You can look up the IP here

OT, linkage: two links from Stalinist website Common Dreams:

From the "Don't question their patriotism" department: The Cult of 9/11, by Paul Campos. Excerpties:

[...] in the keen disappointment that ripples throughout the right-wing blogosphere every time the collapse of a bridge or a steam pipe explosion turns out not to have been the work of Scary Brown People Who Hate Our Freedoms [...]

Trust the Leftscum to turn everything into a race issue.

First, in the weeks immediately following 9/11, a lot of people said and did a great many ridiculous things. [...]

Yes, you can find a lot of those ridiculous things in the archives of Common Dreams, where you see how, right after 9/11, lefty writers issued calls for appeasement of the Muslims from the get-go.

Second link: Crisis, by the Attn-Whore herself. In case you're wondering why I should care what Cindy Shaheen says--I'm bringing this as a documentation of her anti-Israel sentiment:

However, emergency CPR needs to flow to Jordan and Syria immediately to help the Iraqi people and the two mentioned countries. Significantly, both countries also have vast populations of Palestinian refugees that has now become a generational problem. Solving the problems in Israel will help the Palestinian refugees who want the right of return to their homes as well as help solving our own "terrorism" problem at home. This is also an issue that needs to be pressed and exposed back in the states. [Emphasis mine. --ZY]

Remember when she said, "You'll get the US out of Iraq and Israel out of Palestine and then we'll have peace!" Now we can see, despite her denials, that she hasn't changed that stance.

In case it isn't clear to our lefty friends: calling for application of the "Palestinian Right of Return" is inherently anti-Jewish, because it would mean the destruction of the only Jewish state in the world (God forbid). Whenever I learn of somebody that he supports the ROR, I file him either in the "Nazi" (if Muslim) or in the "Nazi-sympathizer" (if non-Muslim) rubric.

I found concern reading the daily star quote in reference 75, and so followed this reference to a supposed article posted on a third party site. I had no reason to question the contents of this article, however reference 76 makes claims which are currently not verifiable by the reference link. If somebody could kindly research this, as I will attempt to do myself as well, it would be appreciated. I think this particular quote is important to the understanding of the Hezzbollah ideology, especially in that it seemingly contradicts the well documented notion of theirs that they are executing defensive Jihad. Please help me shed some light on this topic.

Despite the obvious sensitivity of this information, the ”Times” first tipped off the foundations that they were soon to be raided and impounded, then published articles with this information. Naturally, when the federal agents arrived the next day, much important information had already been obscured. A grand jury was convened to consider an indictment against the leakers.

Yvonne Ridley Coming to Canada to Speak

Barbara Kay: Coming to a city near you: Radical Islam supporter Yvonne Ridley
Guess who’s coming to dinner in Toronto and Montreal this September?

You may remember the name Yvonne Ridley. She was the journalist captured by the Taliban in 2001. A textbook case of Stockholm Syndrome, she converted to Islam and took up the cause of her captors. Now a talking head on the Islam Channel in England, where she is responsible for political issues, she is also a founder and frequent candidate for the Respect Party (the political party of choice for fundamentalist Muslims, and terrorist-supporting left wing political scoundrels like George Galloway).

Ridley supports radical Islam’s objectives and its spokespeople (she has stated, for example, that Abu Hamza al-Masri, the infamously radical and openly jihadist Finsbury Park Mosque imam is “quite sweet really” and has designated as “martyrs” such monsters as Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and Chechan devil Shamil Basayev, who perpetrated the horrific Beslan school massacre), and to this day defends the Taliban in Afghanistan, where Canadian soldiers are risking (and losing) life and limb to defeat them.

Ridley has also recently become the London correspondent for a new TV channel created by Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad – Press TV – which, according to Ridley, offers “a different perspective than that of conventional media.” (On its Internet site there is a section, “Analyses,” where one can find insinuations that the British government orchestrated the recent car bomb attacks on London and Glasgow in order to tarnish the image of Muslims in Great Britain.)

And yet, at the invitation of the Islamic Congress of Canada, Yvonne Ridley is being brought this September to our shores as a guest speaker. A petition is presently making the rounds in Quebec, demanding that the Islamic Congress of Canada disassociate itself from Yvonne Ridley and her odious connections and words, and, in addition, make clear to the Canadian public the Congress’ refusal to offer any support, direct or indirect, to Islamist terrorism. If you would like more information about Yvonne Ridley or about this petition, please contact redaction@egards.qc.ca.

Couple dissolves marriage after wife embraces Islam

By M. MAGESWARI

PETALING JAYA: A teacher and a hotel manager became the first couple in the country to dissolve their marriage amicably through the Syariah lower court after she embraced Islam.

Today, Aishah Sandhera Abdullah @ Sandhera Debbie Kimbi, 27, from Sibu, Sarawak, applied to the Syariah lower court here to dissolve her marriage because of the change of religion.

She made her application under Section 46(2) of the Islamic Family Law Enactment (Selangor) 2003.

The court granted the application to dissolve the marriage.

In confirming the dissolution of the marriage for her, Syariah court judge Ghazali Ahmad praised the couple for settling the matter good-naturedly.

According to the statement of claim, Aishah, who is the plaintiff, had married Reynolds Chua Guan Teck, 28, on May 5, 2004.

The marriage was registered under the Law Reform (Marriage and Divorce) Act 1976 as both were Christians during the period. The couple has no children.

Aishah converted to Islam on Feb 2 while the defendant was still a Christian.

The couple then could not live together under Islamic law because of the difference in religions.

She filed the summons and statement of claim on Aug 1 for the dissolution of the marriage.

The defendant had filed a divorce petition on July 20 at the Shah Alam High Court (civil) under the Law Reform (Marriage and Divorce) Act.

The Shah Alam Court has not set a date to hear the divorce matter.

Speaking to reporters later, Aishah's lawyer Zainul Rijal Abu Bakar said the case set a precedent for couples to dissolve their marriages amicably when one party converts to Islam.

He said such settlements should be encouraged as it resulted in a win-win situation for both.

Earlier, Aishah informed Ghazali that she would attend the divorce case proceeding for Chua at the Shah Alam High Court.

This is just the tip of the Iceberg, I'll bet!

Hamas TV's child star says she's ready for martyrdom

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Saraa Barhoum picked at the buttons on her pink bellbottom jeans as she twisted on a chair inside the bustling new Hamas television headquarters. The afternoon light bounced off the sparkly outlines of butterflies on her frilly top, and a colorful hijab framed her 11-year-old face.
Saraa wants to be a doctor. If she can't, the young star of Hamas television's best-known children's show said, she'd be proud to become a martyr. Saraa says little Jewish girls should be forced from their homes in Israel so that Palestinians can return to their land.

Yet one more reason why I don't allow my students to use Wikipedia as a source. It's ok for some things, as folks said earlier if you know enough about the subject to pick out errors/distortions, etc. But I regularly see papers cut and pasted out of there.

How Not To Get Out Of Iraq
by Max Boot

Excerpt:

If none of these strategies holds out a serious hope of success, what, then, does? Time and again in Iraq, we have seen that substantial ground forces, if properly employed, can indeed rout terrorists. Consider the success of offensives since 2004 in Falluja, Najaf, Tal Afar, Qaim, Hit, Ramadi, and Baquba. In the past, the problem with many of these operations was that we lacked enough troops to sustain a long-term presence after taking the city. Now, as a combined result of the surge, greater cooperation from Iraqi tribes, and more effective Iraqi fighting forces, we may finally have gathered enough strength to execute, at least in some critical locales, all phases of the “clear, hold, and build” approach that is at the heart of successful counterinsurgency warfare.

It would be extremely short-sighted if, as a result of war-weariness, we were to abort this classic strategy before it has had a chance to be fully implemented. As I noted at the outset, early signs have been positive: U.S. and Iraqi troops have been reducing violence in Baghdad and surrounding areas. In late July, returning from an eight-day visit to the front lines, Kenneth Pollack and his Brookings colleague Michael O’Hanlon, both of whom have been harshly critical of the administration’s “miserable handling of Iraq,” reported in a widely cited New York Times op-ed that they were “surprised by the gains” being made. “We are finally getting somewhere in Iraq, at least in military terms,” they wrote.

