Biased BBC

The BBC demonstrates in a photo-series, as if we didn’t know, that they are absolutely anti-Israel in every way.

Note that it’s not until picture 7 of 8 that you see an Israeli family sitting in a ‘rocket-proof’ shelter. Prior to that just the poor defenseless Lebanese (I agree this is a shame for most Lebanese, but they should stop supporting Hizb’Allah. It’s as simple as that).

Laugh? I nearly started.

The two biggest terror-sponsors in the Middle-East offer to help out in ending the current….unpleasantness:

The Tehran government called for a cease-fire, followed by a prisoner exchange, and Syria also promised to aid mediation efforts.

Dear Messrs. Ahmadinejad and Assad:

F–k. Off. You’re. Next.

I Survived the Tampa Invasion

Vinnie’s right! I’m back, and extremely lazy today. I’m only here to check in and tell you I’ll have the gory details tomorrow, with pictures too! Cut me some slack–I’m still trying to recover (it usually takes me a full two days to completely recover from a night of sloppy drunkenness, and I have a week’s worth of very minimal sleep on top of that). The short version: it was great!!!

For now, check in with Girl on the Right, Wild Thing, A Mom and Her Blog (a cross-post from GotR) for their reports on the Tampa Invasion. SADIE LOU!!! is just jealous. :razz:

Jody and Linda were there too, but haven’t posted on it. However, you simply MUST SEE Jody’s new adventure on the internets, God Divas. It’s wonderful!!! And Linda has been posting like a madwoman about the crisis in Israel, with must-read updates coming from a friend of hers right in the thick of things in Israel. Start here, and keep reading (all in this category).

THANK YOU! to Vinnie, Martin, Larry, and John for keeping things going here! We had almost DOUBLE the weekend traffic that we usually have here while I was gone. (Maybe I should disappear a little longer?) :mrgreen:

UPDATE: I almost forgot - Be sure to check out the interview with fellow Cotillion chickie Alabama Improper at basil’s blog!

She’s Alive……ALIVE!!!!!

Thought I’d bust in on Martin’s awesome coverage of Lindsey Lohan’s vocal abilities to let you know that I talked with Beth briefly on the phone today, and that she is, in fact, alive and well and extremely lazy.

Well, extremely lazy for you and me, normal for her.

:mrgreen:

Lindsay Lohan cannot sing

I was inspired by Agent Bedhead to do some Googling of Lindsay Lohan. I found what purports to be her official site. I don’t think it is.

I will warn readers of a nervous disposition, or those fitted with a pacemaker or other cardiac control device, not to visit the site with their speakers on.

Because Lindsay Lohan cannot farking sing.

Even with all that engineering and production, La Lohan can barely hit a note.

Al and Tipper Gore. Both nuts.

I was monkeying around trying to buy a coffee table, when I came across a series of fine art photographs by Tipper Gore - since when was Tipper Gore a fine art photographer?

Each piece of fine art photgraphy is personally signed by Tipper Gore and is accompanied with a certificate of authenticity

Yay!! Does she have one of him and Al frenching on stage in 2000?

(Yes, it’s still the most vomit-inducing image I have ever seen. Any excuse to show it).

Anyway, you’ll be glad to know that a portion of the profits from these ‘pieces of art’ goes to the Climate Project, a nutty environmental 501(c)3 set up by the Gores:

The Climate Project is a 501(3)(c) non-profit organization devoted to creating the opportunity to move our nation to act to reverse the growing crisis of global warming. In concert, we can offer an optimistic and credible vision that solutions will be feasible and profitable- and that America will be far better off embracing them.

Working together (or independently) and sharing and coordinating resources, we can mobilize new constituencies and allies, and create a robust political base for transformational change. It is time for a common vision and broad leadership to meet this challenge.

What does that even mean?

The Climate Project is dedicated to research and community information programs that will spread the message of opportunity to solve the global warming challenge. Tax exempt status of contributions is pending with the IRS.

The man is a total nutcase, and she’s obviously the same way.

Inside the mind of Hizb’Allah

WaPo reporter Robin Wright writes a moderately sympathetic post-interview piece on Hasan Nasrallah. In fairness the interview took place before the latest performance of this bloody, eighteen-hundred-act tragedy.

Nasrallah is a man of God, gun and government, a cross between Ayatollah Khomeini and Che Guevera, an Islamic populist as well as a charismatic guerrilla tactician.

Oh yeah. And a murderer. She forgot that bit.

Hezbollah has become an enterprise in the dahiya, often outperforming the state. It runs a major hospital as well as schools, discount pharmacies, groceries and an orphanage. It runs a garbage service and a reconstruction program for homes damaged during Israel’s invasion. It supports families of the young men it sent off to their deaths. Altogether, it benefits an estimated 250,000 Lebanese and is the country’s second-largest employer.

It’s almost like Hizb’Allah is the Franciscan Sisters of Mercy, if you squint.

For six years, Hezbollah also demonstrated some military restraint. When Israel ended its 18-year occupation of Lebanon in 2000, Nasrallah declared, “We have liberated the south. Next we’ll liberate Jerusalem.”

They have been telling us what they intend for years and years, and we stick our fingers in our ears, close our eyes and shout out ‘blah, blah, blah’.

In 2004, Hezbollah issued a communique condemning the beheading of American contractor Nicholas Berg by al-Qaeda in Iraq as a “despicable act” that did “grave damage to Islam and the Muslims.”

What a good fellow, perhaps he’s not such a barbaric animal as one might first think.

But the day before we talked, a suicide bomber had detonated a bomb at a Tel Aviv restaurant during the busy lunch hour, killing 11 and wounding more than 60 civilians. The bomb was laced with nails and other projectiles…

Nope. You were right. He’s a barbarian, with whom Israel cannot and should not do business.

Wipe. Them. All. Out.

This is getting serious

Hizb’Allah have made a very big mistake, and fired a medium range missile into an Israeli town, killing eight, and wounding many more:

HAIFA, Israel, July 16 — The train platform, slick with blood and littered with chunks of fallen roof, was the grim evidence confirming a prediction that Israeli security chiefs had made for years. Hezbollah, they said, had acquired larger, more powerful rockets that could soar over Israel’s thinly populated north and wreak havoc on major cities.

It seems a significant uptick in the scale of Israeli retaliation is about to take place:

“Our homes and families are being attacked and there is no way we will let this continue,” said Israel’s defense minister, Amir Peretz, who visited Haifa after the attack.

Mr. Peretz said that Hezbollah was firing its rockets from civilian areas, and that Israel would not hesitate to strike at such sites.

I would imagine a location from which rockets are being fired is about to be levelled.

This Israeli certainly has the right idea:

“We should wipe Hezbollah off the map without pity and without listening to the criticism from the rest of the world,” said Sarah Benchetrit, 57, who was at the hospital with her husband, who had come for a checkup.

F–king stupid, stupid, monkeys.

Avril Lavigne marries.

It was announced with much fanfare today that 21 year old sometime punk/sk8/goth/pop/phoney, Avril Lavigne, had married Derek Whibley,26, lead singer of Sum 41.

It was a “short, classy ceremony with the sound of helicopters droning overhead carrying photographers trying to get a shot,” a source told the wire service.

I would imagine it will be a short, classy marriage too.

The four-man band’s latest album, Go Chuck Yourself, was released in Canada in March.

Geddit? Go CHUCK yourself!!

The beat goes on…

Israel isn’t remotely phased by the latest hot-air-fest going on in the feeble corridors of European power.

BEIRUT, Lebanon Jul 15, 2006 (AP)— Waves of warplanes thundering through the darkness bombed Beirut’s southern suburbs for hours early Sunday, a day after Israel stepped up its air strikes and tightened a noose around this reeling nation.

‘Reeling’ due to their idiotic, supine loyalty to Hizb’Allah (I think that’s the literal translation of ‘Party of God’, but really, who cares?).

Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad again condemned Israel’s Lebanon offensive Saturday, telling Tehran’s state television, “The Zionist regime behaves like Hitler.”

Hitler is his farking hero, so presumably his remarks are complimentary. Tel Aviv to Teheran: You’re next.

Try not to laugh:

But moderates led by Saudi Arabia, bickering with Syria and other backers of Hezbollah, denounced the Lebanese guerrilla group’s actions in provoking the latest conflict.

The Saudis are ‘moderate’ in this matter inasmuch as they can see which way this is going: Hamas and Hizb’Allah are about to get an object farking lesson in schoolyard realities - he with the biggest stick, wins.

[An aside:

The seaport is adjacent to downtown Beirut, a district rebuilt at a cost of billions of dollars after the 1975-1990 civil war.

I was offered a job in 1998 project-managing construction work in downtown Beirut, by Solidere, a large developer. I didn't take it, preferring instead the relative calm of Saint Louis, Missouri. But the money was.....astronomical.]

The brunt of the onslaught focused more and more on Hezbollah’s top leadership in south Beirut and the eastern city of Baalbek.

Good. Hit their homes, their cars, their pools, their families. This cancer needs to be cut out, and now.

