Did you know that there are few journalists in Washington who can throw the White House off its stride? Bob Woodward is one of them. Woodward’s new book, “State of Denial,” paints a damning picture of White House policy in the aftermath of the Iraq invasion. The White House is now in full damage-control mode over Woodward’s new book.
Did you know that a tanned Jewish vacationer escorted off plane as passengers applause? “To the applause of fellow passengers, the Jewish designer was escorted from a New York flight as a potential bomber. Because, he tells Sophie Goodchild, of his holiday tan.”
And if this doesn’t remind anyone of Nazism and McCarthyism, and all other Fascisms, and scare the hell out of them, I would say, wake up!!! (Not that I can’t appreciate the irony of the fact that this man happened to be Jewish….) Islamophobia?
Did you know that the Palestinians are incapable and undesirous of own country? Let the Mossad teach you.
Did you know that Rice proposed ‘creative means’ to bolster Abbas, weaken Hamas?
Creative means not exactly democratic, not exactly according to international law, and not exactly what the Palestinian people wanted when they voted, but hey, what do THEY know??
Condi has proved so good in dealing with the other problems, especially in the Middle East, so far, she will certainly be able to overcome this one easily.
Rice to Livni: Boycott of Palestinians is effective -They’re starving! Hurrah!!!
Be proud America, Europe: Children working carrying luggage of travelers at checkpoints to help feed their starving families in Gaza.

Did you know that Israeli army demands Palestinians NOT allow Israeli help during harvest!?
The Israel Defense Forces is demanding that Palestinian farmers not allow Israeli and foreign sympathizers to escort them during the olive harvest to places where military protection is needed against abusive settlers, Palestinian sources in the Nablus region told Haaretz.
An Israeli security source confirmed the report, saying that IDF officers have been influenced by statements of settlers, who say they are enraged during the harvest by the presence of Israeli leftists who act as provocateurs. A 2005 memo to soldiers from the Civil Administration regarding the olive-picking season states: “Involvement of various entities, Israeli and foreign, is expected, as an ‘aid’ to the Palestinians in the harvest and as a motive for creating provocations.”
Did you know that Yossi Sarid: ” Israel does not want peace with Syria. Period.” (Or anyone else…..)
Here is a virtual game after a real war. It works, and the music is a rip off the Israeli National Anthem. [Hat tip Mary & Gilad Atzmon]
Did you know that not 2, but 4 Israeli companies in global top 100 arms sellers. Impressive!?
Did you know that US offered 9 Gitmo prisoners back to UK, with conditions, but UK says no thanks!?
Did you know that more than 3,500 housing units are being built in West Bank (AGAINST road map!!)
Last year 4,144 were built. Also building on 2 new Jewish only roads have resumed 31 outposts are being expanded. While everyone was looking at Lebanon, outposts were being expanded.
Poll: Fatah and Hamas would be tied if new elections are called.
They had just about formed a unity government before Ms. Rice summoned Abbas to DC and probably used some carrot and some stick to get him to call the deal off…. and start this war. Fatah started it, it is clear, and obviously at Ms. Rice’s command. (No doubt with a little weapons help from Israel.) So that she can go in there next week and say, see Hamas not working, Abbas is our boy, he will create an emergency government, the Palestinians will get a little food, and they will shut their mouths and let Israel continue as it is. And what do the Palestinian people have to say? Nothing. They voted wrong, not what the US wanted. For that, they deserve to be punished.
Did you know that Atta’s father says the video is a fake?
Did you know that the Israeli “Bomblets” Plague Lebanon - killed 18, wounded 109 since Sept. 28?
Did you know that US no fly list includes names of 14 dead hijackers, Saddam, Morales, Nabih Berri?!
Did you know that an American Palestinian, who helped create a telecommunications company in Ramallah, is not allowed to enter, in Israel’s new strategy of “expulsion”.
You might be interested in the history of such a strategy: The Forced Emigration of German Jews. “The first major step leading to the “Final Solution” was the attempt on the part of the Nazi regime to force Jews to emigrate out of Germany.” Which proves that the Israelis DID learn something from the Holocaust!
Did you know that Israel is beating war drums again: They are preparing to attack…?
Did you know that India is to purchase Israeli-made anti-aircraft missile systems?
Did you know that an Israeli Att Gen to probe another Knesset member for suspicion of bribery, breach?
Did you know that and Israeli national is among six charged with spying in Nigeria?
Did you know that the French Embassy in NY cancels book party because author criticize Israel? (also here)
“NEW YORK - The French Embassy on Monday canceled a New York party for a book about Vichy France’s collaboration with Nazi Germany because of the author’s postscript that says Israel has oppressed Palestinians.”
This story, by the way, appears nowhere else…. every time something like this happens, and it is happening more often, especially in NY, the media - and not only the mainstream media, but also bloggers like Huffington and Rawstory, hush it up, ignore and suppress it. The Israeli Lobby, or whatever you want to call it, cannot be allowed to continue to threaten and forbid free speech! [Hat tip: Editerette]
War corporatism - Not all Fascism is like Adolf Hitler?
Did you know that Israeli border police killed 2 Egyptian policemen, 1 Bedouin, 1 Sudanese refugee?!
Life is cheap in the Middle East (not Israeli life, of course), they all look alike, and why arrest them if you can shoot em dead?
Did you know that estimates of 655,000 excess Iraqi deaths since start of war? (PDF report)
Did you know that Bedouins are Israeli enough to serve in army, but not to have an Israeli ID card.
Despite having served as an army scout, Srahin has no civilian Israeli status. So he has no health insurance…. APARTHEID?
Did you know that Israel used new weapon prototype in Gaza Strip?
An investigative report to be aired on Italian television Wednesday raises the possibility that Israel has used an experimental weapon in the Gaza Strip in recent months, causing especially serious physical injuries, such as amputated limbs and severe burns.
Interesting way to test weapons, don’t you think so?… Israel learned so much from the Holocaust…
Last but not least, did you know that a lost tribe of Jews migrates to… Palestine?!
They found a group of 218 people belonging to an Indian tribe who “lost descendants of ancient Israelites” (descended from one of the 10 lost tribes of Israel). Soon be welcomed to their new homes (my occupied home) in Israeli settlements in the occupied land Palestine. [Hat tip: Editerette]

