Is the use of ‘pushy’ antisemitic?

Israel seems to work on trust in many ways. E.g. how exactly do they verify your Jewishness when you apply for citizenship there? It would seem to be something easy to fake, and yet Israel is pretty good at keeping itself Jewish.

The picture I remember was of about five men seen from behind looking across the river at the twin towers and rejoicing. They were said to be Israelis. They would obviously be happy because now the US would go to war against Arabs. I’ve read that Israelis had some inkling that an attack was imminent, and that US intelligence did also, “Their hair was on fire”, but that the administration ignored US intelligence. For example, of course, Bush thought it would be racist to profile Arabs. I have not read if US intelligence did or did not receive leads from the Israelis.

It seems that some Arabs in New York City did have prior knowledge of the attack and were looking forward to it.

Prior Knowledge of Sept. 11 Not Just Urban Legend
Posted Sept. 10, 2002
By Jeffrey Scott Shapiro

“What are you looking at?” asked the schoolteacher as she approached one of her freshman students. The boy, a young Palestinian, seemed captivated as he stared out the window across Brooklyn toward the lower downtown area of Manhattan.

“Do you see those two buildings?” he asked while pointing toward the World Trade Center. “They won’t be standing there next week.” It was noon, Sept. 6, 2001.

Antoinette DiLorenzo didn’t take her student’s comment all too seriously. Of course the twin towers would be there next week, she assured him. The student shook his head and reiterated his prediction until his 15-year old brother, a sophomore, elbowed him and told him to be quiet. “He’s just kidding,” the older boy said politely.

Five days later at 8:45 a.m., DiLorenzo heard a loud explosion from the north. Thunderstruck, she turned to the window and eventually watched both towers collapse into shattered glass and crumbled steel.

Many people believed this story was nothing more than an urban legend when they first heard it. Everyone has heard similar stories in the wake of such a disaster. Despite the almost unbelievable circumstances of the story, I was able to confirm it last October while working as a crime reporter for the Journal News, a New York-based Gannett newspaper. Catie Marshall, a spokeswoman for the New York City Board of Education, confirmed that school officials reported the incident to police and that the matter had since been taken over by the FBI Joint Terrorist Task Force (FBI-JTTF).

New Utrecht High School was closed Sept. 12, 2001, but as soon as it reopened the following morning, a shaken DiLorenzo quietly approached a New York City Police Department (NYPD) school-safety officer in the school’s first-floor lobby. Soon, a dozen investigators stormed the school, interrogating students and searching lockers.

After federal agents questioned DiLorenzo, police detectives questioned her fourth-period class to see if anyone else had heard the boy’s comments. Once the detectives were finished, the boy and his brother forcibly were taken to the 62nd Precinct headquarters, where two investigators with the FBI-JTTF questioned them for several hours. Their father, who was in Israel at the time of the attacks, was scheduled to fly home Sept. 11 on a commercial airliner, but he was delayed when all flights to the United States were grounded.

“But Gordon insisted that his clients were just five young men who had come to America for a vacation, ended up working for a moving company.”

Because who doesn’t eventually end up working for a Jersey moving company when they’re on vacation? I still regale friends and family members with stories of the time I visited London and spent the entire three weeks working 14 hour a day shifts frying chicken at KFC Halal. Even more memorable was that trip to Thailand back in middle school, where I spent a week turning tricks for a local pimp, Prayut. He and I are still penpals, exchanging Christmas cards, Hanukkah presents, homemade porn, and updates on our latest T cell counts. Good times…

I could have sworn the so-called “dancing Israelis” were in Brooklyn?

Steve: “I doubt if this was terribly important incident.”

You might want to look into the incident a little bit more. The Dancing Israeli’s were giddy with delight right after the first tower was struck. Three of the 5 were members of the Mossad. They stated that they were there to document the events. The cameras were setup prior to the attacks. Also look into Dominick Suter and Urban Moving Systems.

Don’t forget the part about how these guys, and their Urban Moving Systems colleagues, were arrested in two white Urban Moving Systems vans, respectively containing traces of explosives, and packed with explosives. All public record. The footage, police transcript, police forensic record, MSM news record, their interrogation record under lie detector, all public record.

Overheard in Mossad headquarters:

“Oy vey! We put these guys on the payroll, and they do a sack dance on a van roof! We’re supposed to be the smart ones here, but our people just can’t help themselves sometimes. Even their country-western songs know the score: ‘you never count your money, when you’re sitting at the table.’”

Lmao! I’ve seen some funny comments on this site but yours takes the cake. You could write for Family Guy.

Is Josef Schuster, the president of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, yet one more secret reader of yours?

And by the way, Pollard’s sinecure didn’t last long…

For citizenship, it is not difficult. Certain names are Jewish and you have to present some proof of the fact that you are Jewish (your Bar Mitzvah certificate). The real check is marriage. The rabbis are very strict and will subject you to a trial, where witnesses and evidence are presented. All in all they manage it well – if limiting the numbers of Jews is the goal, which it seems to be. Conversion to Judaism is hard. They are not looking for converts.

Regardless, here are some future Syrian immigrants to the US celebrating 9/11.

I’ve always thought there was a Mossad link to 9/11, but I understand any skepticism when it comes to things like this. They have to be smart and sleuthy enough to do whatever they did undercover, but dumb and undisciplined enough that some of their agents get caught dancing and celebrating the attack? Doesn’t mesh. Oh well.

“For example, a friend applied for a job as a CIA analyst, but it took forever for the security checks so he took a job in private industry instead.”

Uh …. Steve…. you do realize that’s exactly what he would have told you if he had been hired by the CIA?

“There are a whole bunch of websites run by Jews that evaluate how Jewish various celebrities are. My impression is that gentiles have no clue how much mental energy Jews devote to such questions.”

Obsession with racial purity. Nurturing ancient grievances. A belief in thier own superiority.

Those traits remind me of another people I once heard about………..can’t remember who.

The Israeli technician who blew the whistle on Israel’s nuke program was Mordechai Vanunu. From his Wiki page:

Mordechai Vanunu (Hebrew: מרדכי ואנונו‎; born 14 October 1954), also known as John Crossman,[2][3] is an Israeli former nuclear technician and peace activist[4] who, citing his opposition to weapons of mass destruction, revealed details of Israel’s nuclear weapons program to the British press in 1986.[5][6] He was subsequently lured to Italy by a Mossad agent, where he was drugged and abducted by Israeli intelligence agents.[5] He was transported to Israel and ultimately convicted in a trial that was held behind closed doors.[5]
Vanunu spent 18 years in prison, including more than 11 in solitary confinement. Released from prison in 2004, he became subject to a broad array of restrictions on his speech and movement. Since then he has been arrested several times for violations of those restrictions, including giving various interviews to foreign journalists and attempting to leave Israel. He says he suffered “cruel and barbaric treatment” at the hands of Israeli authorities while imprisoned, and suggests that his treatment would have been different if he had not converted to Christianity from Judaism.[7]
In 2007, Vanunu was sentenced to six months in prison for violating terms of his parole. The sentence was considered unusual even by the prosecution who expected a suspended sentence. In response, Amnesty International issued a press release on 2 July 2007, stating that “The organisation considers Mordechai Vanunu to be a prisoner of conscience and calls for his immediate and unconditional release.”[8] In May 2010, Vanunu was arrested and sentenced to three months in jail on a charge that he met foreigners in violation of conditions of his 2004 release from jail.

My first reaction when I heard Trump’s account was that he was confusing what he thought he remembered with the fairly well documented story of the “dancing” Israelis in New Jersey celebrating the collapse of the Twin Towers. I notice that neither Trump nor the MSM outlets trying to debunk Trump (NBC Nightly News had a lead piece last night) mentioned the incident involving the Israeli “movers.” Who doesn’t carry $4700 in cash hidden in his sock? You never know when you are going to run into a bargain and don’t want to use your credit card. I have been doing it for years. I admit it’s kind of hard when you live in Florida and generally don’t wear socks.

You write there were “numerous reports” of Midwesterners celebrating on 9/11. I know about the Israelis in the van– and Carl Cameron’s Fox News reports on them, etc. But others? Sad to say, it’s important. Trump can get away with saying a lot of politically incorrect stuff, but he can’t just make stuff up, it’s really not presidential.

I meant Mideasterners–it’s your silly spellcheck.

The Dancing Israelis appear in the 2005 documentary The Protocols of Zion. The Jewish filmmaker investigates the story expecting to find another antijewish canard like he does in all the other parts of the film, but he discovers the guys to have been actual Israeli intelligence assets. They appeared on an Israeli talk show after their release and the filmmaker includes a clip of this in the documentary.

Well worth watching.

What in the world kind of info could you steal by barging around the hallways of a consumer packaged goods research firm with the office manager trying to throw you out

Running a moving company, on the other hand…

As far as I can tell, U.S. intelligence is fairly hamstrung by fear of leaks and traitors. For example, a friend applied for a job as a CIA analyst, but it took forever for the security checks so he took a job in private industry instead.

I once considered working for FBI or CIA. I got application packages from each. I had familial connection to CIA, but no relationship to FBI. The FBI package was at least 50 pages and required exhaustive detail including all schools attended and dates of attendance along with grades (do you have your third grade report cards?). They demanded all family connections to second cousin along with detail like date of birth and photos. It was, putting it mildly, incredibly over the top. The CIA application was a bit different. Again, I had some family connection including covert operatives one of whom lost his life in Turkey and another in Laos. But the CIA application package was two pages. I’ve had far more intrusive applications for corporate weenie jobs. Name, date of birth, SSN, address, college, and employment – that’s all they wanted. What I took from this was that FBI is occupied by paper pushers, bureaucrats, lawyers, and accountants, demanding every i be dotted and every t crossed to cover their own asses. The CIA, on the other hand, is far more cowboy in orientation and looking more for specific attributes it can exploit in labor talent. It’s easy to understand how the two organizations can spectacularly fail to work together.

I vividly remember footage on CNN of Palestinians in the West Bank celebrating 9/11 right after it happened, which is probably what Trump has in his mind’s eye when he says he saw “thousands and thousands” of Muslims cheering it (though 20 or so in a crowded film frame is what I remember). I don’t think I ever heard of the Jersey City incident, but there are 2001 news reports of police investigating a Muslim celebration that didn’t bear fruit which Trump, living nearby, probably read about. Since the reports are very similar and happened at the same time it’s likely Trump’s memory is conflating two separate but similar news stories.

