You first said that the JPost was "far, far right." I consider Avigdor Lieberman to be moderately right. His party is almost as compromising as Shas. Try Ya'akov Katz (Ketzaleh) for "far" (i.e. true) right. Baruch Marzel for "far, far" right. Not that there's anything wrong with being right...
The Jerusalem Post hosts a range of views, but overall, it is a secular, center-left mainstream media organization, complete with a Zodiac/astrology page. Israel's "far right" never reads JPost, except with dreading curiosity.
As for "Greater Israel," I did manage to find a JPost column from April entitled Keep Dreaming: The case for a greater Israel. Maybe this is what you're thinking of. But did you read the column? About midway, it reads, "The greater Israel [19th century Zionist visionary Theodor] Herzl envisioned had nothing to do with borders; it had everything to do with morals, ideals and behavior." Moreover, the bottom of the column notes that it was written by a representative of Conservative Judaism, which is a branch of Judaism that tends to be politically center-left. (The word "Conservative" here has nothing to do with politics.)
In their view, should Stuxnet not be handily around to embellish on, they would have to fall back on to their old standby canard of "God's finger" slowing the Iranian centrifuges directly to protect his Jewish children
Trusting in God's protection, in fact, has been a sturdy standby for the State of Israel. One could begin a study of this topic with Israel's victory in the 1967 Six Day War, a modern miracle by all accounts.
Nitpick: The phrase "finger of God" usually has to with one of the following subjects: astronomy (Hubble telescope picture), God's creation of the universe, or God's etching of the Ten Commandments. I'm pretty sure it's not a common phrase in JPost articles.
I wouldn't say "nicely." His rant has a load of f-bombs and other blatantly offensive language. He has a good point, but his manner of delivery makes it unlistenable. (Note to comedians: Cussing isn't funny. Or professional. You come off as a trashy low-life, demeaning both yourself and your audience.)
I decided not to give a hyper-literalistic reading to the text of the above post. Let's try a word.
"Christian" - In this context, it doesn't make sense that the normal definition of "Christian" could apply. What the author really means to tell us that he is a theist who may evolve into a Christian in ~4.5 billion years.
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon ordered the expulsion of thousands of Jewish residents from their homes in Gaza. This was against the will of the people. He denied the country a chance at a referendum on the issue when he saw the polls going against him.
Here's what happened: IDF troops clad in ominous black uniforms, some mounted on horses (as if to purposefully evoke associations with Medieval inquisitions), literally dragged Jewish families, with wailing women and children, out of their homes. Jewish Gazans were bloodied during the destruction, including Member of Knesset Aryeh Eldad, whose head was gashed when he was trampled by a horse-mounted soldier. Entire communities were demolished. A beautiful synagogue was buried under sand. Graves were dug up and relocated. All so that the Palestinian Authority could set up its terror state in the Gaza Strip, aka now Hamastan.
During the 1930s, Jew haters in Europe used to tell Jews to "Go back to Palestine (Israel)!" What could they say in 2005? The Jews were in Israel!!
Here is the web site created by Israelis of the former Jewish communities in Gaza.
It's no coincidence that the expulsion was originally (accidentally?) scheduled for the 9th of Av, then delayed an extra day when the red-faced authorities realized their mistake. It's also not a coincidence that Ariel Sharon very soon afterward fell into a coma, which he is still in today. It's also not a coincidence that the last name of George W. Bush, who had been pushing the Saudi-devised Two-State Solution and then congratulated Sharon on the expulsion, means "to be ashamed" in Hebrew.
At some level, we as scientists trust one another to not fudge things
Well, we have evidence of fudging the data. Confessions of fudging are in the code! From a report by the Science & Public Policy Institute: Climategate: Caught Green-Handed! (PDF) See Page 8, Example 2.
and the peer review process should take care of most of that.
Peer reviewing does nothing for integrity when you ignore the peer reviewers' comments, or you get to choose the reviewers!
It should be noted that "Christian Science" (with capital letters) is the name of a religious sect. It is not really Christian and not especially science-minded.
No, it's just PRE-PAID. And overpaid. And if you didn't pay for your education, that means that the government robbed someone else to pay for it. It's a totally immoral system. How do you socialists sleep at night?