Did you know that your “did you know” segment has brought tears to my eyes and a growing hatred of the Zionist cause?
Most of this information is not known in the west.
I pass your link to anyone over here who is willing to listen.
Again, I thank you.
Two sides to every story and your side doesn’t create scary images of an enemy like Bush does!

“Did you know that the Palestinians are incapable and undesirous of own country? Let the Mossad teach you.”
Palestinian Unwillingness - The Palestinians rejected the UN partition plan of 1947. News flash: So did the Jews. Months prior to the scheduled resolution of the issue, Israel was declared a nation, and the Palestinians dared defy their forced expulsion from their own lands.
The Palestinians accepted the Oslo Peace accords. So did Israel. The Palestinians were so hopeful, many who had been expulsed from their homes returned to restart their lives. Afterwards, the Israelis forged ahead with their agenda of segregation, occupation, and expansion. Barak’s proposal of 2000 was looked upon as another lie from the snake’s mouth.
Palestinian Incapability - One who’s hands are tied by the vicious occupation of the Israelis can hardly be called incapable.
I welcome anyone to read this site thoroughly, and then tell me about incapabilties.
http://www.btselem.org/English/
Every effort by the Palestinians to build a sound society has been crushed by Israel.
Students intent on forging a future for themselves and their families are detained daily by the IDF, without prior suspicion, without acts of terror, without trial, without charge.
Palestinian farmlands are daily expropriated by Israel. The Palestinians, unable to subsist on their own land, often enter Israel illegally to perform menial labor for the Israelis.
Who is uprooting the olive trees? It isn’t the Palestinians.
Who is daily building the cantons and bantustans? It isn’t the Palestinians.
Who is daily controlling and usually preventing the every movement of men, women and children to their homes, their offices, their schools, their places of worship? It isn’t the Palestinians.
Who is bulldozing homes over the heads of the families living there? It isn’t the Palestinians.
Who is holding the M-16s, firing rockets from Apache helicopters, and using experimental weapons on civilian populations? It isn’t the Palestinians.
58 years of this, and the Palestinians are called Unwilling and Incapable?! Bite your forked tongues, Olmert, Sharon, Barak, Netanyahu, Meir, Ben-Gurion, and all the rest.
