POPSUN War Crime Accusations called Anti-Semitic.
The first thing to point out is that the South African judge in charge of this UN report is Jewish. So calling the report "anti-Semetic," is bizarre. Secondly, all criticism of Israel gets called "anti-Semetic," and this is an extreme example of that. (Since the judge in charge of the report is Jewish). No? Third, Most people are making their judgements based on actions -- like the blockade genocide in the Gaza Strip. It's fair enough and in fact moral to condemn this blockade (and it has nothing to do with racism). If racist accusation were allowed to avoid any criticism then during the evil rule of Hitler in Germany, he should have deflected any criticism by calling it "anti-German racism." No? Distress at the genocide of the Palestinian people, the slow starvation of over a million and a half people in the Gaza strip, has nothing to do with racism. End the blockade and much criticism would also end. It's a shame this ploy distract from looking at the real issues

POPSUrge World Leaders: Vote No to Biased Goldstone Report I'm here at the emergency session of the U.N. Human Rights Council, facing a draft resolution by the Arab and Islamic blocs that seeks to endorse the biased Goldstone Report"a 500-page document that falsely accuses Israel of “deliberate attacks” against civilians during its defensive war against Hamas rocket attacks last January. (For details, see www.unwatch.org/goldstone.) Adoption of this dangerous text will trigger proceedings toward the indictment and prosecution of Israeli leaders and officers in the International Criminal Court. What’s at stake is the very survival of democratic societies under the assault of terrorists"enemies of human rights who cynically invoke its protective cover. The debate began yesterday and reaches its climax today. UN Watch will be there to address the assembled delegates. Representing us will be none other than Col. Richard Kemp, former commander of the British forces in Afghanistan,

POPSShip of Fools: Obama's Intimates and Advisors A sampling of President Barack Hussein Obama's morally bankrupt White House "Brain Trust" 1. Valerie Jarrett - Jarrett served in the administration of Chicago Mayor Harold Washington (who, prior to his election, failed to file income tax returns for 19 years and during it maintained dubious Socialist ties) as well as in the scandal-ridden, current Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley. 2. Patrick Gaspard - Prior to coming on board as President Obama's right-hand man, Mr. Gaspard was a registered federal lobbyist for the SEIU - the union members (thugs?) called-in by the Administration to run interference (sometimes violent) between Democrat members of Congress who support ObamaCare and their own constituents. Prior to that, Gaspard worked for ACORN - 3. Eric Holder- "In 1999, over the objections of the FBI, the Bureau of Prisons, and prosecuting attorneys, Holder supported Clinton's commutation of the sentences of 16 FALN conspirators.

POPS"What are you, an anti-semite?" No foreign country must have any influence on the American government. But Israel is special. Why? Because special people living in America, who compelled to grab our government to the throat with total disregard for the rest, whom they deemed subsequent to them. I think this is something even beyond of the treason. Cabal? To say this you risk to be accused not only in antisemitism, but in paranoia and conspirology. Not so threatening risk, isn't it? Or it is?

POPSTurning Toward Humanity's Unity I've never bought the lie about the differences among races. I've never seen the human family as anything distinct from a single family. Different hues of one color. In an era when we may see a rise in anti-Semitism and in racism, this photo reminds me there is hope that humanity's old ways will change, and that progress toward tolerance will continue.

POPS"Israeli soldiers killed Palestinians to sell their organs" more: Mr Bildt added that condemnation of anti-Semitism is "the only issue on which there has ever been complete unity in the Swedish parliament". The story in Aftonbladet - Sweden's biggest-selling daily newspaper - claimed that Israeli soldiers snatched Palestinian youths and returned their dismembered bodies a few days later. The newspaper claimed that these incidents date as far back as 1992. The Israeli press is reporting that the country's foreign ministry is considering its options in response to Sweden's position, among them postponing a scheduled visit to Israel by Mr Bildt. The Swedish foreign minister is due to travel to the country in 10 days.

POPSBritain/U.S. knew about extermination of Jews, Vatican claims
The editorial is the Vatican's latest effort to rehabilitate the reputation of Pope Pius, whose reluctance to denounce the Nazis publicly prompted accusations of anti-Semitism and earned him the title "Hitler's Pope". L'Osservatore dismissed such claims as a "radically false" characterisation of the pontiff's wartime record. It quoted Morgenthau as saying that as early as Aug 1942, the US government "knew that the Nazis were planning to exterminate all the Jews of Europe". In his diary, Morgenthau cited a telegram dated Aug 24, 1942, and passed on to the US State Department, that relayed a report of Hitler's plan to kill between 3.5 million and four million Jews, possibly using cyanide poison. L'Osservatore, which is regarded as the semi-official mouthpiece of the Holy See, reproduced a copy of the telegram. American officials had "dodged their grim responsibility, procrastinated when concrete rescue schemes were placed before them, and even suppressed information about

