Israeli TV News Campaigning Against Bibi

If you watch Israeli television news, you'd think that Israel was the worst country in the world. There seems to be street protests and riots all over all the time.

According to the news:

• You'd think that Israel was the most racist country in the world.
• The Israeli Government hires cruel, sadistic childminders.
• Price of real estate can be controlled by the government.
• Everything can be remedied by the government if the correct people are elected to the Knesset.
• OBVIOUSLY IT'S BIBI'S FAULT!

I am using pictures of the so-called anti-racist protests to illustrate this post, because it's very clear that white agent provocateurs have been leading the movement/riots. They began with the death of an Israeli of the Jewish Ethiopian community by an off-duty policeman. The media has been ignoring the fact that all the evidence shows is that the policeman and his family had been in danger, and the death was totally accidental. The orchestrated violence, anti-police and anti-government acts did not come initially from the community. They are being led by white Leftists. Follow the money.

Although early childhood care, daycare centers have their problems, the solution is far from simple. Who's going to enforce better workers? Those loud, nasty-mouthed demonstrators? Around the country there's a terrible shortage of people willing to work as caregivers. It's hard work, and the pay is low. Even if there are cameras all over, how could that help? Who's going to look at the films? Men hoping to see breastfeeding mothers? And no matter how carefully the "authorities" are in supervising official daycare centers, there will still be people who prefer sending to the unofficial ones.

And lastly, for now, about the high price in housing. The principle is Supply and Demand, which exists all over the world. Some of the repeated news items I caught on television told of hard to believe housing rip-offs in Tel Aviv. In one case, what must be a humongous apartment was divided into fifteen 15 rooms, which people rented individually for an outrageous sum. To make it even less believable, they share the one kitchen. I can't really imagine anyone living like that; maybe this is office space. Besides that, nobody forces anyone to shell out large sums for small spaces, unless the people have the money and don't care about the space. That's what Supply and Demand is all about.

Every day and night, newscasts concentrate on how terrible it is to live here in Israel. Considering that we're having elections again in a few weeks, and it's no secret that the media hates Bibi, I'm convinced that they're working hard to galvanize the votes for anyone but Bibi.

More Hypocrisy from the Israeli Left

Tonight on the television news, there was a report about how even though there's a shortage of workers willing to be aides in afternoon programs for preschoolers and other young children, school security refuses to allow Arabs to take the jobs.

My mind goes back to what an Arab told me many years ago. Her family davka lived in a Jewish-Arab community for idealistic reasons. The program we were both in had Israeli Jews of all political stripes and her, the only Arab. After awhile, she admitted that she felt more comfortable with those of us who lived on yishuvim and were unapologetically on the Israeli political Right. She had been getting rather disillusioned with Leftists. She said that her Jewish neighbors didn't like their children to be exposed to the Arab preschool and teaching staff. They didn't want their children to have even a trace of an Arab accent. And even though she considered herself to be a loyal patriotic Israeli, the Leftists in our group ignored her.

Another point that kept coming up in my mind was that the same people who wanted Arabs to care for Jewish children and insisted that it was racist to forbid it, don't consider themselves racist for insisting that Jews shouldn't live in Arab neighborhoods. Of course they have no problem with Arabs in Jewish neighborhoods...

Europe's Rapidly Changing Demographics, Brexit...

As usual, Dry Bones, hit the nail on the head perfectly.

Know Your Islamophobes

The full story:

BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's interior minister has warned that the country is home to more than 500 Islamic militants who could be capable of carrying out assaults on their own or as members of "hit teams." Speaking in an interview with Bild newspaper, Thomas de Maiziere said there were currently at least 520 "potential attackers" in the country, which has been on edge since two Islamic State-inspired attacks in July. He said another 360 "relevant" people were known to police because of their close proximity to the potential attackers.

Many Germans fear that fighters belonging to the Islamic State jihadist group could have slipped into Germany with the roughly one million of refugees from Syria, North Africa and Asia who arrived last year. "The terror threat now stems from foreign hit teams as well as fanatical lone wolves in Germany," de Maiziere said in the interview ahead of the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks in the United States, which were partly coordinated from Germany."The hit teams are secretly smuggled into Europe and prepare their actions without being noticed, as we saw with the attacks in Paris and Brussels," he added. "But it's even more difficult to uncover the fanatical lone wolves. Unfortunately, there is a real and present danger from both threats."

