Outrage In Turkey At Israeli Murders
Autopsies conducted on the 9 victims revealed that all died due to gunshot wounds. Some of the gunshots were at extremely close range, between 2 and 14 cm from the victims head. One victim was shot multiple times in the head and body.
Since the activists had no guns and no soldiers were killed this international crime can only be viewed as murder. Every nation in the world seems to recognize this fact, except the good ole USA. The US has called for an independent investigation of cold blooded murder.
Even after the investigation, which will attempt to find fault with the activists to somehow justify murder, nothing will happen. No sanctions. No arrests. No lifting of the blockade. Nothing.
Gazans will continue to have their infrastructure bombed, their leaders assassinated, their schools destroyed, and their children starved.
All in the name of Jesus.

Spike Lee Tells Obama To "Go Off" On BP
Now that everyone has weighed in on the BP disaster, Spike Lee adds his two cents.
Saying that the President needs to "go off" on BP plays into the hands of the republican critics.
The interesting thing is that everybody has a suggestion, but, no one has any idea how to shut off the oil. Not the President, Spike Lee, Glen Beck, or Bobby Jindal. They all scream loudly that the President should do something, but what? No technical expertise, just misdirected anger.
Where were these angry voices when New Orleans was drowning, Iraqis were tortured and the deficit ballooned?
The other day a white man looking at his newspaper said to me, "boy, man is really destroying this planet." The truth is, the white man is destroying this planet. Native Africans and Native Americans never had environmental problems until the arrival of the white man. 30 million buffalo were reduced to a few thousand. Rhinos, elephants, and lions were hunted to near extinction. Air pollution and water pollution killed millions of birds and fish. Strip mining and oil drilling destroyed thousands of acres of habitat for endangered animals. Every animal with fur was hunted to near extinction in North America.
Unless Anderson Cooper and Spike Lee have an ironclad answer on reducing the oil flow, they need to shut the fuck up. Either be part of the problem or part of the solution. Spikes solution, for the President to get mad, accomplishes nothing.
However, it pleases the white man to see the Black President criticized by Black people. Thanks Spike.
Republicans Compare BP Oil Spill To Katrina
In another attempt to disparage the Obama administration, Republicans have compared the government response to the BP oil spill the Bush's response to Hurricane Katrina.
Although the comparison is ludicrous, media outlets continue to report on the spill like it is a national crises. They banner their news casts with "Day 44" like the hostage crises in Iran. They show pictures of floating oil and soaked birds as if the end of the world was fast approaching. Then they cry out, "where is the President?"
It's all bullshit!
First, there is no comparison between HURRICANE Katrina and the BP Oil spill. Over 1500 citizens lost their lives in Katrina, only 11 at the BP oil rig. Thousands of people lost their homes and businesses from all walks of life in Katrina. So far a few fishermen and shrimpers have reported lost income, but, they still have their lives and homes.
Katrina was a natural disaster. The National Weather Service gave plenty of warning. The state and city and federal governments failed to evacuate the old, poor and sick. Left prisoners and hospital patients to drown. Sent the National guard to shoot survivors trying to find food and water. Failed to provide the money and resources to rebuild.
The BP oil spill is entirely a man made disaster. The government had no advance warning. Has no oil drilling or capping equipment in it's budget. Has no "Department of Oil" that deals with oil spills. Is overspent on it's budget while BP makes billions in profit each quarter.
A few oily birds and unemployed shrimpers is the same as a thousand drowned niggers I guess.
The Republicans have repeatedly blamed Obama for the entire mess.
The President has accepted responsibility for the mess, while sending the Justice Department down to determine if criminal charges are forthcoming for BP. Meanwhile Republicans like Bobby Jindal, who refused federal bailout money, are now screaming for federal money like a crack addicts. The same teabaggers who wanted the federal government out private business are now crying for federal help.
Hypocrites.
From the beginning President Obama should have told BP that someones ass would be thrown in jail for every day the oil leaked. They would sit their asses in jail until the leak was stopped and the oil cleaned up.
That is the only way Obama can assume responsibility for this ongoing mess. The government does not posses the technical expertise or equipment to stop the leak.
They do have plenty of jails.
