US State Dept: Israel "can't be found and may have moved"

While visiting the State Department's official website, curious to see if Hillary or Obama would post a Good Friday/Passover message to the Jewish community, as he is so fond of recognizing other foreign national holidays, I clicked onto the "Countries & Regions" tab at the top, a list of search options drop down, the first is the "A-Z List of Countries and Regions." I clicked on it, then clicked 'I' for Israel. It took a while, then came the headline:

"We’re sorry. That page can’t be found and may have moved" IN BOLD RED LETTERS.

So, I then clicked on random countries, friends & enemies of the US -- no such problem with any of them. Country information, map and any related state department news/press all available.

Then I manually typed in Israel in the 'search the site' box -- and waited and waited, and then a page popped up that was an overlay of other pages. It was basically unreadable. (Thanks to Merri)

But the State Department's sire for the Fakestinians in Jerusalem is working just fine, thankyouverymuch: US State Department: Jerusalem for Islam UPDATED: It's "the de-facto “embassy” to the Palestinians in the West bank and Gaza.

Well, NOW we know for sure where the evil one stands.

I never thought I would live to see this day.

I really thought you-know-who was too much of a “lightweight” to be the antichrist, but in the light of recent events, I am not so sure.

No, they’re not there...Herod didn’t plan for all possible outcomes. Lesson learned.

Look harder. LOL

The State Department has been a cesspool of Jew-haters for years and years.

I needed to hire an in-house lawyer recently and interviewed a local kid (who was 30, but to me, a kid) who had been at a big law firm, then the State Department for years. Married a local girl and wanted to move back home.

Very smart; knew a lot about international taxation which is increasingly important to me.

Anyway, I am a big dumb redneck guy. Not remotely Jewish.

I started talking about the State Department and we got on the topic of Israel.

He dumped all over Israel and started doing this “just between you and me, everyone knows we gotta do something about the Jews” business. Pretty obvious he was comfortable making these observations.

I politely listened and then canceled our dinner plans (it was an all-day interview) and sent him to dinner with his wife.

(I had to watch American Idol. Important stuff.)

I thought for sure this must have been an “April Fool’s” joke, but it’s true.

How to explain this? Anyone? ...anyone?

The de facto embassy? That probably means that Hamas will soon blow it up.

No need to call them “Fakestinians”. The word “Palestinian” comes from the Hebrew “Plishtim,” which, it so happens, comes from the Hebrew word “polash,” which means “invade”.

The etymology is just toooo gooood.