Speaking of Jewish names, I always thought Alfred Rosenberg was pretty ironic.

O/T I can’t remember if I’ve posted this here or not but I’ve made a prediction that Hillary will choose a hispanic man for VP. Another woman steals her thunder, a white man isn’t “progress”, an asian man too irrelevant, a well-spoken black man in very short supply. A Hispanic male VP charges up her side of the immigration vote. I’m sure there are a couple possible choices in the Dem. party somewhere.

As for the republicans, if its Trump he’s completely unpredictable. If its an establishment candidate, it looks like they cut a deal with Kasich to get the VP role in exchange for leading the attack against Trump.

As far as I can tell, U.S. intelligence is fairly hamstrung by fear of leaks and traitors. For example, a friend applied for a job as a CIA analyst, but it took forever for the security checks

Both the FBI and the CIA put potential hires through a battery of lie detector tests in which they are asked whether or not they’ve committed the most mundane of “illegal” acts, such as downloading music for free or parking in a handicap spot. If you admit it, you don’t get hired. If you say you didn’t, but the machine says you did, you don’t get hired. Obviously, no young man in America is as squeaky clean as their standards demand; the result is that the spooks and G-men simply hire the best liars.

Those “dancing Israelis” allegedly went on Israeli television to recount their tale and said that they were there “to document the event”. This TV bit starts at around 6:10 in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rStJ5BgadPs

“For example, I can vaguely recall decades ago the marketing research firm I worked for being subjected to intrusive “Israeli art students.” Were they selling bad paintings? Were they trying to spy on us? Both?”

Did they ever sell a single painting? Based on that Salon article, it pretty clearly was a spy-ring. And the notion that dozens of Israelis passing themselves off as students would be engaged in spying without it being an actual operation of the Israeli government is ridiculous. But some official fromt he Israeli government assured us that “Israel does not spy on the United States”.

It seems odd that they seemed to be targeting the DEA so much…..why?

I’ve always thought that they were drug dealers. Might a moving company not be a nicely convenient cover for drug dealing?

Israelis have a well deserved rep for unmitigated shamelessness, but doing something like this, blabbing so openly to their arresting officers? Couldn’t the Mossad do a bit better than this?

But Sailer is correct.

Next.

Fox News briefly did a piece on the Israeli spying

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article7545.htm

It very quickly found its was down the memory tube.

I too met some Israeli “art students,” just before 9/11 in fact. Young, tan-colored guys, typical Israeli type young men. I have sometimes wondered if they were among those guys with the van. The region of the country is right, and the timing is right.

They were brought into the US by a charitable Jewish organization, which will remain nameless. I will not say how I met them, but I can’t help but share something that still makes me laugh:

Having taken some art history in college, and having a long appreciation for the painting of certain periods, I of course worked the subject into a conversation with one of the “students.” I described some of my favorite art, and I asked him things like, “who are your favorite painters,” and “what period or type of art are you interested in.” It was like talking to a dairy cow. (So much for the vaunted Jewish IQ.) This guy clearly knew nothing about art and had no interest in it. He couldn’t even fake it, and he basically sucked at conversation.

One would think Mossad would have prepared their spies for this situation, but they didn’t.

I forgot about those guys until the story came out in the weeks after 9/11.

Speaking of non-Jewish names, I always thought Kirk Douglas was pretty ironic.

I admit, the “Dancing Israelis” did come to mind when Trump went off on his latest rant. Perhaps he’s trying to send some kind of coded signal to the Deep Staters, basically saying “I KNOW, so you better think twice on how far you want to push me.”

But more likely, he was probably thinking of the footage of Palistinians dancing in the streets over in Israel. I clearly remember all of the networks showing that footage. It’s easy to see how memories could become jumbled on that day. If I were him, I’d at least backtrack on the “thousands and thousands” part. I know he doesn’t like to admit he’s wrong, but I don’t think even his most hardcore supporters will think less of him for it.

The idea that these guys were up to anything in particular is absurd.

They were filming the WTC as it burned…like everyone else with a camera in a two mile radius. On tv later one of them said in bad English that he was “documenting” the event and the loonies took that to mean that he had been sent there to do it.

Why would the Mossad need to have the most spectacular event in American history specially “documented?”

NYC is filled with illegal immigrants who say they are tourists and are doing some work in the meantime. Not unusual.

Movers are often paid in cash. $4700 among 4 people may sound like a lot of money to some fevered conspiracy theorist but if that was all their money it’s really not that much.

Alas for paper storage and microfiche, when you could go over the entire paper, down to the classifieds. Go electronic, and that article may be in the oubliette.

There are various 9/11 stories about suspicious trucks, some of them involving Israelis. Here is one such story.

9-11 Cop Breaks Silence – Israeli Mossad Involvement in Attacks

By Dave Gahary –
September 23, 2011

…. Sgt. Scott DeCarlo has never spoken to the media about the details of that day except for two 30-second cameo appearances in Internet videos from undetermined sources. In fact, DeCarlo confirmed that this is the first, and last, interview he will ever grant in regard to this subject. …

Although not scheduled to work that day [9/11], DeCarlo reported anyway and “was posted on the highway” to prevent traffic from entering New York City.

“There was a BOLO, which is a ‘Be On the Look Out’ for a particular van, perhaps loaded with explosives,” explained DeCarlo, “that may have been on its way to destroy the George Washington Bridge.”

DeCarlo explained: “It [the suspicious van] happened to come our way, and I grabbed my sergeant … and said: ‘Hey, man, that’s our van.’ It wasn’t the exact license plate given reported — it was off by one numeral — but I said: ‘That’s gotta be it; it’s just too close.’”

He continued: “The van was coming off the [N.J.] Turnpike trying to get on Route 3. Traffic was rolling at two miles an hour, so we got in front of the van on foot, weapons drawn, and stopped it.”

All five of the Israeli spies refused to exit their vehicle, so DeCarlo was forced to get physical.

“We asked them to get out of the van, but they didn’t listen,” he said. “So, we . . . put them in handcuffs and did it as quickly as possible.” ….

DeCarlo then described what happened after the spies were dragged from their van. “When we removed them, one of the guys that was rather chatty said: ‘We’re not your enemy, we’re your friend. Our enemies are your enemies,’” DeCarlo said. “At that point they said they were from Israel. They kept saying, ‘Hey, we’re on your side.’”

“We brought them over to the New Jersey State Police holding cells in the Meadowlands Stadium, and that’s the last I saw of them,” he said. ….

I’m not sure I get it.

Maybe the government needs to pass a kind of Dawes Act to help resolve the conflicting quantum blood/lineal descent debate between Reform and more conservative sects, and tie congressional funding for Israel the way the BIA hands out props to reservations.

Trump should choose Tulsi Gabbard, would send a lot of good and confusing signals.

Yes, I remember the story about the van, and I also remember that Netanyahu was interviewed on 9/11 and said something that at the time I thought was fairly odd (something about how the attacks were good for Israel, which I thought was completely inappropriate under the circumstances.)

A contextual fact that shouldn’t be underestimated: 9/11 took place three months after the Dolphinarium suicide bombing (1 June 01) that killed a score of Israelis. (There!) I remember the attack brought me up short because I wasn’t familiar with suicide bombing which became much more common later.

However, the point is that 9/11 did facilitate American empathy and support for Israel (including the invasion of Iraq which was partly justified by the notion of WMD’s used against Israel, as well as reward payments to the families of suicide bombers.)

Having said that I don’t want to pursue 9/11 conspiracies. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to argue that the US had some foreknowledge of “an” attack, rather much like possible US foreknowledge of an attack before December 7, 1941, but that is not the same as being actively involved in it.

Even so, both Israel and the advocates of a US “security state” “benefited” from 9/11, and that’s why these theories are out there.

A disgruntled MOSSAD officer wrote an expose´ (“By Way of Deception”) that detailed how MOSSAD is small and poor, but punches above its weight by employing Jews to spy in their local countries and use their businesses to pay for it all. Sort of like how Pollard suddenly got employed on Wall Street or something. The actual professional case officers are very few in number, but who needs them when high-status Jews throughout the world will hook you up with either information or influence.

I am reminded of the fictional treatment of the sayanim, the Mossad’s broad network of Jewish fellow travelers, in Tim Power’s book Three Days to Never. Their devotion to the cause is often quite shallow, but the things asked are often quite trivial, so it evens out.

That is fiction, but the feel of it matches up with things I’ve read about Cold War era spying, for example American Spies: Espionage against the United States from the Cold War to the Present by Michael J. Sulick. If the request is small enough, people’s consciences don’t seem bothered much.

Jerusalem Post (11/22/15) Reality Check: A tale of two traitors

That’s a terrible article. The basic premise is that a lot of 10-12 year old Arabs know precise details about terror attacks, but no one else does.

It’s not as though they were instant messaging Osama. There has to be a chain of how the knowledge is disseminated from Thrush Central (here, OBL) all the way down to these boys, and how no one else in that chain of dissemination leaked the information, or was arrested, charged, and convicted.

The icing on the cake comes at the end of the article when the paranoid author recounts a story of an Arab boy who told people not to fly on November 12: of course, the date the flight AA 587 to the Dominican Republic crashed in Queens. Author says: “authorities say it was an accident. I’m not so sure.” Hey, I had to put air in one of my tires this morning. I thought it was routine maintenance, but now, I’m not so sure …..

The treatment seems pretty fair for a traitor. Indeed it is more moderate than what the US has done to Pollard; I probably would have shot them both.

Perhaps not thousands but I think there were some celebrating.

Oh…him.

If he had been hired as a CIA analyst he would have said “I’ve been hired by the government in Virginia,” not “I’m moving to New Mexico.”

Or they can get your info for themselves, than you very much.

If you broke the law, just tell the truth.

Graham Greene wonderfully captured the haphazard world of spycraft in Our Man in Havana, in which a lowly vacuum cleaner salesman gets recruited to spy for the Brits in Cuba. Things go haywire in a most comical fashion. Well worth reading, and the movie (with Ernie Kovacs) is decent, too.

That’s what I remember seeing. Thanks for jogging my memory. It was a very well done piece, as I recall.

I once knew a U. Chicago mba student who described another jew thusly: “he’ll do well in life, he’s pushy, obnoxious.”

I once considered working for FBI or CIA. I got application packages from each. I had familial connection to CIA, but no relationship to FBI. The FBI package was at least 50 pages and required exhaustive detail including all schools attended and dates of attendance along with grades (do you have your third grade report cards?). They demanded all family connections to second cousin along with detail like date of birth and photos. It was, putting it mildly, incredibly over the top.

