All Hate Matters

Democrats condemning anti-semitism? It's complicated!

This generational divide has been a slow train wreck coming. My guess? I will say that old-timers like me grew up with the Six Day war, the 1973 war, and the 1972 Munich Olympics. Distinguishing the good guys from the bad guys was pretty easy and Israel also benefited from an underdog status

My kids have grown up with two decades of Intifadas, Jewish settlements, and images of an unassailable Israel beating down hapless Palestinians. Arguments about the two-state solution and the right of return get pushed to one side - the Palestinians look like the sympathetic underdogs to them.

For a bit of flavor, this is from a guest piece in Vox by a Palestinian activist:

For her, this means speaking up for victims of the Saudi war on Yemen and citizens living under the brutal Saudi regime. It also means speaking up for the Palestinians. Just as it is becoming clearer to many Americans that a progressive agenda in the United States includes solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for freedom and equality, Omar’s support for Palestinians is part of her core belief system. As such, she and other new members of Congress are creating the space for others to speak up on this issue without fear.

Omar was elected in 2018, a remarkably deadly year for Palestinians at the hands of the Israeli military. According to a United Nations Human Rights Council Report, the Israeli military killed 138 protesters and injured more than 9,000 others between March and December of that year. They protested to demand an end to 70 years of refugeehood, while also demanding an end to Israel’s cruel and illegal siege of Gaza during weekly protests known as the Great March of Return.

I give that an eye-roll. I suspect Nancy Pelosi does too, but she has to herd these people and good luck to her.

EXCELLENT: Jonathan Chait goes all around on this.

Herding cats comes to mind

[matt - deplore me if you must]

Good little Hitlers.

[Comanche Voter]

Ah ahistorical spoiled rich little kids. There's been a giant dustup out here in La La Land. Kids from Newport Beach high schools got together for a party drinking beer--and horror of horrors arranged some red plastic beer cups in a swastika form. They naturally took pictures and posted them on social media. And other teens, who had not been at the party, but knew the kids at the party got the vapors--and posted it all on larger social media. The parents and the school board, and the newspapers all have their panties in a wad.

Rich kids at Sidwell Friends--the children of our nation's "elite" (aka legends in their own minds--both the parents and the kids) are doing the same sort of stuff.

I wouldn't dump a bucket of warm beer (or reprocessed beer for that matter) on any of them--even if they were on fire.

[matt - deplore me if you must]

One of the NB kids was asked to leave his Catholic HS already. There's high school dumb and then there's brownshirt/burqa dumb. I think this was a case of high school dumb.

I keep on referring back to works like True Believer and Mass Man, but this is not what we are seeing. This is a new form of groupthink promoted by the elite.

Corbyn in the UK is growing into the second coming of Ernst Roehm complete with party purges. Our home grown anti - semites are more of the Black Muslim/Middle Eastern variety for the most part. But now the campuses are infected as well.

And to top it off the Somali clan wars are coming to Lake Woebegon.

The Left will tolerate female genital mutilation but they cannot tolerate a late term infant. Or dissent.

[Narciso79]

Well hes more like the Soviet tool in the fourth protocol,

It's not actually complicated. Maybe this kerfuffle will help to erode the reflexive tendency of Americans of the culturally Judaic nature to lean far left.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

Willard;
I have to confess I never got the fascination with Big Sur. The ocean is largely remote and inaccessible and the views are mostly from a half mile away and there's barely a place to stand up.
The stretch of coast from Mendocino south to around Sea Ranch or so is IMO much prettier, more accessible, less crowded, in a banana belt of decent weather and has a vastly better array of small towns, redwoods, restaurants and flat areas where one may even stand up and walk about.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

Chait's a dick.

[MissMarple2]

I don't see how the democrats are going to hold together with this failure to vote on the anti-religious hate bill (which is what it morphed into from anti-Semitism).

Even if Pelosi manages to hold them together, they have GOT to be losing voters based on this, plus the late-term/infanticide votes, the open borders, and their desire for much higher taxes.

I was a democrat until 1980. I was 32 that year. I had suffered through Jimmy Carter's pathetic presidency and looked at the mobs of leftists in the street, and suddenly Reagan looked like an alternative that wasn't so bad, even though the press kept referring to him as a "Grade B movie actor."

So, I voted for Reagan, and have never voted democrat again. And Jimmy Carter wasn't nearly as bad as the crop the democrats are bringing forth now.

Maybe Trump's Magic Wand makes the democrats all do insane stuff.

[Narciso79]

Btw there were intifada in 1920 (as soon as Arafat's uncle got charge) 1929, notably in Hebron and 1936-39, that was a nazi aided project.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

What can you do with progs who write slop like that excerpt TM quotes?
They have no connection to reality or morality so they cannot be reasoned with.
As rabid ideologues they'll cling to our throats like pit bulls without a lethal dose of reality being applied.
Can we ask PETA to euthanize them for us and then euthanize PETA when they're done?

As Bob Barker [I always thought his last name made this kind of comical] might say;
remember folks, be sure and have your pet progs spayed or neutered.

