Venezuela fall back on a reliable scapegoat(Going after the Jews)

I picked an exciting week to visit Venezuela. The night before my arrival, the regime seized the country’s largest shopping mall. The day after, Israeli authorities disclosed that a recently intercepted shipment of missiles to Hezbollah had originated in Venezuela.

These two dissimilar events are importantly related. The seized mall belonged to one of Venezuela’s wealthiest Jewish families. Following an armed attack on the country’s most visible synagogue in January 2009, the seizure sent a strong message: None of you are safe.

About a month ago, my 2 1/2 year old daughter Cassidy was working very hard on figuring out how to take her clothes off. One evening she disappeared into the bedroom, only to come bursting out a few minutes later, buck naked and arms flung wide, explaining: “I escaped my clothes!” My wife and I, of course, cracked up. But just to be sure we understood, she added, still gleeful, “Escape means free!” And then she danced.

Cassidy has never watched a TV show in her young life. It’s taken some doing, but so far, as best I can tell, she has escaped the clutches of corporations that want to emblazon their logos into her mind and instill a passionate desire for their products in her heart. But I am not naïve. I know we, my wife, Cassidy’s community, and I, have some monumental challenges ahead if we are to protect her from the marketing deluge she will surely face. I also know we cannot do it alone – that our society will have to change in fundamental ways if she is to fully escape its commercial indoctrination.

Typical Left Wing, Berkeley psychobabble whack-job

so the airwaves fill with attacks on “criminal Zionists” and the country’s walls are suddenly daubed with slogans like this which I saw yesterday under a spraypainted Star of David: “The Jews are the cause of all our misery...

I'd say that's a pretty open attack on the Jews. Don't forget that Hugo is a bosom buddy of Ahmadinejad. And Bambi is their boot-licker.

Obviously your God is their God, and I’m pretty sure their God doesn’t want them to kill people and blow up airplanes.

The same (minus the airplanes reference) could be said of the Caananites, but they still passed their children through the fire; and utilized both male & female temple prostitutes in their Baal 'worship', etc.

You are right, though; but, their god, Allah, which they worship, does want them to kill and blow up airplanes.

“EVERY Persian rug is made with a deliberate flaw, as only allah can create something perfect. To even attempt to do so is blasphemous.”

Is that also the reason they don’t like music? Those Taliban wackos had a thing against kite-flying, too.

The message is, Chavez is going to kill all Jews in Venezuela, Israel, and anywhere else he can reach. Thanks spyone.

Meanwhile, the ADL goes after Rush Limbaugh, like a bunch of runts in a bar picking a fight with the nice-looking guy because they are so afraid of those who really will stomp them.

Chavez better watch it.

I hear America supplied the Israelis with the same earthquake causing technology the US used in Haiti.
