Sunday's randomly picked quotes:


Hizbollah is not a job, it is not a family. It is a mix of religion, honour, dignity and discipline. It is my life.' (The Guardian)

Ayaan Hirsi Ali lied to obtain Dutch citizenship. Utterly untrustworthy individual. (Commenter Shukri on bobfrom B)

How to be a union boycotter, in 10 easy steps

(1) Insist, again and again and again, that the union is morally obliged to boycott Israel. Explain that boycotting any other country would involve ignoring issues of geopolitical complexity and might send out the wrong message to someone or other.
(2) Flood the UCU activists' list with detailed and sometimes accurate descriptions of Israeli crimes, but preserve complete silence about crimes of far greater magnitude committed by anyone else.
(3) Take care never to acknowledge that Israel has been under murderous attack since its inception, by people who quite often declare their genocidal intentions towards Jews. Explain that these people will treat Jews with exemplary respect once they get power over them.
(4) Sneer if anyone mentions suicide bombing, especially of colleges or universities, or rocket attacks on Israeli schools - these things are of no concern to an academic union.
The rest is on Normblog.

An example of the lucidity and self-awareness of the pro-boycotting mind:

Finally the real victims of racism today, that is almost a par with the anti-semtism of the 20/30s are not Jews, but Muslims and in my experience those who attack me from the right by claiming I am anti-semitic for wishing to see the end of the State of Israel, are rarely to be seen actually confronting racism and Fascism on the streets and where we live to make sure it cannot develop against anyone, regardless of religion or lack of. I'm not suggesting that this fits with your background as I don't know about that, but that is my experience.

I prove my commitment to anti-semitism by action.

Elder of Ziyon presents a moron:



The head of the UN nuclear monitoring agency on Friday
criticized the US for not giving his organization intelligence information
sooner on what Washington says was a nuclear reactor in Syria being built
secretly by North Korea.


IAEA Director General Mohamed El Baradei also chastised
Israel for bombing the site seven months ago, in a statement whose strong
language reflected his anger at being kept out of the picture for so long.



Yes, we all know how effective he would have been in stopping Syrian nukes.

It would be inconsistent for Carter not to hate Jews and Israel, just as he hates America and Conservative Christians.. (Sultan Knish)
