Murder and Mayhem in Iraq

By now you have all heard about the brutal attack on the 4 American contractors in Iraq, after which a crowd of Iraqis (including children) dragged the bodies through the street, kicked and stomped on them, and suspended them from a bridge. You have probably already seen the pictures. And unless you are inhuman or [...]

Quote of the Day

If the Israelis killed all the Palestinians the world would care — but only because the Israelis did it. – Glenn Reynolds

Ousting Bush

Watch out President Bush! Islam Online are making your downfall a religious duty. It is our religious duty to unseat Bush and his supporters who let us down; who led America on a war of aggression and took away our basic freedoms and rights guaranteed by the constitution. This applies, even though John Kerry is [...]

April Fool’s Day

Today is April 1st or “April Fool’s Day.” I was considering trying to pull an April Fool’s stunt, but let’s face it – it is so old and cliched. I am, however, on the look-out for other April fool stunts in the blogosphere. Here is a potential one (Parental advisory: This post contains bad language!)

Mr Jackson Goes to Washington

Imagine this scene: Michael Jackson, flanked by his Nation of Islam bodyguards, holding high an Israeli flag, while visiting Capitol Hill. Sounds weird, but it actually happened (hat tip: Jew School). Then again, since when does any Michael Jackson related news not sound weird?

Jew hear About This?">Did Jew hear About This?

Another example of the power of blog: Jew School have helped raise awareness of the fact that the top google result for the word “Jew” is an anti-Semitic website. By urging readers to link to the Wikipedia encyclopedia listing for “Jew”, this link is now in fourth spot, with an eye on no. 1. If [...]

The Root Causes of Terrorism

Greg Sheridan of The Australian gets it right with his op-ed piece Address the root causes of terrorism. His main point: The real root cause of terrorism is the terrorist ideology itself, which although involves a belief in the supremity of Arab culture, has actually led to backward and impoverished Arab societies. Since the war [...]

Bring Back Sundays!

Since moving to Israel from Australia over three years ago, one of the hardest adjustments I have had to make in my lifestyle is the Sunday to Thursday work week. The reason why Israelis do not work on Fridays (or work half-days) is because this is the day that Jews prepare for the Jewish Sabbath, [...]

Judge Idiot

For those of you who have faith in the criminal justice system and want to keep it that way, do not read the following. A judge who demanded to know the name of “the idiot” who granted bail to a serial burglar discovered yesterday he was talking about himself. Northern Territory Supreme Court Justice Dean [...]

The Return of Ram Allah

It seems that more and more sheep are converting to Islam. About a week ago, a lamb was born with what looked like “Allah” spelled out in Arabic on its coat. Now, a raging ram has attacked and killed a man in New South Wales. A 67-year-old man is dead after he and his mate [...]