"Pilate summoned the head cohanim (priests), the leaders and the people, and said to them, "You brought this man before me on a charge of subverting the people. I examined him in your presence and did not find the man guilty of the crime you are accusing him of. And neither did Herod, because he sent him back to us. Clearly, he has not done anything that merits the death penalty. Therefore, what I will do is have him flogged and release him." - Luke 23:13-16
The "crime" that was posted on the cross above Yeshua's (Jesus') head was "King of the Jews." That's not a crime. The religious leaders wanted Him dead because they were jealous of Him (His independent, authoritative teaching and wild popularity undermined their positions) and He did not overthrow the yoke of Roman imperialism like they thought a real messiah should've done. He was not a criminal.
Moreover, the innocence of the Messiah is a requirement for being the "Passover Lamb," as Believers call Him. Just as the lamb for the Passover sacrifice had to be examined for four days (according to Torah - Leviticus 23), so was Yeshua examined by the authorities for four days, after which, having been found unblemished/innocent, He was slaughtered on the eve of Passover.
To "young"-earth creationists, what we see here is certainly not "impossible," or improbable. In fact, it is to be expected!
That planet is "impossible" because their "science" is impossible.
Orbital dynamics "settled" science for 400 years? The age of the universe (ballpark figure) had been settled for a lot longer than that until modern, naturalist scientists decided to unsettle it. Look who's doing the backpedaling now... (Not saying they'll return to Genesis for answers; they'll just devise even more wildly contorted naturalistic hypotheses to explain why reality discombobulates their "settled" teachings.)
That video is awesome! Bill Whittle flashes the light of truth on the latest contemptuous dishonesty of the liberal media and educates on the conflict-mongering, anti-America roots of the American Left. It should be required viewing for every American.
I agree with you about the use of "czar" or "tsar." Freedom-loving countries should not use that as a title for a political position. The spelling, in particular, links it to terrible regimes that are anathema to the spirit of the U.S. Constitution.
However, on a geeky note, the etymology of the word branches out to more than just "Caesar." There are many personal titles that are or may be related, and most are positive more often than negative: Sire, Sir, Sieur (Old French) leading to Monsieur (lit. my lord), Senior (Latin; disputed), Kaiser (German; the original pronunciation of "Caesar" in Classical Latin), etc. Most interesting to me is sar, which is a Hebrew word that appears hundreds of times in the Bible. To emphasize a positive use of the word, "Sar Shalom" is a prophetic title for the Messiah (Isaiah 9:6; 9:5 in Tanakh).
By "fulfilling the law" basically Jesus was claiming that he was the messiah that was referenced heavily in the law (which refers to the old testament).
You are right, but Jesus fulfilled Scripture in other ways too. I'm going to take a "rabbi trail" here... In Judaism, to "fulfill" something means to interpret it correctly. This is what Jesus did through the way He lived His life. He full-filled it not only by keeping the commands of the law, but by filling it full of its true meaning.
Moreover, that He fulfilled the law does not mean that we, His followers, are to ignore the law's commandments, which are "holy, just, and good" (Romans 7:12).
For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace. Romans 6:14
Shows that Christians are not bound by the Old Testament laws because Jesus fulfilled them.
Look at what Paul is saying. It's not that keeping the law makes sin your master; rather, legalistic observance of G-d's commands without having understood and received His grace is what makes sin your master.
It should be noted that the ancient Greek language did not have a word for "legalism." There was only this word (in Rom. 6:14, nomon), which is always simplistically rendered as "law" in English.
Look at the context, using another version (CJB):
14 For sin will not have authority over you; because you are not under legalism but under grace. 15 Therefore, what conclusion should we reach? "Let's go on sinning, because we're not under legalism but under grace"? Heaven forbid! 16 Don't you know that if you present yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, then, of the one whom you are obeying, you are slaves - whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to being made righteous? 17 By G-d's grace, you, who were once slaves to sin, obeyed from your heart the pattern of teaching to which you were exposed; 18 and after you had been set free from sin, you became enslaved to righteousness. 19 (I am using popular language because your human nature is so weak.) For just as you used to offer your various parts as slaves to impurity and lawlessness, which led to more lawlessness; so now offer your various parts as slaves to righteousness, which leads to being made holy, set apart for G-d.
Is Paul saying that lawlessness is bad, but keeping the law is also bad? Sounds like a lose/lose situation for humanity. But no; Paul professes, "we confirm/uphold/establish (KJV) the law" (Rom. 3:31) But only a keeping of the law that is grounded in a relationship of trusting faithfulness in G-d and His grace for us. Christians nearly always miss this distinction.
There are several references to where Jesus goes opposes society's norm such as Mark 2:23-28 where Jesus plucked grain on the Sabbath.
