Robin Gibb, Friend of Israel, RIP: 2/3rds of Bee Gees Gone

By Debbie Schlussel

As you’ve no doubt heard, Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees died yesterday of colon cancer. It’s a disease that took my paternal grandfather in his fifties and Gibb at the young age of 62. Only Barry Gibb remains from the Brothers Gibb. Twin brother, Maurice, died in 2003 at age 53. And their younger brother, Andy Gibb, died at age 30, in 1988. Seems the Bee Gees are sadly afflicted with early deaths. As you probably know, the Bee Gees songs on the soundtrack of “Saturday Night Fever” made them huge. But you probably didn’t know that the Bee Gees were very pro-Israel and even had their own song, entitled “Israel,” which they put out in 1971. Oddly, they never performed there, until Robin Gibb performed solo in Israel in 2007, his first time there, defying calls to boycott the Jewish nation. Below is video of that performance, singing “How Deep Is Your Love” with Israeli back-up singers and praising Israel in an interview with illusionist Uri Geller (while there is brief Hebrew in the beginning, the interview is in English at the end of the song). I loved the Bee Gees music (which remains a big part of my work out routine–the fast songs have a great beat), plus, back in the day, Barry Gibb was hot. My favorites are “Stayin’ Alive,” “Tragedy,” and “You Should Be Dancing,” all of which are below.


The Bee Gees – Robin Gibb at Right

What are your fave BeeGees tunes?

Shalom, Robin Gibb. Rest In Peace.

Here are the lyrics to the Bee Gees’ “Israel”:

You’ve had your troubles Israel
I’ve seen them all
But you put the writing on the wall

Terrorist’s Family Threatens to Sue Over Dubai Mossad Movie (b/c It Depicts Him as a Flirt)

By Debbie Schlussel

Remember Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh, the HAMAS terrorist and arms dealer who was killed in a Dubai hotel, probably by the Mossad? He was the go-between for HAMAS to obtain weapons and explosives from Iran for use against Israel. And now an Israeli director is making a movie about him. Sadly (and ironically), the movie stars Israeli draft-dodger Bar Refaeli. But what’s hilarious is that the terrorist’s family is threatening a lawsuit over the movie, apparently because it portrays the guy as something of a flirt . . . not because it shows that he’s a terrorist and murderer of Jews because, hey, that’s a great thing in their culture.

Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh a/k/a Abu Abed, Rot In Jehenim [Hell]

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — The family of a slain Hamas operative is seeking to block the release of a movie being made in Israel about his 2010 assassination in a Dubai hotel. Read the rest of this entry »

Moronette: Chick Gave Up Facebook Millions to Be on “The Bachelorette”

By Debbie Schlussel

While the Facebook IPO stock offered Friday was a bad deal (the stock is now trading at $5 below the initial offer price), early investors and employees with at least four years there became multi-millionaires on Friday. They had the last laugh. And the joke was on everyone else. But the biggest idiot was Ali Fedotowsky, who left Facebook after three years (she needed four for her right to Facebook stock to fully vest) and gave up all rights to any Facebook stock. The reason the 27-year-old walked away from her job (after Facebook was already big and destined for riches) and the millions she knew she would make is demonstrative of how sick America has become: that people are willing to throw away millions in order to seek brief reality TV fame. But, hey, she made the cover of “People,” one week. Glad she’s got her priorities straight.

In today’s America, far too many people would rather aspire to be Kardashians or get pregnant and have a kid to star on “Teen Mom” than take the steps–easy steps that were already in her grasp, in Fedotowsky’s case–to become a multi-millionaire capitalist. That’s part of why we’ve lost our way. Our sense of greatness and achievement is warped because Hollywood has attacked the real achievers (businessmen and capitalists) and promoted the real losers (reality show morons) for so long that we’ve come to believe the baloney.


As of the IPO on Friday, the average paper value of equity for a Facebook employee was $4.9 million, excluding [Mark] Zuckerberg’s share. . . . [Fedotowsky] left her job in Facebook’s ad-sales department in 2010 to star in her own reality TV show, “The Bachelorette.” Ms. Fedotowsky left behind her unvested, restricted Facebook stock units, says her spokeswoman, who says Ms. Fedotowsky isn’t available to comment.

Trayvon Martin VIDEO Shows Him Encouraging Others to Fight Before Zimmerman Encounter

By Debbie Schlussel

More and more evidence is coming out to show us what we already knew: that Trayvon Martin is a violent thug and that George Zimmerman shot him in self-defense. New video purports to show that Trayvon Martin encouraged fighting, too. On the other hand, former co-workers and “friends” of Zimmerman are claiming he’s a racist and a bully. However, even if he is both of those things–and I’m not so sure, neither characteristic takes away from him his right to self-defense when he’s under violent attack.

