neither illegal nor comparable to terror, the notion that Sharon is involved in a "massive building of settlements" is absurd.

The people from Christians for Israel, meanwhile, could not understand how Jews could applaud the brutal murder of eleven innocent people.

Arab Anti-Semitism – Genocide, Terrorism And International Law (Second Of Two Parts)

While most of the world outside of Washington and Jerusalem chooses to ignore calls identifying Palestinian terrorism as attempted genocide, international law has an unswerving and renewed obligation to do so.

A Blast Of Frigid Canadian Air

Every so often the Monitor features media criticism by the sharp-eyed folks HonestReporting.com. This is one of those weeks. The following article from the HonestReporting website highlights a particularly egregious example of anti-Israel bias on the part of the Canadian Broadcasting Authority.

The Likud Vote: Politically Foolish But Perfectly Understandable

The Washington Post spoke for the foreign-policy establishment when it editorialized that "Bush compromised the ability of the United States to serve as mediator of a final settlement.... The result is a blow to U.S. standing in the Middle East."

We're actually supposed to believe that the media's "scoops" consist of something other than Democratic National Committee (DNC) talking points.

Tears And Survival

I force myself to think about the six million Jews, and the million-and-a-half Jewish children, and the gas chambers, and the mass graves.

History, Eugenics, And The Jews

The central argument of the eugenics movement is that there is a negative correlation between IQ and fertility.

As the victims were being buried - in the same cemetery where young victims of a school bus ambush had been laid to rest three years earlier - thousands converged upon the northern Galilee town to mourn, grieve, and express their outrage.

The Scrolls And The Miracle of Israel

Is it not incredible that as Eleazar was reading the divine road map for Israel outlining its destiny, 6,000 miles away the nations of the world were debating that same future?

Arab Anti-Semitism – Genocide, Terrorism And International Law (First of Two Parts)

A comparable legal case could just as easily have been made on behalf of Israel. Still reeling from an organized chorus of barbarous calls for individual and collective Jewish annihilation, Israel itself must now continuously remind the world of its own incontestable and established rights to self-defense.

Banging The Anti-Bush Drum

The media's anti-Bush, anti-Iraq war drumbeat shows no sign of letting up, certainly not with a presidential election just six months away. Here are some recent gems from our overpaid, overrated and allegedly objective newshounds as rounded up by the invaluable Media Research Center (www.mrc.org):

Freud, Windbags, And The 9/11 Commission

There are, of course, trained professionals who do the field work. They are the people who bug the terrorists?

"Mr. President, I am calling you on your cell phone because my heart goes out to you. I would call you on your regular line but I understand that your phone is tapped. I know that sitting there in Ramallah for so many months without the ability to move more than a few feet at a time must be extremely frustrating and nerve wracking.

A Special Friend From Idaho

"Sir - Please know that many, many patriots here in America favor and support Israel. I am an American military officer who, if not for my obligation to my country, would come and fight for Israel. You are all in our prayers."

Disengagement From Reality

As we see from the reactions of many of the Israeli government ministers, Arik Sharon negotiated with himself and decided that his plan for disengagement was a reasonable plan.

Targeted Killing Of Terrorist Leaders: Israel’s Rights Of Assassination According To International Law

Now that Israel has eliminated Hamas terrorist masterminds Sheik Ahmed Yassin and pediatrician child killer Abdel Aziz al-Rantisi, Prime Minister Sharon may soon strike at certain other lead murderers who relentlessly plot suicide-bombings against Israelis.

Mutilating American Civilians In Fallujah As Revenge: The Criminality Of Terrorist ‘Retaliations’

Holocaust Deniers Turned Away

Jews Force the Sacramento Turnverein to Cancel! That was the distress signal posted this week on the website of the International Revisionist Conference (IRC), a gathering that had been scheduled for the weekend of April 23-25 in Sacramento; was to be dedicated to the notorious Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel (described on the IRC website as a "prisoner of conscience" jailed by Canadian authorities "at the behest of the powerful and vindictive Holocaust Lobby" merely for "expressing his views on the second World War"); and promised to feature presentations by many of the world's foremost Holocaust deniers - Horst Mahler, Mark Weber, Bradley Smith - along with, shockingly, the Israel-based author and conspiracy theorist Barry Chamish. (More on Chamish later.)