He did what was "unlawful" regarding the Sabbath only according to the Pharisaic rabbinical laws. He did not violate G-d's law concerning the Sabbath. He simply held to a less burdensome practice of keeping of Shabbat.
And another instance where he saved a woman from stoning because of adultery*
Here, Jesus was, in fact, going strictly by the Book (Deuteronomy 17):
2 "If there is found among you, within any of your gates [in any city] that the L-RD your G-d gives you, a man or woman who does what the L-RD your G-d sees as wicked,... 4 and it is told to you, or you hear about it; then you are to investigate the matter diligently. If it is true, if it is confirmed that such detestable things are being done in Isra'el; 5 then you are to bring the man or woman who has done this wicked thing t
A lot of the coverage of Obama was prompted by attacks that he was "pallin' around with terrorists" and whatnot. The press investigated, found that the concerns were baseless, and the result was what ammounts to a positive story for Obama.
Hardly. The liberal media essentially swept it under the rug.
The truth is that the further you dig into B.O.'s terrorist/criminal connections, the more you find. We've hardly scratched the surface. The PLO, Hamas, Arab American Action Network, Black Panthers, Weather Underground, ACORN, Nation of Islam, CAIR,... This guy doesn't seem to have any connections that ARE clean! Since college, he's palled around with Islamists, revolutionary communists, anarchists, and "Black Power" racial supremacists. This guy's going to be Commander-In-Chief? B.O. couldn't get clearance to be a security guard at Wal-Mart!
Is there ANYBODY in his circle of associates that IS NICE? Does he have a single friend who flies the Star-Spangled Banner at their house and shoots fireworks on the 4th of July? His wife has no pride in America (unless her husband gets to run the show). His pastor and "mentor" is a venomous Jew-hating bigot and militant white-hating racist.
Challenge for the media: Show me a connection of B.O. that is GOOD for America.
(It is questionable whether the Senate is good for America.;-) )
Let's examine MLK's "I have a dream speech" in light of Obama.
MLK: Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.
Fail.
MLK: We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline.
G** d*** fail.
MLK: I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
This dream has been turned on its head. Barack Obama was elected precisely because of the color of his skin and in spite of the horribly woeful quality of his character: racist, bigoted, militant/thuggish, fraternizing with criminals and terrorists, promoting sexual debauchery, dishonest, phony, vengeful, covetous, classist, subversive, irresponsible, disrespectful, dishonorable, ungrateful, unjust, cold-hearted, infanticidal, self-aggrandizing, arrogant, elitist, ignorant, naïve, impractical, inexperienced, unwise, brainwashed, authoritarian, anti-Constitutional, un-American.
And ultimately, if he WAS a Muslim, that wouldn't really matter. What, that makes him a terrorist?
No, but he has an ongoing, close friendship with an unrepentant, former PLO terrorist, Rashid Khalidi. Barack Obama attends Jew-bashing parties where the State of Israel, in which Arabs have more rights and freedom than in any other country in the Middle East, is called a "racist," "Apartheid" state and suicide/homicide bombings are declared justified.
Obama has been endorsed by Hamas, and Palestinians in Hamas-run Gaza are actively campaigning for him. Islamic Socialist dictator Mu'ammar al-Qadhafi agrees that Obama is a fellow Muslim. (I didn't know they had FOX News in Libya.) Obama himself has referred to "my Muslim faith." Freudian slip of the tongue? And his statement about campaigning in 57 states [of the Islamic Conference]? The self-proclaimed "citizen of the world" is campaigning internationally.
I think that this "Hussein" is kind of like the other "President Hussein" in some respects. They are/were both socialists. Recall that Saddam Hussein's Ba'ath Party is a Socialist party. I believe Obama is a nominal Muslim, basically a secular Arabist. Pan-Arab unity is an important pillar of Arab Socialism. From Obama's book Audacity of Hope: "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." I realize that he was referring to Muslims in the U.S., but it still fits the ideology.
Many Arab (and African) parties are socialistic. It is their way of getting revenge on the former white colonialist overlords. (Of course, they do have legitimate reasons for anger and demanding justice.) Obama is trying to superimpose this foreign paradigm of race-class oppression onto the U.S. by means of the slavery of one and a half centuries ago. As an American who happens to be white, I resent this wave of racist vengeance politics -- i.e. redistribution of wealth of whites/capitalists/Jews* to thugs -- in America, swelling with the hordes of fanatical Obama minions.

See it here: The Expulsion of the Jews from Gush Katif (Gaza)
