1. Norman Finkelstein’s Sparsely Attended pro-Palestine Rally in NYC Leads to Arrests
(For those unfamiliar with estimado Finkelstein, he is an errand boy for Noam Chomsky and is most famous for an interview he did with a European media outlet in which he strutted around doing a ‘Roman salute’ to show his contempt of Israel and a large percentage of Jewish people)
Twenty to thirty people were arrested “for Hamas” today at midday in New York City. They lay down in the street opposite the Israeli Mission to the United Nations and blocked traffic for miles around. They chanted nothing and simply lay there in silence. The police asked them to get up—and thirty people did so—but when the remaining lie-in protestors refused to do so, the police arrested them.
Their leader was none other than Norman Finkelstein,” the known and proud supporter of Hamas and Hezbollah, a man who defends their right to target Israeli civilians.” Finkelstein is the troubled and troublesome Jewish anti-Zionist activist and author who is also the son of Holocaust survivors.

(CNN) — A doctor who was on the front lines fighting the Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone has died from complications of the disease, Doctors Without Borders said Tuesday.
3. Ebola outbreak: Liberia suspends football
There was a risk of infection because football is a contact sport, the football association said. The number of people killed by the virus in West Africa has now reached 672, according to new UN figures.
4. Ebola outbreak: Asky bans flights in West Africa
A major West African airline has stopped flying to Liberia and Sierra Leone amid growing concern about the spread of the deadly Ebola virus. Asky said it took the decision to keep “its passengers and staff safe during this unsettling time”.
(Could be a good excuse for Malaysian airlines to take a break as well)
The decision to leave their colleague alone in the hands of these barbarians was probably taken by leaders inside the police department. What I heard from a usually well-informed source is that the quickest way to make a career inside the police force is to be pro-multicultural and pro-appeasement, and to avoid riots at all cost.
6. Transcript of Netanyahu – Obama phone call leaked to Israeli media?
(I believe this is what it claims to be, because it is perfectly consistent with all of Obama’s foreign policy actions since day 1)

Hebrew transcript of Obama and Netanyahu’s phone call
Israel’s Channel 1 publishes a Hebrew transcript of a portion of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Barack Obama’s telephone conversation Sunday, in which Obama is insistent that Israel unilaterally halt all military activities in the Gaza Strip.
The following is an English translation of the Hebrew account of the talk given in the report:
Barack Obama: I demand that Israel agrees to an immediate, unilateral ceasefire and halt all offensive activities, in particular airstrikes.
Benjamin Netanyahu: And what will Israel receive in exchange for a ceasefire?
BO: I believe that Hamas will cease its rocket fire — silence will be met with silence.
Thank you Wrath of Khan, Yucki, Nicolai Sennels, M, many more. Stand by. I think the ISIL video may make waves soon.
I see Obama’s working hard again; really getting into his job. These various behind-the-scenes photographs reveal, in my estimation, the work ethic and mindset of the man. He can hardly be bothered, and he’d surely prefer to be on the golf course while the entire world is in flames.
Looks more like an actor awaiting his script.
At times I wonder how much he does is his idea and how much is Bill Ayers idea.
I believe that Hamas will cease its rocket fire — silence will be met with silence.
I rather think this ‘transcript’ is done in fun as there are too many in-house jokes at the expense of The Left in it; but silence will be met with silence, is hilarious.
.
Silence will be met with silence. How Arab of him.
The Israelis don’t want silence.
They want stability and to destroy Hamas’ aggressive capabilities.
You, Mr. President, obviously want something different.
You want to be Caliph in 2016.
Or sooner
Finkelswine is a demented creature. A while ago there was a report saying he realised that the Arabs don’t want peace, they just want to destroy Israel. It seems no he’s back to where he started. Unfortunately, there are quite a few Jewish loons out there, Anna Baltzer is another one…..

Meant to say this is ‘what’ it claims to be?
I agree with that.
Yes. I have been very distracted today trying to manage a number of projects at once. I will fix that.

I refuse to watch Norman Finkelstein in action for fear of putting my blood pressure up at around 200/160 and bringing on a gigantic vascular event. Marxism has nothing to do with power to the people or the means of production and everything to do with just poking a stick into the spokes as often and as hard as you can, for no other reason than to piss people off. Bill Ayers is the same way…so is Noam Chomsky. I think they’re mad at their fathers or something…
They think they have to totally destroy the west before they can create their socialist “utopia”, which will be a neo-feudal society with them as the Royals and Nobles.