Ever watched The Americans? That’s why it was so “over the top”; they wanted to make sure you were born and raised here, and not living a cover story.

Just guessing, but, the CIA, on the other hand, probably just had a different process; if they decided to hire you (probably a lot less likely than the FBI hiring you), they would then put you through the wringer.

A disgruntled MOSSAD officer wrote an expose´ (“By Way of Deception”) that detailed how MOSSAD is small and poor, but punches above its weight by employing Jews to spy in their local countries and use their businesses to pay for it all. Sort of like how Pollard suddenly got employed on Wall Street or something. The actual professional case officers are very few in number, but who needs them when high-status Jews throughout the world will hook you up with either information or influence.

IIRC, the word for these Jews is “sayanim.”

I do remember reading about a teenage Palestinian boy in Paterson saying, “Now they know how we feel.”

That’s funny, because I was glued to the TV that day, almost mesmerized by what was going on, and know that video was played and replayed over and over — except one, which was of an Israeli saying exactly what you attribute above to some Palestinian teenager. That, I think, was the only video I didn’t see a hundred times that day (being hyperbolic here, obviously, with the “hundred” times, but straight-up about it). I’ve been unable to find that footage anywhere since, but I most definitely saw it. Once. On 9-11, during regular news broadcasts, on some channel such as CNN or FOX or whatever it was.

The recruiting is pretty simple. An Israeli agent goes on tour of the USA speaking at synagogues around the country on some innocuous subject.

The rabbi who coordinates each whistlestop identifies likely helpers in the congregation who would be amenable to helping out.

When the agent arrives in town, he speaks to each potential recruit privately and feels them out to see if they are willing to help. Perhaps they could provide a cover job for an Israeli agent. Maybe supply the Mossad with letterhead or business cards to provide cover. Or agree to be a mail drop, receiving mail and setting it aside for someone to pick up later.

Not every Jew will agree to help, of course. But the nice thing–the thing that makes such low-key recruiting quite safe–is that no Jew would ever rat out a fellow Jew, even if he turns down the request and declines to assist the Mossad.

This safety is enhanced by Jewish religious law. Being a “moser” (one who rats out a fellow Jew to gentiles) is a death penalty offense.

Google “mosrim death penalty”.

The same ethnic/racial solidarity also works for Muslim jihadis. This is why even “moderate” Muslims are an existential threat to the West. They can be counted on to look the other way and say nothing, particularly in Muslim ghettos like Molenbeek and Malmo.

Mao got it right with his dictum about revolutionaries swimming through the local population like fish in the sea.

In a clear bit of white supremacist propaganda today, Jeff Bezos landed a rocket on its retractable landing gear after a sub-orbital launch mission. In the video, there was not even one Diversity. Obviously this is impossible – success without Diversities just cannot happen – and thus proves Bezos a racist.

I live in Bergen County, New Jersey. Today the county’s newspaper, The Record, published an interesting article about the accusations that local Moslems celebrated the 9/11 attacks.

Most of the accusations were about Moslems in Jersey City, which is in Hudson County, and Paterson, which is in Passaic County. Since Bergen County is between those two counties, The Record actively investigated the accusations.

On that day, 9/11, there indeed was a “deluge” of accusations from local people who said they personally saw such celebrations. Many such accusations were reported and discussed on local talk-radio stations. So, accusations about celebrating Moslems were exceptionally intense in this geographic area.

Law enforcement officials, civil rights advocates and news reporters who were working in the immediate aftermath of the attacks said Monday that they were deluged with calls and emails from people who claimed to have witnessed celebrations in Jersey City and Paterson, but that they had found no persuasive evidence to back up any of those accounts.

…. the rumors were started when people called in reported sightings of Muslims celebrating in New Jersey to a New York City talk radio station. ….

The Record … reported on Sept 13, 2001, that rumors of Muslim celebrations were unfounded but that the story had been difficult to dispel, “moving briskly through e-mails, telephone conversations, and at least one radio show.”

John Chadwick, a former Record reporter, said he went to Paterson at least three times on that Sept. 12 to check out dozens of tips that Muslims were celebrating, only to find the streets vacated and most of the stores closed.

“I’ve never experienced such a disconnect,” Chadwick said. “Not only was there no celebration, there was like nobody around. The shops seemed to be closed. There was nobody on the streets. I sensed that people were just scared.”

For days afterward, Chadwick said, he continued to receive emails from readers who said they had seen televised reports of celebrations and wanted to know why the paper was not covering it.

“I would try to respond, ‘ If you saw this, let us know what channel was it? What was the news source?” Chadwick said. “Nobody ever came forward.” …

[Jerry] Spagnola, the former Paterson police chief, traced the origin of the story to television news reports shortly after the attacks that showed images of people protesting in the Middle East then flashed to pictures of empty streets in Paterson, where announcers explained, there is a large Muslim population. ….

Russian entry into Turkish airspace lasted ‘seconds’: U.S. official

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The United States believes Russia’s incursion into Turkish airspace on Tuesday likely lasted only a matter of seconds before Turkey shot down a Russian warplane, a U.S. official said, saying the assessment was based on preliminary indications.

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the United States was still investigating the incident.

Damage control? Seems like US unofficially admitting within hours that the Turks were itching to shoot down a Russian plane.

There was a real case of a nice kid from the NYC area who grew up to be a famous (in the Muslim world) propagandist: Margaret Marcus, a Jewish woman. Someone wrote a book about her, “The Convert,” which wasn’t too good. She was kind of an interesting character. Most of her kids ended up emigrating to the US and operating gas stations and stuff.

OT, the front page of the NYT has the shooting of 5 people at a Black Lives Matter rally. No word on the 16 shot at the hippity hop party in New Orleans.

I wouldn’t put any VP choice past him. I wonder if Gabbard is down for the immigration cause though.

Shouldn’t this be subject to a ‘disparate impact’ challenge? If you moved to America as a young child from the chaotic Third World then it might be hard to prove family connections or school grades.

“The internet is forever” is only true about things that don’t matter.

Uh Oh!…Part LXII!

Be careful what you axe for.

There were lots of people recording everything to VHS (or whatever) that day, so anything that was broadcast surely still exists.

You are correct about this. Some Jews also don’t grasp how much other Jews devote to this. After 40 years of marriage, my father’s side of the family is still flabbergasted at how much energy my mother’s side of the family spends on this.

Yes, Trump is good at this.

Most conspicuously, he says “Border Walls work… ask Israel how well they work.”

Some doubt his sincerity, and I get that, but I believe Trump is an alt-righter with the right touch of conspiracy theory who would find himself right at home in these corners of the internet.

I know they say he’s “not politically correct”, but I think he knows when to be politically correct, while still tracing the edges of this stuff so that it makes all of us think “he knows!”.

Okay, I’ll ask — did you ever take a Spanish class at Glendale College … ? If so, do you remember a fellow student named Dan Harmon?

In the year 2000, my home in San Jose was visited by two very attractive young ladies who characterized themselves as “Israeli art students,” and claimed to be selling paintings door-to-door. At the time, I was living with my father (due to the fact I’d recently spent a year in the county jail, as a result of my 20something involvement in some embarrassingly imbecile shenanigans, pertaining to a right-wing extremist organization that was very active during the 1990s), and my father was the chief-of-maintenance for a large industrial facility in Silicon Valley (one that most definitely had potential national security-related implications; they weren’t designing social media apps, LOL). Anyhoo, over the course of the next two weeks, both my father and I kept running into these same “Israeli art students” all over town, in San Jose, in Sunnyvale, in Palo Alto…seemingly wherever we went. I was told I was “paranoid,” for believing they were following us, but realistically, I don’t see any other possibility. They tried to get into the facility where my father worked, at one point, but were denied access.

It is revealing the parts you attempt to explain and the other aspects you choose not to address.

As absurd as it sounds to an American, this is exactly what my Israeli cousin did, though “vacation” might be a misleading word. It is very common for young Israelis to take a few years after their army service and putter around the world, working as necessary. And there are lots of Israeli moving companies in the US, for whatever reason. So when my cousin needed work after a month or two doing nothing, he reached out to a childhood friend of his who, sure enough, ran a moving company in the US.

I really don’t see the relevance of this unless the shooters were members of the Woodrow Wilson Brigade or the Stanford White Power Legion (that would be SWPL, for short).

On the other hand, it would be relatively simple to cherry pick stories about black assailants assaulting whites, amirite?

Who said they do a good job? Obviously I don’t know the exact numbers here, but for example a significant amount of non-Jewish Soviets emigrated to Israel in the 80s and 90s.

Perhaps the media that is so interested in Donald Trump’s description of 9/11 Muslim celebrations in the tri-state area might like to follow up on these verified facts-
http://www.prisonplanet.com/prior_knowledge_of_sept_11_not_…
“What are you looking at?” asked the schoolteacher as she approached one of her freshman students. The boy, a young Palestinian, seemed captivated as he stared out the window across Brooklyn toward the lower downtown area of Manhattan.
“Do you see those two buildings?” he asked while pointing toward the World Trade Center. “They won’t be standing there next week.” It was noon, Sept. 6, 2001″.

Israel does not pick intelligence agents at random, nor do they “trust” any Jewish Israeli or foreign Jew. They pick intelligence agents from the pool of army recruits. They have the full intelligence and physical and pyschological profile of every 18 year old Israeli. And from that pool, they do not pick idiots. The same pool provides the persons they use to screen at airports. To survive in Israel’s neighborhood, you need a good intelligence agency, not one staffed by illegals working at a US moving company.

Instapundit here references the Washington Post Sept 18, 2001 referring to tailgate viewing parties in Jersey watching and celebrating the Twin Towers collapse. Referencing Muslims.

Muslims around the nation celebrated and danced in the streets, which was reported, just barely, at the time.

Trump was/is correct.
—————————–
As for intelligence, the US has been very, very bad as has British intelligence in human sources, but very, very, VERY good in technical intelligence. We and the British were reading in near real time in WWII German and Japanese codes down to battlefield movements. We had an enourmous lead in satellite spying which combined with the U2 and SR72 gave us good ideas of the general abilities and intentions of the Soviets (a key reason we did not launch a nuclear attack in the dark). We tapped undersea cables the Soviets thought were impossible to tap.

Recently the US/Israeli intelligence effort to hamper Iran’s nuclear program was entirely technical. Stuxnet was very successful.