[Rocco]

The Arab States do not want to solve the refugee problem. They want to keep it as an open sore, as an affront to the United Nations and as a weapon against Israel. Arab leaders don’t give a damn whether the refugees live or die.—Sir Alexander Galloway, former head of UNRWA in Jordan (April 1952)89

So, I voted for Reagan, and have never voted democrat again.

Reagan was the only GOP candidate my wife has voted for. Twice. The geniuses in the GOP had a chance to build on that but what did they do? Inflicted the Bush family on the country and started rolling back everything RR accomplished.

I've had it with their lesser of two evils crap. I'm not voting for another squish again. Period.

Meanwhile at CNBC:

Michael Cohen's congressional testimony last week included allegations that Trump committed a number of crimes. This adds fuel to a potential impeachment. Here's what you need to know. cnb.cx/2TpWRNy

[GUS]

Good point CAPN. The fockin GOP is self destructive. Reagan was not liked and was an outsider. Sound familiar.

As for the FULL COMMIE PARTY imploding.

NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. Too much POWER and CASH.
I pointed out before the MIDTERMS, that PELOOOOOZER et al were DONE. The MUZZTARD, BLACK, VICTIM, PROG, REALLY REALLY GROOVY NEW GREEN DEAL PEEPS, do not need PELOOOOZER nor SCHUMER to give them scraps and crumbs. Trust me, the rest will fall in line when the NEW Saddam of the LIBTARD PARTY emerges.

[Jim Eagle]

I agree with Iggy on Big Sur. A real coastal nothingburger. He is also right about the Mendocino area. One of my pleasures living in San Francisc was to take long drives north on CA-1 especially from Point Reyes up to Mendocino. Lot of little coves, and hidden beaches along the way.

[Jane]

I've noticed that a lot of life long democrats are now avoiding the news. They don't want to hear what is going on because they don't want to even think about switching parties. Easier this way.

[Narciso79]

Chuck Ross pointed out how this was nonsense on stilts, chapter eleventy.

[MissMarple2]

GUS,

They really thought they were sitting on top of the world. What is frightening is what mediocre minds they all have.

Clapper and Brennan look to me like major dimwits and not only that, they have zero personalities and look remarkably unhappy.

Looking forward to seeing them arrested, which I believe will happen after the Mueller report is released.

[Narciso79]

We did the mendocino drive south to pointe reyes (iggy had emailed me pointers on the area) with my girls and my parents with my dad occasionally asking "what state are we in?" and everyone pointing out the pacific to his right while exclaiming California every five minutes.

I am driving a minivan and red is front passenger side looking at some of those dropoffs. Much like the views of manhattan if you walk the brooklyn bridge from brooklyn, mendocino south has far more striking pacific view. Plus there are ten cars coming north for every southbound vehicle so it is less of a parade.

The elephant seals were out at pointe reyes and very loud and made my dad laugh. In bodega bay my mom wanted cherries so we followed a sign off PCH and accidentally came across many of the buildings, including the church, used in the movie The Birds.

I agree with Iggy and JIB wrt Big Sur.
Loved Port Reyes and Santa Cruz was lovely.
Also loved the Missions further south.
Dems will have a watered down vote today which I believe will not mention the anti-Semitic Muslim by name.

As you leave Mendocino county and enter Sonoma county on the way to Point Reyes, Highway One climbs some very high bluffs and the road is very narrow and twisty and often there isn't even a twig to slow you down if you did go off the road to meet the ocean far, far below.
Not my favorite stretch of coast. :/
We usually took a route that bypassed that stretch.

Obama's economy is booming:

Job creation broke the 45-year record in February with a net addition of 0.52 workers per firm (including those making no change in employment), up from 0.25 in December and 0.33 in January. The previous record was 0.51 reached in May 1998.

[Robin, eff 'em all]

Thank you Porch, Melinda, and Gus for your comments on NOLA.

My husband and I spent a lot of our pre-children years in Point Reyes and a little town called Inverness that had a great cafe called the Gray Whale. Not sure if it’s still there, but a fun stop. Just a beautiful area and one of geologic interests due to the tectonic plates meeting there and the peninsula having different soil, therefore vegetation from the rest of Marin.

He was getting my youngest settled as an exchange student and they travelled for two weeks first. He loved it as I knew he would. He's the science geek to my history interests and that is a geologically spectacular country.

Favorite thing was swimming with the dolphins in kaikoura where they put on wetsuits and were in a pod of hundreds of them. They also took a plane flight out to see the sperm whales. There is a deep pacific trench just off the coast there.

I suspect he and the diva will be corresponding quite a bit about the southern lights. This is someone who would call us at the beach so we would go see intl space staion and/or space shuttle going overhead and he seemed to turn on most of the neighbors into taking the kids out to watch iridium flares when they were particularly bright.

If you take CA-1 from Tamalpais Valley Junction off of 101, on a Sunday, you have to be careful because of all the Kamikaze bikers thinking they are running a race at Le Mans. But once you get to Stinson Beach you can relax.

