I personally believe that there are terrorists among the Iraqi police and it was they who tipped off Al Qaeda operatives to target Berg as a Jew.

Aha! I think you could be on to something there. I hadn't thought of that.

I ask myself the same question. How can any intelligent Jew embrace socialism? Yet there are many of them. I knew a Russian Jew, who converted to Catholicism, and lived in South America. He died several years ago. He was an avid communist with no children. He sent his employees' children to Marxist universities in Chile and elsewhere. He was basically a good man, but because of his wealth, he had a warped sense of reality. For example, he offered to buy my uncles son. Crazy!

My uncle is now a card carrying socialist who hates the US. For some reason, this ridiculously wealthy man, had a mission to spread this ideology in society. Maybe it was guilt? My uncle, a son of one of his employees, is very well educated thanks to this man. South America is now in shambles.

My theory is that this Jewish man, had good intentions and a very idealistic view of socialism. Because of the life he led, I'm sure he somehow envisioned himself among the powerbrokers or leaders in a socialist world. This is, I think, the case with Turner, Soros etc. They think they are doing good, and they have a delusional notion that they will be in power, or have greater power over the "controlled" society.

That full moon's mass can be seen in the swim trunks photo onyx described. He and the Hildebeast are butts of a feather.


LOL! Right.
I knew you knew which photo!

I've always wondered what would happen if Senators Clinton and Kennedy accidentally ran into each other in a Capital hallway. Would the sudden impact of the evil and the darkness result in some sort of cataclysmic event?

Oh, please do not use any word ending in "smic" when it comes to Hillary and Teddy. (extremely obscure humor there)

As I was driving home from work today, I heard the father say "My son died for the sins of George Bush & Donald Rumsfield. The Al Queda people are PROBABLY just as bad".

I know he is grieving, but just think about that. It's incredible to me.

"The family of Nicholas E. Berg challenged American military officials on Wednesday," according to lead paragraph in the Times' story, "insisting that the man beheaded by Islamic terrorists in Iraq had earlier been in the custody of federal officials who should have done more to protect him."

After he was released from custody, didn't American officials offer Berg a plane ride out of Iraq which he turned down?

"Conventional liberal opinion believes that the Abu Ghraib photos are the true meaning of the war, and that Nick Berg is just another victim of callous U.S. policy."

The author is being very kind....actually the liberals are just using the photos in an attempt to torpedo the Bush administration. It is an issue that they believe has enough legs to work....I don't think so. The Democrats want power. Whatever it takes to obtain it will be whipped up by their waterboys in the lamestream media.

The event affords insight.

We are doing battle with two distinct types of religious fundamentalists.

Both have somehow managed to pervert their religion -- Islam and liberalism, respectively -- and actually wage war in the name of their faith.

Their unquestioning faith in Allah (or socialism) defines them. Without their faith, Zarqawi and Michael Berg would amount to nothing.

Until the media-(which helps render our country almost ungovernable)-is brought under control it will only get worse. The media thinks nothing of treason, sedition, slander, libel as long as it sells soap. The media is not a 'beacon of liberty' but a soap selling commercial enterprise without any manner or form of business ethics. In order of preference: don't spend your dollars on any form of media; broader libel and slander suits; government criminal action such as criminal libel, treason or sedition charges; and lastly, direct action by the citizenry such as taking the media creatures out of their offices, stripping them naked and administering a whip,a lash or a knout.

Thanks for the come-back. You are right about those who think that "after the revolution" they and the "intellectual elites" will be in control of us proletariat.

History tells us though that the very first thing that happens is that the Rich and the Intellectuals are the first ones to be liquidated.

Regards,