Human sources are generally over-rated. They are too subject to bias and tale-telling (Ahmed Chalabi), turning and doubling, and often merely duplicate the tremendous amount of open source information that can be collated and analyzed.

I would be EXTREMELY dubious of “Israeli” citizens — since a non trivial portion are Arab Muslims. There is also a thriving Israeli organized crime movement.

The CEO of say, Teva, who was refused an Avis Rental Car by a couple of Black female service reps because he was Israeli, is highly unlikely to be either a spy or a criminal. The real threat as always comes from insiders, Robert Hanssen, Aldric Ames, Jonathon Pollard, the Walker family. And its usually related to sex or money or both.

“Kirk Douglas” was, effectively, a stage name. He was born Issur Danielovitch.

I recall seeing a youtube clip of a western news channel misrepresenting Palestinian celebration as American muslim celebration. That could be what people say they saw on TV.

“I can’t remember if I’ve posted this here or not but I’ve made a prediction that Hillary will choose a hispanic man for VP. Another woman steals her thunder, a white man isn’t “progress”, an asian man too irrelevant, a well-spoken black man in very short supply. A Hispanic male VP charges up her side of the immigration vote. I’m sure there are a couple possible choices in the Dem. party somewhere.”

Hillary has all but stated her intent to nominate HUD Secretary Julian* Castro as her Veep. Steve’s talked about it, actually.

*Pronounced “whoolian,” for all you micro-aggressing sh*tlords who had the temerity to suppose he pronounced it like the old Roman Emperor

Re foreknowledge of the 9/11 attack. Well, yes, just as the French had a pretty good idea that something was coming in Paris before that most recent attack, and also before Charlie Hebdo. There was unusual jihadi behavior and chatter, and intelligence chiefs were nervous.

Nothing was done because of PC. Anyone advocating action was tarred with Islamaphobia, and racism, so everyone just sat around. The action to be done was extremely tight border controls, interviews, massive mobilization of the police and security forces. Nothing like that could be done or would be done until after.

Now, we either have a secret war like that against the OAS during De Gaulle’s term, or simply deport lots of Muslims. I suspect neither will happen in the West, instead ever increasing Jihadi attacks because the killing is the point, of domination and control. Until things just snap.

Reasonable reform measures that produce safety and security while not being horrible and vicious are impossible because of the dependency of the elite of bashing Bad Whites for social signaling and social unity; along with Muslim votes in Europe and Black votes in the US.

I really don’t see the relevance of this unless the shooters were members of the Woodrow Wilson Brigade or the Stanford White Power Legion (that would be SWPL, for short).

On the other hand, it would be relatively simple to cherry pick stories about black assailants assaulting whites, amirite?

Man’s just fighting with whatever weapon is at hand. Not his fault whites don’t give him much.

In a clear bit of white supremacist propaganda today, Jeff Bezos landed a rocket on its retractable landing gear after a sub-orbital launch mission.

You might want to inform certain supergenius bloggers of this event. They are under the impression that nobody in America can launch a rocket anymore.

Oh, BTW, we are still receiving cool data from the Pluto flyby that was accomplished recently by an American spacecraft launced on an American rocket.

I know. This just doesn’t fit here.

Now back to your regular programming…”Somebody’s up to something! And we have no control over it!…”

http://www.antiwar.com/justin/j030802.html

American kids have been launching rockets, on their own, for generations, by now, haven’t they? Can any of them, say, take astronauts to and from the International Space Station, these days? Can Jeff Bezos’ boys perform that service, now? By the way, just to refresh our collective memory, what was the actual launch date of that Pluto fly-by, Buzz?

Take that! Obama: Climate summit a ‘powerful rebuke’ to terrorists

President Obama declared Tuesday that next week’s climate change summit in Paris would be a “powerful rebuke” to terrorists

What a maroon.

Don’t confuse professional intelligence agents, who in Israel’s case are very well vetted and trained, with the thousands of various contacts and assets they utilize. A German just got convicted for having been retained by the CIA; he worked as a mail handler for the German intelligence agency. The German was the asset, the actual “agents” worked in another country.

I would think Israel’s laxity regarding that post-Soviet wave was intentional. Israel’s leaders likely saw it as a demographic bulwark against Arabs as well as against Mizrahi Jews.

They’re called ‘sayanim’, its well known among some circles that what really makes the MOSSAD so powerful is wealthy and influential jews in countries like US, UK, France and Russia gaving premium information for the israelis.

Jacob Cohen, a French-jew who became anti-Zionist admitted in a book that the MOSSAD recruits sayanim inside the French Freemasonry (the Judeo-Masonic conspiracy is quite plausible when you look into it), its likely that high-level Masonic lodges are used by the MOSSAD to recruit powerful jews and gentiles (known às Shabbo Goyim).

Vanunu’s certainly wasn’t Pollard level of treason.

No one was at all confused that the Israelis had nuclear weapons. They didn’t sign the NPT for a reason. One expects US\Soviet intelligence had at least ballpark estimates of where they were at. What Vanunu provided was some public confirmation of scale.

My two-bit analysis: I don’t think he harmed Israel at all. Leftists painted nuclear deterrence as “terror”, but i slept like a baby my whole youth. Wasn’t waking in a cold sweat thinking the Russkis were going to nuke me, because they knew with certainty what would happen to them if they did. Arab hostiles now know with certainty what fate awaits them–their cities, muslim holy sites … gone–if they really try to push Israel into the sea. (And they haven’t tried to do so since.) Yet, Israel can continue to parrot whatever their bogus line is “won’t be the first to introduce” to the US.

But that said, plain fact is, Israel elects a government and its their job–not Vanunu’s–to decide to release what information about their nuclear program at what time for maximum benefit to their nation’s security. Ergo Vanunu’s a traitor. The Israelis would be well within normal respectable rules of fair play to take him out back and shoot him.

Pollard’s nothing but a traitor, selling off actual operational intelligence methods, info that hindered intelligence collection and harmed US security for cash money. He should have been drawn and quartered, boiling oil dribbled down his throat and his innards pulled out and burned. That someone is giving him a job on Wall Street suggests said someone is not an American.

Jonathan Pollard loses his job due to parole conditions

The standards for immigration are not so high – as long as you have one Jewish grandparent, you qualify. But the standards for marriage and children and those children being registered as Jewish are very high. That falls under the rabbis and they are strict. Many, if not most, of the non-Jewish soviets who arrived then have long ago left Israel by the way. And why would they stay in Israel which is under constant pressure and low level terror, when you can get to Europe, or Canada or even the US? Canada especially is favored because education is valued in their immigration system. Israel has been far more successful than Europe in keeping out unwanted populations. Israel has also been incredibly successful in having their Jewish immigrants become “Israelified”, to make up a word.

MW, yes, lots of (not American?) kids travel abroad on working vacations. Lots of food & bev kids around here are Irish or eastern Europeans, for example.

From having been on this site for 9 years…I would concur.

What with the downing of this Russian jet, and the Wikileaks revelation that Turkey is on the side of ISIS, what does the Sailer crystal ball say about the new Turkish PM?

The party has for a long time been supported by the Cemaat Movement of exiled Islamic cleric Fethullah Gülen, whose influence in the judiciary has helped to weaken the opposition against the AKP.[17]

Because I don’t understand any of it.

@Roger Rediger

No, the treatment that Vanunu received is harsher – read the link provided by Anonymous – 51. There is no doubt that Vanunu was a traitor, and the Israeli government had every right to punish him. But his offense, like Pollard’s, took place almost thirty years ago, and his freedom is still severely restricted – no different from Pollard. But here are the major differences – agree or disagree with him, Vanunu acted out of conviction – he never profited from his actions. Pollard was a hired spy, bought and paid for by the Israeli government. No doubt Pollard was sincerely motivated to help Israel, but he also got a ton of cash for what he did. Pollard also peddled his stolen information to other nations, including China, Pakistan and South Africa. Numerous high Israeli officials, including several prime ministers, have acknowledged that they were aware of Pollard’s activities. So much for our “special relationship.” It wasn’t until the US Congress threatened to cut off all aid to Israel that full Israeli cooperation was secured.

But that was then and this is now. I think both Pollard and Vanunu should be allowed to go where they want to go – Pollard to Israel and Vanunu to the US.

“Back in 1986, Vanunu, a junior technician at the Dimona nuclear reactor, gave Israel’s nuclear secrets to The Sunday Times, claiming he did so out of opposition to weapons of mass destruction.”

How is that “treason?” It is just “whistle-blowing”– much the same as Snowden’s, more recently. Except, of course, that Vanunu’s information merely confirmed what was already widely assumed, whereas much of what Snowden has revealed, thus far, has shocked both citizens, politicians and foreign leaders. “Treason” is defined as fighting for, or otherwise adhering to, an “enemy”– which does not include the “free press” in an allied nation!

So a billionaire scumbag can fly 100 km up and then land, which the X-15 could do sixty years ago, but unlike the X-15 he can’t choose where to go or where to land and can’t put anyone aboard. BFD.

>> how exactly do they verify your Jewishness when you apply for citizenship there?

the same sort of way that Ireland verifies that one of your four grandparents was Irish, before giving you your Irish passport.

I notice that Ireland just put some money into copying the “Birthright” program.

Didn’t Michelle Bachmann just get her Swiss dual-loyalty credentials?

Philippines process for granting dual-citizenship to its large diaspora,runs pretty much the same way.

In MANY of the world’s second-tier countries, if you REALLY want to gain citizenship, repeated applications of money and persistence, will get you there. Lawyers exist.

PrisonPlanet is not a decent source, because while it occassionally may have some worthy news , it is too often neck deep in unsutantiated conspiracy news.

The problem in believeing the story you quote is that there is no way the planners of 9-11 would have told or discussed their plans in a manner that some highschool kids could overhear and then babble about it.

Unless I can see some mainstream news sites report on the same claim , I’m chalking it up to propaghanda. The article reporting the kids were Palestinian also arouses my suspicion. None of the 9-11 Hijackers were Palestinian, so it wouldn’t be like their unlces or older brothers or dads were discussing it and these kids overheard it.

he can’t just make stuff up, it’s really not presidential

One would hope.

Don’t think the current occupant feels that way.

Even if the Israelis knew ahead of time, why would they send people in the field who knew ahead of time, and put them in a position to be arrested and questioned by the FBI?

Seth: “The idea that these guys were up to anything in particular is absurd.”