Wow. Has anyone looked at how the NYT edited entries on itself? (revision 70278386)

Look at their revision to discussion of Judith Miller alerting the Holy Land Foundation to their imminent raid:

old version:

In an earlier similar case, in late 2001 ''Times'' reporters (including [[Judith Miller (journalist)|Judith Miller]]) learned that federal agents would soon raid the Holyland Relief Foundation and the Global Relief Foundation freeze their assets. The two foundations were noted conduits for funding various Arab terrorist organizations operating in Israel. Despite the obvious sensitivity of this information, the ''Times'' first tipped off the foundations that they were soon to be raided and impounded, then published articles with this information. Naturally, when the federal agents arrived the next day, much important information had already been obscured. A grand jury was convened to consider an indictment against the leakers. When the grand jury called upon the ''Times'' to reveal its sources, the ''Times'' refused to do so. After many letters were exchanged debating the issue, the ''Times'' received a [[declaratory judgment]] prohibiting the grand jury from subpoenaing the ''Times'' phone records. That decision was recently [[Link: 10.213.23.111:8080...] reversed], allowing the government to obtain the records.

the NYT's changed version:

In an earlier similar case, in late 2001 Times reporters (including [[Judith Miller]]) were leaked information about government actions against the [[Holy Land Foundation]] and the [[Global Relief Foundation]], two Islamic Charities suspected of funding terrorist organizations. In the course of their reporting, The Times reporters sought comment from the charities; the government had already frozen the assets of other similar charities, and the fact that additional government action was about to be taken had been widely reported. A [[grand jury]] was convened in Illinois to consider an indictment against the leakers. The Times did not cooperate with the prosecutor’s request for the reporters to identify their confidential sources. When the government said it would subpoena the telephone companies for the phone records of the reporters to help identify their sources, The Times sought an injunction preventing the prosecutor from obtaining and reviewing the records. The Federal District Court in New York agreed with The Times on the basis of a [[First Amendment]] and [[common law]] reporters’ privilege, and barred the government from seeing the records. However, that decision was recently reversed by the [[U.S. Court of Appeals]], allowing the government to obtain the records.

My boy is getting into baseball a bit. He calls Derek Jeter "my favortie Irish cousin," which I think my FiL started. The FiL lives down the road from where Jeter was born and spent his first six or seven years.

Being from the old sol, the FiL revels in him being half Irish.

I actually bought him a Schilling shirt when I was at Fenway and got a lot of grief from my cousins when I had him wear it one night on the Cape.

newjerseydevils.com – Consider it one of the last times these seats will be empty.

As Prudential Center construction continues to gather momentum, work began Thursday on the installation of the seats that will hold thousands of Devils fans this October.

Prudential Center will be the site of New Jersey's 2007-08 regular season home opener on Saturday, Oct, 27, just two days after rockers Bon Jovi perform the first-ever event at the brand-new, state-of-the-art venue.

From the Club Level to the Upper Ends, each of the 17,625 seats will have sight lines unlike any others in the National Hockey League.

Fans will have spectacular views of the ice surface, LED video ribbon boards, and eight-sided video scoreboard.

Comfort was a top priority for the wider seats, which also will feature extra knee and leg room.

Sounds like a nice place to see a hockey game.

Barring a collapse, I think they'll both wind up in the playoffs, though you may regret getting Eric Gagne. I think he's finished, but we'll see.

Don't know if you've seen Joba Chamberlain yet, but he's the new 8th inning setup man, though limited in innings since he's been rushed up.

His first Stadium appearance last night and the fans were already doing "Jo-ba Jo-ba" chants. Three or four appearances and he's a cult hero, which tells you long it's been since they had a reliable brindge to Mariano.

He's got lights out stuff, hit 99 on the radar last night with his fastball and has a wicked slider. You'll probably see him in two weeks.

