Ulysses G. Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Is The West Bank just a step in Israels final solution for the arabs living there? Is it a waiting station? Next stop=Jordan? Do Israel hope that the arabs will become Jordanian citizens eventually? Israel could have easily gotten rid of the Arabs in 1948. Many of them had already left and many willingly. Instead, Israel asked them to stay and become solid citizens. Of course, Israel's patience might be running out by now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Seastallion Posted March 24, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2015 Here is a CNN interview on the Netanyahu flap with Senator John McCain (R-AZ). He offers some good advice to the community organizer. All you Islamic Firsters won't like it so turn your heads and don't look. I don't know any Islamic Firsters, especially in this forum. Well, there are certainly no such thing as "Israel firsters", but that does not stop you from using the term in an inordinate number of posts. He just turned some rather foolish rhetoric around on you. I never said who was an "Islamic Firster" now did I. There are quite a few I would consider if forced to make a list. By the same token, UG points out there are some that like to use "Israeli Firster".

Any of those quotes mine? I'm sure you spent a lot of time looking. He himself can't come up with any to back up his gross lie, and he's obviously not man enough to retract and apologise. You did imply it was me by responding to me.....but that's OK, I won't press the point as you are struggling. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Publicus Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 <<snip>> Fox Newz is the most distrusted network of its kind in the United States. Very few respectable public figures appear there for a serious purpose. This fact and reality will be difficult in the extreme for the far out right to accept because the narrative for so long has been in the opposite direction. Read this however to see the data each way, both ways, trusted and distrusted. Poll: Fox Is the Least-Trusted Name in News By Allison Brito, The National Memo ccording to a Public Policy Polling report released on Wednesday, Fox News is now the least-trusted name in news. http://readersupportednews.org/news-section2/317-65/15927-poll-fox-is-the-least-trusted-name-in-news <<snip>> Since you bring up "trusted" vs. "least-trusted"... The survey performed by a Public Policy Polling report you linked to is dated...February 6, 2013. The article you linked to is dated...February 8, 2013.Poll: Fox Is the Least-Trusted Name in NewsBy Allison Brito, The National Memo 08 Febuary 13 That recent one is consistent with this present one: Poll: Fox News /Limblah - Least Trusted News Sources 03-10-2015 You are in denial. Severe withdrawal and denial as you are forced to hold the fort alone here for the moment. Seriously flailing. Is it impossible for you to simply say..."Oops. I screwed up."? Talk about flailing!!! The post is a hallucination. The 2013 survey by the highly respected polling organization Public Policy Polling and the March 2015 survey by the Pew Research Center are completely consistent in respect of Fox Newz, and in many other respects. In short, the needle has moved against Fox Newz. The fact goes so completely against the self-pleasing and long standing right wing narrative that the rightists must needs be deny it. That can't be done successfully or credibly, however. Spinning a scheme of denial solves nothing and exposes the spinners as living in their own world. The far out right deniers trying to say otherwise is the standard approach of failing to match reality with the extremist viewpoints and agenda. It will take a while for the right to get a grip on changing realities, if it can or ever does. Good luck with that over and out there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post up-country_sinclair Posted March 24, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2015 The good news is that this massive rift between The United States and Israel will outlast the Obama and Netanyahu administrations. Many members of the State Department and intelligence gathering organizations are disgusted by Israel's behavior over the last couple of years, and it will likely be impossible for the relationship to return to what it once was. I'm referring to the career, mid-level diplomats and analysts (not political appointees) who will be working within the US Federal government for 20 or 30 years before they retire. These people are not going to forget how Israel disrupted US foreign policy, how they publicly and purposefully embarrassed the Secretary of State, how they spied on US negotiations with Iran and then used the intelligence to sabotage the potential agreements with third parties. http://www.wsj.com/article_email/israel-spied-on-iran-talks-1427164201-lMyQjAxMTA1MTI0MzIyNDM0Wj Additionally, Israel has now become a partisan issue. This was unthinkable even 5 years ago. http://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-an-increasingly-partisan-issue-says-reform-head/ Furthermore, the younger generations in the US don't blindly support Israel like their parents and grandparents did. For those under 30, more blame Israel than Hamas for the violence. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2014/07/29/young-americans-take-a-dim-view-of-israels-actions/ Thanks to Netanyahu, Israel has become a policy/security issue, a partisan divide and generational gap for the first time in the US.

