Israeli wall
This past Sunday (December 13th, 2015) the first Haaretz Q conference took place at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City. Self-described as "an opportunity to ask and discuss the most pressing questions around Israel today and engage in a new Israeli American discussion about the future", the conference began with keynote addresses by prominent politicians such as Israeli President Reuven Rivlin, Member of Knesset (MK) and former foreign minister Tzipi Livni, and Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Secretary General Dr. Saeb Erekat. US President Barack Obama was also "in attendance", addressing the star-struck audience via a short prerecorded welcoming address.

Greeted with the respect of a standing crowd of hundreds in the main hall at The Roosevelt, President Rivlin began his speech by stating that although he does not agree "to say the least" with Haaretz's "very specific agenda" (which he later admitted was anti establishment, not just targeted at past and present right wing governments), he reads the paper every morning in order to understand points of view other than his own. Haaretz "is a beacon for a freedom of expression in Israel", testimony to the country's rich democratic culture, apparently. He then continued with a predictable circling-of-the-wagons-style defense of Israeli actions:

Comment: Faced with the facts, Israel doesn't have a moral leg to stand on. Rather, they stand on a wall of lies, deceit and deception that the world is quickly catching on to. The soldiers of Breaking the Silence, and other Israelis brave enough to speak out and champion the truth are nothing less than true heroes in this upside down, black is white, bad is good world of lies they (and we) are mired in. They deserve our every respect and support.

Hysteria: Reported gunman at UT-Arlington campus turns out to be man carrying video camera

© Facebook/UTA Radio NewsThe scene at UT-Arlington Wednesday morning following reports of a gunman on campus
Updated at 11:14 a.m.: University of Texas at Arlington says a "suspect has been apprehended," and the "all clear" has been given.

Says the latest, and likely last Mav Alert, "Multiple sweeps of the Architecture Building have been completed. No weapon has been found. Resume normal operations."

UTA police say the man had a video camera, not a gun, and that he was not a student. It's not yet clear why they referred to him as a "suspect" in the Mav Alert.

He was eventually released from police custody about 90 minutes after the incident began.

Comment: The US is apparently so hystericized that a man wearing camo gear and carrying a camera can be confused for a gunman ready to shoot up a campus. How long before some innocent person in the wrong place gets killed because the entire population is so terrified?

McDonald's customers stepped over man as he collapsed and choked to death

McDonald's customers stepped over a disabled man as he choked to death on a lump of meat so they could get served, an inquest heard. Mike Ore, who had spina bifida, collapsed when a ball of food blocked his oesophagus as he sat in his wheelchair in the Cheltenham restaurant. CCTV footage revealed that it was three minutes before anybody went to the 47 year-old's assistance, Gloucestershire Coroner's Court was told.

One man who went to his aid told the inquest he saw several customers step over Mr Ore in order to get to the counter.

Customer Johnny Langden told the inquest: "I was standing in a queue at McDonald's with my family when I saw this man in a wheelchair clearly in distress. I and two ladies went to his assistance and tried to remove the food from his mouth, but he had turned purple in colour and I realised that he was dying. I could not believe it, but some customers stepped over his body to get to the counter."

Coroner David Dooley said nobody appeared to notice Mr Ore's condition at the High Street branch on July 8 "until it was too late"

"The deceased has spina bifida, gout and alcohol problems. He was also a heavy smoker. A ball of food had lodged in his oesophagus and caused a blockage. Unfortunately nobody appeared to notice his condition until it was too late" said coroner David Dooley. A toxicology report revealed a high level of alcohol in his blood and urine and his lungs were congested. One of the effects of excessive alcohol can be a loss of co-ordination and an impairment of the swallowing reflex. Choking can result. The deceased had been drinking prior to visiting the restaurant and the alcohol could have inhibited the swallowing reflux. Unfortunately nobody appeared to notice his condition until it was too late."

The coroner concluded the death of Mr Ore, of Cheltenham, was accidental.

Comment: Is this a case of the average person being so unaware, like a zombie, that they didn't even notice the dying? Is the drive to consume the ridiculously unhealthy fast food at McDonald's so strong that nothing else matters? Or have people completely lost the empathy and compassion needed to respond in a situation like this? Whichever the answer, the result is that society is in a dangerous place and it may take some serious action by Mother Nature to wake the world up.

A Virginia police detective who served on a regional task force investigating crimes against children killed himself Tuesday morning as investigators sought to arrest him on molestation and solicitation charges with a minor, authorities said.

Detective D. E. Abbott Jr. was wanted on two counts of indecent liberties with a minor and two counts of using a communications device to solicit a minor, the Manassas, Virginia, City Police Department said Tuesday.

"This is a tragic and sad day for the Abbott family, the juvenile victims and their families, the Manassas City Police Department, and our community," police spokeswoman Adrienne Helms said in a statement.

She did not provide details of how Abbott died. The Washington Post reported that the 39-year-old detective shot himself after a standoff that developed after officers came to arrest him.

Helms said Prince William County Police developed the case against Abbott, not the Manassas City Police Department. Abbott served on the Northern Virginia-Washington, D.C., Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, Helms said.