German Flotilla Activists Speak Out
No one believes Arabs. They all lie.
But, Germans! They are white folk. Honest as the day is long. Pure as driven snow.
However, you can only believe 50% of what they say. They were hanging out with Arabs after all.
US News Puts Biased Spin On Israeli Assault
The US media would have you believe the the Israeli Army was perfectly justified in killing unarmed activists because some of their members were beaten and stabbed.
The activists had no right to defend themselves while being mowed down with automatic weapons. Fighting back with metal poles, tools, and pocket knives are the same as fighting back with guns. If you are treated as if you are armed, why not be armed?
The American media is attempting to polish the turd dropped by Israel by demonizing the activists, even though every action they took was legal and peaceful. The same things were said about peaceful protesters in the 60s. Freedom Riders, marchers, and people attempting to vote were beaten and killed by police and charged with disturbing the peace and resisting arrest.
The lack of a response by the government or Black leaders is appalling. Obama is proving to be no friend of the Arab world and liberal leaders are afraid to speak out for fear of losing the Jewish vote, and money.
Meanwhile innocent people are killed trying to keep the people of Gaza from starving. Shameful.
Israel Attacks Gaza Aid Ship
The Israeli Defense Forces attacked aid ships bound for Gaza in international waters resulting in the deaths of at least 8 activists and the detention of over 500.
There has been little US media coverage of this criminal action and a tepid response from the White House, calling for an international investigation. Add this investigation to the war crimes investigations for the invasions of Lebanon, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip and you can produce enough paper to wipe the asses of every US citizen. Ridiculous!
The activists were trying to deliver medical supplies, books, food, and cement to rebuild the infrastructure of Gaza. To prevent that, Israel attacked the ships in international waters. I guess there are pirates on the high seas.
Where is the outrage? Why are Arab countries sitting idly by while a brother nation is being strangled to death at the hands of a minority? Why have Arab nations not organized their own flotilla to break the illegal blockade?
Organizations like the Taliban and Al Qaeda exist because most Arab leaders are pussies. Leaders like Qaddafi, Mubarak, and Assad talk a great game, but when their people really need them to step up and fight for them, they compromise and kow tow.
Arab nations should be organizing a flotilla so big that the Israelis would have to stop 100 ships and kill 1,000 people to stop it. Then the outcry would be overwhelming and no nation could stand by and watch as Israel continued to violate international law.
But, pussies meow. They never roar.

73 Dead In Jamaican Violence
73 civilians have reportedly been killed by Jamaican security forces during an assault on Tivioli Gardens, a very poor community in West Kingston.
More than 500 people have been arrested and transferred to the National Stadium for detention. Distraught relatives have gathered outside the gates of the stadium in an all to familiar scene, looking for sons, daughters, husbands, and wives unaccounted for. Police have reportedly burned several bodies on the streets to prevent identification and autopsy of the remains.
As a result of the assault, the security forces recovered 22 weapons, 8000 rounds of ammunition, and some local and foreign currency (they didn't say how much). The security forces reported 2 police officers killed and 58 wounded during the "operation".
Meanwhile, Christopher "Dudus" Coke remains free. Robin Hood Lives in the countryside protected by the citizens of Sherwood Forest. Not wanted by his own country, but, by a foreign country unable to control it's appetite for illegal drugs.
The manhunt and killing will continue until Mr. Coke is caught or the government falls. Or both.
The people will begin to ask a lot of tough questions after this whole episode is over. Such as, was it worth the lives of 73 innocent people to apprehend a person not wanted by our state? How is it that only 22 weapons were recovered in a community supposedly armed with 50 caliber machine guns? Was Christopher Coke even in the neighborhood at the time of the assault? Why is the Jamaican government doing the bidding of a foreign power? Would the US government kill 73 of it's citizens to capture a person wanted in Jamaica? What happens to the approximately 500 people being held at the National Stadium?
There has been virtually no comment of any kind coming out of the White House or Justice Department about the war on the streets of Kingston. They could care less how many Jamaicans are killed as long as their scapegoat is caught, tried, convicted, or conveniently shot.
Somewhere Bob Marley and Marcus Garvey are crying.