If it was absurd then they wouldn’t have been contained for 71 days and questioned about their activities on 09/11/2001 over and over again. They obviously had to arouse some sort of suspicion and stand out from other witnesses of the towers burning otherwise the police would not have been called. Urban Moving Systems/Company was apparently a front company for the Mossad. Three of the suspects were Mossad agents. This is very suspicious.

But why were they so giddy and happy?

From the FBI report: “…one of the males appeared to be taking still photographs and video of the other males with the WTC in the background. All of the males appeared to be jovial in that they smiled, hugged one another, and gave “high fives“.

“Film obtained from the 35mm camera of one of the detainees was later developed and processed by the Newark Division. The photos clearly corroborate [Blank’s] statements in that the Israelis are visibly happy on nearly all of the photgraphs.”

So, how’d the emperor pronounce it? I assume not all that close to the English pronunciation, but I really don’t know.

Even if the Israelis knew ahead of time, why would they send people in the field who knew ahead of time, and put them in a position to be arrested and questioned by the FBI?

The way I always heard it (i.e., the speculation), they were tracking Muslim terrorists in the US and knew there would or might be an attack, which would make your question kind of nonsensical; not as if they’d just disappear into thin air the moment they were forewarned.

I would think Israel’s laxity regarding that post-Soviet wave was intentional. Israel’s leaders likely saw it as a demographic bulwark against Arabs as well as against Mizrahi Jews.

Do these truly non-Jewish Russians actually stick in Israel? I’d think almost all of them who don’t identify as Jewish would have tried to get on the US. (There sure seem to be a heck of a lot of Russians–and other ex-Soviets–swarming around these days.) Israel seems like a nice place, but it’s a nice place for a particular people. If you don’t really identify as Jewish i don’t see why you’d stick there.

~~~

Not up on things Israeli, but my very rough take:
— they’ve gotten the Arab fertility down now to near replacement–and they can always decide (at high political cost) to toss Arabs out.
— their long term demographic future is most endangered by the Haredi who have incredibly high (African level) fertility but are absolute parasites, sucking up welfare and (legally) dodging military service; they used to be trivial but are now broaching 10% of the population and will rapidly expand–given their fertility–beyond that

I hate parasites–high, low and in-between. They are a cancer. They suck the life from nations and need to be rooted out, suppressed or tossed out. I don’t keep up with Israeli affairs–not my people–but i haven’t heard that normal secular\religious Israelis have devised any coherent plan to deal with this menace.

Thank you Whiskey. Am not usually on your ideological wavelength. This, (or instapundit’s) is an important factoid. My optimism is restored.

Something like “Guy-uz Yule-lee-uz Kae-sar”; but then technically he was never emperor 🙂

If US intel is hamstrung by fear of traitors, it is not hard to understand why. As a multiracial state, we have PC telling us to trust everyone but practical experience to tell that we can’t. For many, dual loyalties would be an improvement.

>> Who said they do a good job?

Ever since the 1750’s (first publication of a Hebrew-language mathematics school-text), nationalistic Zionism has been almost completely led by non-religious Jews.

It is easily possible to paint the picture that “Judaism” as a stand-alone, organized “religion”, didn’t really exist until after the Roman destruction of the Second Temple. Hebrew kings – up to & including Herod – never (to my memory of the bible) tried to dual-hat themselves as a High Priest. Actually, quite a few of them used tax monies to support pagan shrines. The municipality of Jerusalem still gives away free Christmas trees every year. In fact, it’s going to happen in a coupla weeks.

Even deep within the bowels of the Temple bureaucracy itself, the King always had total control of crowd-control and even liturgical arrangements. 1 Chronicles 25. Kinda like mosques nowadays in the Gulf states?

Any peep of protest from the U.S. or EU about the steady stream of rubber rafts carrying “Syrian refugees” from Turkey to Lesbos and thereby violating the territorial waters of Greece?

Yeah, you people sure can pick your victims, martyrs and heroes, Zippi:

If he had been anything but a low level clerk, which is what he was, he would already be dead or have been “brought back” to Israel for trial.

When I had a small office in an office park I used to get regular cold calls from “art salesmen.” Their schtick was to say that they had some art that had been ordered by someone else in the building but that they had since moved out. Rather than take the art back they said they’d cut a deal and give it to me for a rock bottom price.

They were just selling cheap knockoff Ansel Adams reproductions, obviously without paying any licensing fees. The story was about cancelled orders was just part of the sales pitch. There are plenty of similar scams, including door-to-door meat salesmen. One of the most famous is the “white box speaker” sales guys. They’ll cadge you in parking lots and tell you they were making a delivery on expensive stereo speakers, but the deal fell through. Rather than take them back they’ll sell you these top-flight speakers for a low, low price. The speakers are actually crap and the price is inflated, but the story helps make the sale.

If the “Israeli art students” were actually spies I’d expect them to conceal their foreign extraction. From an information gathering standpoint it’s a negative to volunteer that information, but probably a positive for making sales of overpriced art.

It’s not every day that you get immediate, swift, fact-check their asses from the NY Times.

listening to the radio station Jersey 101.5 today, Dennis and Judy , used their program to ask Jersey residents if they recalled seeing anyone celebrating on 9/11.

dozens of callers remembered seeing Muslims in Paterson and Jersey City rejoicing or celebrating that day…the hosts were somewhat surprised, as they acknowledged most of the callers appeared credible and the callers themselves did sound convincing. Dennis made it known he does not support Trump, but he seemed to believe many of the callers.

How is that “treason?” It is just “whistle-blowing”

Fair point. At some level i agree with you that the treason bar is not really met, it’s hard to see the harm to Israel. And i drew a clear distinct from what Pollard did which was selling out the US for Pollard’s private and ethnocentric interests.

I wouldn’t quite dignify Vanunu with “whistle blowing” though–at least not from a “citizen of Israel” perspective. Whistle blowing generally connotes that you’re exposing some useful info–generally about official malfeasance–to your citizenry that *needs* exposure and is being kept from the people. (They are dumping toxic waste; this drug doesn’t work; this multi-billion dollar fighter doesn’t perform very well; etc.) None of that is really true here. There’s no malfeasance. Israel has a nuclear weapons program. The citizenry know that and support it. Their elected officials are duly informed. The level of revelation of extent and technical sophistication is really a political\foreign policy question to be sorted out by their elected governments.

>> Israel seems like a nice place, but it’s a nice place for a particular people. If you don’t really identify as Jewish i don’t see why you’d stick there.

nonsense. Even muslims are embraced if they are loyal to the State: the Circassians. Doing very nicely, HEAVILY represented in upper ranks of the carabinieri (Border Police) and even, nowadays, seen in the Air Force technical academies. Not surprising, as their IQs are on the right-hand side of the curve….. they are actual caucasians.

Russians are often, conservative traditional whites. Not very many want to be ruled by a de Blasio. Places like England are even worse. Also, traditional Slavic culture is well appreciated in Israel. Google on “dancekessem”

I am not aware of ANY categorical yeridah of Russians ==qua== Russians from Israel. They are STRONGLY entrenched in Israel. Almost government websites have a click-for-Russian-language icon.

There was plenty of Israeli malfeasance– like their stealing American supplies of uranium from Pennsylvania!

Here, in full, is a comment, from another Web site, about an actual murder (and sexual-assault) victim:

“Amanda Blackburn was in the wrong place at the wrong time; she was in the confines of her own home 150 years after emancipation and 50 years after LBJ’s War on Poverty.”

They were filming the attack. The were apprehended for 40+ days and failed lie detector tests.

One of them inadvertently admitted on live Israeli TV they were there to ‘document the event’

There are a lot of things that were reported on at the time of the attack that were simply never followed up on. Here is Fox news footage from 2001, alleging that Israel knew what was going to happen.

Any way you slice it, Israel is rotten in it’s dealings with the US. There is no way they should be considered an ‘ally’ and the fact that they receive aid from the American taxpayer is an outrage.

Do you observe that all kinds of Jews attend to this? Or just the religious Jews?

I think it’s mostly the religious ones.

Hilarious

Shouldn’t this be subject to a ‘disparate impact’ challenge? If you moved to America as a young child from the chaotic Third World then it might be hard to prove family connections or school grades.

Great observation! In fact, this was back in the early 1990’s so predates the “disparate impact” era. I’d expect that today a letter from your Imam or village witch doctor in crayon or goat blood would suffice for an “above top secret” clearance and GS15 job.

I’m a bit disappointed that SpaceX did not beat them to it. Blue Origin’s stuff has been vaporware for some time and has engaged in some lame practices, like hiring SpaceX’s people on propulsion and such after they had developed innovative tech (though, apparently, according to the Musk biography, his companies have a high turnover because he’s hard to work with). The thing is that it was a bit of a lame attempt: the rocket reached space, not orbit, which requires much more energy and would have made the return much more difficult; the rocket is a lot smaller, because it’s not meant to be usable, but a tech platform, while SpaceX attempts to land rockets after they have launched a payload. The near misses of SpaceX were thrilling in themselves, like the rocket falling just as it should have landed, but I appreciate what they were trying to do a bit more. Having just read the Musk biography that Tyler Cowen of MR recommended, I am convinced that I would not want to ever know him, except to discuss Mars a bit. Definitely not work for him. But he’s the kind of person that gets things done, and SpaceX has accomplished more with less than Blue Origin. They stole the reusable rocket thunder in a cheap way, compared to how SpaceX was doing it. Yes, I’m a cheerleader. Still, at least things are finally moving. Maybe my children will have their flying cars and Mars bases.

9/11 was the second time that Muslims tried to bring down those towers. It was only a matter of time before they had another go.

And she was pregnant. Somebody suggested we should not just measure crime by bodycount, but by number of perpetrators too. It took three people to rape and kill that poor woman.

The man had a license to carry a concealed weapon and was a security guard. It’s easy to forget you’re wearing a pistol and accidentally go into restricted areas.

Truth, believe it or not, white people have rights to.

BLM is protesting–the death of a serial criminal and girlfriend beater–on public property. Despite some BLM flack talking about “people who did not belong there”, white anti-pro-thuggery protesters *also* have the right to be there and protest the protesters.

Unfortunately, most blacks (like a lot of leftists) can not fathom the concept of people being allow to disagree with them, so unsurprisingly BLM types try and chase these counter protesters off. And indeed apparently had them on the run.

Wasn’t there, but i’ll say, i’d rather shoot than let a black mob (even a mob of two or three) catch me. Blacks readily assault whites (and each other). Once down they’ll kick and stomp you. You’re lucky if you don’t end up with serious injury, or being a vegetable, or dead.

George Zimmerman would quite likely be a vegetable in some hospital if he hadn’t been packing when attacked by the thug Trayvon Martin, who was witnessed raining down blows “MMA sytle” and smacking Zimmerman’s head into the sidewalk.

Here, we had this kid Kris Kime at Mardi Gras about 15 years back, who went to the assistance of a girl some black thugs were assaulting and had knocked down. For his trouble, some black thug whacked him on the head, knocking him down where upon a bunch of black thugs started kicking the crap outta him … while Seattle police–obeying the PC orders of their leftist political bosses–just stood around the sidelines watching.

Whites who are going to be around blacks are smart to be armed. Especially if you’re in a “progressive” jurisdiction where PC is turning the police into useless timeservers while feral blacks run free. And if attacked they *should* fire. Hey, the state will no doubt try to railroad you–like they tried with Zimmerman. But better to end up in prison, then beaten and stomped dead like Kris Kime.

Truth, i know you have a different take on the capabilities and behavior of your people. And that’s fine.

The simple approach that works for your folks and my folks–separation. Your people run your affairs–have the level of policing and tolerate the level of violence that your people desire. And my people run our affairs and have the level of policing and intolerance for thuggery and violence that we find allows for civilized life. Win-win.

I think Trump was just exaggerating in his salesman way to excite the crowds rather than misremembering anything. His comment was that he saw thousands of Muslims cheering in New Jersey with his own eyes, which was to suggest that he personally witnessed it rather than just seeing it on the news. It’s probably not a huge presumption to think that there were Muslims in New Jersey and elsewhere in the US that applauded the 9/11 attacks, and he was probably just exaggerating this fact to make a popular political speech.

much of what Snowden has revealed, thus far, has shocked both citizens, politicians and foreign leaders.

Anyone “shocked” by Snowden’s stories was a terribly naive fool. We knew long before Snowden that NSA was building a shiny new $2 billion data center in Utah and that they already operated more DC space than google. We’ve known for a long time that uttering a certain sequence of words on your telephone will yield a knock on your door within hours. And we knew of Harris’ Stingray, Triggerfish, and Kingfish type devices since the advent of cell phones. Obviously the surveillance tech has kept up with the consumer tech. All Snowden did was confirm what we already “knew” (deduced).

Here is the BBC reporting the same story. Notice how they discard the reporting rule of not mentioning the race of the shooters.

Three white men wearing masks have shot five people protesting about the fatal police shooting of a black man in Minneapolis, say witnesses.

I had that happen to me once; a Semi truck pulled up into our subdividion and wanted to sell us some ‘high’ quality furniture that they were supposed to deliver but the buyer reneged and they couldn’t drive all the way back to some other State with it.

How can this type of sales be effective? Most people are really averse to door to door salesman and will decline. Seems like a waste of time and money to cold call on people.

There was plenty of Israeli malfeasance– like their stealing American supplies of uranium from Pennsylvania!

I’m speaking about Vanunu from the perspective of Israel–of which he was a citizen and pledged a secrecy oath when he took his job.

From the perspective of America, those responsible for the Apollo plant diversion–if there was a diversion; it’s still quite possible it was simply the most sloppily run, leakiest, uranium enrichment plant in the US–should have been brought to justice and executed.

This is true. As a partial Jew, I have always been fascinated with the question of Jewishness and am able to view it from different angles, as it were. I also have an extremely keen Jewdar and am able to spot Jews and mischlings quite accurately.
I have friends who are full Jews, however, who seem not at all interested in their Jewishness and completely downplay its significance, though they have many obviously Jewish traits (and typical liberal Jewish politics).

Steve’s gripping anecdote about his friend getting deprived of his shot at Tom Clancy-style bureaucratic glory, due to the punctilious nature of the feds, reminded me of the recent 60 Minutes story on security clearance for Snowden (and He-She Manning, and the spree killer of color at the Naval Yard). All of the details were fairly outrageous but in Snowden’s case, a CIA alert on him was circumvented when he wrote that his work there was “classified” (BTW, so far no smoking matza-ball there aside from the ethnic stripe of his libertarian reporter patron; but I’m confident the case will be cracked). Thus when you make your dark-matter speculations about the overly careful CIA (recently working Iraqi WMD tipsters in such technical niches as a German Burger King franchise) it’s a small relief at least to see your freely offered disclaimer of having no clue. Although it would be nice if you elucidated the off-the-cuff Ecstasy smuggling remark– the last big story on that in the Miami Herald didn’t seem to have a lot of Hebraic overtones at first glance, to a layman’s eyes.

