**** UPDATE, 09/07/10: Schlussel Files Federal Suit Against Muslim Principal, Dearborn Public Schools Over Discrimination Against Christians; HOW YOU CAN HELP ****

In the past, I told you about Paul Hallis, a Maronite Christian Arab whose parents came here from Lebanon.  He was murdered in Dearbornistan by Shi’ite Muslim Arab Khalil Talal Chahine for daring to be engaged to Chahine’s Muslim former girlfriend.  As I noted, Chahine is the son of Talal Chahine, the indicted fugitive Hezbollah financier and former Detroit-area Middle East restaurant owner.

OUTRAGE: Christian Alexander Yono May Get Life in Prison for Self-Defense Against Islamic Mob

Now, another such murder story has come up with a similar set of facts–Muslim Arabs seeking to beat a Christian Arab senseless in Dearbornistan, with “murder” being the end result.  In this case, the dead man is a Muslim, but he died as the Christian Arab man–Alexander Tom Yono (a Chaldean, which is an Iraqi Catholic) –tried to defend himself from a mob of Lebanese Shi’ite Muslim men who came to “beat the Chaldean.”

In 2007, I told you about an Ann Arbor, Michigan co-op’s vote on whether to boycott Israeli products.  Fortunately, the vote was against boycotting the Jewish State.  But the victory is that there was even a vote on this at all.  Even worse, now, an Olympia, Washington co-op voted to boycott Israel, and has removed Israeli products from its shelves.  The head of the co-op is flaunting his Judaism (and self-hatred) as an excuse for this anti-Semitic act, reminiscent of Nazi laws boycotting Jewish stores and products. Meanwhile, another store is being pressured to drop Israel’s Ahava line of beauty products. More on that later. But, first, more on the Judenrein co-op.

That Was Then . . .

This Is Now . . .

During the Holocaust, there were kapos who helped turn Jews into the Nazis.  And now there is Harry Levine of the Olympia Food Co-Op, which appears to be illegal as it violates federal law against the Arab boycott of Israel, according to Divestment Watch president, Fred Taub.

Olympia Food Co-op members will get another chance next month to discuss a controversial board decision to boycott Israeli products at its two stores.

Nine of the co-op board’s 10 members voted Thursday to participate in the international boycott. Harry Levine, a staff representative to the board, said . . . he supports it.

You know my feelings on people who name their kids dumb or pretentious names.  The dumb names remain dumb throughout their lives.  And the pretentious fancy-sounding names ultimately become common names for strippers and call girls.  Equally dumb.  Ditto for naming your kid after something you like to run on (you know who did that).

So, I was looking at the list of those running for various seats in the Michigan Legislature, as our primary is August 3rd.  And in Detroit, a guy who is running for the Michigan House of Representatives is named . . .

This is amusing.  If you’re one of the many Muslims in prison for child molestation in Michigan, it’s apparently best to tell your fellow inmates you’re a Hezbollah killer in order to scare them off (and, um, avoid getting a new boyfriend by force).

Convicted Child Molester Zouelfikar “Joe” Mahmoud Nehmeh Told Inmates He’s in Hezbollah

That’s what Zouelfikar “Joe” Mahmoud Nehmeh did.  Nehmeh was hired by fellow Wayne County (Detroit) Jail inmate Timothy O’Reilly to murder witnesses planning to testify at O’Reilly’s criminal trial for a fatal armed car robbery.  Mr. Nehmeh is serving multiple sentences for several different instances of criminal sexual conduct with children and illegal delivery/manufacture of cocaine. He committed criminal sexual conduct in 1992, twice in 2004, and twice in 2007.  He had sex with a 14-year-old girl and sodomized a 10-year-old.  He snuck in and out of the Canadian/U.S. border before being caught re-entering the U.S. again in 2007.

Check this out:

Nehmeh said he met O’Reilly at the Wayne County Jail in late 2007 after O’Reilly had been indicted in the robbery.

Embarrassed to tell O’Reilly that he was there on child molestation charges — he is serving an eight- to 15-year state prison sentence — Nehmeh said he told O’Reilly he was accused of assassinating people for Hizballah, which the U.S. government had designated as a terrorist group.

Couldn’t care less about Lindsay Lohan, but I post most Jake Byrd videos from “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” because they’re usually funny, and I like the way he mocks celebrities and our celeb-obsessed culture.  For those who don’t know, “Jake Byrd” is really Kimmel writer/comedian Anthony “Tony” Barbieri.  He poses as pet store owner and scandalized celebrity superfan Jake Byrd.  News operations from FOX News to CNN to the New York Times have actually interviewed and reported on him, as if he’s actually for real.  His best video was his invasion of a pro-ObamaCare rally.  This isn’t his best work, and I hope you’ll forgive me the very risque NSFW jokes (which aren’t funny).  Still, the video is kinda funny.  Note that Michael Lohan, Lindsay Lohan’s absentee, drug abusing father, is represented there by Lisa Bloom, the daughter of Gloria Allred.  Like mother, like daughter, these two liberal whores with law degrees never miss an opportunity to insert themselves into a scandal and get their mugs on the screen.  More Jake Byrd videos here.

Remember the “Seinfeld” episode in which Jerry’s landlord installed low-flow showerheads in everyone’s shower?  Jerry and his neighbors all had flat hair and a not-so-clean feeling, and several of his neighbors bought regular-flow showerheads from Serbs who also sold illegal guns from the back of their van. Kramer’s black market regular-flow showerhead turns out to be a circus elephant showerhead with too much pressure.