Never quit the fight

Ralph Peters, a retired army officer, has a new book out called, ‘Never Quit the Fight.’ As usual it’s full of common sense such as this:

Our policy toward terrorists and insurgents in civilian clothing should be straightforward and public: Surrender before firing a shot or taking hostile action toward our troops, and we’ll regard you as a legal prisoner. But once you’ve pulled a trigger, thrown a grenade or detonated a bomb, you will be killed. On the battlefield and on the spot.

It seems to me that he is correct. Forget using the terrorists as sources of intel. I can tell you for a fact that they are told that once captured they should claim abuse. It’s in their playbook.
He explains how they dealt with now:

Consider today’s norm: A terrorist in civilian clothes can explode an IED, killing and maiming American troops or innocent civilians, then demand humane treatment if captured - and the media will step in as his champion. A disguised insurgent can shoot his rockets, throw his grenades, empty his magazines, kill and wound our troops, then, out of ammo, raise his hands and demand three hots and a cot while he invents tales of abuse.

The bullshi’ite called political correctness is even polluting our military:

Sadly, even our military has been infected by political correctness. Some of my former peers will wring their hands and babble about “winning hearts and minds.” But we’ll never win the hearts and minds of terrorists. And if we hope to win the minds, if not the hearts, of foreign populations, we must be willing to kill the violent, lawless fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population determined to terrorize the rest.

Look, these people are vermin. Plain and simple. There is only one way to deal with them:

Ravaged societies crave and need strict order. Soft policies may appear to work in the short term, but they fail overwhelmingly in the longer term. Wherever we’ve tried sweetness and light in Iraq, it has only worked as long as our troops were present - after which the terrorists returned and slaughtered the beneficiaries of our good intentions. If you wish to defend the many, you must be willing to kill the few.

Here is the sum of it all:

Instead of worrying over trumped-up atrocities in Iraq (the media give credence to any claim made by terrorists), we should stop apologizing and take a stand. That means firm rules for the battlefield, not Gumby-speak intended to please critics who’ll never be satisfied by anything America does.

And finally:

The ultimate act of humanity in the War on Terror is to win. To do so, we must kill our enemies wherever we encounter them. He who commits an act of terror forfeits every right he once possessed.

Whoopin’ It Up In Tampa

Because I’ve personally met Beth, and Linda, and Wild Thing (and her Salty Old Stuntman, too), plus I’m married to one, I have the inside knowledge of the Cotillion.

The straight scoop. The real deal. The inside story.

Which is I am pleased to bring you a picture of the Cotillion slumber party currently going on in Tampa this weekend.

Man, do these gals know how to par-tay!

Set your Tivo, DVR, VCR

Excellent.

Comedy Central are showing the Tom Cruise/Scientology episode of South Park that they pulled when the Insane Clown Midget™ got his burlap panties in a wad earlier in the year.

Trapped in the Closet” was never repeated — but it will be this Wednesday, and it will end up on a DVD. Both Parker and Stone tried to stay away from the controversy because they loathe Cruise so much — getting involved in it meant having “that Tom Cruise stink.”

Beautiful!!

Confused, contradictory report on BBC

The BBC continues its long tradition of filing editorials dressed as reporting.

Driving through sleepy mountain villages in northern Galilee this week, along Israel’s border with Lebanon, I began to understand Israel’s fear.

Different Arab peoples in this region are vying with one another to become Israel’s greatest enemy.

Sounds like a reasonable position, yes?

Increasingly confined by barriers and checkpoints into little reservations, it is little wonder that Palestinians applaud Sheikh Nasrallah, the spiritual head of the Hezbollah, when he calls for the release of some of the thousands of Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.

Errr, because Israel is building a fence to protect herself from terrorist rocket attacks, it’s easy to see why Palestinians think the perps should be released?

I’m afraid I don’t have the nuance or sophistication to link those two ideas. I’m a simpleton, clearly.

“Only violence pays,” has been the lesson often taught both by Israel, and by the many militant groups who oppose her in the Middle East.

And pupils on both sides have graduated with honours.

Violence, by Israel? Reactively, yes. Vastly different from Hezbollah’s brand of gangsterism.

Read it all. It’s the very pinnacle of muddled liberal handwringing.

My take on the current crisis.

Maybe I am a nutcase but I think a big part of the current crisis in the Middle East has to do with a failed Iranian nuke program. Notice how the Iran seems to want to get ahold of those Israeli soldiers? Well if that were to happen the Israelis would bomb the hell out of vast pieces of Persian territory.
After the bombing the Iranians will claim that substantial damage was done to their program, and they now have to start over at block one. Nuts? Maybe, but it sure keeps them from losing face. It’s better to say you got your ass kicked than to admit the program you bragged about, and threatened the west with, is an absolute failure. Once again the Muslims will show what losers they are, and that they reached their high point in the middle ages.
