My favorite thing about the great unwashed and their “Occupy Wall Street” BS is all the social media and technology they are using . . . you know, social media and technology by companies that are listed (or seeking to be listed) on Wall Street and which have made their showered versions (like Mark Zuckerberg) gazillions in great disproportion to the average guy on the street.  Yet, instead of rallying against Google, Facebook, Twitter, Apple, Disney, NBC Universal, or TimeWarner (CNN), they use their products and their technology, to get their silly class warfare message out.  And I certainly hope nobody out there is wearing anything by Nike (yes, a corporation headed by a billionaire), Ralph Lauren (ditto), etc.  Go to any of the “Occupy [insert name here]” protests around the country, and you’ll see this corporate produced garb and technology at each.  You’ll see the same at “Occupy Mosque.”  Oh, wait, there isn’t one of those movements because businessman who create wealth and products are the villains, not Muslims who use the technology the businesses produce . . . to blow people up.

And, then, there’s the Jew-hatred.  Is anyone really surprised by this?  Whenever there’s any event with even half a leftist involved, there is always anti-Semitism worn as a prominent accessory.  Anytime I walk by some left-wing demonstration, you know there’s some vegan lesbian and her transsexual hipster friend nearby passing out some purple jihad type of crap about the evil “JOOOOS” and Israel.  Why would anyone think the smelly quasi-souls of Occupy Wall Street would be any different?  I’ve heard from friends in New York that Muslim and pro-Palestinian groups have set up tables to pass out their pamphlets of hate against Israel and the Jews.  And then, there are the videos, the most blatant of which is the one filmed by a reporter for Glenn Beck TV, above.  Whenever there are chants against “Wall Street,” it’s almost always a veiled (or not so veiled) attack on the Jews.

When the far-left, anti-American, anti-Israel “hikers” Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd, and Joshua Fattal were caught by Iranians over two years ago, I warned you about them, their hatred for the West, and their work on behalf of Greater Arabia. And when Bauer and Fattal were released after a lot of political pressure from friendly Muslims, they didn’t disappoint, attacking America and calling for the freeing of “political prisoners in America.” But in case there is any doubt about these three, Bauer sent an e-mail to As’ad AbuKhalil, a wacko, anti-Israel, anti-American, Marxist Muslim professor, who taught him at UC-Berzerkely.  (I once went undercover to hear this guy speak, and he’s a total nutjob.) Bauer wants to make sure that everyone knows he and his fiancee, Shourd, are not to be mistaken for those evil JOOOOS and doesn’t want anyone thinking that Fattal, because he’s Jewish by accident of birth, is in anyway associated with the “Evil Zionist Empire.” Here are a few of the choice excerpts, in which Bauer begs Professor AbuKhalil to please accept his bona fides as an America-hater and Israel-hater working on behalf of the greater barbaria that is Arabia. It’s classic.

“Stop Calling Us Jews & Americans; We Hate Both”

Dear As’ad,

I have to say that I am disappointed. Not only was you class one of my favorite’s at UCB, but I even talked up your blog to Josh in prison, and frequently pointed people to it before our arrest.

You say you “heard” that Josh Fattal is an Israeli. Where did you hear this patently false information? Josh is Jewish, not Israeli. People have also said that I, a corn-fed boy from rural Minnesota, am Jewish.
Sarah too. We are not. . . . Read the rest of this entry »

With a gazillion Muslim immigrants who refuse to Westernize and adapt to British society;  with a gazillion Muslim immigrants and their anchor baby kids who openly support Islamic terrorism and extremism (not to mention, a number of them participating in terrorist plots against the UK); and with a gazillion Muslim immigrants who have significant numbers on the United Kingdom welfare rolls, Prime Minister David Cameron, today, announced new ways to make it tougher for immigrants to bring their families to the Great Britain.  It’s too little, too late, but we should take note.  It’s quite easy for America’s Muslim immigrants to bring their families here, too.  And we are only a decade or two (if that) behind Great Britain in Muslim critical mass in the population and the ever-increasing problems that brings.

Cameron says he wants to reduce immigration to the UK to 1980 levels. Nice, but again, it’s too late. The barbarians are already inside the gate and mass-breeding. You can only stop this kind of cancer with radical measures, and these measures don’t treat the already metastasizing cancer inside Britain. As you watch and read this, note that even the UK, which is far more liberal and immigration friendly, has realized its mistake, while Barack Hussein Obama is going in the other direction, telling illegal aliens he won’t bother with them unless they commit a serious crime beyond being here illegally. Yes, even Great Arabrittania has woken up. When will we?

David Cameron has urged the British public to report illegal immigrants and vowed to change the citizenship test so that it includes questions on British history.

The text of the prime minister’s key immigration speech confirms that he wants to make forced marriage a criminal offence, and makes it clear that Downing Street backs Theresa May’s desire to rewrite the immigration rules so “misinterpretations” of the right to family life do not block immigration deportations.

Don’t hate me for liking the loathsome far-left wacko George Clooney’s new political thriller, “The Ides of March.”  But it’s the best of the new movies out this weekend and it’s really against his side of the aisle.  Sort of.

