POPSEgalitarian Orthodoxy: “Noble Fiction”—Or Noxious Poison? A number of studies have shown Jewish people have a higher average IQ than non-Jewish whites (109-115 average for Jewish folks, versus 100-103 for non-Jewish whites). The Hitlerites falsely claimed Aryans were just as smart, or, bizarrely, smarter than Jews, and the reason there were a disproportionate number of Jewish lawyers, physicians, journalists, etc., was because of Jews banding together and discriminating against non-Jews, rather than outcomes entirely deserved. Inversion of the truth on IQ differences helped cause hatred and the most monstrous violence the world has ever seen. Today, similar lies are again stoking hatred against Jewish and other whites, and against north Asians as well.

POPSWhat a Waste of Money? These organizations are costing a whopping $83,655 per incident, real or imagined. They need incidents, real or imaginary, to justify their continued existence. Does anyone think that this level of defamation of Jews is for real? I'm reminded of that female who put the swastika on her own door. How much did that incident cost?

POPSThe Loathsome Smearing of Israel’s Critics
The response? There was little attempt to dispute the facts I offered. Instead, some of the most high profile “pro-Israel” writers and media monitoring groups — including Honest Reporting and Camera — said I an anti-Jewish bigot akin to Joseph Goebbels and Mahmoud Ahmadinejadh, while Melanie Phillips even linked the stabbing of two Jewish people in North London to articles like mine. Vast numbers of e-mails came flooding in calling for me to be sacked. Any attempt to describe accurately the situation for Palestinians is met like this. If you recount the pumping of sewage onto Palestinian land, “Honest Reporting” claims you are reviving the anti-Semitic myth of Jews “poisoning the wells.” If you interview a woman whose baby died in 2002 because she was detained — in labour — by Israeli soldiers at a checkpoint within the West Bank, “Honest Reporting” will say you didn’t explain “the real cause”: the election of Hamas in, um, 2006. And on, and on.

POPSShamefull Religious Intollerance That people would be so transparently discriminatory is honestly surprising to me, although it shouldn't be. There is no right to force non-Christians to recite Christian prayers in American public schools. There is no right to put God in the plege. Just like I have no right to force Christians to leave offerings before the statues of the Buddha. But don't get me wrong. This isn't about Christianity. Christianity no where condones this abhorrent and intolerant behavior. This is about the power of discrimination, and it is an addictive social phenomenon. These people would do the exact same thing with another religion. Christianity was just the most convenient vehicle for their hatred at the time. Apparently we still need to change a lot about our society before we can live with our neighbors in peace.

POPSIsrael pumps fuel into Gaza, Terrorists launch rockets.. Hamas and/or the terrorists within Palestinian land *do not* want the people to receive aid. They want them to be deprived and 'victims' because that's the only way they can keep the anti-Israeli hatred red hot and the international community pressuring Israel to commit national suicide.

POPS Middle-East Anaylsis Daniel Pipes Report by Daniel Pipes January 17, 2008 Jerusalem Post George W. Bush's policies toward the Middle East and Islam will loom large when historians judge his presidency. On the occasion of his concluding his 8-day, 6-country trip to the Middle East and entering his final year in office, I offer some provisional assessments. At a time when George W. Bush arouses such intense vituperation among his critics, someone who wishes him well, like myself, criticizes reluctantly. But criticize one must; to pretend all is well, or to remain loyal to the person despite his record, does no one a favor. A frank recognition of shortcomings must precede their repair.

POPSTV Show seeks to Humanize Arab-Israelis More: But "Arab Work" is more than a wacky sitcom about life for the Arab minority in Israel. It's a risky attempt to use slapstick humor to lampoon both sides in this deadly, divisive arena. "It's not perfect, but under the right circumstances it can be for Israeli-Arabs what 'The Cosby Show' was for blacks in America," said Vered Livne, the executive director of Agenda, an Israeli media strategy firm. "It has a chance to lower the barriers that Israeli Jews put up when they hear an Arab voice." Recent studies have found that discrimination against Arab-Israelis is on the rise. In one poll, 60 percent of Jewish Israelis said they felt hatred or hostility when they heard someone speaking Arabic. Three-quarters said they wouldn't live in the same buildings with Arabs. More than half said Arabs and Jews should be separated in places of entertainment.

POPSMainstreaming Jewish Culture in the US Jewish culture and ideas are too often associated with antisemitic focus, whereas Freud, Kafka, Einstein, Marx,Wittgenstein, Woody Allen... The same is true of Palestinian culture which has the highest rate of academic diaspora in the world. Cultural celebration is an antidote to hatred.

POPSCatch All antiSemitism hids Racism, Apartheid, Ethnic Cleansing, Land Theft, Torture, Assassination
Ahmedinejad never vowed to wipe Israel off the map, yet the lie is slyly and regularly repeated to drum up support for an attack on Iran. Israel's supporters level the anti-Semitism charge against Arabs, too, to explain away Arab outrage over Israel's racist and colonialist policies toward Palestinians, defined by land theft and control through ethnic cleansing, imprisoning walls, and the imprisonment and assassination of any Palestinian with leadership potential. As though these are insufficient reasons for hatred of Israel; as though Palestinians would tolerate the ongoing assault on their existence as a nation were non-Jewish oppressors responsible. This pretence that Israel is being persecuted by malevolent Arabs is easily debunked when the facts are considered: take for example kill rates (an average of 4 Palestinian civilians killed for every Israeli killed; about 8 Palestinian children for every Israeli child); house demolitions (thousands of Palestinian homes, 0 Israeli

POPSJewcy: ADL in the Dock for Denial of Armenian Genocide.
"ADL has long since stopped advocating against intolerance, bigotry, and hatred and instead has been a major promoter of Jewish ethnocentrism and exceptionalism. The result has been to give credence to those who espouse some of the worst forms of racism and chauvinism." There is nothing wrong with ethnocentrism if it doesn't blind us to the ethnocentric claims of other ethnos. Exceptionalism - if the Jewish people are not an exception in this world then the word has no meaning. Neither ethnocentrism nor exceptionalism should in itself he held responsible for "some of the worst forms of racism and chauvinism." Most groups are ethnocentric including the Armenians yet they are not held responsible for racism. “The Turks and Armenians need to revisit their past. The Jewish community shouldn't be the arbiter of that history, nor should Congress." Foxman‘s statement is in every way that matters equivalent to Ahmadinejad’s claim that he takes no position on the historicity of
