Confederate Monuments Removal:New Orleans Changes History
New Orleans, Louisiana City Council voted today to remove four monuments of Confederate era leaders.One of those is a towering master work of Robert E Lee that has stood for over one hundred years.Another is Jefferson Davis who was president of the Confederate states.The usual reasons were included in the debate.Two reasons given were lynching of blacks and of course slavery. I don't think Lee or Davis ever used a rope to hang a black or white man.But that's not the popular narrative which has been sold by carpetbaggers both black and white since the end of the Civil War.Its been their stock in trade for political and monetary gain.Taking down statues is revising history. That's a form of theft.I have noticed that many African Americans are behind bars for theft. So they feel at home in some elses home. Given enough time it would seem that getting rid of the wheel could be down the road for power mad blacks who prefer to walk in the middle of the street.The reason why blacks are here is because their relatives in West Africa sold them. They knew they were getting more in the price than what they were trading away.

Israel Embraces America: What's Wrong With This Picture?
Our moron president is in Israel celebrating the so-called 60th anniversary of Israel's land swindle of Palestine and the slow-motion genocide of its indigenous people. One photo has the Prime Minister of Israel Ehud Olmert gleefully and possessively hugging Bush. Pictures are worth a thousand words. It's a truism that the proximity of a Zionist-in this scene, Olmert- is directly proportional to the exploitability of the targeted person -in this scene Bush and by extension the U.S. America is Israel's only friend. Boy are we doing something wrong! The U.S. stands between Israel and its world of enemies. If we went away, Israel would disappear quickly.
While in Israel Bush will visit the ancient mountain fortress of Masada. It is a monument to Israeli nationalism. It was here that in 70 A.D. app. 1000 Israeli zealots holed up in the face of advancing Roman legions. And what did the zealots do to earn this commemoration? They commited suicide by jumping from Masada heights. What's brave about that? The zealots were cowards.
I get the feeling that the Masada event will play again in modern times. Israel sometime in the not to distant future will be faced with destruction from one or many of its many enemies. And so it will use its nukes before it is finally annihilated. It will be a kind of suicide and final gesture. Israel won't be missed.