I’m not as optimistic as Florida’s WFTV or the Palm Beach Post that prosecutors will soon let George Zimmerman walk, based on evidence that seems to acquit him. The prosecutors have a lot of time and resources involved in this, and it’s their star turn, of which they aren’t about to let go when there could be book deals, stardom, and interviews on TV talk shows. Still, look at the evidence:

Newly obtained video recorded before Martin’s death shows the teenager encouraging others to fight. However, Martin’s brother said Trayvon is not in the video. Read the rest of this entry »

Wknd Box Office: Battleship, First Position, What to Expect When You’re Expecting, Sound of My Voice, Mansome, Bully

By Debbie Schlussel

This weekend’s new movies actually include a more than one good one, which is rare.  You’ve already read my review of Sacha Baron Cohen’s “The Dictator, which debuted in theaters on Wednesday.  (I apologize that my movie reviews weren’t up Friday, as they usually are, but there were so many new movies and I had so much going on that I couldn’t finish this in time for the Jewish Sabbath.  That happens rarely.  Better late than never, right?  to those who already attended the movies I hated, sorry that I didn’t save you in time from wasting your ten bucks and two plus hours of time.  I’ll be back with these reviews earlier, next week, G-d willing.)



*  “Battleship“:  This is being trashed by all of the conventional (liberal) mainstream media movie critics, who eschew patriotism (at least of the American variety) and a good adventure thriller.  But I loved it.  It’s patriotic, suspenseful, filled with non-stop action, and has a tight script and a great story.  I wasn’t bored for a second.  This is the movie the Navy SEALs should have made and could have made, instead of the anti-Semitic “Act of Valor” (read my review).  There is a great plot twist involving the veterans of Pearl Harbor, Korea, and Vietnam . . . and even the U.S.S. Missouri, which is now a museum to the Pearl Harbor attack.  Col. Gregory Gadsen, a real-life American soldier who lost his legs to an IED in Iraq, has a pretty big role in the movie, too, and he’s a pretty good actor.  (In real life, he was awarded three Bronze Stars and is currently Director of the U.S. Army Wounded Warrior Program.)

DISGUSTING! Obama Administration Debates Apology to Pakistan

By Debbie Schlussel

You know what’s long past “getting old”?  The Obama multi-apologies to Afghanistan, Pakistan, the Muslim world, etc. for everything America does right or every single tiny mistake in war.  Today’s Wall Street Journal has a whole cover story entitled, “U.S. Agonizes Over Apology to Pakistan.”  Huh?  This is the same Pakistan that gave away our nuclear secrets to the North Koreans and Iran.  The same Pakistan that gave Osama Bin Laden safe haven for who knows how long, knowing full well he was there.  The same Pakistan, whose ISI intelligence service has been aiding and abetting Taliban terrorists against America and other Islamic terrorists who murdered Westerners and Jews in the Mumbai Massacre.  We should be apologizing to these schmucks?  Are you kidding?

obamasmiling.jpgislamiccrescent.jpg

The article is embarrassing and would be hilarious, if the joke wasn’t on us.  This is the Keystone Koppery of foreign diplomacy.  This is how you induce the rest of the world to laugh at you. Um, when will America get a single apology for the many Americans’ lives lost because of Pakistani complicity in terrorism attacks on civilians and U.S. soldiers? As we know, these constant apologies only embolden these cretins to kill more Americans and target our soldiers. Oh, and by the way, Pakistan is run by the husband of the late Benazir Bhutto, who everyone–all the moronic, fake, know-nothing “experts” like Hanan Qahwazi Tudor (a/k/a “Brigitte Gabriel” a/k/a “Nour Saman” a/k/a “Jews Give Me Your Money While I Tell You What You Want to Hear in My Obnoxious Arabic Accent and Give You a Completely Fraudulent Life Story”)–predicted would be this great liberal, moderate friend of the U.S.?

For nearly six months after U.S.-led forces accidentally killed two dozen Pakistani troops at the Afghanistan border, officials at the highest reaches of the Obama administration have been locked in a heated debate over what might appear to be a small step—apologizing for the loss.

Check out my latest appearance on XM’s “Brett Winterble Show,” which we recorded yesterday. (It’s the podcast on the left side of the page.) We discussed my review of Sacha Baron Cohen’s “The Dictator” and some other issues, including Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin’s renunciation of his U.S. citizenship to avoid capital gains taxes (and Chuck Schumer’s and Bob Casey’s EX-PATRIOT Act legislation in response). My appearance begins at about 22 minutes in.

