Israelis vote for Socialists and Capitulators

Yes, Israel has delivered itself into the hands of the bufoons Peretz and Olmert; Peretz thinks the way forward is to reverse the free-market reforms of Netanyahu, create as many labour restrictions as possible so that we'll have even more unemployment and hence even more people claiming state benefits (which will obviously have to be increased because Israel doesn't spend enough on them already) and increase public spending as much as possible.

Olmert thinks the way forward is to run away from terrorists and create a situation akin to the northern border with Lebanon after the unilateral withdrawal there, where Hizballah continues its campaign of armed incursions, missile strikes and attempted kidnappings against Israel. Clearly, Olmert thinks such a situation is desirable for Israel's future borders with whatever terorrist infested, War-Lord controlled state the Palestinians will ever manage to form. Of course the wonderful thing about unilateralism is the extent of guranatees and controls you can demand from your enemy, i.e. none.

So lets all look forward to the day after Israel's unilateral retreat when the "State of Palestine" will be born as a ready-made failed state which will resemble something like Somalia and run for hundreds of kilometres along Israel's borders and will most likely subvert the original Palestinian state, Jordan, and form a Super terrorist-state to launch the Islamists/Jihadists/Islamo-Fascists ultimate goal of wiping Israel off the face of the map and throwing all the Jews into the sea.

Yay!

(I'm in a pessimistic mood tonight, if you hadn't noticed).

Scary Resemblance!

Speaking of Jack Straw,is it just me (and Adam), or does the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs of the United Kingdom bear a striking resemblance to the Psammead from the BBC's TV series, Five Chilren and It? Send me your thoughts, plus any other amusing lookalikes.

You tell 'em Roger!

I'm outraged. I'm furious, I'm livid. Palestinian anti-Israel activists have now stooped as low as they could go in my opinion. They tried to stop me being able to go and hear Roger Waters playing live in Tel Aviv. Various nefarious Palestinian groups have been trying to foist their racist views on Roger Waters, songwriter, singer and bassist of Pink Floyd. They told him not to come and play at a concert in Tel Aviv because of course every single Israeli, down to the last one, opresses Palestinians and steals their land. In response to their appeals Waters said "I am happy to play to anybody who believes in peace. I don't discriminate between any of my fans, wherever they live. Being an Israeli does not disbar from being a human being". In your face chief activist Sliman Manour, I'm booking my tickets right now!!!

Come and Have a Go If You Think You're Hard Enough!!!

Jack Straw, the rather unimpressive, diminutive, short, snivelling and unstatesman-like Foreign Minister of the United Kingdom thinks that when he's sorted out Iran's nuclear weapons programme (more on that later) he'll take care of Israel's nukes. Really, Jack, why don't you give it a try? What you gonna do, make grammatically poor speeches about Israel and how its possesion of nuclear weapons upsets stability in the region? I say this: Israel has more of a right to WMD than the U.K. Who denies England's right to exist? Who threatens to throw the English into the sea or wipe England off the map?

The other amusing thing about his statement is when he said "We have ensured over the last few years that two of the four countries [in the Middle East] which posed a nuclear threat, Libya and Iraq, have had their nuclear weapons removed". Come again Jack? The West had no clue of the extent of Libya's nuclear programme and Tripoli came clean for a whole host of reasons which had nothing to do with Jack Straw, Tony Blair or Her Majesty's Government whatsoever. And Iraq!?!?! That is funny! Just to remind you Jack, Israel took care of Iraq's nuclear programme in 1981 and any vestige of their programme was dismantled way before British troops got anywhere near their cushdy peace keeping activities in southern Iraq. Finally, let me say that when the slurry farm hits the wind turbine and someone needs to step up to the plate and take care of Iran's nukes who's it going to be? I doubt very much it will be Jack with his sincere demeanour(or is it constipation?) and the British. Rather, I suspect, it will be that small country on the Mediterranean coast, surrounded by enemies but indefatigable in its refusal to let others dictate the fate of the worlds only Jewish state.

Caption Competition ii

Ok, you know the drill, post the wittiest comment you can think of in the comments box and win...well, not much admitedly, but everyone who reads the blog will think you're very amusing and cool, which, coming to think about it, might not be so many people, but you have to start somewhere right? (Hat Tip to David for the picture)

Kidding Around!!!!!!!

Here's an interesting piece from the BBC...

A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his "wife", after he was caught having sex with the animal.

The goat's owner, Mr Alifi, said he surprised the man with his goat and took him to a council of elders. They ordered the man, Mr Tombe, to pay a dowry of 15,000 Sudanese dinars ($50) to Mr Alifi. "We have given him the goat, and as far as we know they are still together," Mr Alifi said. Mr Alifi, Hai Malakal in Upper Nile State, told the Juba Post newspaper that he heard a loud noise around midnight on 13 February and immediately rushed outside to find Mr Tombe with his goat. "When I asked him: 'What are you doing there?', he fell off the back of the goat, so I captured and tied him up". Mr Alifi then called elders to decide how to deal with the case. "They said I should not take him to the police, but rather let him pay a dowry for my goat because he used it as his wife," Mr Alifi told the newspaper.

The wedding list is at Ahmed, Ahmed & Ahmed, Livestock Supplies, apparently the milking stool still hasn't gone.

In Praise of Putin

Mr. “I killed 200,000 of my own citizens and was the first ruler to fire ballistic missiles at one of his own cities”, Vlad “the Disappearer” Putin, is currently hosting the genocidal wannabees, Hamas, in Moscow, no doubt plying them with ample supplies ofsausages and vodka. One may have thought that in light of Russia’s own struggle with Islamist terrorism, Putin may have thought twice before rolling out the green carpet for Meshaal, Haniya, et al. But, no, quite in keeping with a man who sells Iran one of the most advanced anti-aircraft missiles defence systems in the world , Putin has extended his warm hand of friendship in his continued, pathetic and cynical attempts to revive Russian influence in global affairs. Naturally, those renowned military strategists and lovers of Israel, the French, are in full support of Moscow’s terrorist appeasement policies.

And the Winner is...

The Winner of the Caption Competition goes to...drum role...trumpet fanfare...wait for it,

Adam Ross!!! for his ever-so witty look-a-like comparison of the suave debonair mass murderer Khaled Meshaal with the grumpy chip-off-the-old-block, snooker player and commentator John Virgo pictured in this post. Now, I know some people are going to cry foul and accusations of nepotism are bound to abound. However, I must insist there was absolutely no hanky-panky and I was certainly not enticed by offers to clean the chulent pot. Adam will be receiving shortly his grand prize...da da dah...some Cadbury's Fruit and Nut, a highly prized commodity in short supply in this neck of the woods. Well Done Adam.

And now, an appeal: please send me by electronic mail any pictures with the potential to provide merriment and amusement and I will post them as the object of the week's caption competition.
