The Sophia of JasonCategory: potpourri
Have you noticed lately that things seem to be moving faster and becoming more intense? Violence, emotions, actions, time.....everything is perceived to be going at a crescendo...but to what?

Unanswered PostiesCategory: potpourri
For some reason I just wasn't able to view the posties that have been sent to me in the last week. So a few people have unanswered posties, and I feel badly about it.
Soo....
1) LC - Yeah I should be able to help you out on that day.
2) Nej - I have your answer - look for something in your e-mail soon.
Last, but certainly not least -
3) Libertad - Thank you for inviting me. As I've said I'm very fascinated. LC actually e-mailed also and asked if I wanted to go, I said yes, but I couldn't because I had to pick up Josh at the airport during that time. Of course, as shit happens sometimes, he didn't actually arrive until 2:30 AM! Terrible. Anyhow I appreciate the thought, and next time I definitely want to check it out!

Protestors? Part DeuxCategory: politics
Well, I have to say I'm disappointed. I made it outrageous on purpose! (e:jewishpride), you misunderstood the thrust of my blog. In no way do I think Jewish lives are cheap. I don't think Lebanese lives are cheap for that matter. I doubt too many people at Bidwell understood that Hezbollah uses civilians (the very people who they provide services for!) to hide themselves and their munitions. They talk about "collective punishment," the liberal buzzword of the day, with no sense of irony at all.
Where are these jerks when Jews are getting death rained on them on a daily basis? Where is the outrage? I thought these people wanted peace! I thought these people were outraged by violence! Clearly this is only true when we go after the enemy. They don't protest Hamas or Hezbollah. They don't protest Al Qaeda. They aren't the self-styled caring people they purport themeselves to be. These protests are fucking disingenuous, and so are the protestors.
If they don't at all care about violence perpetrated by Islamofascist terrorists, then one has to wonder why. What's the reason? And I am absolutely NOT going to hear or put up with any assertions that they do care about Israeli deaths, because every single last action they make proves the opposite.

I know this is going to sound crazzy, it kinda is. There is only two ways to get peace in the middle east. The first is to give all the terrorists weapons and let them all fight untill they are all dead or untill one country takes it all over. That is basicly what happened thousands of years ago, there where a bunch of tribes and eventully one of them one out and controlled all of china (from what i understand). The second is to Bomb every middleastern country weather they are a friend or an enemy and just kill everbody there. Then you start over fresh. Now that might sound insane but it would cause peace. Now what about the innocants well there are things that could be done. What that is I'm sure. The problem over there is all these militants who can't forget the past. These people are sheep who completely destroy the meaning of their Holy books.

Actually (e:Ajay), when I learned of the Indian bombings I thought of you first. What would (e:Ajay) make of all this? I never did get around to asking you. I really don't appreciate the incinuation that I'm racist, then again I'm used to it. I'm rather certain the Jews are of a different race than myself, same for the Lebanese who are dying, and I've expressed grief for both.
I do not put a qualifier in place when talking about who is worthy of peace, unless they are heinous terrorist jerks. All peoples who are victimized by terrorism (these also include the folks who perish as a result of reaction) should be mourned.
It is this thought that made me so upset at the protest. Those people sure as hell made a decision as to who is worthy to live in peace. And where the hell were they when India got bombed by those Islamofascist fucks? The focus of their compassion is embarrassingly narrow, yet they are the first to pat themselves on the back. I'm sure they felt great about what they did. Who feels good about a job half done?

(e:ajay), for once I have to say that I don't think (e:jason) thought any less of the indians being bombed than he did of the israelis. It is just that there was no corresponding protest at Bidwell to get him started. On another note, I am not sure that everyone considers Israelis to be white people. In fact I am sure there are a whole lot of people that don't.

Actually, if you take a breath for a second Ajay, you'd understand that Jason is the type of guy that would be upset about the Indian lives as well. Personally I think its an absolute tragedy but I'm not surprised that it happened either.
Secondly, the strategic importance of destroying the infrastructure in southern Lebanon is extremely obvious. Hezbollah OWNS that part of the country, as well as entire sections of south Beirut. In certain parts of Beirut you do not travel through without permission from Hezbollah. I'm not particularly surprised that they are storing weapons there and operating HQ activities in civilian areas - they are chickenshits that are willing to prop up the innocent in front of bullets.