He said security authorities were doing everything possible to monitor "the potential terrorists" and noted that there have been more investigations and arrests this year. Despite their efforts, he said, "the authorities are assuming there are undiscovered lone wolf terrorists out there."

Germany had until July been spared the kind of militant attacks suffered by neighboring France and Belgium. But in late July, Islamic State claimed two attacks -- on a train near Wuerzburg and at a music festival in Ansbach -- in which asylum-seekers wounded 20 people in total. The anti-immigrant party Alternative for Germany (AfD) has seized on the attacks to criticize Chancellor Angela Merkel's migrant policies.

A friend's grandchildren had been attending British local/neighborhood schools and reported that unlike when she was growing up, the classroom demographics was far from the white Anglican, with a smattering of Jews. Britain, which has been absorbing all sorts of immigrants/newcomers from the Commonwealth and all sorts of migrants from the European Union and refugees from all over during the past half century, is extremely different from what it had been. Today's classes are a total mix of religions a cultures, multiculturalism.

Traditionally Great Britain has felt itself protected by the English Channel, but modern laws, treaties and transportation had taken down that barrier. And the British had kept its own currency, even during the honeymoon years of its membership in the EU, like a married couple, keeping the bachelor pads. No doubt that the recent terror attacks in France and Belgium, and the reports of rapes etc. in areas full of refugees, have convinced the British to divorce Europe.

Is this racism or pragmatism? What do you think?

"Racism:" Two Way Street

A few days ago, I got a lot of flack on facebook for describing the TSA officers who treated me badly:

• one pushed me instead of speaking clearly
• the other was verbally abusive, not allowing me eye-contact with my valuables, as she gave me a "pat-down"

Both of the women were black and heavy. If they had been described as blondes, asians or red-heads and petite nobody would have cared. But there were some really nasty comments against me, just because I didn't leave them as vague "stick-figures."

Whenever there's an "incident" in which a white shoots a black, those descriptions are accepted:

The U.S. Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into the fatal police shooting of a black man in Louisiana's capital, the state's governor said on Thursday, as two deadly encounters between law enforcement and black men triggered protests in the United States.
The probe comes as community leaders in Baton Rouge urged authorities to conduct a full-scale criminal probe of two white police officers over the slaying of Alton Sterling, 37, on Tuesday. (Reuters)

Of course, and I'm not denying it, the police look awful and most probably made a very bad call. But don't forget that the victim, also, made a mistake, a fatal one. These short of shootings happen quite often when people want to take out their "papers,"and the police mistakenly think they are pulling out a weapon. So the best thing is to just stand with hands raised and tell the authorities where to find identification/license etc.

But calling me a racist for giving a physical description of the TSA officers who treated me badly/incorrectly  is so much like those who insist that those who don't support Obama are racist or those who don't support Hillary are anti-women/sexist. Looking at Obama's or Hillary's experience, character, platform etc and making a decision based on that and not their color, sex, and so on, is racist/sexist. There's no moral superiority in saying:

"It's time for a woman president. We are behind the times," (Newsday)

If that's the main theme, than it's totally sexist.

Voting for Hillary because She's a Woman is SEXIST!

Yes, just like I kept saying that voting and supporting Barack Hussein Obama, because he's "black," even half-black, is racist, voting and supporting Hillary Clinton because she's a woman is sexist. Is that all the Democratic Party can come up with, sexim and racism, the novelty of a category of people that hadn't yet made it to the White House? That's a campaign?

I think it's pretty pathetic to promote Hillary for her two XXs rather than great experience and accomplishments. In all honesty, her greatest accomplishment has been keeping out of jail or at least a courtroom, considering all of the charges and suspicions against her.

To be honest, Hillary, as First Lady, was cut from the Jacqueline Kennedy cloth aka Stand by Your Man. That's neither enlightened nor modern.


Is that what American Women of the 21st Century really want to support and promote?

And who's the other most popular Democrat dueling it out with Hillary, Bernie Sanders? He's from the far Left of the political and Democratic ideological spectrum. Yes, he's Jewish, but I wouldn't support him for that, since he doesn't live as an active identifying Jew, nor does he support Israel in the way I think all should, no matter what their religion.

Another interesting thing about these Democratic frontrunners is that both are past retirement age. Hillary was born in 1947, making her 69 by Election Day, and Sanders was born in 1941 making him 75 by then. Just a little food for thought...