* “The Ides of March“:  Like many of you, I loathe the self-righteous, far-left king of arrogance, George Clooney, who directed and co-stars in a small part in this movie.  But I have to be honest, as it’s an entertaining and tightly woven political thriller.  It’s message isn’t new.  Not even close.  We all know politics is dirty.  So, it’s not original.  But it’s well done, if a little melodramatic and convenient.  And, if it’s any comfort, this movie is about the sleazebags on the Democratic side of the aisle.  In fact, Clooney’s character–a far-left, atheist governor who is running in the Democratic primary against an older, more conservative candidate–is a scumbag, a man with few morals who pretends to have them (like almost every other elected official).

The real star of this, though, is Ryan Gosling.  He plays a young, bright rising star in Democratic politics who is a little naive, despite his seasoning and experience.  As second in command and the media director of Clooney’s Presidential campaign, he has a relationship with a young campaign intern (Evan Rachel Wood) while at the same time, he makes an unrelated misstep and gets pinned every which way by it.  But he has an accidental ace to play that could cause a lot of people pain and change the race.  To say any more would give it away.  Aside from Gosling, Philip Seymour Hoffman is terrific as the campaign manager.  Paul Giamatti is good, too, as the rival candidate’s Machiavellian campaign manager. Marisa Tomei is a sleazy New York Times reporter. Read the rest of this entry »

Tonight, the Jewish fast day of Yom Kippur begins at sundown (and ends at nightfall on Saturday Night). It’s a day of atonement for our sins and a day full of prayer to G-d*, asking for forgiveness and a good year.

Yom Kippur is one of the holiest Jewish holidays, at the end of which we believe our fate for the next year is “sealed” by G-d. We believe that on Rosh HaShanah, that fate is written by Him, and on Yom Kippur, he issues his final Judgment. This is Judgment Day. Read the rest of this entry »

Don’t applaud dhimmi car rental company Hertz for this, as it took a federal lawsuit by non-Muslims to reach this result.  Two years ago, I told you about non-Muslims who sued Hertz in federal court because Hertz gave at least a half-hour in paid breaks  (and other special privileges) to Muslims for prayers, but didn’t give non-Muslims the same paid breaks and privileges.  After they filed their class-action suit, the non-Muslims, Katie Barkley, Shirley Harris, and a class of other non-Muslim Hertz employees, surprisingly got the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission to finally intercede, and Hertz agreed to require Muslims to clock out and take non-paid breaks for prayer.   Since many of Hertz’s Muslim bus drivers continue to pray on the job and won’t clock out, today Hertz was forced to suspend those workers.  Again, this isn’t a “Yay, Hertz!” moment, as one reader suggested it was.  It’s something Hertz had to do after years of pandering to Muslims, because if the pandering continued, there would be more lawsuits against Hertz and steeper penalties.

More:

In the three years she’s worked as a shuttle driver for Hertz at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Zainab Aweis, had always taken time out of her shift each day to pray.

An observant Muslim, she prays five times a day — with one, sometimes two of those prayer times falling during her shift.

“That was the one benefit of the job,” the 20-year-old said.

On Friday, she and 33 other drivers — all of them Somali Muslims — were suspended indefinitely from their jobs after they took religious breaks to pray while at work without first clocking out. Read the rest of this entry »

Nazi George Soros’ multi-million dollar far-left Media Matters for America organization says that I’m not a real Jew–that I’m a fake–because I’m not involved in far left-wing Jewish organizations in Michigan (the ones that butt-lick HAMAS and Hezbollah Muslims and support their unlimited immigration; the ones who won’t condemn Palestinian terrorism against Israel).  Yes, according to Media Matters’ M. J. Rosenberg, formerly of AIPAC and far-left pan-Muslim U.S. Senator Carl Levin’s staff, I’m a fake Jew.  Now that he’s recovered from AIPAC, Rosenberg is–in addition to his high-paid job at Media Matters–a contributor to Al-Jazeera.  I love how Al-Jazeera’s Dhimmi Jew is the self-appointed new chief rabbi of the world and arbiter of who is a Jew. Check out this tweet that Rosenberg recently sent out on Twitter, below.

That tweet is in addition to today’s Media Matters conniptions over my column about how Steve Jobs was NOT Muslim, contrary to the fantasist claims of many Muslims who’ve e-mailed me in the last couple of months. While I’m sure the people at my Orthodox synagogue tonight, during Yom Kippur services, will note (as they always have) that I’m a real Jew, “Rabbi” Media Matters claims otherwise. I wonder if Rosenberg will be attending Yom Kippur services or go to a ham and cheese joint for a sandwich instead, tonight. He prays every day for Israel’s destruction and the triumph of the Palestinians and Islam. And there really isn’t a prayer for HAMAS in the Machsor (the prayer book for the Jewish high holidays). So, he’d be outta luck.