... and where was (e:Jason) when 200+ Indians were killed by the same "Islamofascists" couple of weeks ago? Where was (e:Jason)'s rant against them? Oh right: only White lives matter. What difference does it make when a few 100 brown people get blown to pieces?
And by the way (e:Jason) : I'm sure the Hezbollah were hiding under the gas tanks at Beirut International Airport. And under the bridges. And inside the water purification plants. And the power plants. And ...

Lay Down and Die, Jews!Category: satire
ELMWOOD AVE - A throng of war protestors, Jew haters, self-hating Jews, terrorist sympathizers, white nationalists and self-styled journalists assembled at Bidwell Park Sunday afternoon in the hope of persuading Israel to stop its massacre of Lebanon. Drivers were gifted with exquisite performance art and signage denouncing Israel's atrocious response to constant rocket attacks and suicide bombings.
Bobby McJewHater of South Buffalo, 35, described Israel as a "terrorist state and occupier of Arab lands," and offered the following remedy: "Why don't the Jews, with their hook noses, just lay down and die? It's pretty fucking obvious the world despises them, with the exception of that other terrorist state, the U.S., so they should just submit to Islamic rule or be destroyed."
Bobby's wife Jewy, 32, pondered the situation. "I'm Jewish, and I can't stand what they're doing. I mean, the rocket attacks only kill a few Jews at a time, and what are a few Jewish lives? Nothing, a drop in the bucket, only a good start. A Jewish state is far from necessary anyway. I think their response is appalling."
Bitchy O'WarProtestor agreed with Jewy's assessment. "The collective punishment of the Lebanese people is a war crime. I'm pretty sure the Bush Crime Family is involved somehow. Don't you watch CNN? They had a beautiful piece last week outlining all the great things Hezbollah does for the Lebanese. They educate, they give social services, they do everything for the Lebanese, just like Fidel in Cuba, and they are a legitimate portion of the government. Who cares if a few Jews pay the price for their arrogance? It doesn't mean they have to get their panties all in a bunch and man their tanks. Leave Hezbollah alone! They are only resisting! The world should condemn those fucking Heebs for what they're doing! Err, shit, sorry Jewy, no offense."
Adolf Neonazimann, 23, rejoiced. "I am SO happy that we finally have something we can agree upon with the left wingers. Hezbollah should stack those fuckers up like poker chips! Kill them by the fucking bushel! This is pretty much one of the best days of my life."
A passerby who would only identify himself as "Danq," when asked about his reaction to the mob next to him, lamented the short sightedness of his fellow citizens. "Where the fuck are you when Israelis get murdered on a daily basis? At the computer beating off to it? You people make me want to vomit. Maybe if hundreds of Katushyas were dropped on your fucking heads in the last few weeks you would gain a little perspective. Until then, I just called Buffalo's Bravest, who should be over here shortly to dispose of you assholes with some high powered water cannons. Piss off."

