This latest is not a movie but a play.  It reveals the Jewish obsession with stereotypical ‘nazi skinheads’ in entertainment media.

The neo-Nazi skinhead evokes both fear and fascination in popular culture. While liberally minded folk may reject the racist dogma of the group, they also fetishize the militant youths in films, TV shows, and other entertainment. David Gow’s two-person play Cherry Docs confronts this revulsion and attraction head on by pairing a skinhead named Mike (Maximilian Osinski) with a liberal Jewish lawyer named Danny (Mark Zeisler), who is given the task of defending Mike after he is incarcerated for a violent crime against a Pakistani man.

Three small-town eighth-graders in Minnesota were suspended by their principal for not standing Thursday morning for the Pledge o Allegiance, violating a district policy that the principal now say may soon be rewarded to protect free speech rights.

The head of the Minnesota American Civil Liberties Union said that the school’s actions against the students are unconstitutional and his office has informed the district of that today in a strongly worded letter. “The school can’t do that; that’s illegal, “said Chuck Samuelson, the civil liberties group executive director. “Wow.”

Samuelson said that numerous U.S. Court rulings dating back to the 1940s say in “well-settled constitutional law” that students who refuse to participate in the pledge cannot be punished for refusing to participate.” STORY>>>

Anna Jarvis was never married and never had a child. But, like all of us, she had a mother. As a child, Anna sat through a Sunday School series where her mother taught on the subject, “Mothers of the Bible.” At The close of the series she heard her mother pray: “I hope someone, sometime will found a memorial day commemorating her for the matchless service she renders to humanity in every field of life. She is entitled to it.”

After her mother died in 1905, Anna Channeled her grief in a constructive manner to fulfill her mothers prayer. She launched a nationwide effort to establish an annual day for honoring mothers. In 1908, Mothers Day became a fixture in most states.

The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that there are 83 million mothers in the United States. The number of single-mother households has tripled to more than 10 million since 1970. ARTICLE>>>

BERLIN, GERMANY — A Soviet soldier heroically waves the red flag, the hammer and sickle billow above the Reichstag. Yevgeny Khaldei photographed one of the iconic images of the 20th century. But the legendary image was manipulated to conceal the fact that the Soviet soldiers were looting. An exhibition of Khaldei’s work opens in Berlin this week.

It was early on the morning of May 2, 1945 and Yevgeny Khaldei had gone to the Reichstag, the German parliament building in the center of Berlin. Three hours earlier the last German commander left in the capital had capitulated, but there was still sporadic fighting going on. Khaldei had his Leica camera with him–and a Soviet flag. MORE>>>>>

After four years and a number of embarrassing public-relations gaffes, Seattle Public Schools plans to cut its controversial Office of Equity, Race and Learning Support as part of a central office shake-up.

The move is part of the first phase of a staff reorganization aimed at saving money, helping departments collaborate more and better aligning resources with the goals in Superintendent Maria Goodloe-Johnson’s upcoming strategic plan.

The reorganization will go into effect in July and will merge some departments in the district’s “learning and teaching” division, elevate some positions and combine others. Read more »

“The police department of Champaign, Ill., is reported to be under pressure from higher authorities to increase its quota of hate crimes convictions. Brett VanAsdlen, an 18-year-old college student on a baseball scholarship, didn’t know this. On April 12 he and a friend saw two homosexuals leaning on each other and holding hands, walking toward them on the sidewalk. ‘Look at those two guys holding hands,’ Brett said to his friend and walked past them. According to Brett’s mother, the next thing he knew, one of the homosexuals (whom he perceived to be drunk) had grabbed him by the shoulder, putting his face up to Brett’s and repeatedly shouting, ‘What did you say?’ Brett told him to go away several times and then pushed him. The homosexual fell over backward. On his back, the homosexual told his partner to call the police. In eight minutes, four officers arrived. Two interviewed Brett and his friend and assured them there would be no problem. Brett had been physically accosted and detained, clearly an assault. The other two officers interviewed the homosexual, who was taken to the hospital.” Read more »

The Defense Contract Management Agency tasked with supervising maintenance work by contractors at American bases in Iraq attempted to defend itself in a written statement as did KBR, which until just last year was known as Kellogg, Brown and Root and was a subsidiary of Halliburton.

From Sunday’s NYT:

“The Defense Contract Management Agency, which is responsible for supervising maintenance work by contractors at American bases in Iraq, defended its performance. In a written statement, the agency said it had no information that staff members “were aware” of the Army alert or “failed to take appropriate action in response to unsafe conditions brought to our attention.” Read more »

This is a great example of the media and government working together to manipulate public opinion and cover up the government’s intrusion into the private lives and freedom of citizens.  Notice how this article says that the source of the complaint call is being investigated.  But later in the article it says that the complaint came from the phone number of a woman in Colorado who has made false complaints in the past.  Wouldn’t that make it impossible for this call to Texas authorities from a woman in Colorado to be a legitimate call from a 16-year-old girl in a Texas ranch?  Is there a more clearly cut case of news doublespeak?  Who wrote and edited this article?  Nobody noticed how it doesn’t make sense?

An arrest warrant has been dropped for a man thought to be the husband of a teenage girl whose report of abuse triggered a raid on a polygamous sect’s Texas compound, authorities said Friday.