As you may know, Media Matters gets millions of dollars from organizations funded by George Soros, an anti-Semitic Jew who admittedly helped Nazis round up Jews, evict them from their apartments, and ultimately deport them to their deaths in the concentration camps.  I am a one (wo)man shop without the gazillion dollars in funding that this organization–which calls me a “Fake Jew”–has.  If you want to respond to Media Matters, the best way you can is to donate to the continued operation of this site by clicking the Paypal button on the upper left-hand side of this page. (Or you can prevent the PayPal fees by going to PayPal and sending it directly to: writedebbie@gmail.com.) No amount is too small. Your support is appreciated. And it’s the best way to tell the Media Matters scumbags that they aren’t the arbiters of who is a Jew and that Jewish conservatives are not only just as Jewish as Jewish liberals, they are more so.

I don’t know the law in Canada.  But I do know the law in the U.S. regarding landlord-tenant issues as they intersect with civil rights.  And I would imagine that, as in America, a Canadian landlord cannot discriminate in deciding to whom to rent a property.  In the U.S., for example, one could not advertise “No Muslims” in an ad for an apartment.  You’d get the Justice Department on your butt, even though you don’t want Hezbollah and HAMAS supporters in your building.  Heck, I’d bet that if I put out an ad that said, “Apartment For Rent, but No Hezbollah and HAMAS Fans,” I’d get lawsuits by Muslims and Eric Holder’s people. But, apparently, in Canada, discrimination in favor of “Muslims only” is allowed.

Yet more evidence that Muslims want and receive not equal treatment but better and preferred treatment.  They get special rights and are allowed to engage in conduct that would sic the law on the rest of us.  Blame Canada?  In this case, definitely, because it’s apparently okay there to have a rental policy of . . .

“Non-Muslims Need Not Apply“–The Real Islamic “Tolerance”:

There’s a two bedroom basement apartment for rent in Toronto’s northwest end —one bathroom, newly painted and renovated with a side entrance. The ad, posted on popular classified site Kijiji.ca, comes with the typical caveats —no pets allowed, no smokers. And then, a less common request: Only Muslims need apply.

Hey, I’m sure this is just yet another misunderstood, wrongly accused victim of “Islamophobia.”  What else could it be?  I mean, Saudi Muslims would never try to enter the cockpit of a plane over U.S. airspace, right?  Not like they’ve ever done it before.  9/11 was just our imagination. Probably the guy was a Christian or Jew. No way that a dude named Abdulaziz Mubarak Alshammari from Saudi Arabia could be Muslim. Oh, and by the way, he’s just “confused.” I know when I’m on a plane, I’m “confused” and immediately head for the cockpit, too. Don’t you? That’s normal. Shocker that he’s a Saudi student visa holder . . . or, rather, claims he is. Why is he here? How did he get here? Is he yet another Muslim foreign student who violated his visa? We’ll never know because NO charges were filed and they let the guy go, despite his obvious lie to authorities about being a University of Indianapolis student.

Federal authorities are probing the actions of a Saudi Arabian man who tried to get into the cockpit of an American Airlines flight to Indianapolis last night.

Indianapolis Airport police said Abdulaziz Mubarak Alshammari, 20, was pulled away from the cabin door by another passenger a half-hour before Flight 1936 from New York to Indianapolis International Airport landed at about 10 p.m. Wednesday. Read the rest of this entry »

**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****

Although I currently own only one Apple product (an iPod–a gift from a friend), I will always have an affinity for the genius that was Steve Jobs, who died today.  My very first computer ever was an Apple Macintosh (or Macintosh Plus–I forget which).  That was just as I was going off to college in the fall of 1986, and I was the only one I knew with my own computer.  But he revolutionized that and revolutionized it even more, as you know.  In many ways, he was not only the father, but the godfather of Silicon Valley.  Even if you never owned an Apple product, if you played Atari (as I did as a kid) you were touched by Steven Jobs (he worked for Atari before there was Apple).  Or if you enjoy the amazing Pixar animation at the movies–that was his, too. And he never graduated from college. He made several comebacks. But in another day, he might have been aborted, and it would all have been lost.

It’s sad that someone so bright, so innovative, so entrepreneurial is gone only in his mid-50s (he was only 56).  But he was one of the lucky ones.  My own father died of pancreatic cancer, and like most, he died only several months after his diagnosis (he self-diagnosed).  Jobs beat back pancreatic cancer for a few years, which is rare (and he had the rare form that was supposed to be curable with surgery).  His billions show that, rich or poor, you can’t beat G-d’s plan when it’s time.  It bothered me when TMZ and many other news sites published photos of an emaciated, skin-and-bones Jobs after he resigned from Apple.  I wished people would let this man live his last days in peace.

Although I’ve read attacks on Jobs regarding his refusal for several years to recognize his first child, a daughter, and other charges against him, we don’t know what really went on in his personal life, and it has little relevance to what he did to change the world in terms of technology.  My friends who are Mac, iPad, and iPhone users swear by them and will never go back.  They say they never get viruses that infect and incapacitate their computers, as I’ve  had happen on my PC so many times over the years and especially recently.  And his “cloud” concept along with the iPad will revolutionize technology for years to come.  It changed the game and left companies like the struggling HP in the dust.

And, finally, there are the “Steve Jobs was a Muslim” claims. Read the rest of this entry »
