Stop praising our enemies’ nonexistent prowess

I just read an opinion piece titled, “Is Iran Preparing for a Two-Front War With Israel?” It’s part of the now-standard approach that the press adopted during World War II of granting our enemies a nonexistent prowess in order to sell papers. Bad news is far more popular than good. In the ensuing years, however,…

Projection lets you lie about yourself

Last night I wrote about the accusation that the Israelis “double tap” Palestinian rescue workers, meaning the IDF attacks a target, waits until first responders show up, and then kill them. The night before, I wrote about the phony accusation that an Israeli army officer gave a drink of water to an elderly Palestinian woman…

The happiest man on earth

Thanks to a mysterious woman who has all sorts of skills that make me wonder who she really is, I met the happiest man who ever lived. His name is Pierre Rehov. Someday I hope Mr. Rehov writes a memoir. We’ve had several long discussions by phone; his happiness isn’t the type seen here. If…

Pierre Rehov is actually making TWO movies

Today Pierre Rehov gave me permission to announce that he’s actually making two documentaries at the same time. Both will be released simultaneously. Like the first movie, this one is fully funded. In fact, the reason Mr. Rehov decided to make two movies at the same time was that it was more economical. Since he…

I lied: Pierre Rehov and I are making a movie

On November 9, 2014, I wrote that Pierre Rehov would not make a documentary that included my research into Palestinian hoaxes perpetrated during Operation Protective Edge. I lied. Mr. Rehov actually agreed to make the film, but he asked me to announce that the documentary would not be made. This was to allow his camera…

Leitmotifs

Find me a matching photo of Gaza

Here’s your assignment, all you Jew-haters: Find me a photo taken in Gaza that matches this image of devastation in Deir Ezzour, Syria. This area was hit with just about every weapon in a modern army’s arsenal. First there was an artillery barrage and aerial bombing, and then infantrymen went in and finished the job….

All white men are boring, mediocre actors

For whatever reason, a man named Bill Homewood has become obsessed with my posts about Israel. When Operation Protective Edge ended, I thought Bill went back to whatever he was doing before he began spamming me with Palestinian propaganda. But he’s returned, and now he’s sizzling with rage. Bill taught me that all white men…

A fact-based rebuttal from Opposite World

The Political Director(?) of Huffington Post UK is Mehdi Hasan. He lives in Opposite World, from which he wrote his piece “Debunking Israel’s 11 Main Myths About Gaza, Hamas and War Crimes.” Well, all that energy he puts into directing politics has sapped him of the ability to write elegant headlines and cogent articles.In regard…

Don’t worry: I judge you by the measures you take

Ahmed Yousef has written an opinion piece for the boneheads of the Guardian: “Judge Hamas on the Measures it Takes for its People.” Well, I do judge Hamas by the measures you take, Ahmed. That’s why I find your politico-religious movement absolutely reprehensible. If you were Caucasian American Baptists, how would the world feel about…
