Playing with children

One of the most despicable facets of Charles Johnson's weblog, Little Green Footballs, is that he uses it to demonize a whole people - men, women and children alike.

By making it appear as if even the youngest Palestinian is a potential terrorist threat, Johnson can justify their indiscriminate slaughter in a war they never asked for.

Occasionally, though, even LGF will remain silent when a particularly grim case of injustice against Palestinians surfaces that cannot - by any stretch of the imagination - be blamed on the victim.

Such as the story of Marya Aman.

Oh, these misfits will find a way. They always do. It gets more imbecilic every time, but then again, it's LGF we're talking about here.

And occasionally LGF and its racist followers spout off so much vile hatred that it must be exposed. I warn you the following is a prime example of the race hating filth that represents LGF. I would suggest that those who find it as hateful and disgusting as I did, to report this to the proper authorities.

"Los Angeles is the second largest city of Mexican nationals in the world



Well this situation WILL NOT CHANGE until:

1) We as a Sovereign (nation?) vote in politicians who follow the wishes of the people by enforcing the existing laws regarding immigration.

2) We as a people act as one people instead of using the bs -American mentality. (this: (- ), means hyphen for you Kos kids out there).

3) Anyone who hires illegal aliens be it the large corporations, small business, to the homeowner going to the Home Depot for day labors, face immediate penalties with no exception-HIRE an ILLEGAL, Goto jail, period.

4) Enforce laws like prop 187, dismiss judges who rule against them. They are the WILL OF THE PEOPLE, any judge who would rule against the protection of LEGAL/NATURALIZED citizens should be removed immediately.

5) PUT UP THAT WALL and f the U.N.

6) Inform Mexico or any other third world malingering nations with their hands reaching into the U.S. taxpayers' wallets, that the teat has run dry...they are on their own.

7) PUT UP THAT WALL and tell MeCha to F Off.

8) PUT UP THAT WALL and tell the LLL to f Off.

9) PUT UP THAT WALL and run Sean Penn, Mic al-Moor, Alec Boldwimp and the rest of the whinning piss-ants out of here. If this country is So Bad, they shouldn't mind leaving here and leaving here forever."

I have already made calls to report this outrage to the offices of my senators Feinstein and Boxer, and to my congress person Pelosi as well as an email to Attorney General Brown. This is hate speech. Hate speech always turns to violence. Just look at history and history never lies.

Thanks for exposing another vile commenter on LGF. If I remember, some time ago a LGFer was apprehended and incarcerated for publicly expressing his hatred towards Muslims. The last I heard, he was killed in a prison yard brawl. Justice does come swiftly but, it does come to those who violate the basic human rights. I predict that within a year, Charles will be forced to shut down LGF permanently for its flagrant display of hatred posted by Charles and by his Kool-aid drinking followers.

Hey, some prime foolishness at LGF today. Here (HuffPo Military Coup Writer: It Was Satire, Wingnuts) they complained that a blogger can't hide behind satire, even though it was obvious satire to anyone but the wingnuts, and just to prove it they did it again yesterday (Kos Kid: George W. Bush's Property Should Be Seized), missing the fact that this posting was obviously tongue-in-cheek (it is also proposing the waterboarding of Bush). Those poor shmucks are -- as we say at Warcheerleaders -- grasping at straws to drink the purple kool-aid.

Understanding satire requires a sense of humor; something lacking in most lizards (except when they make fun of Muslims being offended by the Danish Muhammad cartoons or the Afghan soccer balls, then 5 minutes later throw a hissy fit over a burnt American flag, Ted Rall comic, or satirical Kos blog post without any sense of irony).

the arabs fire their kassams from civillian areas, and even hospitals. The Israelis have every right to kill those people lobbing these bombs and those arabs hiding among civillians are responsible for the civillian deaths, when Israel responds

go read the Geneva conventions

Something you either are not equipped to comprehend, or refuse to acknowlege.

too bad..she is truly a tragedy

why don;t YOU pay for her medical treatment...

Israel has more than 10,000 victims of arab brutality and slaughter to take care of..

Palestine has far more victims of Israeli brutality to take care of, just a friendly reminder..

"go read the Geneva conventions"

Oh and you have then? Heard of the 4th convention? I suggest you read up on it. Because this...

"The Israelis have every right to kill those people lobbing these bombs and those arabs hiding among civillians are responsible for the civillian deaths, when Israel responds"

...is completely at odds with it. But then again when has Israel cared about the Geneva Conventions (they have claimed they are not applicable to the Occupied Territories) and international law (they paradoxically claimed the UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment wasn't relevant because the Geneva Conventions covered it).

The Geneva Conventions? Israel is probably the no.1 violator of the GC in the world today:

The Israeli settlement policy is a war crime under the Fourth Geneva Convention and its protocols.

Art. 49. Individual or mass forcible transfers, as well as deportations of protected persons from occupied territory to the territory of the Occupying Power or to that of any other country, occupied or not, are prohibited, regardless of their motive...

The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies.


Protocol I additional to the Geneva Conventions. Art. 85 – Repression of breaches of this Protocol.

In addition to the grave breaches defined in Article 11, the following acts shall be regarded as grave breaches of this Protocol, when committed wilfully, in violation of the relevant provisions of this Protocol, and causing death or serious injury to body or health:

(a) making the civilian population or individual civilians the object of attack;

(b) launching an indiscriminate attack affecting the civilian population or civilian objects in the knowledge that such attack will cause excessive loss of life, injury to civilians or damage to civilian objects, as defined in Article 57, paragraph 2 (a) (iii);

(c) launching an attack against works or installations containing dangerous forces in the knowledge that such attack will cause excessive loss of life, injury to civilians or damage to civilian objects, as defined in Article 57, paragraph 2...


This has been Israels modus operandi all along. To inflict MAXIMUM civilan casualties in the knowledge that it will generate reprisal attacks which would then give the Israelis FURTHER justifcation to seize more land, expel civilans off the territories and destroy ANYTHING that may give the Palestinians hope for a future state of their own. Its no secret that peace or no peace, to give back the West Bank or what the Zionists call "Judea and Samaria" to the Palestinians (which they are obliged to do under int'l law and UNSC resolutions) is out of the question, so they resort to maximum turmoil and deliberate provocations, killing Pal kids, razing their farmlands, destroying their livelihoods and then claiming to the world "security" is the reason they wont give back the Occupied Territories when it is ideology rather - that the land is for the Chosen People and Goyim are unworthy sub-humans - and to hell with Intl laws and protocols, as the MAIN reason for the troubles in the Middle East.
