Dear Prime Minister Cameron: I’m writing about your threat to cut off twelve British arms export licenses to Israel if hostilities resume. One of my heroes is General William Tecumseh Sherman. He was a very blunt speaker, Prime Minister. What you actually meant is that you’ll cut off arms exports if Israel responds to the…
War IS the answer
August 14, 2014
Since I started writing my posts debunking Pallywood hoaxes, I’ve gotten hundreds of messages from really angry people. They call me a liar, an inhuman monster, a paid Israeli agent, a racist, an Islamophone, a homophobe, an idiot, “unwell,” and lots of other compliments. But not one person has actually told me where I’m wrong…
Pallywood made by non-Palestinians
August 13, 2014
I’d like to thank Christina Dickinson for sending me some great Pallywood made by non-Palestinians. This was a tough nut to crack, in the sense that although I knew the video didn’t show what the International Solidarity Movement claims, it took several hours to find the answer. By the end of this piece, you’ll be…
Now I know what it feels like
August 10, 2014
To be Israeli. No, of course I don’t know what it feels like to be Israeli. Nobody’s shooting rockets at me or trying to kidnap me or murder me. But I know what it feels like to be on the receiving end of “arguments” that are utterly demented, dishonest, and distorted. Since I wrote my…
Islamic State propaganda worse than Pallywood
August 9, 2014
You can judge the quality of a fighting force by the psyops (psychological operations) that it undertakes. Well, Islamic State propaganda is worse than Pallywood. I’ve been saying for a long time the Terrorists Formerly Known as ISIL or ISIS are not as much of a threat as people make them out to be. Now…
I was just kidding, but now…
August 9, 2014
Earlier today I wrote a post about the horrendously dishonest and inept Reuters piece “Ten-year-old Palestinian boy the first casualty of renewed fighting in Gaza.” At the end, I wrote that Salem Salem Salem Salem—the “victim” in the fake Gaza sniper video—was in the funeral procession for Ibrahim Dawawsa. I was just kidding, but a…
Reuters accidentally exposes Hamas Pallywood
August 8, 2014
Reuters has released possibly the worst piece of “journalism” in the history of the human race. First I’ll tell you what’s wrong with it, and then I’ll explain how Reuters accidentally exposed Hamas Pallywood in way that leaves no doubt whatsoever that the reporting from Gaza is being stage managed. You can watch the video…
The lie of Hamas being a “ragtag militia”
August 7, 2014
Recently a cretinous commenter on YouTube took issue with me over my defense of Operation Protective Edge. He must’ve referred to Hamas as a “ragtag militia” forty times. In the radio talk-show business, these sloganeers are known as “seminar callers,” because they’ve been taught what to say. The phrase “ragtag militia” was obviously sent out…