The near misses of SpaceX were thrilling in themselves, like the rocket falling just as it should have landed, but I appreciate what they were trying to do a bit more.

But did Musk at least properly credit his (near) success to ¡Diversity! or like Bezos pretend it was all done by white folks whom we know “didn’t build this”?

Maybe my children will have their flying cars and Mars bases.

Yeah, you should probably set your hopes a bit lower. I’ll be happy if my kids aren’t forced to pay jizya and the country still has indoor plumbing.

It was. I mean it. I did two years of Latin in school.

Yeah, you should probably set your hopes a bit lower. I’ll be happy if my kids aren’t forced to pay jizya and the country still has indoor plumbing.

You made me laugh out loud. There should be a thread like that.

Seriously, yeah, space. Lots of potential disappointments there, but people who lived through the optimism of the 1960s and 1970s would know that a lot better than I. I’m sure Musk’s companies pay some indirect protection money in the form of caterers and the like to compensate for the lack of melanin on-staff.

I think this is another case where Trump’s big mouth comes out with something from the far corner of his brain.

It seems to me that there’s two Donald Trumps: the sane one who’s often honest and quite right about things that people like him usually deny and the other one that’s off in la-la land somewhere. The bad thing is that it looks like sane Donald ends up believing his own BS a lot of the time.

Anyway, for those who are interested, here’s links to two articles from nj.com that indicate that there were no cheering thousands in Jersey City or anywhere else in New Jersey, either.

http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2015/11/trump_says_old_news_clip_shows_hes_owed_an_apology.html

“Shai Goldstein, the former New Jersey regional director of the Anti-Defamation League, said it’s possible that Trump and others are confusing alleged cheering in New Jersey with celebrations that occurred in the West Bank on 9/11.

“Nothing happened in Jersey City nor Paterson,” Goldstein told NJ Advance Media. “No one knew when the Twin Towers fell who was responsible and investigations by the ADL concluded there were no celebrations of any kind — none — in Paterson or any where else in New Jersey.”

http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2015/11/star-ledger_coverage_of_nj_muslim_communities_in_t.html?hootPostID=68175e4af508e144b6be8fdc791a1f1b#incart_river_home

Um. No. That’s not what Trump remembers. He’s lying. Anyone who doesn’t think he’s lying is lying to themself.

Yes. There were celebrations in other parts of the world. But not in New Jersey. He can’t admit he’s wrong.

Sign of bad character in a bad person.

The article posted has little if anything to do with the current Trump controversy.

And getting the race of Barack’s would be sons completely wrong.

I doubt if this was terribly important incident, although I have to say I was surprised to see how seriously the FBI took it.

they had a video camera set up to watch the first plane hit the tower

than means they had advance knowledge

and they were clearly celebrating the horror

the imbeciles then went on Israeli television to explain that they were there to “document the event’

that means that they knew it was going to happen, were Israeli intelligence and perhaps significantly, their bosses and higher-ups in the Israeli government didn’t think it was important to warn the Americans that this singularly evil crime event was about to happen

Personally I consider that important, since we send billions of dollars to Israel every year, I think it’s rather ungrateful for them to take all that money and then cynically watch us being murdered with cameras rolling and then dancing and high-fiving at our loss, even if they do think that- USS Liberty like- it will cause us to kill their (myriad and well-earned) enemies for them.

And then Bibi blurted out of the attacks that “they’re very good”, before amending it and considering the PR repercussions, to say something like ‘well, it’s good for Israel’, or some such thing

one more reason I consider this a rather important incident is because of the way all our politicians, and especially the presidential candidates from both parties are always clamoring to demand that ‘Israel is our best ally ever!’ and ‘we can never do enough for Israel!’, it just seems a little unseemly when you consider how Israel treats the American tax payer and dances around as they’re horrifically slaughtered or dropping from the towers or dying slowly in the flames.

OT – Sweden chucks the towel in.

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/nov/24/sweden-asylum-seekers-refugees-policy-reversal

“Sweden needs “respite” from the tens of thousands of refugees knocking at its door, the government has said, announcing tough measures to deter asylum seekers in a sharp reversal of its open-door policy towards people fleeing war and persecution.
The country’s generous asylum regime would revert to the “EU minimum”, Sweden’s prime minister, Stefan Löfven, said on Tuesday, revealing that most refugees would receive only temporary residence permits from April.
Identity checks would be imposed on all modes of transport, and the right to bring families to Sweden would be severely restricted, he said.”

The Greens’ deputy prime minister, Åsa Romson, broke into tears as she announced the measures.

Do you imagine that Mossad spies are so clumsily trained that they high-five each other and dance and smile in public when their mission comes off?

You ask why they were happy. Who knows? Maybe they were just jerks.

organized crime (e.g., the Ecstasy pill trade)

Weird that you mention that. I was just reading about how a lot of the funds from Project Coast ended up being used by Wouter Basson t0 buy the chemical precursors to Ecstasy. The post-Apartheid government couldn’t figure out where the chemicals or money went, and somehow two biotech guys (Dr. Larry Ford and Pat Riley from Biofem in California) ended up dying. Nothing in there mentioned the Israelis though.

I also have an extremely keen Jewdar and am able to spot Jews and mischlings quite accurately.

Well, you must have the gene for it or a license to practice or something, because when I say stuff like this I’m condemned as an icky “ANTISEMITE!!!”

Although it would be nice if you elucidated the off-the-cuff Ecstasy smuggling remark– the last big story on that in the Miami Herald didn’t seem to have a lot of Hebraic overtones at first glance, to a layman’s eyes.

Israelis dominate ecstasy trade

the same sort of way that Ireland verifies that one of your four grandparents was Irish, before giving you your Irish passport.

No shit? I’ve got an Irish grandma. Do they have Apartheid there, too?

Aw, I checked. “Irish grandparent” means a grandparent born in Ireland. Not the same at all.

The implication in several of the posts here is that very low level assets (the moving company illegals) would have had knowledge of a Mossad plot on 9/11. That is absurd. That would mean the Israeli intelligence agency would be staffed by idiots and that persons posting on this blog and various internet nuts would have uncovered the great secret. If the Mossad can penetrate Iran and kill Iranian nuclear scientists, which by all accounts they did, despite the scientists being under tight guard and despite the Iranians being aware the Israelis had every intention of killing them, no one on this blog has uncovered anything at all about the Mossad. Or maybe I am a secret Mossad Elks Club Masonic Temple Super “Shabbo Goy” – as someone here so eloquently put it.

Steve, this is a ridiculous Larry David CYI episode.
http://gorillavid.in/tmvxajjvpqzl
He accuses the LA weatherman of predicting rain so people change plans and the weatherman has the course wide open the next day when it is sunny.

Here is the with links to the episodes. My wife is hooked on the show.
http://thewatchseries.to/serie/curb_your_enthusiasm

Some of this may be because of a photo Instapundit posted years ago of some yuppies on a roof looking blase as they looked on as the WTC burned.

Another odd I thing I saw on the local news. I forget how long it was after, maybe 3-4 hours. A reporter was reporting on the incident from what he said was the closest he could get to the site while not interfering in the rescue, 20-30 blocks I remember. I saw a woman jogging behind him.

I think people have forgotten how raw emotions (understandably) were on 9/11. If there had really been a huge crowd of thousands cheering the attacks in public, the result would have been a battle in the streets between them and non-Muslims. Especially in the New York metropolitan area! A small group or a single individual might well have ended up outright lynched. Who knows what might have gone on behind closed doors, but huge demonstrations in public could not have happened without consequences.

They went on television and said they were there to “document the event”. They had the camera set up and were seen celebrating after the FIRST plane hit.

from a link:

“Witnesses reported they had set cameras PRIOR to the first plane strike”

here:

https://wikispooks.com/wiki/9-11/Israel_did_it

I can and will research it further if that is a significant point for you. I’d be happy to find out all I can.

But what we do know is, as I’ve said, they had a camera set up when the first plane hit. (I don’t have proof right now that it was filming at the moment, but since George Bush has stated publically that he too saw the first plane his the tower, we know there were several cameras watching).

So, since they had a camera set up (presumably for the purpose of filming the event), and since they admitted that they were there to “document the event, it seems reasonable to assume that the camera was filming. No?

OT

A brisk response in the London Telegraph to a Muslim Uber driver who berated an ageing actress, so good.

But this paragraph truly shocked me: “Astonishingly, according to one Belgian official speaking yesterday on Radio 4, the population of Brussels, the capital of Europe, is 40 per cent Muslim. Shell-shocked politicians now admit there has been perilously little integration. ”

Did the writer not know? Did she not read the papers? Is this going to be the excuse then, we didn’t know?

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/islamic-state/12014689/Frances-Barber-is-right-Islamic-extremism-is-making-London-unrecognisable.html

“When I had a small office in an office park I used to get regular cold calls from “art salesmen.” Their schtick was to say that they had some art that had been ordered by someone else in the building but that they had since moved out. Rather than take the art back they said they’d cut a deal and give it to me for a rock bottom price.

They were just selling cheap knockoff Ansel Adams reproductions, obviously without paying any licensing fees. The story was about cancelled orders was just part of the sales pitch. There are plenty of similar scams, including door-to-door meat salesmen. One of the most famous is the “white box speaker” sales guys. They’ll cadge you in parking lots and tell you they were making a delivery on expensive stereo speakers, but the deal fell through. Rather than take them back they’ll sell you these top-flight speakers for a low, low price. The speakers are actually crap and the price is inflated, but the story helps make the sale.

If the “Israeli art students” were actually spies I’d expect them to conceal their foreign extraction. From an information gathering standpoint it’s a negative to volunteer that information, but probably a positive for making sales of overpriced art.”

OK, but that doesn’t really explain why they followed my dad and I all over Santa Clara County for a week or two, does it? How many times could the two of us run into them all over various “Silicon Valley” locales, before it stopped being “a coincidence?”

This is from a Fox News link

at the bottom

The New York Times reported Thursday that a group of five men had set up video cameras aimed at the Twin Towers prior to the attack on Tuesday, and were seen congratulating one another afterwards.

my emphasis

http://www.foxnews.com/story/2001/09/14/one-arrested-others-detained-at-ny-airports.html

Why would Israelis use illegals working as movers to record such an event and celebrate it publicly? Because according to the sleuths on this board, not only are the Israeli intelligence agencies dumb, they verge on the retarded.

“Uh Oh!…Part LXII!”

I hate to inform you, but you are in clear violation of the NFL’s exclusive license from the Romans to use Roman numerals. Pay up!

Heard on NPR today (paraphrasing): “Muslims are the main victims of ISIS, they’re the main group battling ISIS, and now they’re the people being blamed for ISIS.”

Yeah, well, that’s because ISIS is Muslim, you jackasses. Perhaps more to the point, the people victimized by ISIS and the people fighting ISIS are far less Muslim than ISIS is. These people have their (stupid) rhetoric well-honed from the better part of a century spent whitewashing blacks.

“the ADL concluded there were no celebrations of any kind — none — in Paterson or any where else in New Jersey.”

Well, I guess that makes everything all white then, doesn’t it?

The implication in several of the posts here is that very low level assets (the moving company illegals) would have had knowledge of a Mossad plot on 9/11. That is absurd.

Dunno. Take it up with the people who made those posts. The fact I am stating is that there was speculation in the wake of 9/11 that the Mossad agents were tracking terrorists in America and knew attacks were imminent.

Or maybe I am a secret Mossad Elks Club Masonic Temple Super “Shabbo Goy” – as someone here so eloquently put it.

The famous Jewish comedic genius is on display, I suppose.

If we are going to argue this in terms of what Donald Trump could have seen on TV or in person or what the ADL could have used as evidence that proved thousands cheered, I don’t think we can count the ABC News story, can we?

The experience of the eyewitness Maria was not captured by a video or broadcast on TV and the ABC News story was about just five people.

Did I miss something?

The scam works on greed, so it’s very effective. The simplest is to imply that the goods are ‘dodgy’. So for example: ‘A bottle of Chanel Number 5 for a fiver, but better make it quick. I can’t hang around, if you know what I mean?’ Often an insider makes the first purchase, setting off the marks. Of course, the sting is that the goods are actually dodgy; not stolen, but 2 dollar knock-offs. As with all these schemes, its hard to catch someone twice, so they rely on fresh meat. But as PT Barnum said…

BTW, as as non-Israeli student, I sold ‘original oil paintings’ door to door for a guy named Friedman. I was never equipped with a Minox camera or anything, but then I never made Salesman-of-the-Week either, so who knows?

Though Israel is a famously fractious society, Israelis tend to agree on one thing: Their strongest supporters are an inherently dupable people.

“Most Israelis think Americans are pro-Israel and we can sell them anything, especially mud from the Dead Sea,” said David Lifshitz, the lead writer for the Israeli comedy show “Eretz Nehederet,” or “Wonderful Land.”

“Or — just regular mud with a ‘Dead Sea’ sticker on it.”

seems to be ‘memory holed’, but if that one detail would make a difference to the narrative for you, I’ll still find what I can.

I notice you didn’t consider my little blurt about how George Bush said publically (and on camera) that he saw the first plane hit WTC tower- curious. Did you know that? Does it matter to your mind if he said it or even if he did see it?

I don’t know where you stand on the whole 911 thing. A lot of people consider it prudent to not care too much. Perhaps it is.

On a semi-related note Carl Cameron of Fox News did a story on Israeli “art student’ spies rounded up after 911

‘evidence linking these Israelis to 9-11 is classified. I cannot tell you about evidence that has been gathered. It’s classified information.’

It just occurred to me what Donald Trump remembers seeing and confused with thousands of Muslims in New Jersey cheering the collapse of the Twin Towers was actually seeing thousands of blacks across the country cheering the acquittal of O.J. Simpson. Who could forget that display of civic virtue, a large segment of the U.S. population actually cheering the acquittal of a brutal murderer? Oh, that’s right, the two victims were white. Nothing to get excited about.

“Hebrew kings – up to & including Herod – never (to my memory of the bible) tried to dual-hat themselves as a High Priest. ”

Your memory is off fwiw. Pretty much the entire hasmonean dynasty was dual hat . Herod didn’t try it because he was unfit for priestly caste due to ancestry.

Of course.

The implication in several of the posts here is that very low level assets (the moving company illegals) would have had knowledge of a Mossad plot on 9/11. That is absurd.

speaking of foreknowledge of the attacks, did you know Al Franken wrote in his book that he was warned not to go to work at the WTC that day?

One of the widely disseminated stories was that no Jews died in the collapse of the Trade Towers because they had received calls telling them not to go to work that day. To tell you the truth, I got the Jew call. I had an office in the Trade Center where I used to do most of my writing. The call came from former New York mayor Ed Koch. “Al,” he told me, “don’t go to work on the twenty-third day of Elul [September 11 – ed].”

just Google it

isn’t that a curious phenomena? First that it was widely enough known that people were warning (certain) other people about it, and then that he’d write such a thing in a book!

Well, a few of them were members of the Mossad and they were dancing, smiling and having a gay ole time. So you seem to have trouble accepting reality. It isn’t important if they were well-trained. It is only important that the American media is.

Based on my personal knowledge of the Occupy movement, I would bet (a) that this had nothing to do with race, (b) it was a drug deal gone bad.

America is an ally of Israel, but Israel is not an ally of the Unites States. That is how the relationship works.

Yes, Carl Cameron and Fox News did some good initial reporting on this issue, but then they went quiet. I wonder what could have happened? Fox News also removed their report from their website on the Israel art student spy ring after only two days. They never said the information was wrong or inaccurate. Fox News: Fair, balanced, and unafraid….except of the Israeli Lobby.

Funniest example I’ve ever seen of this…

Years ago, and I’m 95% sure it was John Podhoretz, was commenting at National Review’s blog. He had gotten excited about Ben Roethlisberger (pre-scandal), wondering if he was Jewish. Perhaps it was a Super Bowl, but lots of eyes were on him for some reason. So John googled it and posted what is the funniest bit of trolling I personally have ever come across…

When you googled Ben Roethlisberger and Jewish, the first entry was an excited, eager, hyperventilating promised expose of whether Ben, indeed, was Jewish. When you clicked the link, you were brought to a single page with a single sentence in plain type at the very top of the page, just like what your opened desktop .txt file would look like:
Sorry, Jews, he’s not one of yours.

Unfunny comedians deserve to be taken literally.

I had to take a look

it’s not Smiley, it’s Smalley

as in ‘small’..

; )

NYT:

On Monday night, community members asked the men what they were doing and asked them to remove their masks, she said, but they refused and were then escorted away.

It’s not that hard to figure out what went on here. Citizens were filming something the #BLM didn’t want filmed, and #BLM goons attempted to run them off with physical violence. (“refused and were then escorted away.”) Things got dodgy and the people being “escorted” pulled their pieces, perhaps justifiably and perhaps not.

Some had speculated that FDR had intelligence warning about the imminent attack in Pearl Harbor, but chose to do nothing in order to motivate an isolationist public to join the charge into war.

I am still constantly hearing about ridiculous conspiracy theories that those attacks in 2001 were an inside job false flag operation. In this case the theories are absurd because the US has never needed such an extreme casus belli to go to war. Some other trumped up incident would have been sufficient to mobilize the public and the troops. It’s not that I don’t believe in conspiracies by the powerful. Rather I’m convinced that many conspiracies are so effective and remain secret that the public would never imagine or suspect what happened. The more ridiculous stories keep the usual suspects distracted from investigating the real ones and undermine any of their credibility if they ever do stumble upon anything real. In this case, what if it wasn’t exactly an inside job but rather that the Israelis had reliable intelligence about the likelihood of that attack but chose not to pursue the leads very diligently or aggressively?

Yes, you supposed right on that one point. On all the rest you supposed wrong.

I recall seeing the New Utrecht High School Palestinian kid being part of a documentary on PBS or History or some other cable channel. Made a few attempts to search for it, but admittedly nothing comes up now. You can note that several of the 9/11 hijackers did live in apartments in Brooklyn and New Jersey in the years prior to 9/11, attended mosques in NYC (specifically one on 3rd Avenue and one on Bedford Avenue in Brooklyn) and probably had some contacts with people they knew from their time there, and perhaps spoke to their old friends in the run-up to that day.Grant you that sounds like speculation, if logical.

Not if you weren’t convicted .

Steve: “Do we know that? From what?”

They started filming and photographing themselves right after the first plane hit the North Tower. At that point how did they know it was a terrorist attack? Most of the assumptions were that it was some kind of horrible accident. It wasn’t until the second plane hit the South Tower that everyone became aware of a coordinated attack. So why so giddy over a random plane flying into a building? Also I wonder why we have never seen any of these photographs? Rhetorical question.

Also from the FBI report: “‘A former Urban Moving Systems employee later contacted the Newark Division with information indicating that he had quit his employment with Urban Moving Systems due to high amount of anti-American sentiment present among Urban’s employees. The former employee stated that an Israeli employee of Urban had even once remarked, ‘Give us twenty (20) years and we’ll take over your media and destroy your country.’”

p.s. And these are our allies.

Funny. I guess I could say the same. How many Mischlingen who have gotten skeptical of the tribe are there here? I thought I was the only one, but it seems fairly common at the fringes of the alt-right.

That is…more humor and distance than I would expect from J-Pod.

It was probably a joke. He is a comedian, after all.

I actually thought Stuart Smalley was a pretty good sendup of therapy culture. If you lived in New York in the 80s and 90s, you heard that stuff all the time.

I can’t believe there are so many questions surrounding 9/11 and Israeli involvement, and nobody in power seems the least bit interested in getting to the bottom of it.

It’s truly a mystery.

LOL! Absolutely hilarious.

Though he should be J-Ackass instead of J-Pod. His brays are pure and unmixed moonbattery.

I would like to think he could be dissuaded from his stupidity. Reason and experience argue forcefully against that outcome.

Anonymous: “It’s truly a mystery.”

I know, shocking isn’t it? Who would have thought that people in power care more about power than the truth?

“………..speaking of foreknowledge of the attacks, did you know Al Franken wrote in his book that he was warned not to go to work at the WTC that day?”

It was a joke. He often used to make them – he was a comedian.

“I notice you didn’t consider my little blurt about how George Bush said publically (and on camera) that he saw the first plane hit WTC tower- curious. Did you know that? Does it matter to your mind if he said it or even if he did see it?”

And what is so odd about that?

“I don’t know where you stand on the whole 911 thing. A lot of people consider it prudent to not care too much. Perhaps it is. ”

A lot of people consider it prudent not to indulge in the kind of insanity that has largely come to characterizes the “Truther” movement.

Now that we have rediscovered that is was Israelis dancing in New Jersey, the story will plunge right back down the memory hole.

The simple approach that works for your folks and my folks–separation. Your people run your affairs–have the level of policing and tolerate the level of violence that your people desire.

Cool, what states are you giving us? I like California.

“Ever watched The Americans? That’s why it was so “over the top”; they wanted to make sure you were born and raised here, and not living a cover story.”

The worst ever FBI mole, Robert Hanssen, was born and raised in America.

I saw a couple episodes of “The Americans”. It seemed ridiculous. I think it unlikely that it’s a realistic portrayal of espionage (for example, I imagine that murdering a defector in your own garage is not a very smart thing for a deep-cover agent to do). Yeah, the show has some former spooks as technical advisors. Technical advisors often just get ignored by writers, directors, and producers.

Even if they didn’t know an attack would or might happen, they still would have filmed it. Wouldn’t anyone? If they were engaged in surveilance they would have had video-cameras, and most people who had video-cameras on that that day, who weren’t in immediate danger, filmed what they could of the attacks.

Something like “Guy-uz Yule-lee-uz Kae-sar”

Kie-sar. First syllable is just like the first syllable of the German “Kaiser”.

I’m really surprised no one has mentioned the E-Team Israeli art students who installed a balcony on the 91st floor of the WTC in March 2001.

This shenanigans was reported on in the NYT.

Steve went to school in Houston.

I can’t believe there are so many questions surrounding 9/11 and Israeli involvement, and nobody in power seems the least bit interested in getting to the bottom of it.

It’s truly a mystery.

The PNACkers were the prime suspects, and their network extended into the government, so it’s natural to suspect some government involvement, especially in view of otherwise hard-to-explain facts like the failure of the military to intercept the hijacked planes and the government’s decision to destroy the crime scene so quickly.

You can also find the archived version of the official, Mexican govt. site confirming the explosives.

https://wikispooks.com/wiki/2001_Mexican_legislative_assembly_attack

Counter protest at BLM protest. BLM’ers chase away counter protesters and pursue them down the street. Then pursuing party gets shot at.

5 People Shot Near BLM Protest

If you trace the web reports that mention explosives back far enough they usually go to a single source.

Google translation from El Universal:

The security guard Guersson Smeke Salvador, arrested two days inside the Chamber of Deputies with the former Israeli military course Sauar Ben Zvi has a license to carry a 9mm weapon. issued by the Secretariat of National Defense (SDN), effective December 31 this year.
This is an “individual” license filed before the SDN earlier this year and issued by the agency earlier this year. Sources at the Attorney General’s Office noted that Guersson Salvador is the only of the two detainees who are duly registered with the Ministry of Public Security.
“But the other person, who was not armed, we have no clear data and we are still investigating,” they said.

No explosives. A single security guard with one Glock.

In the jumpy days after 9/11 there were all sorts of bogus reports.

Many intelligence agencies do the same thing. If you’re in a technical field of interest to the US IC and a ‘reliable’ US citizen, you may be approached and interviewed, either before and/or after you’ve attended any sort of foreign technical events (symposiums, conferences, etc etc) or simply involved in routine foreign business.

This safety is enhanced by Jewish religious law. Being a “moser” (one who rats out a fellow Jew to gentiles) is a death penalty offense.

I must have missed all those beheadings those damn Jews have done for ‘mosing.’

You want a realistic depiction of the IC? Watch the movie “Spies Like Us” and “Office Space.”

Um…he was joking. He called it ‘the Jew call.’ I Googled it and lots of site are holding it up as proof of something nefarious. Lots of sites are clearly written by idiots.

Are Israeli mafias really muling “club drugs” (as opposed to legal pharma which they’re quite involved in)? That sounds more like the type of thing those “Pain and Gain” meatheads in So. Florida specialized in. In fact it seems kinda like a not-worth-checking innuendo filler for an “e.g.” tidbit… They might swim in the same waters, sure. But the frankly bizarre conceit that cutthroat ex-Mossad gangsters are flooding the heartland with MDMA (depressed blue-collare whites have taken up raving with glow-sticks & pacifiers?) is either your Pulitzer in waiting or you just made it up.

I’d also be open to the possibility that it comes from your own experience, in-between 3am blog posts hitting the EDM scene in warehouses off Lankershim Boulevard. After all there’s a lot we don’t know about you, and your lifestyle does seem a bit odd.

Yes, read the surrounding context in his book, it’s an obvious joke.

Also, after you read and confirm this, make sure to come back here and retract your mistake, so that no other researchers are suckered into embarrassing themselves.

Since a particular demographic group (age x sex x race) comprising only about 2% of our resident population commits about half of all of the murders in the United States– year in and year out, decade after decade– no “cherry-picking” is necessary.

Yes, but to the best of my knowledge, the suspicious warning to Odigo employees, which I posted a link about, above, has never been explained, let alone explained away…!?!

Here is that link, again, to a news story, from Israel itself, published fifteen days after 9/11:

Gentlemen :

The coincidences just keep piling up.

I am surprised no one has mentioned yet the “E-Team” :

http://robscholtemuseum.nl/mark-dotzler-thoughts-on-the-wtc-artists/

This was a group of Israeli Art students who were given exclusive access to seven critical stories of the WTC north tower to perform an “art installation” that consisted among other things of the giant office-window billboard spelling out “E TEAM”, and an actual balcony they installed for a few hours by removing a pane of glass.

This is the real deal people, it’s getting hotter.

Even the NYT wrote about the E-team and their 91st-floor balcony :

http://www.nytimes.com/2001/08/18/nyregion/balcony-scene-unseen-atop-world-episode-trade-center-assumes-mythic-qualities.html?pagewanted=all&src=pm

There’s a lot of Israeli art students and e-team (explosives team?) stuff on crimes of the times today.

One thing that is absolutely freaking me out :

The boxes and boxes and boxes of BB 18 on the 91st floor of the Israeli art students E-Team project.

Prepare to get spooked :
