Tell me again: why do we hate Israel and express so much admiration for Islam?

1 in 4 dislike Jews, are ignorant of Holocaust     "Despite decades of education and outreach by the Jewish community, a quarter of the globe is anti-Semitic, according to a new report by the Anti-Defamation League.

"ADL polled 50,000 people worldwide and discovered a widespread dislike of Jews and ignorance of the Holocaust.

"The report, released May 13, concluded that the least-anti-Semitic country is Laos, while the Palestinians of Gaza and the West Bank are the most anti-Semitic people group (93 percent).

"Abraham Foxman, ADL national director, said that for the first time, “we have a real sense of how pervasive and persistent anti-Semitism is today around the world.' ”
 
Western leaders are unwilling to recognize that Islamic jihadists want to subjugate the world and apply Islamic law to everyone, including them, according to several researchers.
Raymond Ibrahim, a researcher, translator and author, said that because Muslim persecution of Christians and others is “grounded in the theology of Islam, very few politicians are willing to address the root source of it.”
“And of course if you cannot ascertain a problem, you cannot fix it,” he said.
He said politicians and others “can speak openly about, say, the persecution of Christians in Korea, because its source is one man, one regime, who can be demonized or lambasted at will.”
“Moreover, if this one man goes, so does the persecution go with him since it is not based on anything intrinsic to North Korean culture,” Ibrahim said, noting the vibrancy of Christianity in South Korea as evidence.

“Persecuted: The Global Assault on Christians” soundly refutes common assumptions about persecution of Christians around the world.
“ 'But because the subjugation and oppression of Christians is actually mandated in Islamic law, and because it is all but anathema for any Western politician to say anything negative about Islam itself, we are in a position where the root source behind the endemic persecution of Christians all around the Islamic world is rarely if ever addressed by Western leaders and authorities, which will only assure that it continues unabated,” he said." ...

E Rumor: Vladimir Putin Describes President Obama-Unproven!

CHUCKMAN - PUTIN - I BELIEVE THAT'S MATE
Truth or Fiction
Summary of the eRumor:  A statement allegedly by Russian President Vladimir Putin made about U.S. President Obama has gone viral on the World Wide Web.  The statement was, "Negotiating with Obama is like playing chess with a pigeon. The pigeon knocks over all the pieces, shits on the board and then struts around like it won the game."

This one has gone viral on the Internet and Social Media in October 2013 but we have not found any evidence that Vladimir Putin said this of Barack Obama.This may be a joke.




  According to a web blog by
Troy Britain, the term "playing chess with a pigeon" dates back to a March 16, 2005 Amazon.Com review comment posted by Scott D. Weitzenhoffer.   Weitzenhoffer posted the comment in the Amazon review section of Eugenie Scott's book Evolution vs. Creationism: An introduction. 

Satanists at Harvard – The devil is in the details

Legal Insurrection  What would we do without MSNBC?

"In the video below, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes attempts to make some moral equivalency between Satanism, Christianity, freedom of speech and freedom of religion. What he fails to understand and neglects to adequately explain to his handful of viewers is that the outrage over the Harvard black mass wasn’t an attempt to squelch the religious rights of Satanists as much as it was recognition of extremely poor taste on Harvard’s part."

 
"Whether you like the school or not, Harvard is one of the nation’s most prestigious institutions of higher learning and is therefore held to a higher standard. In short, people expect better from Harvard.
As a spiritual entity, Satanism would not exist without Christianity. The very central premise of Satanism is the rejection and mockery of Christianity, which explains why a host on MSNBC would rush to defend it."

Clayton Lockett's war on women

MSNBC paints a worse picture of Republicans than Clayton Lockett. Interviews like this should be classed as campaign donations in kind because, well, they are partners with Biden and Obama.
 
In case you want to contact the Ed Show on Facebook, go here.  Just give comments with substance in them and not inane remarks like "moronic post" and "delusional". Discuss selected points in the interview that you take issue with or they will not take you seriously.



Ann Coulter  "As described in last week's column, The New York Times and other sanctimonious news outlets censored details about the crime that put Clayton Lockett on death row, the better to generate revulsion at his deserved execution. You might say they buried the facts alive.

"For example, the Times neglected to mention anything about the raping that preceded the murdering, which seems odd for a newspaper so consumed with the "War on Women." (At least Lockett never refused to pay for a woman's birth control pills!) "

Nigeria: what to do? What to do?


The White House unleashed a hashtag offensive on Boko Haram demanding they release the Nigerian school girls. Talk about brinksmanship. The White House warned Boko Haram if they do not respond to our hashtags and release the girls, we will un-friend them on Facebook.

America’s Moral Compass ; Does the U.S. have a responsibility to act in Nigeria?

 
... "Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. We don’t have such drones — yet. There is no button to press that would cleanly and safely rescue those girls and put the terrorists out of Nigeria’s misery. We can no more wish that drones will solve the problem of Boko Haram than expect Twitter hashtags to solve it. The only methods available to us involve all sorts of risks, to American lives, American interests, and — also important — to Nigerian lives and interests" ...
 
..."But some non-interventionists reject all of this, arguing that we have neither the right nor the moral standing to impose our ideas of right and wrong on others. This strikes me as an attempt to make a virtue out of having no compass at all."   Jonah Goldberg
 
Bring Back the Girls—QuietlyAmerica has forgotten how to exercise power without swagger.    ... "At the same time, America has to stand, always, for what is right and decent in the world, or it will no longer be America. It needs to be able to do things only it can do at the moment, and do them bravely, successfully—and modestly.
...
"The White House would have to dummy up too, which would be hard for them. Staffers always want to make a president look good, and Obama staffers seem to think their primary purpose is to aggrandize the president. But there would be no network special with a breathless Brian Williams giving us the tick-tock on how it all went down and how the president kept his cool when all about him others were losing theirs."

"Which gets me to my dream for the schoolgirls." ...
