<< Time for the American's to open their wallets again for the only democracy in the Middleast. >> I agree. If the terrorists win against Israel, they will have renewed strength and confidence, and Europe or the US would be next. Either increase funding for Israel now, or freedom and democracy might not survive. I've dramatically increased my donations to the Israel military and to Israeli victims, and will continue to do so. Israel really needs the support from the rest of the free world. To help out: walk4israel.com

Len, I think the US has adopted the same policy vis-a-vis Judeofascism as the FDR administration's policy towards Nazism... It's a rather short-sighted policy. In the 1930s and up to 1941, the US establishment was rather pro-Nazi (Ch. Lindbergh, Henry Ford, Joseph Kennedy, etc.) and the US administration tried to keep a middle-of-the-road approach toward Nazism and democracy (in Europe). Likewise, today, we can see that Prez Bush struggles to stick to a middle-of-the-road position between Judeofascism and freedom for the Palestinian people. Of course, from an "AmericaFirst" viewpoint, such attitude is quite legitimate: so long as America can safely be shielded from Eurasian Judeofascism, there's no need for US authorities to jeopardize America's blissfulness by taking sides with one or the other party abroad. However, as History shows us, Judeofascism, like its Nazi prequel, can spoil the whole of Europe, the Middle East, Russia, North Africa, and, eventually, the US itself... Gus

NO PLACE LIKE HOME.... Isn't it funny that, when it comes to emigrating, diaspora Jews don't even mention Israel as one of their various destinations? They don't even take the trouble to transit by Israel before settling in the US.... At that rate, one day, the Mossad will end up organizing a hush-hush, massive exfiltration of Jews from Israel to the US --like they did in Ethiopia!! LOL.... Iranian Jews celebrate By Ali Akbar Dareini, The Associated Press SHIRAZ, Iran - As members of Iran's tiny Jewish community celebrated the festival marking the biblical delivery of Jews from slavery, others longed for 10 people imprisoned on charges of spying for Israel. According to Israeli calendars, the festival of Passover - which marks the exodus of the Jews from Egypt - ended sunset Wednesday. Iranian Jews, however, mark the end of Passover Thursday. Iranian Jewish community leader Ishaq Niknava said Passover commemorates freedom, but many Jews in Shiraz - a Jewish center boasting 16 synagogues - remained dismayed by the jailing two years ago of 10 Jews charged with spying for Israel. Some 6,000 of Iran's 25,000 Jews live in Shiraz, 885 kilometers (550 miles) south of Tehran, the capital of predominantly Islamic Iran. "Their imprisonment has depressed our small Jewish community. Since then, the number of Jews immigrating from Iran to the United States and other countries has sharply increased," Niknava said, giving no figures. The imprisoned Jews were mostly religious leaders. Families of the convicted Jews have not spoken to the press and other ordinary Jews give only their first name, fearing a backlash. Shiraz shopkeeper Neman said he would immigrate - along with others he knows who have left - if he had the money and a relative in the United States to help his immigration. "Imprisonment of the best known Jewish community members has depressed the whole community and caused fear. I would prefer to leave Iran if can," Neman said. A closed-door trial found the 10 guilty of spying for Israel and sentenced them to prison sentences ranging from four to 13 years. An appeals court changed the conviction to cooperating with Israel and reduced the sentences to a maximum of nine years. Two of the convicted have been freed. jpost.com
