Dream's End, you've got your panties in a knot again, building a wall of noise, all to avoid answering my very simple question. I can see why you don't want to address it.
After all, at the elite level, there are all kinds of people, with all kinds of opinions. If you can't name ONE who opposes zionism, well, that fact speaks for itself, and no amount of hot air can hide it.
BTW, it was Carl Cameron who ran that story about the "Israeli art student spy ring", not Brit Hume. You can check it out at the Fox website...uh, no you can't.
Two cheap tricks you use, that are getting very boring:
1) guilt by spurious association. What with zionism's history of warm alliances with brutal colonialists and murderous racists around the world, from the likes of Apartheid South Africa (including cooperation to develop a "gene-specific" bomb), to its current love affair with the fanatics of the "Christian" Right, that is a classic example of the pot calling the kettle black. I am VERY careful about which company I keep. And I am VERY open about my opinions and the factual, logical and moral basis for those opinions.
My beliefs are founded on a solid basis of respect for human rights, for international law, and an urgent desire to stop the murder of innocent people by war criminals who covet their victims' land and resources for their own, superior 'race'.
And:
2) barking "you're an anti-semite!", the worn-out fig leaf of the intellectually and morally bankrupt zionists.
I know this will come as a profound shock to you, but my world does not revolve around "the Jews". Injustice, real racism (or sexism), the kind that dehumanizes people, that makes them feel helpless while the powerful smash and grab even the little that they have, is what stokes my engine.
If, in your twisted mind, that makes me an anti-semite, that says a lot more about you than it does about me.
While you've been too busy weeping into your beer about the urgent problem of anti-semitism in our world today, your ears are deaf to the victims of actual, ongoing atrocities. You may be blind to the racism that your twisted priorities reveal; don't expect others to share your selective vision. Watch these two videos. This is what racism looks like. This is what zionism looks like, once you get past the apartheid wall. This is why I oppose zionism.
Israeli army embarrassed by video broadcast
Last Updated Tue Mar 19 19:52:12 2002 | CBC.ca
JERUSALEM - The Israeli army has expressed a note of contrition after a television station aired a videotape showing an army assault on a Palestinian home in which a mother of five children died.
When CBC News spoke with Ismail Hawarjeh at Bethlehem's hospital earlier this month, there was no way to verify the story he told about how his wife had died, until Israel's Channel 2 broadcast the tape last weekend. The Palestinian school administrator said his wife Huda had been killed in their home by an Israeli tank shell during the army's March 8 assault on the Aida refugee camp. The army wouldn't comment and foreign journalists weren't allowed inside the camp.
But Israeli media were allowed to ride along with the soldiers, and they went right into the Hawarjeh home. An Israeli camera recorded the army blowing off the door, and found Huda Hawarjeh bleeding on the floor.
The pictures conformed to Ismail Hawarjeh's story about his wife being hit by shrapnel in the front hallway of the house, and about the Israeli soldiers doing little to help her for an hour while she bled to death in front of her five children.
Finally, the soldiers allowed an ambulance to come to a nearby street, and soldiers helped Hawarjeh carry his wife to it. Doctors tried to revive her at the hospital but couldn't.
Huda Hawarjeh was one of seven people to die in the Bethlehem area that day.
The Israeli army allows the media such close access on the understanding it can embargo anything it doesn't want broadcast.
The tapes of the assault on the Hawarjeh home fell into that category. But Channel 2 broke the embargo anyway.
The army, government and many Israeli citizens didn't like what they saw.
Channel 2 showed Hawarjeh begging soldiers to allow an ambulance through. The camera captured the terror of the woman's daughter, and her brother's attempt to stop her from showing the soldiers her fear.
After the woman was finally taken out, one of the soldiers looked into the camera and said: "I don't know what we're doing here. Purification, maybe. It's dirty here. I don't know why a good Hebrew boy should be here, so far from his home."
The soldiers tore the home apart, evidently looking for weapons.
Another daughter begged them not to demolish the home's wall. Soldiers commonly smash walls to move into adjacent houses.
Israeli spokesman Ranaan Gissin said the government was disappointed by the decision to air the tapes. "I would have expected a little bit more self-censorship on the part of the Israeli media," he said.
Ma'ariv, Israel's second-biggest newspaper, ran the story on its front page on Monday, under a banner headline that read "Gaffe!"
The army, after trying to suppress distribution of the pictures, admitted the soldiers' actions pushed the boundaries of public acceptance.
"Our action is so difficult to be done that it is to the extremities of acceptance," said Olivier Rafowicz, an Israeli Defence Force spokesman.
He called what happened in the Hawarjeh home "a mistake."
Link to article and video
Despite the Palestinians' cries for help during 60 years of dispossession and ethnic cleansing, the so-called international community does not lift a finger to stop the war criminals, because its members are either complicit, or they are afraid of the powerful zionists. Zionist organizations, far from being the voice of the down-trodden, are exclusive, elite institutions whose leadership is selected from
billionaires' boardrooms, not refugee camps or ghettoes.
The zionist-dominated media has primed the ethnic cleansing pump for decades, in books, magazines, movies and tv shows, promoting hatred and fear of Arabs and Muslims. Over and over and over, almost without exception, Arabs and Muslims are portrayed as evil, as subhuman, as unworthy of life.
And you, who has not ONCE expressed any opposition to this fascism, this race-hatred in its ultimate expression as genocide, dare to accuse those who speak out against this appalling, ongoing crime, of anti-semitism?
Snap out of it: anti-Arab hatred is the real anti-semitism today:
Although we cannot be entirely sure if '24' is doing this on purpose or by accident, it is doing a superb job of indoctrinating Americans into fear and paranoia, with the government being the only thing that can save them.
Television itself is teaching Americans that torture and hate, in particular, ethnic hatred, such as racial profiling, are acceptable, and that most Muslims living in America are part of a vast sleeper cell conspiracy in the country only to destroy it. RNY
Torture As Entertainment
Under the guise of "entertainment" there's a political agenda which delights 15 million American viewers and millions more throughout the world, including thousands of American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan.
I'm referring to "24," the hit series on Fox whose entire premise is the ticking bomb scenario: Los Angeles is about to be nuked or otherwise mass-destroyed by Arabs.
Jack Bauer, the all-purpose agent who's worked in every counter-terrorism capacity imaginable, has 24 hours (spread over 24 episodes) to save the city.
Season after season he does so, busting every rule, law and moral in the book, usually by
torturing Arabs, murdering them with a hacksaw, belittling the "niceties" of law and civil liberties and repeating the juvenile mantra, "Whatever it takes."
Most expert interrogators and military analysts say torture doesn't work and is more likely to backfire -- as it has: America's credibility in the Arab world is at an all-time low.
The Iraq war, the torture and illegal detention scandals of Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo, the death of more than 100 prisoners in American detention in Iraq and Afghanistan, and President Bush condoning torture as "an alternative set of procedures" have disillusioned Arabs of American intentions.
The popularity of "24" isn't reassuring them.
On "24," torturing Arabs is the ultimate charm. It not only works. There's nothing like it. It's the patriotic thing to do. And it has no side-effects -- not on America's image, not on the torturers' psychology.

All you zionists out there, take a rest from the urgent breaking news coverage about the Nazi Holocaust, to see a rare, unique glimpse of what's happening in 2007. Notice that nobody was killed, nobody was maimed, no one's home was destroyed in this video. This is what a GOOD day looks like:
