A terrorist known in his hometown as "Hitler" both for his physical resemblance to the German dictator and for his policies has swept local primaries and will represent his district for the ruling Fatah party in upcoming Palestinian legislative elections, according to Palestinian sources.
Islamo-Fascism
"While the nickname came because of his looks, he is known more as Hitler because of his policies. He runs a tight ship in his town through fear and intimidation. And he not only calls for executions but personally carries them out in public so everyone can see what happens when 'Hitler' thinks you collaborated with Israel."

[Hitler] was one of dozens of terrorists and militant leaders to dominate the local elections.
Terror leader/serial killer a popular favorite
Also yesterday, Palestinian election officials certified the landslide primary win of Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades Founder Marwan Barghouti, who is serving multiple life terms in Israeli prison for planning suicide bombings and shooting attacks. Israel accuses Barghouti of orchestrating the Intifada, the terror war launched by the Palestinians in 2000.
Barghouti took 96 percent of the votes to head Fatah's roster in Ramallah, spurring calls from Palestinians and some Israeli ministers for his immediate release.
On October 25th, Secretary of State Rice called Islam a religion of "peace and love"
Peace and love? Are those the new euphemisms for fascism and terror? Orwell is enjoying a belly laugh in his grave.
If anyone comes across examples of Condi Rice praising Christianity or Judaism please bring it to our attention.
Good point. Here's the full speech that she gave to Muslims at the White House during Ramadan.
"So, of all nations, America has no cause for false pride and we have every reason for humility."
Well, by logic, nobody has cause for pride that is false. From the latter part of the sentence, it seems that this is not an intentional use of a double negative ("no" and "false") and that she meant to say, essentially, "America has only false cause for pride." That puts her squarely at odds with mainstream America, especially conservatives.
Ironically, the personal account that she gave of how racism in America was overcome by grassroots reform and of how she was able to rise up in society to her current position is a shining testimony of why the US does have true cause for true pride! We, as a people, repented from our sin and overcame our cause for shame.
I can't believe she said, "of all nations." Now, that is just blatant America bashing. Uh, Somalia? Iran? Her ultra-egalitarian speech would be borderline-illegal in most Islamic countries. Her success could not have happened in most countries, least of all Arab/Islamic countries. A black... Christian... woman? Ha ha ha! That's three strikes.
Why would Rice say something so awful? Does she think she has to besmirch America's character to make Muslims like her? I'm getting fed up with Rice. I used to be a big fan, but since she became Secretary of State, she's taken a terrible turn for the worse. She and Bush keep bullying Israel and praising the ideology of our enemies. *sigh* There's something about Washington, DC that inhibits, and even rolls back, learning and wisdom.
Just laugh. Don't try to understand it. Enjoy, and have a good weekend.
Not exactly, but I like to dream.

The anti-Israel propaganda - which included a banner bearing the slogan "Today Gaza, Tomorrow the West Bank and Jerusalem" - was underwritten by the United Nations Development Program,* which has been headed in recent years by Mark Malloch Brown, who is now chief of staff to Secretary-General Annan.
I really like John Bolton. As a point of contrast, let's now look at Condoleezza Rice. As National Security Advisor, she was charming and wonderful. But when she became Secretary of State back in February, she must have had a reverse-Damascus Road experience. She turned into a demon and has been relentlessly attacking Israel ever since. From the first and mildest link is this paragraph:
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, in an interview with The New York Times, called the withdrawal a "dramatic moment" and said that soon after it is complete, Israel must take further steps, including loosening travel restrictions in the West Bank and withdrawing from more Palestinian cities.
In other words, "Today Gaza, Tomorrow the West Bank and Jerusalem." That's the Bush administration's policy concerning Israel.
After giving up the Sinai Peninsula, after Bethlehem, Jericho, Tul Karem (and probably lots more I'm forgetting), twenty towns in Gaza, four in Samaria... More??! The "Palestinians" got 80% of the Palestine Mandate. It's called Jordan! And nearly two dozen other countries. It seems to me that only fire-breathing Jew haters could demand more land giveaways to uncompromising, terrorist enemies.
As unbelievable as it is, there seems to be little difference between Bush, Rice, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the PA on the next step of the "[Israel in] Pieces Process." I think we need Bolton in Washington to stop the Islamist propaganda coming out of the White House. That coming out of the State Department is nothing new, but I thought Condi would be different. To my astonishment, so far, she seems worse than Colin Powell.
One more thing... Listen up, "Condi the Christian"... She's such a good piano player and all, she should play the Schindler's List theme as she watches on TV Jews being ripped out their homes while the Islamo-fascists stand by and cackle with glee... Calling Bethlehem (which is in the West Bank) a "Palestinian city" burns me up! Matthew 2 clearly states that Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea. (The Messianic prophecy in Micah 5:2 says "Bethlehem of Judah.") It was occupied territory alright... by the Romans! Bethlehem was no more a Roman city than it is a Palestinian, i.e., Arab/Muslim city, (by right) today. The same goes for all of the "disputed territories." It's not disputed in the Holy Bible.
Likud's Guidelines of the Government of Israel
VI. Settlement
Settlement in the Negev, the Galilee, the Golan Heights, the Jordan Valley, and in Judea, Samaria and Gaza is of national importance to Israel's defense and an expression of Zionist fulfillment. The Government will alter the settlement policy, act to consolidate and develop the settlement enterprise in these areas, and allocate the resources necessary for this.
Chapter 1: Peace & Security
Preamble
The right of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel is an eternal right, not subject to dispute, and includes the right to security and peace. Zionism is the liberation movement of the Jewish people, and its fulfilment is at the top of the list of priorities of the Government of Israel. Immigration will be increased, and settlement will be strengthened. The decision to freeze settlements will be rescinded.
Operatives
5. Jewish settlement, security areas, water resources, state land and road intersections in Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip shall remain under full Israeli control.
Chapter 8: Agriculture & Settlement
1. Settlement in all parts of the Land of Israel is of national importance and part of Israel's defense strategy. The government will allocate special resources for settlement in border and sparcely-populated areas.
Article 24: This Organization does not exercise any territorial sovereignty over the West Bank in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, on the Gaza Strip or in the Himmah Area. Its activities will be on the national popular level in the liberational, organizational, political and financial fields.
Joshua 13:2-4
"This is the land that still remains: all the regions of the Philistines* and all the Geshuri, from the Shichor which fronts Egypt, to the border of Ekron (northward from there the land is considered as belonging to the Kena'ani)-that is, the territory of the rulers of the Philistines* in Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gat and Ekron; also the Avim to the south; all the land of the Kena'ani..."
Joshua 15:20,45-47
This is the inheritance of the tribe of the descendants of Judah, by clans. [...] Ekron, with its towns and villages - from Ekron to the sea; all those near Ashdod, with their villages; Ashdod, with its towns and villages; Gaza, with its towns and villages, to the Vadi of Egypt, with the Great Sea as its border.
Remember Moses said to his people: "O my people! Call in remembrance the favour of Allah unto you, when He produced prophets among you, made you kings, and gave you what He had not given to any other among the peoples. O my people! Enter the holy land which Allah hath assigned unto you, and turn not back ignominiously, for then will ye be overthrown, to your own ruin." They said: "O Moses! In this land are a people of exceeding strength: Never shall we enter it until they leave it: if (once) they leave, then shall we enter." (But) among (their) Allah-fearing men were two on whom Allah had bestowed His grace: They said: "Assault them at the (proper) Gate: when once ye are in, victory will be yours; But on Allah put your trust if ye have faith."
2 Chronicles 20:6-7
O LORD, the God of our fathers, are You not God in the heavens? And are You not ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand so that no one can stand against You. Did You not, O our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel and give it to the descendants of Abraham Your friend forever?
Amos 9:14-15
I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel; they will rebuild and inhabit the ruined cities; they will plant vineyards and drink their wine, cultivate gardens and eat their fruit. (Note: Gush Katif means Harvest Block.) I will plant them on their own soil, no more to be uprooted from their land, which I gave them," says ADONAI your God.
Alas, Israel's restoration is delayed yet again. The dry bones are walking (Ezekiel 37:11-14), but too many of the hearts are not circumcised (Deut. 30:6-8, Jeremiah 4:4).
You really should click on that link above. ^^ Or here.
* The Philistines, or P'lishtim, have no relation to today's Arafat-named "Palestinians." Besides, the Creator of the World has designated Gaza, regardless of who was or is living there, to be for the people of Israel as long "as the heavens are above the earth" (Deut. 11:21).
President George W. Bush is criss-crossing Europe in a fascinating combination of venues (Latvia, Georgia, Netherlands, Russia) to commemorate the surrender of Nazi Germany in May 1945. On May 9 the President was in Latvia and gave a speech that contained many criticisms of post-War Soviet imperialism and also exposed some of the more salient duplicities of current American foreign policy.
One of the main themes that the President has been given to enunciate is that great powers have erred terribly in sacrificing the existence &/or freedom of small nations while pursuing great-power games. For example, as reported by L. Bumiller in the New York Times (highly skilled itself in shaping &/or effacing history, not least where the Children of Israel are concerned), "Mr. Bush indirectly acknowledged that the United States and Britain shared some blame for the annexation of the Baltics, noting that the 1945 Yalta agreement, in which Europe was carved up by Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin, was in an 'unjust tradition' of earlier treaties like the Munich and Molotov-Ribbentrop pacts."
Ms. Bumiller (or her editors) did not choose to elaborate on the carving up by Britain and France of Czechoslovakia in 1938 to appease Germany and achieve, as Neville Chamberlain so memorably put it, "peace in our times." Nor did the Times note the striking analogy (cited by many others in the past decade) between what the European democracies did to the Czechs, crippling their ability to resist and insuring the eventual occupation of their state, and what the EU and American governments, spurred by the State Department, have been doing to Israel since the embargo of 1947 and more particularly, since the surrender Jewish "land for [worthless Arab promises of] peace" deals that have bound together American policy from Richard Nixon's secretary of State William Rogers to Mr. Bush's own Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice.