Well, it’s no longer just the stuff of comedy, since Barack Obama is now doing this to the rest of the country.  It was bad enough when Bill Clinton forced people to use low-flow toilets.  But this is far worse.

Gene Goforth sells showerheads—big ones, like the Raindance Imperial 600 AIR. Selling for as much as $5,457, it has a 24-inch spray face, 358 no-clog channels and a triple-massage option. “You can just stand under it, and it helps your psyche,” says Mr. Goforth, who has one in his home.

“Seinfeld” Shower Now “Barack Obama”-Imposed Shower . . .

Now, Mr. Goforth is in a lather over the federal government’s tough new line on water-hogging showerheads, part of a new effort to enforce energy-and water-use regulations. . . .

In 2008, I told you about the anti-Semitic, anti-Israel lies of Pat Condell, a bigot, who hates Jews and Christians as much as he claims to dislike Muslims.  Sadly, people don’t get that.  And they continue to send around some of his videos, merely because he says things against Islam.  Like I always say, there are as many sheep on the right as on the left, and they are equally as dangerous.  Here’s a tip:  the enemy of my enemy is sometimes just . . . my enemy.  Not my friend.

But many self-appointed prominent anti-jihadists continue to promote and celebrate this liar and post and present his videos.  Some of these people are well aware of Condell’s anti-Semitism and anti-Israel lies, and others, who should know better, simply never do their homework and just can’t be trusted.  All of them have one thing in common:  they are frauds.  Learn which phony counter-jihadists are promoting anti-Semitic Israel-hater and anti-Christian bigot Pat Condell.  Read all of the details at The JIDF, who has an excellent piece and screen caps showing you what I mean.  And what’s also very interesting is the incestuous relationship which we discovered between them all.  When you give them money,  you are helping promote this Jew- and Christian-hating Israel-hater and liar.  Scamela & Slobbert alert.

One of my favorite American retailers is Baskin-Robbins.  Because of the high-calorie content of the product, I don’t patronize it much, but I love the company’s story. Founded by two Jewish Americans, brothers-in-law Burt Baskin and Irvine Robbins, the chain developed as a result of Burt Baskin’s’ service in the U.S. Navy during World War II. He made ice cream and developed different flavors for his fellow troops, who enjoyed them.  (Irv Robbins served in the U.S. Army during World War II.)  Today, the ice cream retail giant is all over the world including in Saudi Arabia, where they hate “evil Zionists” like Baskin and Robbins, but love Baskin-Robbins. Muslims would never be hypocrites, right?

Now B-R is retiring five flavors, including French Vanilla. Say it ain’t so. Sometimes the plain flavor with a tinge of high-class creamy richness tastes good. The other retirees: Caramel Praline Cheesecake, Campfire S’mores, Apple Pie a La Mode, and Superfudge Truffle. Mmm . . .

Today is the Jewish fast day of “Tisha B’Av,” which means the Ninth of Av (a month on the Jewish calendar).

It marks the destruction of the Jewish Temple–both of them and many other tragedies in Jewish history, which all occurred on this day in the Jewish calendar. Tisha B’Av 1914 (August 1, 1914) was the day World War I broke out, setting the stage for World War II and the Holocaust. On the eve of Tisha B’Av 1942, the Nazis’ mass deportation of Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto began. Most were sent to their deaths at the Treblinka Nazi death camp. Just after Tishah B’Av 1994 concluded, Hezbollah and Iran bombed the Jewish community center of Buenos Aires (Asociación Mutual Israelita Argentina), Argentina, killing 86 and wounding at least 300 others.

I’ve been fasting since sundown last night, and the fast ends tonight at nightfall. It ends up being just under 25 hours of no food or liquid. The no food part isn’t the big deal, since I’m not from the big eaters, especially during the summer. It’s the no liquid part (and not being able to eat fruit) that’s tough. On fast days–especially this one, in the midst of the hot summer–I ultimately get very thirsty and wish I could drink just some water or unsweetened tea. A 7-Eleven Slurpee would definitely hit the spot, right now.

So, it’s the middle of the summer, and your family and kids need something to do.  You decide to take them to an amusement park.  Best to avoid Six Flags . . . unless you’re Muslim.  If you are, the red carpet is rolled out on the most interesting of dates, September 12th.  I’m sure that this is the day after 9/11 is just coincidence, right?

They’ve had Muslim day at other Six Flags parks before (and I’ve written about it–employees were told not to wear shorts, “out of respect” for Islam). And that’s objectionable enough. But the date is just rubbing our faces in it. Check out the Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor, Chicago events calendar, above (thanks to Pat Campbell of KFAQ and Joe Scialfa of WTMJ for the tip).  They do have “Catholic Family Day,” too, not just “Muslim Family Day.”  But the whole thing is ridiculous, especially the day for Muslim Family Day.  I have a few questions:

1)  Why the heck does any amusement park have special days based on religion?

2)  Will they have Hari Krishna Family Day?  Wiccan Family Coven Day?  Jonestown, Guyana Survivor Family Day?  Why Not?  Why are they discriminating against these religions, yet honoring Muslim families?  Do they have to murder 3,000 Americans using planes and try it again using underwear, in order to get recognition?