POPSRemarks by President Obama at Buchenwald Concentration Camp Deutsche Übersetzung: hagalil.com Bis heute gibt es jene, die darauf beharren, dass es den Holocaust niemals gab – eine Leugnung der Fakten und der Wahrheit, die jeder Grundlage entbehrt, ignorant und abscheulich ist. Dieser Ort ist die elementarste Zurechtweisung solcher Gedanken, eine Mahnung an unsere Pflicht, uns gegen jene zu stellen, die Lügen über unsere Geschichte verbreiten. Bis heute gibt es auch jene, die jegliche Form der Intoleranz fortsetzen, Hass, der seine Opfer herabwürdigt und uns alle herabsetzt. Dieser Ort lehrt uns, dass wir immer wachsam sein müssen, wenn es um die Verbreitung des Bösen in unserer Zeit geht, dass wir die falsche Behaglichkeit, dass das Leid Anderer nicht unser Problem ist, ablehnen und wir uns dem Widerstand gegen jene verpflichten müssen, die Andere unterdrücken wollen, um ihren eigenen Interessen zu dienen.

POPSBNP is at the heart of web of Nazi filth But he admits that this does not mean the party’s Nazi ideals have been “sold out”. He set out the party’s strategy at a meeting organised by the Ku Klux Klan in the US in 2000. He told the gathering that, “there’s a difference between selling out your ideas, and selling your ideas. “And the British National Party isn’t about selling out its ideas…but we are determined now to sell them. And that means basically to use the saleable words. “Instead of talking about racial purity, we talk about identity.” This involves wrapping themselves in the British flag and attempting to give voice to a “white identity”.

POPSU.N. body adopts resolution on religious defamation
Defamation of religious is a serious affront to human dignity leading to a restriction on the freedom of their adherents and incitement to religious violence," the adopted text read, adding that "Islam is frequently and wrongly associated with human rights violations and terrorism." It called on states to ensure that religious places, sites, shrines and symbols are protected, to reinforce laws "to deny impunity" for those exhibiting intolerance of ethnic and religious minorities, and "to take all possible measures to promote tolerance and respect for all religions and beliefs." ISLAMOPHOBIA, CHRISTIANOPHOBIA, ANTI-SEMITISM The 47-member Human Rights Council has drawn criticism for reflecting mainly the interests of Islamic and African countries, which when voting together can control its agenda. Addressing the body, Germany said on behalf of the European Union that while instances of Islamophobia, Christianophobia, anti-Semitism and other forms of religious discrimination s

POPS"ISNA Rejects All Expressions of Racism and Bigotry" Safi is coy about specifics, but here they are: the Investigative Project on Terrorism published a report yesterday, "'Mainstream' Islamist Convention Features Hate Speech and Hezbollah Defense" in which it broke the news that the conference "featured speakers spewing raw anti-Semitism, homophobic rhetoric and defense of the terrorist group Hezbollah." It then provides details on several speakers but zeroes in on Warith Deen Umar, the former head of the New York state prison chaplain program who lost his job after the Wall Street Journal exposed his pro-bin Ladin views in front-page story in February 2003. Umar appeared at ISNA on July 5 to promote a new book, Jews for Salaam: The Straight Path to Global Peace, in the context of a "Meet The Author" program. In the course of it, he attacked "unholy Jews" such as Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod, two of President Obama's top aides, by name as part of a conspiracy "to control the world."

POPSChilling Report Documents Antisemitism Humanity has not graduated to greater maturity when antisemitism exists. In fact, it seems as if the threat of such hate is more pronounced now than it has been since World War II.

POPSDefining the World by their Prejudices Because, they believe, the shooter hated Jews, he had to be a “right-winger” because the right wing is the source for anti-Semitism in America. Such an attitude shows that while they accuse those of us on the right of living in the past, their understanding of anti-Semitism dates back at least forty years. Their views of conservatives have little to do with the reality of the conservative movement in America today, indeed, with the conservative movement as it has been evolving at least since William F. Buckely, Jr. launched the National Review in 1955. And yet, all too many in the MSM, equally clueless about the ideas undergirding American conservatism, don’t challenge them on their misunderstanding.

POPSMore Czars Than There are in the Russian Section of Hell The Obama Administration is not the first administration to appoint someone with broad powers to oversee a function. You know. A “czar.” So, why stop at 25-30 czars? Why not appoint a bunch more: * Gaffe Czar: Joe Biden. Sure, he’s vice-president, but he’s already doing the job of Gaffe Czar; why not make it official? * News Czar: Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf. You knew him as “Baghdad Bob.” He’d fit right in with this Administration. And it would give Robert Gibbs a break from having to make up explanations for things all by himself. * Anti-semitism Czar: Jeremiah Wright. He’s already promoting anti-semitism as much as anyone is this country. This would give him a larger platform. * Fashion Czar: Michelle Obama. Remember Jackie Kennedy? Michelle Obama is equally qualified. Except for having poor taste in clothes. And men. Previously, we’ve had Drug Czars, Energy Czars, and so on. But, Barack Obama has gone Czar crazy.