Sadistic Pennsylvania cop shoots family cat with shotgun for hissing at him

In a new and cowardly low, a Pennsylvania cop blew a cat away with a shotgun because it hissed at him

Six years ago, when Tom Newhart and his wife rescued a baby cat and named him Sugar, they never imagined that his life would end in a hail of gunfire. However, thanks to a North Catasauqua police officer, that's exactly what happened.

Last Sunday, Sugar escaped from the Newhart's home. Hours later, he'd be gunned down by police.

"It's like one of your children, you raised them, bottle fed them," said Newhart as he began tearing up.

When Sugar escaped, a neighbor five houses down found him and decided to call the police after not being able to detain the lost cat. When the cop showed up, he pulled out a shotgun and it was open season on lost cats.

"I found the cat sitting right here," said the neighbor, Mike Lienert.

When the officer showed up, he told Lienert that it's "not politically correct, but if it's injured we will put it down," — as if being 'politically correct' has anything to do with killing an innocent animal.

The officer then walked into Lienert's backyard, blew the cat away, and then told Lienert that he'd have to clean up the mess. Lienert said aside from poking at the dead cat's body, the officer never attempted to catch the cat.

Lienert said the cat did hiss at the officer, but instead of grabbing a pair of gloves and putting the cat in a cage, this public servant did some target practice.

After recovering Sugar's body, the Newhart's decided to have him x-rayed by the vet to see if the officer was justified in shooting him. However, they found that Sugar was fine, and the officer had no reason to kill him."No lacerations, no blood, other than neck wound on body. " Newhart said.

Comment: How utterly deplorable. Don't call the police for any reason, ever - they are completely out of control!

Dear Readers and Critics,

It is time we had a little talk about what is going on here on our planet, our home; our beautiful blue, green and gold marble that spins through the velvet blackness of space in tandem with its brother and sister planets and its parent star: our Sun that gives us life. Lovely image, yes? Poetic, even. Well, all of those complicated things involved in the gift of life seem to be presently under threat by that most interesting of evolutionary developments: homo schizoidius.

We all know something is wrong in our world. Just consider the hysteria that is spreading like a plague. Most recently we have a French teacher stabbing himself and claiming it was a terrorist attack. After being arrested, he was sent to the mental ward. This was a guy who had been teaching and influencing children for twenty years! Then, there was the absolute limit: a waitress in a bar called police after mistaking a mic stand for a gun! A band member was carrying it inside to set up for a performance! Streets were shut down, SWAT team came out, and people could have been killed - including said waitress if she would only stop to think a moment. How many people have recently called cops to help sort a situation only to end up having their loved ones killed, or even being shot themselves? If she has so little common sense, that waitress ought not to breed and spawn, that's for sure.

Malala Yousafzai slams Trump: His comments are full of hatred towards Muslim immigrants

Nobel prize winner Malala Yousafzai condemned Donald Trump's views on Muslims on Tuesday, at a somber ceremony to remember the 134 children killed in a Taliban attack on a Pakistani school a year ago.

"Well, that's really tragic that you hear these comments which are full of hatred, full of this ideology of being discriminative towards others," Malala told AFP, in response to recent comments by the US Republican presidential candidate.

Trump has been heavily criticized for calling for a ban on all Muslims entering the United States after a Muslim husband and wife killed 14 people in a shooting rampage in California, an incident classified as a terrorist act.

Speaking at the ceremony in the city of Birmingham, central England, Malala's father Ziauddin Yousafzai also criticized Trump's comments.

Comment: Fascist Trump spews his hatred at Muslims, playing on the fear of the average Joe in America who has been brainwashed that all Muslims are evil. Has the groundwork been laid for a Hitler repeat in the good old USA?

Eighty years ago Edgar Cayce predicted Putin's role in stopping WW3

Edgar Cayce
Watching geo-political events unfold today is like watching a slow motion train wreck, especially if you're informed by history and understand the connection between 'World Wars' and the unseen influences behind international politics and global banking.

Edgar Cayce is one of the world's most revered psychics, the 'Sleeping Prophet,' as they called him, and many consider him to be the father of holistic medicine. Entering into trance-like states of consciousness at will, he could divine information from some extra-ordinary plane of existence on behalf of his patients or in response to specific queries from an audience. He was remarkably insightful and accurate, which is why his name is so familiar to so many.

Much of what he brought back from the 'Source' of his inspired information pertained to specific medical issues, but in the staggering volumes of his readings and written works there is an abundance of insight and prophecy related to larger global political and social events.

Just in time for the holidays, Kentucky shelter tosses out all women because they tempt men with 'ungodly' sex

A Kentucky homeless shelter said that it has banned all women and children in an effort to stop them from having sex with male residents.

Emergency Christian Ministries Director Billy Woodward told WYMT that he had to put a stop to the "sex problem."

"They may want to meet or slip in a room occasionally, we can't have that," Woodward explained. "It seems like these last days it's getting worse ... the ungodly type."

"They say, 'We're homeless, maybe we can find somebody, a mate or something,'" he continued. "If they done it right, it would be fine. But, you know, they go overboard with it."

Emergency Christian Ministries forced up to a dozen women to leave, according to WYMT. It was not immediately clear if the women had been able to relocate because Emergency Christian Ministries is the only shelter for the homeless in Williamsburg.

Comment: No matter what kind of problems may have been going on, Woodward should have found a solution that didn't involve banning women and their children. Really, what is the point of having a shelter if you're going to ban those that need it most?