Yes, the American government has for a long time, with Europe's incessant encouragement (one could write 'incitement') been trying to do to Israel what the British did to the Czechs at Munich. Now of course, in Peres and Sharon, the State Department has put in place a team of puppets who will do their work for them, carving up a small democracy in pursuit of its odd global policies. The suicidal aspect of these betrayals is even more glaring in the current iteration of the game in that America's foundational charter, institutions, values, and laws were consciously modeled on those of ancient Israel and assume what is at the heart of Judaism: the concept of and faith that the universe has been created and is ruled by a merciful and just God Who observes and listens to mankind, Who weighs their deeds and Who has declared His decisive and unique concern for Israel as His Land and people.
As Moshe emphasized at the end of his long life of service, "the L-rd's portion is His people: Jacob is the measure of His inheritance" (Deut 32:9). Yet here is the Bush administration, up to its Euro-blinkered eyeballs in a policy that demands the expulsion and scattering of Jews and dividing up of their small land (cf. Joel 3-4; equivalent to 2:28-ch. 3 in most Bibles - sy). Hear the President indict himself while his script writers hope that the audience is no more than half listening, is trapped in the present moment.
"Once again, when powerful governments negotiated, the freedom of small nations was somehow expendable," Mr. Bush said. "Yet this attempt to sacrifice freedom for the sake of stability left a continent divided and unstable. The captivity of millions in Central and Eastern Europe will be remembered as one of the greatest wrongs of history."
It can be assumed that the Master of the universe has an attention span and memory even greater that that of Mr. Bush's and Mr. Blair's speech writers. Yet, so great is the arrogance and so deep is the sleep of these 'mountains' of the world, that they forge ahead, even making analogies to their plan for "democracy and peace" in the Middle East, peace that somehow ignores what they are so zealously doing to Israel and to the Jewish people there.
Here again is the Times report: "Mr. Bush sought to tie democratic change in Eastern Europe to that he seeks in the Middle East. "Freedom is the only reliable path to peace," he said. "If the Middle East continues to simmer in anger and hopelessness, caught in a cycle of repression and radicalism, it will produce terrorism of even greater audacity and destructive power." He added that "we will not repeat the mistakes of other generations appeasing or excusing tyranny, and sacrificing freedom in the vain pursuit of stability."
Pardon us, but this is more than sleepwalking, this is flagrant hypocrisy; this is the chanting of those waltzing a totentanz on a narrenschiff. And why so? Because the policy of recent American administrations is to ignore (aside from occasional rhetorical flourishes and brief missile showers) Islamic totalitarianism and imperialism and attempts to put the nation and people of Israel on the altars of geo-political profit and Islam's fanatical hatred of Jews. This hatred, for example, as Erich Isaac recently has explained (Outpost, May 2005) was writ large in the destruction of the ancient, large and thriving Jewish community in Mesopotamia when the British created their rogue dependency called "Iraq" there in the 1920s.
It is Islam that is "caught in a cycle of repression and radicalism," a cycle that has characterized it since its inception and it is the minatory Mr. Bush who is pushing the dubious and duplicitous program of "freedom" that pushes genuine peace further and ever further away by carving and threatening to carve up even more the state of Israel, the taproot of its own civilization that the West seems ever more intent on uprooting.

The Talmud says the Ark is hidden in a secret passage under the Temple Mount. Jones says that the tunnel actually continues 18 miles southward, and that the Ark was brought through the tunnel to its current resting place in the Judean Desert.
... With the help of an ancient document found in Qumran together with the Dead Sea Scrolls, known as the "Copper Scroll", Dr. Jones is convinced he has pinpointed the location of the Ark of the Covenant.
...
Noahide guru Jones says that the State of Israel is passing through the same biblical straights as the generation that first entered Israel after the exodus from Egypt. "If history repeats itself, the history itself is prophecy," Jones says.
...
Jones calculated the war in 1967 by analyzing the sequence of events in the First Temple Period and transposing them onto the "Third Temple Period" - the period beginning with the Jews' foundation of an independent State in the Land of Israel in 1948. "It fits just like tongue in groove," he says.
I left a lot out of this article. You really should read the whole thing.
"I make known the end from the beginning" - Isaiah 46:10
The events of these Latter Days are indeed concealed (and revealed) in the beginning of Scripture, but I do not believe in a so-called "Third Temple Period."

Next story: The headline read "Hate Message Found in US Koran." No kidding! In related news, Cloud Found in US Sky. I'm glad that the mainstream media is finally waking up to the danger of Islam.
Alas... as you might have guessed, that's not the gist of the story. After clicking to the article, I saw that the full headline is L.A. woman finds hate message in copy of Koran.
A Muslim group on Wednesday demanded a public apology from online bookseller Amazon.com for its part in delivering a used copy of the Koran with the words "Death to all Muslims" scrawled across the inside cover.
Umm, how about taking a look at the printed text of the Koran?