When I decided to make my first Sunday drive to Mendocino, I asked native NOCAL folks what to take in. Everyone suggested, "see if you can find Bolinas". Which I did using my hand-held GPS. The reason for the suggestion is that the citizens of Bolinas tear down every sign the highway department puts up. Not as reclusive as they believe they are, a bunch of Ben & Jerry type artistes, writers, chefs, etc.

Unless Mueller looked into Hillary and the fusion/Steele dossier then Clapper and Brennan are safe for now.Evidently there are the elite and permitted to lie to congress and any other under oath situationyjey find themselves in.

One other thing about Mendocino, it is the backdrop for Cabot's Cove, Maine, the fictitious town in Murder She, Wrote with Angela Lansbury.

We love the north coast. Sonoma has incredible wines and Napa is right over the hill, but Highway 1 up the coast is pretty awesome. Last year we did the "Birds" tour of Bodega Bay and environs and then back to Sevastopol.

Mendocino is pretty hippy but fun. Ft Bragg and the old Russian fort are pretty nice as well.

As to Monterey, we have gone up for Pebble Beach a couple of times. A very good Thai restaurant in Pacific Grove.

Jim, Sunnyvale -

I thin the general is right. I watch quite a bit of the goings-on on Twitter, as well as following some of the Q threads, and I think that we are currently in a war.

How else to explain the outright hatred of Trump from Hollywood, when for years they loved him? We all know about the perfidy of the mainstream media.

The internet has become a new theater of operations, and that video is part of it.
I thought both the missile testing on that ship and the interview with the general were very interesting. Lots of food for thought.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

--Iggy, I get what you say, love the Mendocino coast and even more the Eureka area where I went to school for a time BUT do take a gander at Pfeiffer Beach once in your life.--

We meant to stop at Pfeiffer Beach several times but something always stopped us. We did poke around Point Lobos.

Speaking of the Eureka area I'm not sure our favorite spot wasn't Ferndale a few miles south of Eureka. The coast is nice but not as nice as south of Mendocino but the town and the people are miles ahead. All Victorian mansions built by the local dairy guys and still more full of loggers, cattle ranchers and dairymen than corn rowed, corn holed stoner progs.

Maybe if that delightfully dopey girl I was going to marry comes to her senses I'll take her to Pfeiffer Beach. :)

Btw there were intifada in 1920 (as soon as Arafat's uncle got charge) 1929, notably in Hebron and 1936-39, that was a nazi aided project.

Most of this article is trying to convince us that Biden is probably the best shot for the dems. However, I did glean one interesting bit from it:

"Gallup also noted that the unfavorable ratings of five other Democratic contenders — Sens.

I agree with you, but I also think that video was to ease the average guy into realizing it.

A lot of people aren't aware of how much the media is manipulated, let alone various places on the internet.

There are fake Trump supporters who pop up to pull Ann Coulter-type turnarounds, people who do research and post it, people who have started doing Periscope videos to encourage Trump supporters, etc.

That isn't counting foreign agents, people who post propaganda (altered photos, fake videos, etc.) and crazy people.

People need to be aware this is going on, even if you don't think you are a participant.

GOPe hated Reagan for being the outsider.

Reagan whipped inflation & cut taxes big time, and the economy blasted off and floated all boats.

GOPe hated Trump for being the outsider.

Trump cut regulation and taxes big time, and the economy blasted off and floated all boats.

We instinctively hate Dems (who are just being what Dems are), but remind me again why we don't hate the GOPe even more?

That's where I am.

I hope Trump is using the EO Override bill to "out" GOPe members who should be primaried and run out on a rail. Message being: "I can't, nobody can, fix what is wrong as long as Dems have power in DC.

I think we need to stipulate which books we are donating, by name.
Daddy more than once noted how they didn't have a book he wanted, and I have the same experience with mine not buying "conservative " books til I suggest a purchase.

I am NOT being facetious---we can likely access their card catalog to see what they need.
Yep!
http://www.anchoragelibrary.org/
So let the recommendations begin!

We can notify the library that we will be donating to the JOM Daddy fund in Memory of RF, to buy the books specified and send them a list. After a polite "inquiry" phone call to verify our donations are intended for that use, of course.

Porch, librarian to librarian communication make that more palatable?

This starts off like a joke, but it's not...

I was in a meeting yesterday with another MA native, a Chinese guy and an Indian guy. The Chinese guy asked the other MA guy why he has black stuff on his face, does he play football?

The Indian guy chimed in and helpfully explained that football players put black stuff under their eyes so nobody can see where they're looking. The ash guy explained what the ashes were all about and then I explained the real reason for using eye black.

Also, in the right hand corner of that page is a "matching donations section." On the off chance one of us is connected to one of those corporations, please check it as many of those companies will double or triple the donation.

Absolutely, anonamom--I did when I contributed. I noted that he often complained that he could not find conservative books there--I suggested Victor Davis Hanson or Thomas Sowell--you might add others to my request to them.

Establishing a restricted charitable account in his honor, at the library, upon request, should not be a problem. Will find out.