CHICAGO — Thousands of immigrants and activists gathered in cities across the country Thursday to demand comprehensive immigration reform, including citizenship opportunities for the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in the U.S.

Turnout has fallen sharply since the first nationwide rallies in 2006, when more than 1 million people — at least 400,000 in Chicago alone — flooded streets and brought traffic to a standstill.

Activists hoping to re-ignite the immigration debate in time for the presidential elections say this year’s efforts are focused less on protests and more on voter registration and setting an agenda for the next president. Read more »

At issue is a fundraising luncheon held in March at London’s Spencer House, during McCain’s swing through the United Kingdom. An invitation to the event lists Lord Rothschild and Nathaniel Rothschild as hosts, and indicates the event was made possible with their “kind permission”.

Judicial Watch, a Washington organisation instrumental in the March release of Hillary Clinton’s White House schedules, has asked US election monitors to investigate whether the Rothschilds improperly sponsored the fundraiser. US political campaigns are forbidden from accepting contributions from foreign nationals. Read more »

Just what we needed, another anti-discrimination bill. 

Companies would no longer be able to use genetic information like a person’s predisposition for breast cancer, sickle cell or diabetes to make insurance or job decisions under a bill passed by Congress on Thursday.

The House voted 414-1 for the legislation a week after it passed the Senate on a 95-0 vote. The bill would bar health insurance companies from using genetic information to set premiums or determine enrollment eligibility. Similarly, employers could not use genetic information in hiring, firing or promotion decisions.

Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y., said that for years doctors have been forced to tell women whose families have a history of breast cancer to refuse genetic testing for fear of discrimination. Read more »

For Heinz Heister, presiding judge of the court where wanted concentration camp doctor Aribert Heim has been indicted, it’s a familiar refrain: What’s the point?

“There’s often people who say: ‘He’s in his 90’s, why do you bother?’” Heister told The Associated Press in a recent interview at his Baden-Baden state court office. “But his age has got nothing to do with it. It is our duty to pursue this to the best of our abilities.”

The question cited by the judge is part of what Nazi hunter Efraim Zuroff calls “misplaced sympathy syndrome” — a reluctance to go after war crimes suspects just because they’re old. Read more »

ATHENS, Greece - A Greek court has been asked to draw the line between the natives of the Aegean Sea island of Lesbos and the world’s gay women. Three islanders from Lesbos — home of the ancient poet Sappho, who praised love between women — have taken a gay rights group to court for using the word lesbian in its name. One of the plaintiffs said Wednesday that the name of the association, Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece, “insults the identity” of the people of Lesbos, who are also known as Lesbians. “My sister can’t say she is a Lesbian,” said Dimitris Lambrou. “Our geographical designation has been usurped by certain ladies who have no connection whatsoever with Lesbos,” he said. Lambrou said the word lesbian has only been linked with gay women in the past few decades. “But we have been Lesbians for thousands of years,” said Lambrou, who publishes a small magazine on ancient Greek religion and technology that frequently criticizes the Christian Church.

NEW YORK — Dozens of cats were lined up in cages at a Petco in Old Bridge, N.J., on a recent Saturday afternoon, much as they are most weekends at adoption events and shelters across the country. Percy tumbled playfully, while Parker snoozed in his litter pan, curled up with his cage mate, Alexandra. Chester gamboled about nearby.

Alexandra, a calico, and Chester, a brown tabby, received adoption applications, but Percy and Parker weren’t so lucky. They’re at a significant disadvantage in the adoption market, because they’re black.

“Black cats don’t get adopted nearly as frequently as other colors,” said Kathleen Fram, the co-chair of adoptions for the Summit Animal Rescue Association, or S.A.R.A., a nonprofit rescue group. “People just pass them by.” Read more »

CLEVELAND—A former autoworker accused of being a Nazi death camp guard has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to reject an order by the nation’s chief immigration judge that he be deported, a newspaper reported Friday.

Prosecutors initially claimed he was the notoriously sadistic guard at the Treblinka camp known as “Ivan the Terrible.” Officials later concluded he was not, but a judge ruled in 2002 that documents from World War II prove Demjanjuk was a Nazi guard at various death or forced labor camps.

A woman suspected of making false abuse claims in Colorado used a telephone number that was later used to report alleged abuse at a polygamist retreat in west Texas, according to an affidavit made public Wednesday.

It’s not yet clear whether authorities suspect Rozita Swinton, 33, of Colorado Springs, made the calls that triggered an April 3 raid of the compound. The arrest warrant affidavit released Wednesday says that several calls alleging abuse there were made using several phone numbers, including the number linked to Swinton.

The more than 400 children found at the retreat in Eldorado are now in state custody. Texas officials and lawyers have said that even if the call that prompted the raid turned out to be a hoax it would not affect their custody case because the state acted in good faith. Read more »

A federal appeals court sought compromise Monday between a liberal group demanding the names of White House visitors and the Bush administration, which says releasing the names would erode the president’s power.

If released, the documents would show how often prominent religious conservatives visited the White House and Vice President Dick Cheney’s residence, allowing a glimpse into how much influence they exerted on government policy. Read more »
