Editorial Blogs On The Edge. http://www.ediblog.com "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it." --Joseph Goebbels The Nazi Minister of Propaganda was correct...and we see it everyday, though most are not cognizant of it. We're affected by it in advertising, from the mouths of politicians and through our daily newspapers. Falsehoods, inaccuracies...and outright lies. And for a variety of reasons (but not good excuses), we choose to believe them.  But some of those lies can be so malignant, that holding onto them...can cause our demise... A prime example is that of the Jewish homeland: Israel. We have either become historical morons, or we have found some convenient anti-Semitism. The historical/archeological evidence that Israel IS, and has always been, the Jewish homeland, is overwhelming. It is not kept clandestine, but is available to everyone globally...everyone, that is, who is interested in truth. But rather than believe and repeat facts, the worldwide media, global leaders and even Jews have bought the vile lie that THEY are occupiers in their OWN land!! What a pandemic deception... The truth, for those interested, IS: The ONLY occupiers of the Jewish homeland, are Arabs falsely claiming ancient Israel to be their own. This is paltering of prodigious proportions and must be countered at every mere mention of the mendacity. Sound like baby steps? Indeed they are...but all good journeys begin with one truth in front of another. Shalom through strength... http://www.ediblog.com/default.htm#Arabs One of the more ruinous manifestations of President Obama's Olive Branch Diplomacy (better known as Kiss Allah's A**) has been the cancellation of Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri's military trial at Guantanamo. You might remember this sinister, Koran toting scumbag as the al Qaeda operative who masterminded the bombing of the USS Cole which resulted in the deaths of 17 sailors. Thanks to Obama's imprudent decision to cancel his case (a gesture designed to assuage the Muslim World)--Nashiri is now in limbo. And--according to the Justice Department--they have no immediate plans for him. Imagine--canceling a case against a man who committed an act of war (against our country) for the singular purpose of appeasing those who follow the very religion which commanded him to do so. http://www.ediblog.com/default.htm#Imagine The tolerance of intolerance in a society speaks volumes about the heart of that culture. The line between right and wrong becomes blurred. It increases crime against the innocent. And the disdain of government officials toward a people group and State for merely being who they are...is even more appalling. Enter Norway... A country with a history of Jew-hatred dating back to the Vikings (1200s). And, during WWII, their brutal behavior toward Jews in helping the Nazis round them up for the death camps...is a vile memory for many. But when you've hated, and tolerated hatred, as long as the natives of The Land of the Midnight Sun have...it's a hard habit to break... Case in point...it appears that the Norwegians have a similar dictionary to that of Muslim terrorists. In Islam, there will only be 'peace' when the entire world is dominated by Islam through either conversion, enslavement or death of the infidels. Yet, with this knowledge out there for all to see, many leaders (our country included) continue to refer to Islam as the 'religion of peace'. Now the Norwegian Deputy Minister (Socialist-Left), Ingrid Fiskaa, told a newspaper that she dreamed about the UN sending rockets against Israel. And she's considered a 'dove'... Aww...how precious...just like those 'peace-lovers' in the West Bank, that the Norwegians adore...dreaming of pieces OF the Israelis, not peace WITH the Israelis. And this is on the heels of the most violent anti-Israel, anti-Jewish riot in Norway history (2009)...where several government officials were sighted. Norwegian Finance Minister Kristin Halvorsen was seen smiling during the Anti-Israel demonstration. Signs around her read, "The greatest axis of evil: USA and Israel." Halvorsen's fellow protestors were also shouting "kill the Jews." I'm sorry, what chapter was that in Dale Carnegie's, "How to Win Friends and Influence People"? Must have missed it... The indisputable hatred for Jews is apparently so deep that a government official is unafraid to be seen on camera with the vile...which makes her vile as well... As far as I'm concerned, Norway's government has given up its membership in the human race. Their behavior is reprehensible. In conclusion, here's a question: Why haven't the other member states in the UN reprimanded Norway for this? Sounds like a reasonable question...but it's also rhetorical. The UN is the biggest appeaser of the intolerant...and ALL against Israel. Hate is a hard habit to break. Shalom through strength... http://www.ediblog.com/default.htm#Hate Imitation leather, artificial crab, fake diamonds...we're all familiar with these and more. They are the faux array we live with daily, for various reasons. But in the Middle East, there's a faux people group that has become an axiomatic populace that has been fooling the gullible...and just continues the masquerade... The so-called 'palestinian' people oddly were not an issue until the end of the Six Day War. And numerous Arab Muslims (i.e. PLO Exec. Zahir Muhsein; King Abdullah of Jordan; Prince Hassan of Jordanian Assembly; Jordan PM Abdul Hamid Sharif and King Hussein) have all stated that there was never a 'palestinian' people OR nation of Palestine. The 'palestinian' campaign has been the greatest fraud perpetrated on the world...and sadly, the ever-increasing Jew-hating segment in the world media has continued the charade... So what's the latest fauxism out of the Arab world? It's a grave one...because it deals with a cemetery... Earlier this year, the Norwegian media outlet NRK reported how Israel was planning to erect a museum atop an ancient Muslim graveyard. It has now been revealed that the graveyard was just a 'Palestinian' deception intended to make Israel look bad. ...and the palterer's parade continues... One of the critics of the museum, Diana Husseini, said: "With the destruction of the graveyard the Israelis are deleting traces of Jerusalem's Arab and Muslim history." Does that name 'Husseini' sound familiar to you? Her ancestor was none other than the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini...the Imam who helped Hitler formulate the 'Final Solution'... ...so I guess she was doing her part in the family business...howbeit, to no avail.  For anyone to ever approach the Mideast situation with any veracity...they must discern whether Israel's partner in negotiation is: Friend or Faux. Shalom through strength... http://www.ediblog.com/default.htm#Palestinians President Obama's (as well as Mayor Bloomberg's) unabashed support for the Ground Zero mosque is the most blatant display of savage insensitivity in our nation's history. By doing so, these two narcissistic numbnuts have not only defecated on the victims of the largest terror attack on US soil--but have also trampled on the raw emotions of the 9/11 Families. It is unfathomable that our great nation has been co-opted by leaders who have such a disturbingly profound disconnect from the immense pain and suffering caused by 19 Muslim men who decided to execute the brutal dictates of their archaic religion. Manifestly, Obama and Bloomberg are more concerned with assuaging and stroking the feelings of those who adhere to such a religion than those who have been forever emotionally scarred by it.  http://www.ediblog.com/default.htm#Savage