You have my post above in which I said, and I will say again, the 2013 survey findings by the highly reputable Public Policy Polling group, and the March 2015 findings of the highly reputable Pew Research Center, are consistent concerning Fox Newz. The first poll's finding raised the question of a trend away from the past survey findings. The second poll released earlier this month indicates the first finding in 2013 was not an outlier poll, because the findings were repeated in this month's poll report. Another poll with the same or similar findings will strongly suggesting a trend has been identified as occurring in fact and in reality. The wrongheaded political case building against my links does not change the facts on the ground or in my posts because all of the three are consistent. So face up to the findings, the data, the obvious. Fox Newz is the most distrusted news organization in the business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition: the King of Jordan was in Washington when his pilot was burned alive and did he even get anyone to acknowledge this from the obama administration? Jordan is, the existing Palestinian state, and until Ararat was deported and his people ethnically cleansed both in Jordan and then Kuwait, he was intending to destabilize the country and take it over, He was exiled to Tunis I believe but sooner stirred up trouble in Lebanon 10,000/ Palestinians cleaned by Jordan, 10,000 more had their hands cut off by Kuwait for raping and stealing under saddams occupation You talk about ethnic cleansing in Israel as propagandists will, but without facts its just more whining hoping someone will "rise up" on the Jewish state Here is one more fact; Netanyahu had 18 seats in his last government Now he has 30 The election was held, in Israel not in the editor lounge of the washington post/or new York times Netanyahu is popular with Saudi Arabia Obama is not Netanyahu is popular with Egypt Obama is not Netanyahu is popular in Lebanon Obama doesn't even know where that is And most of all Netanyahu is popular with most military branches of the US, and Obama is not 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose though it's much less treasonous to be an Islamic terrorist firster though, eh? I can't imagine any American on here putting Israel ahead of the US. Obama's a different story and it isn't treasonous to dislike or speak out against a POTUS. If you're an American with an understanding of the First Amendment then you just allow people to disagree regarding Israel and Hamas. Yeah, Hamas runs the joint and that's a real problem. Some of us are dumbfounded how people can keep supporting Islamic terrorists or even people who vote them into power. Hamas is not going to be allowed to form a state right up against Israel. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is offset by the large number -- 44 percent -- who say they do trust Fox News. Paradoxically, Fox is simultaneously one of the least and most trusted news sources in America, reflecting the sharp differences in partisan attitudes about the network. Overall, four of the top five least-trusted news outlets have a strong conservative lean: Limbaugh, Fox News, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity. MSNBC rounds out the list. The most trusted news outlets, on the other hand, tend to be major TV networks: CNN, NBC News, ABC News, CBS News, with Fox at No. 5. Pew Research Center just recently found Trust and Distrust comparisons as ranked accordingly,1st through 5th, among a couple of dozen news and public affairs organizations as per the links provided:: 1) Limbaugh............12%....39% 2) Fox News............44%....37% 3) Glenn Beck Program......10%.....24% 4) MSNBC..........38%.....22% 5) Sean Hannity Show..........12%.....21% http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2014/10/21/rush-limbaugh-is-americas-least-trusted-n... http://community.aarp.org/t5/Politics-Current-Events/Poll-Fox-News-Limblah-Least-Trusted-News-Sources/td-p/1544842 Read and weep. I am quoting yet again your original post with the two polls. That is what you claimed. Now you come back in an attempt to spin your mistake and make the following ridiculous assertion in post number 308: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ " You have my post above in which I said, and I will say again, the 2013 survey findings by the highly reputable Public Policy Polling group, and the March 2015 findings of the highly reputable Pew Research Center, are consistent concerning Fox Newz.

Asiantravel Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 By shifting the final decision regarding the Iran nuclear issue to the United Nations (because after all they are a world wide threat according to Netanyahu ) I think Obama will have achieved a diplomatic and political coup that will far eclipse Obama care or anything else during his Presidency. He would have contributed to world peace instead of letting a handful of warmongering neocons in Washington being the sole arbiters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your original post was simply a mistake. You just didn't realize the first poll was two years old. Now you are prevaricating...plain and simple Wrong, wrong, wrong. Also imprudent and impudent in its personal nature. I do not need to prove beans to you or to any other right wing denier who lives in his world of constant and bent extremes. I have stated to you more than once at this thread that I was and am aware of the news articles and the links to them that I posted above. I have discussed the fact, yet here it unnecessarily and excessively continues. Certain posters have in the past wrongheadedly made the same claims on other occasions about other posts I'd made to other threads in respect of other topics, to include Fox Newz. I reiterated on each occasion then, and I state again now, that in every instance, I know what I posted at the time I'd made the posts and what is in the links and news sources I cited. I have also made in my posts in this matter, as a central point, that the reactionary right wingers have for years boasted that Fox Newz is the most watched and most trusted public affairs organization of its kind, and that the extreme right has not only made the fact both a point of ideological pride, but the far right has also made it a point of identity in their unrelenting right wing extremist lives. The links I have provided in this matter, and the articles at the links, are materials I read before I chose them to post. I know what I posted, what about the linked articles I chose to include in my post, and what about the articles I chose to exclude from the post. Indeed, anyone interested enuff in reading the linked articles can see completely and in full the articles at the links. So there is nothing about my links to attempt to hide, avoid, or to try to obscure. I have in fact been aware for a long time at TVF that a certain obsessive compulsive poster will read each and every link I provide, to include examining every comma, phrase, clause, paragraph, quotation, number to include all data at the link, date, time, place, the persons named and/or quoted at the link and so on and so on. It is perhaps what could be called posting proctology. The sometimes anal posts to the contrary are, well, to the contrary. The anal posts we are witnessing reflect the fact a number of the right extremists cannot accept the fact Fox Newz is simultaneously the most distrusted public affairs organization of its kind. Faux Newz is simultaneously the most trusted by the far right, the most distrusted by those who are not the hard core political right. Some among the hard core right cannot accept the facts and the reality so they must compulsively try to attack and to seek to lash out at the local messenger. A certain right wing poster of older years is particularly bent out of shape about the new reality and, indeed, by all of the new realities of contemporary life. I also get a certain satisfaction in making certain obsessive compulsive and bent posters wade through extended posts that are, in my approach to dem guyz, decidedly unpithy.

What will Obama say? http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-32053999 Rocket and mortar attacks by Palestinian militant groups during last summer's conflict in Gaza amounted to war crimes, Amnesty International says. Militants displayed a "flagrant disregard" for the lives of civilians during the 50-day war, a report found. Six civilians in Israel and 13 Palestinians are believed to have been killed as a result of such attacks. His one sided attack on Netanyahu is going to backfire on him. Slowly Obama's options are closing on him. All he has left is trying to make a weak agreement with Iran not to build the bomb. Not having much luck with that, no matter how far he bends over to accommodate Iran. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