National Review/American Spectator Cruise Guest of Honor, Anti-Israel, Pan-Muslim Grover Norquist

By Debbie Schlussel

National Review and The American Spectator are marketing a cruise around Michigan and Chicago with an interesting guest of honor:  Al-Qaeda funds recipient Grover Norquist, founder of the Islamic Institute, hater of Israel, and Muslim job-recruiter for the Bush White House.


Praise allah: National Review’s & American Spectator’s Guest of Honor w/ His Extremist Buddy Suhail Khan – Both Are Tied to Al-Qaeda

Norquist’s Islamic Institute was funded by Al-Qaeda organizations raided by the U.S. Customs Service in Operation Greenquest.  And Norquist got the Bush Administration to hire anti-Semitic Muslim Suhail Khan as a Special Assistant to the President, despite the fact that Khan’s own father brought Al-Qaeda’s Ayman Al-Zawahiri into the United States in the ’90s to raise money at Khan’s California mosque.  Khan was also connected to the Muslim boycott of Starbucks because it is headed by a Jew, Howard Schultz, who decried anti-Semitism (the nerve of him).  And that’s aside from his illegal money-laundering scheme with Jack Abramoff.  He got away with it because his friend, Karl Rove, blocked the Bush Justice Department from ever going after him.  Everything you need to know about Grover Norquist (who converted to Islam to marry his Arab Muslim wife), is here, here, and here.

Norquist was tight with Islamic Jihad founder and convicted terrorist, Sami Al-Arian, even after it was well known that Al-Arian fundraised for and masterminded a bus-bombing in Israel in which New Jersey college student, Alisa Flatow, was murdered.  After I exposed Al-Arian (and Norquist buddy and Hezbollah/Arafat-supporter Darrell Issa), Norquist–an NRA Board Member–demanded that the NRA disinvite me as a speaker to their annual convention, which they did (in writing), but then backtracked after I promised to expose what a fraud the NRA is on “The Howard Stern Show,” and that the organization isn’t really about the Second Amendment, but, rather, taking orders from Islamic terrorists.  Norquist also demanded from his fellow Islamic lobbyist, Heritage Foundation chief, Edwin Feulner, Jr., that I be removed as a columnist from Townhall (then owned by Heritage), and Feulner–a recipient of mega-bucks for lobbying for Malaysia’s anti-Semitic leader–gladly obliged. Norquist also praised Barack Obama for his speech about Rev. Jeremiah Wright and declared that Obama had “closed the door” on Wright. Read the rest of this entry »

Is singer Donna Summer, who died today of lung cancer, the latest victim of the 9/11 Islamic terrorists? 

If her suspicions regarding how she contracted lung cancer are true, then she probably is the latest 9/11 victim.

Arab Muslims Top World’s Greediest Resource Users; World Wildlife Fund’s “Occupied Palestine”

By Debbie Schlussel

The biggest, greediest users of the world’s resources are Arab Muslims. But I’m sure this won’t turn anti-Israel environmentalist frauds against them. After all, it’s probably the Jews’ fault, right? But the World Wildlife Fund, which produced the survey of the world’s countries’ usage, believes the West Bank is a new country: “Occupied Palestinian Territory,” as it calls it in the report. Yup, if you are a donor to the World Wildlife Fund, you are a donor to an anti-Israel organization which officially recognizes Jerusalem as “Occupied Palestinian Territory.” And in a reprint of the list by LiveScience–a site that partners with MSNBC and the Christian Science Monitor, both of them anti-Israel–there is an asterisk and a note:


*Editor’s Note: The Occupied Palestinian Territory is a term used by the United Nations and international legal groups to describe portions of the West Bank governed by Israeli military authorities. [Updated 5/15]

And now for the usurpation of the world’s resources. On Twitter (follow me on Twitter), I follow a “Green UAE” group, only because I want to see what BS these Jew-hating apartheid frauds are claiming they do to pretend they are environmentalists. I don’t believe in this “Green movement” baloney, but I love how they claim to “care” about the environment soooo much, but Jews’ right to exist and Israel’s right to exist, not so much. Everything in proportion, right? Also, I’ve always laughed at these jet-setting oil-rich nations with their jet-setting lifestyles claiming to be “green” or environmentally-friendly. And guess what? My impression was correct. According to the 2012 Living Planet Report, produced by conservation agency the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), three Arab Muslim anti-Israel Gulf states top the list of the world’s greediest resource users (which was determined on a per capita usage basis):

1. Qatar
2. Kuwait
3. United Arab Emirates Read the rest of this entry »