"the rocket attacks only kill a few Jews at a time, and what are a few Jewish lives?"
What are a few Jewish lives if that life is yours and your families? It sickens me that illogical people like yourself, safe in Buffalo 4,000 miles away form the nightmare understand the situation.
Say every moment of your life you live in fear. Your kids go to school in the morning and you’re afraid their bus will be blown up. This is not a way to live. Say, Buffalonians enjoying themselves on the Elmwood Strip are blown to pieces from Canadian shelling day after day! What would your approach to the situation be? How would you like it if the rest of the Country (and your people) say who cares about Buffalo? Who lives there anyway?
Israel is the only Country in the history of the world to give back land in a defensive war! Israel has a full right to protect itself and the lives of its hardworking citizens.
Dennis Miller on Israel
"For those who don't know, Dennis Miller is a comedian who has
a show called Dennis Miller Live on HBO. He recently went on a rant
about the situation: "A brief overview of the situation is always valuable, so as a service to all Americans who still don't get it, I now offer you the story of the Middle East in just a few paragraphs, which is all you really need. Don’t thank me. I’m a giver. Here we go:
The Palestinians want their own country. There's just one thing
About that: There are no Palestinians. It's a made up word. Israel
Was called Palestine for two thousand years. Like "Wiccan," "Palestinian" sounds ancient but is really a modern invention. Before the Israelis won the land in war, Gaza was owned by Egypt, and there were no "Palestinians" then, and the West Bank was owned by Jordan, and there were no "Palestinians" then. As soon as the Jews took over and started growing oranges as big as basketballs, what do you know, say hello to the Palestinians," weeping for their deep bond with their lost
"land" and "nation.†So for the sake of honesty, let's not use the word
"Palestinian" any more to describe these delightful folks, who dance for joy at our deaths until someone points out they're being taped. Instead, let's call them what they are: "Other Arabs Who Can't Accomplish Anything In Life And Would Rather Wrap Themselves In The Seductive Melodrama Of Eternal Struggle And Death."
I know that's a bit unwieldy to expect to see on CNN. How about
this, then: Adjacent Jew-Haters." Okay, so the Adjacent Jew-Haters
want their own country. Oops, just one more thing. No, they don't. They
could've had their own country any time in the last thirty years,
especially two years ago at Camp David. But if you have your own country, you have to have traffic lights and garbage trucks and Chambers of Commerce, and, worse, you actually have to figure out some way to make a living. That's no fun. No, they want what all the other Jew-Haters in the region want: Israel.
They also want a big pile of dead Jews, of course -- that's
where the real fun is -- but mostly they want Israel. Why? For one thing, trying to destroy Israel - or "The Zionist Entity" as their textbooks call it -- for the last fifty years has allowed the rulers of Arab countries to divert the attention of their own people away from the fact that they're the blue-ribbon most illiterate, poorest, and tribally backward on God's Earth, and if you've ever been around God's Earth, you know that's really saying something.
It makes me roll my eyes every time one of our pundits waxes
Poetic about the great history and culture of the Muslim Mideast.
Unless I'm missing something, the Arabs haven't given anything to the
world since Algebra, and, by the way, thanks a hell of a lot for that one. Chew this around and spit it out: Five hundred million Arabs;
five million Jews.
Think of all the Arab countries as a football field, and Israel
as a pack of matches sitting in the middle of it. And now these same
folks swear that if Israel gives them half of that pack of matches,
everyone will be pals. Really? Wow, what neat news. Hey, but what about the string of wars to obliterate the tiny country and the constant din of rabid blood oaths to drive every Jew into the sea? Oh, that? We were just kidding.
My friend Kevin Rooney made a gorgeous point the other day:
Just reverse the numbers. Imagine five hundred million Jews and five million Arabs. I was stunned at the simple brilliance of it. Can anyone picture the Jews strapping belts of razor blades and dynamite
to themselves? Of course not. Or marshaling every fiber and
force at their disposal for generations to drive a tiny Arab State into
the sea? Nonsense. Or dancing for joy at the murder of innocents?
Impossible.Or spreading and believing horrible lies about the Arabs baking their bread with the blood of children? Disgusting. No, as you know, left to themselves in a world of peace, the worst Jews would ever do to people is debate them to death. Mr. Bush, God bless him, is walking a tightrope. I understand that with vital operations coming up against Iraq and others, it's in our interest, as Americans, to try to stabilize our Arab allies as much as possible, and, after all, that can't be much harder than stabilizing a roomful of supermodels who've just had their drugs taken away. However, in any big-picture strategy, there's always a danger of losing moral weight.
We've already lost some. After September 11 our president told
us and the world he was going to root out all terrorists and the
countries that supported them. Beautiful. Then the Israelis, after months and months of having the equivalent of an Oklahoma City every week (and then every day) start to do the same thing we did, and we tell them to show restraint.
If America were being attacked with an Oklahoma City every day,
We would all very shortly be screaming for the administration to just be done with it and kill everything south of the Mediterranean and east
of the Jordan. (Hey, wait a minute, that's actually not such a bad id
. . .
ooh, that is, what a horrible thought, yeah, horrible.)"