The first family to die was the Rafalyks — father, mother and a child. Later on the Fediy family of five also perished of starvation. Then followed the families of Prokhar Lytvyn (four persons), Fedir Hontowy (three persons), Samson Fediy (three persons). The second child of the latter family was beaten to death on somebody's onion patch. Mykola and Larion Fediy died, followed by Andrew Fediy and his wife; Stefan Fediy; Anton Fediy, his wife and four children (his two other little girls survived); Boris Fediy, his wife and three children: Olanviy Fediy and his wife; Taras Fediy and his wife; Theodore Fesenko; Constantine Fesenko; Melania Fediy; Lawrenty Fediy; Peter Fediy; Eulysis Fediy and his brother Fred; Isidore Fediy, his wife and two children; Ivan Hontowy, his wife and two children; Vasyl Perch, his wife and child; Makar Fediy; Prokip Fesenko: Abraham Fediy; Ivan Skaska, his wife and eight children.

Some of these people were buried in a cemetery plot; others were left lying wherever they died. For instance, Elizabeth Lukashenko died on the meadow; her remains were eaten by ravens. Others were simply dumped into any handy excavation. The remains of Lawrenty Fediy lay on the hearth of his dwelling until devoured by rats.*

I agree. Once you get away from politically-charged subjects, it's just articles written by fans of whatever topic they're posting about, like car stuff. So, the "take it with a grain of salt" pretty much applies. Some of the automotive stuff I've seen written on Wiki was more accurate that what's in some books you find in the bookstore, especially the big coffee table books that have been marked down to $6.98, which are long on pictures and short on accuracy.

I just found the topic an interesting edit is all.

As for the removal of "sharmuta", I have no idea, yet that horrid post on the Jewish slave trade is still there (much more inflammatory than moi) and some idiot is out there reading and believing that cr*p.

The burden now lies with YOU to educate the world on 'sharmuta'!

re: #240 Occasional Reader

It can be very useful (re: the "vulva" article people complained about on a previous thread ; even if the photos are a bit shocking they give you a much better idea of the "architecture" than the Gray's Anatomy drawings). But it's like a Thesaurus -- it's most useful if you already know something about what you're looking for. The history articles are usually quite serviceable, but sometimes contain stuff that's either out of date or balderdash.

The only thing I've ever edited was a page on Jimmy Page, btw.

Here is another one from the NYT list of edits:
[Link: en.wikipedia.org...]

An edit for Condoleezza Rice:

At age 15, Rice began classes with the goal of becoming a concert [[pianist]]. Her plans changed when she attended a course on international politics taught by [[Josef Korbel]], the father of former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.

Was changed to:

re: #240 Occasional Reader

In defense of Wiki, I actually find it surprisingly accurate regarding topics which a) aren't heavily political and b) about which I have a good base of independent knowledge with which to compare.

Thanks, important tip from OR guys! Back to work.

re: #237 loppyd

Joba is already being heralded as Mariano's successor by Klapish, which I think is premature. Let's see how he does the rest of the season. The kid certainly has a live arm and great stuff.

Besides, Joba wants to be a starter (don't they all?!)

I think Joba might come around to think a little differently if things progress as they are.

The kid has a great future. Lots of possibilities.

re: #174 sifty

I prefer the Sammy days myself.

Eddie VH has wet brain and comes off as a very bitter, mean-spirited man.

I'd be bitter and mean spirited too if I was married to Valerie Bertinelli and had no tongue...

re: #244 Occasional Reader

For instance, the only major fact missing from the Wiki entry on Adriana Lima is any mention of our torrid, off-again on-again romance.

So edit it, dude! Get on it!

That roar you hear is the sound of a mass LGF migration to Wikipedia.

re: #253 MrMom

Then I hope they're all taking notes. ;)

re: #260 Cognito

Hardly.

OR,

For instance, the only major fact missing from the Wiki entry on Adriana Lima is any mention of our torrid, off-again on-again romance.

From Wiki...

Lima has admitted that she was shy around boys when she was younger. She got her first kiss at 17 years old.[15] In an interview with GQ April 2006 issue, Lima told the magazine that she is a virgin.

Real torrid romance there, OR.

re: #258 Sifty

He's not married to her anymore....

She's the new Jenny Craig spokesperson, you know.

Wow, I've just been jogging around Wiki and checking out the histories of some entries (President Bush, Vice President Cheney and Charles, just to name a few)...talk about unimaginative little moonbats!

If we wiki Adriana Lima *and* vulva, we will find cognito?
