For first time in Israel's history, former PM jailed: Judge sentences former prime minister Ehud Olmert to 6 years in jail for his role in real-estate development corruption affair.
Former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert was sentenced to six years in prison and fined NIS 1 million in court in Tel Aviv on Tuesday morning for his role in the 'Holyland Affair', the real estate corruption case considered the largest of its kind in Israeli history.
The case marks the first time a prime minister was convicted of a felony and now, with his sentencing, the first time a former prime minister has ever been sentenced to jail time.

Call it colonialism, call it occupation - just don't call it 'apartheid'
An introduction by Gilad Atzmon: It is pretty amusing to witness Jewish shallow minds performing terminological zigzagging. For many years I have been insisting that Israel is not apartheid and has never been one. While apartheid is a system of exploitation, the Jewish State is a racially driven ethnic cleanser, it wants the Palestinians gone. Tagging Israel as a ‘colonial state’ and an ‘apartheid’ apparatus was introduced by the Jewish Left - for the obvious reason that they wanted to disguise the extent of the crime committed by Jewish nationalism. They want to convey the image that Israeli aggression isn’t really different from British, French and Dutch colonialism nor that it is different from South Africa or Southern USA Apartheid. But the truth of the matter is embarrassing. Zionism and Israeli aggression are unique phenomena.
But “if apartheid is not the right term, what is a better term?” The Jewish Left attempts to introduce a new spin, they call it now “settler colonialism” and a “pro-settler military occupation” but the truth is very simple to grasp. Being an expansionist, racist and ethnic cleanser, the Jewish State is a Nazi like operation. This is the truth the Jewish Left attempts to disguise.

‘Apartheid’ is rapidly becoming the new political term of condemnation and delegitimization in international politics. But is it truly the best description of Israel’s policies toward the Palestinians?
By Thomas Mitchell
Is apartheid an appropriate term to describe Israel’s occupation of the West Bank? In an article published on +972 late last year, Ran Greenstein argued that it is, relying on international law rather than historical grounds admitting that Israel’s occupation of the West Bank is different—but not better—than South Africa between 1948 and 1994. “Apartheid” is rapidly becoming the new political term of condemnation and delegitimization in international politics. It is rapidly replacing fascism as that term. India used to refer to the nuclear non-proliferation regime as “nuclear apartheid.” But the process is instructive.

Born Smart, Born Equal, Born Different – On The Road To Meritocracy
By Gilad Atzmon
After decades of the tyranny of political correctness driven by ID politics and Jewish sensitivities, it takes the BBC three 30 minute episodes to reveal to the Brits that genes make a difference. Some people are just born smarter.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fax09...
For some time Brits haven’t been allowed to admit to themselves that people are different, mostly because they are actually born different - a few are really smart, many are average and some are falling behind. The dominance of ‘progressive’ outlets such as The Guardian within middle class political discourse has led toward an unfortunate dismissal of an obvious scientific fact – genes and biology cause differences among people.
Despite the apologetic tone of the program and the usual cliché complaints about the Holocaust being a ‘eugenic project’, the BBC is brave to take on the topic. To start with, the program clears the smoke around the work of Sir Francis Galton, the father of Eugenic Science. The program elaborates on the historical context in which Galton’s research took place. But the program also touches the contemporary fear of British degeneration. Britain is clearly falling behind its economic competitors in its intellectual skills. British kids are not as good in science and math as they used to be.
Britain is changing direction. It is rapidly drifting away from the welfare state and an egalitarian philosophy. The BBC program reflects this change. Britain is becoming a meritocracy. British policy makers apparently believe that funds and facilities should be invested in individuals according to merit. The rapid rise of university tuition fees coupled with a withdrawal of funds from state education suggests that British leadership no longer believes in supporting the weak and the under-privileged. Instead it is supporting the development of the cognitive elite. And, it seems, membership in the cognitive elite has a lot to do with heredity. People are not becoming more clever through school or university, they are actually born smart.
In the last decade British policy makers have learned to accept that thousands of unemployed ‘gender studies’ or ‘music technology’ graduates are not going to march British society forward. Instead of thousand of universities that produce graduation certificates of questionable value, the modern state needs top scientists, genius engineers, superb economists, programmers, a few poets, less than a few philosophers, two painters and probably one who can play the fiddle exceptionally well. British policy makers have grasped that the cultivation of such a skilled elite must take biology into account.
Such a policy, once implemented, will radically change the role of education and culture. It will revise our ideas of equality, morality and the role of the State. In the new meritocratic order, people are what they are because they are born that way - social mobility becomes subject to intellectual merit. The gifted prevail and the slow fall behind, reduced into an underclass and eventually irrelevant to society.
In the new order, liability and accountability evaporate. As much as the member of the elite was born smarter, the criminal may owe his ethical failure to biology. Such a view will transform our vision of the role of education, personal history and civic duty. It is certainly going to radically revise our notions of success and failure.

Responding to Paul Larudee; Is BDS “Soft Zionist?”
By Charles E. Carlson

Mr. Omar Barghouti, Co -Founder, BDS Movement.
Dear Mr. Barghouti
I am adding my voice to Paul Larudee’s March 23, open letter to you. We have not met, I hope we do. I am informed that you were a co-founder of an organization, BDS Movement in Palestine which has morphed into a world wide network of individuals and organizations now referred to as the “BDS movement,” and that you do not run the day to day project of that network.
To review what Mr. Laradee has already said, someone in BDS, The Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions movement has materially diluted the founding purposes agreed upon by yourself and 172 organizations in 2005. The BDS Movement original “Call” urges various forms of boycott against Israel until it meets its obligations under international law by: “(1) ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantling the barrier Wall,” but this language has now been changed, apparently without notifying those of us who participate in the present, BDS movement.
The new language is very different, as Mr Larudee pointed out: the Call urges various forms of boycott against Israel until it meets its obligations under international law by: “Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands occupied in June 1967 and dismantling the Wall.” Mr. Larudee calls these words, now found on the BDS website, “Soft Zionism:” I agree.

The jewish notion of capitalism – Jacques Attali
By Romain Red
http://frenchdissidents.wordpress.com
In the following video, Jacques Attali tells a joke which, according to him, explains best what is happening in the modern financialised system!
The video is in French but we provide an English translation… Pay attention to the character’s names to fully grab Attali’s view on the financial world!
It is Shlomo who calls David:
Listen I have a big deal for you, I have a truck full of trousers and each of them is worth 1 dollar! You want them?! Great!
David takes the trousers and calls Jonathan:
Listen I have a big deal for you, I have a truck full of trousers and each of them is worth 2 dollars! You want them?! Great!
Jonathan calls shaoule and offers 3 dollars and the story goes on…
Until Moses calls Christian and says: “Listen I have a big deal for you, some trousers worth 49 dollars each.
Oh great, says Christian…
The day after Christian calls Moses saying: Listen, you sold me trousers, you really are a swindler
Moses: What do you mean a swindler?
