Austin Independent School District: Stop Feeding Your Children Breakfast

by Scott Horton | Sep 4, 2019 | Blog

This morning on the 590 AM KLBJ radio news I heard them read a press release from the AISD asking parents to stop packing lunches for their kids, and — I swear I’m not making this up — asking them also to stop feeding their children breakfast, and to leave that up to the public schools instead, so they can ask for more money from the federal government to buy better food later.

They had no idea that this was shameful, horrible, cynical, corrupt, embarrassing. This is just how business is done in Nazi/Commie America in the 21st Century. What’s the problem?

Update: Here’s partial confirmation, a TV spot today about the first part about lunch at least.

Judaism, Zionism, and the Dual-Loyalty Charge

by Sheldon Richman | Sep 4, 2019 | Blog, Foreign Policy

Zionists, that is, Jewish nationalists, who hold that Jews qua Jews constitute something more than a religious community, open themselves up to the dual-loyalty charge. And that is exactly what the majority non-Zionist Jews warned against from the start.

As Joseph Levine writes:

It’s particularly ironic that Zionists should be making this charge [that dual-loyalty is an anti-Semitic trope]. When [Howard] Lovy (along with many others…) refers to the “ancient specter of Jewish disloyalty”, I take it he means in particular the standard anti-Semitic charge during the 18th and 19th centuries in Europe over the Emancipation of Jews from the ghettoes and their integration into civil European society as full citizens with full rights. Anti-Semites considered Jews a nationality, a people, a race, and as such they could never be truly assimilated into European society. The liberal democratic argument in response was to say that Jews can just as much be English, French, German, etc. as members of any other religious community. French Jews, on this view, are as legitimately considered full French citizens as French Catholics and Protestants. Judaism is a religion, not a nationality.

But of course Zionism was founded on the Romantic nationalist idea that Jews really are a people apart from other peoples, and so historically shared a general outlook on the question of the relations between collectives and individuals with the right-wing and anti-Semitic camps. Yes, we are a people apart, argued the Zionists, and that’s why we deserve to have a homeland and state of our own. That this position leads inexorably to worries about “dual loyalty” is evident from the response to Zionism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries from leaders of the Jewish community throughout Europe and the US that the doctrine of Jewish nationhood is extremely dangerous for the position of Jews in these countries. They flat out rejected the Zionist-nationalist framework largely because it did rationalize the charge of dual loyalty. So, for Zionists and their supporters to now trot out this charge of anti-Semitism in the guise of “dual loyalty” is hypocritical and cynical.

So let’s have no more of this hypocrisy, okay?

Year Zero: Mob Tactics

by Tommy Salmons | Sep 3, 2019 | Blog, Year Zero

In Episode 62 Tommy looks at the death of Frank Olson at the hands of the CIA. For over 60 years the death of his father has tormented Eric Olson, Frank’s eldest son, and after exhuming the body in 1994 forensics concluded Frank had been murdered in 1953. Today the government’s story still persists – Frank Olson was slipped LSD as an experiment and he jumped from a 13 floor hotel window. But some people know the truth. “The old timers love it. The tradecraft won.” Seymour Hersh jeered at the thought of the truth being hidden for so long, but what’s good for the CIA isn’t necessarily good for freedom.

The Good The Bad And The Ugly – Democrat Candidates Answer Foreign Policy Questions

by Steven Woskow | Sep 3, 2019 | Blog

The Council On Foreign Relations has asked each Democratic candidate for President 12 questions on foreign policy. Not all of the candidates have responded yet, but since it is CFR, I am confident they will. A mixed bag of answers. The one question they are all consistently bad at answering is on the issue of Israel and Palestine. They all call for a two state solution which is never going to happen. Neither Tulsi Gabbard or Elizabeth Warren have responded yet

Cop Murders Man, Wounds His Parents, Judge is Guilty of Obstruction on Murderer Cop’s Behalf

by Scott Horton | Sep 2, 2019 | Blog

“What have you done? You’ve shot an entire family!” said the cop’s wife right after he did it. That’s how guilty he is. His own wife called him guilty right there on the spot.

But oh well whatever. He’s a government employee. He can murder whoever he wants. That’s the “law.”

The 80th Anniversary of the Start of WWII in Europe

by Scott Horton | Sep 1, 2019 | Blog

Just remember, the whole damn thing was Woodrow Wilson’s fault.

Even Winston Churchill, top suspect in the sinking of the Lusitania, later told William Griffin, editor of the New York Enquirer in August 1936 (though he later denied saying it):

“America should have minded her own business and stayed out of the World War. If you hadn’t entered the war the Allies would have made peace with Germany in the spring of 1917. Had we made peace then there would have been no collapse in Russia followed by Communism, no breakdown in Italy followed by Fascism, and Germany would not have signed the Versailles Treaty, which has enthroned Nazism in Germany.”
