No Ford in Israel's Future?
By Elliot Jager

With little fanfare, the Ford Foundation has initiated a phased withdrawal from its long, largely behind-the-scenes campaign to influence Israeli politics. News reports have focused mostly on the foundation's 23-year-long patronage of the New Israel Fund (NIF), whose beneficiaries include a number of pressure groups that colluded with the now-discredited Goldstone Commission Report.

But Ford's involvement in Israel's affairs goes well beyond the NIF. The foundation, today with $10.2 billion in assets, was created in 1936 by Edsel Ford, son of the automobile magnate, Nazi sympathizer, and notorious anti-Semite Henry Ford. Since then, it has disbursed a staggering $16 billion in grants largely devoted to "progressive" causes promoting "social change worldwide." In June 1967, the foundation's head was McGeorge Bundy, former foreign- policy aide to President Lyndon Johnson. On the very day Israel claimed victory in the Six-Day war, Johnson recalled Bundy to the White House to help coax Israel out of the just-liberated territories of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza.

Sobibor museum saved from closure

Sobibor museum saved from closure
Thursday, June 9, 2011 | by 

The museum at the Nazi death camp at Sobibor will remain open, after intervention by the Polish government that followed the museum's announcement it would close due to a shortage of funding.

Poland's Culture Ministry announced last week that the museum at Sobibor would remain open and be administered by the museum at the nearby Majdanek death camp.

"Holocaust survivors were relieved to learn that Polish authorities have reversed course and have agreed to reopen the Sobibor museum. Its closure was a moral taint and unworthy of Poland, which itself suffered so grievously under the Nazi yolk," Elan Steinberg, vice president of the American Gathering of Holocaust Survivors and Their Descendants, said in a statement.

About 20,000 people a year visit Sobibor. Some 250,000 people, mostly Jews, were killed there during the Holocaust. — jta

Israel will Train Italian Teachers to Teach About Holocaust

Israel will Train Italian Teachers to Teach About Holocaust
Sivan 11, 5771, 13 June 11 08:45
by Gil Ronen

(Israelnationalnews.com)  

Education Minister Gideon Saar and his Italian counterpart, Mariastella Gelmini, signed cooperation agreements Monday for training Italian teachers in Holocaust education, and for bilateral youth exchanges. The agreements were signed in the course of today's joint Israeli-Italian government meeting in Rome.

 

The agreement on training Italian teachers in Holocaust education is the first of its kind. The Italian Education Ministry will, on an annual basis, select teachers to attend special training at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem. These teachers will then teach the subject in Italian secondary schools.  Previous training in teaching the Holocaust has been carried out in non-governmental frameworks.  

 

Minister Saar said that, "Enhancing Holocaust studies around the world, especially in Europe, constitutes a bulwark against forgetting and denying the Holocaust. 

 

According to the second agreement, a joint steering committee will be established to work on advancing bilateral youth exchanges. Education Minister Saar said that, "It is important to strengthen the deep links between Italy and Israel by boosting the brave friendship between our peoples.  Friendly meetings between youth will help guarantee future relations."

 

Another agreement signed Monday between Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and his Italian counterpart, Franco Frattini, also provides for the advancement of bilateral cooperation in the fields of education, research and higher education.

NEWS FLASH

Report: Rep. Weiner plans to resign

Rep. Anthony Weiner is reportedly planning to resign his seat. The New York Times and CNN reported Thursday morning sources had revealed Weiner's alleged plans. The New York congressman had taken a two-week leave from the House in response to a scandal that has put him under increasing political pressure for nearly three weeks. Weiner had said he wanted to speak with his pregnant wife, Huma Abedin, before deciding whether to resign. She returned to Washington early Wednesday from a trip to Africa with her boss, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

    Ron Paul Sues Barak Obama!!

     

    From: Lou & Bob Wynman <bobalou@wynman.com>
    Date: Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 1:02 AM


    It takes nothing less than extraordinary courage to file a lawsuit against a very popular sitting president. Especially when the lawsuit doesn't have anything to do with falling on a sidewalk or getting hit by a car in the White House driveway. No, this suit filed against President Barak Obama today Wednesday June 15, 2011 has been filed to stop an illegal invasion of a sovereign nation, the nation of Libya. This act clearly violates the Constitution of the United States.

    The suit was filed in Washington DC by Texas Congressman Ron Paul and 9 of his colleagues in the US house of representatives including  Rep. Tim Johnson. Ind., Dem. Dennis Kucinich, Ohio, Rep. Dan Burton, Ind., Rep. Jim Duncan, Tenn., Dem. John Conyers, Mich., Rep.Roscoe Bartlet, Md., Rep. Walter Jones NC, Rep. Howard Coble, NC, and Dem. Michael Capuano, Mass.

    The suit contends that Obama violated Aritcle 1, section 8, clause V of the constitution, violates (NATO) North Atlantic Treaty (ratified by congress), contends that the President committed to war under the United Nations without consent of congress and that the President used funds for this invasion previously allocated by congress for something other than this invasion.

    Meanwhile, the rest of the congress sits around grappling over the illegality of this action by the president and continue to make idol, useless threats like 'We're not gong to tolerate this", as the bombing continues. This is all happening as we remain mired in war within the boundaries of 5 nations and the rest of the world sits......watches.....and finds new ways to hate the United States while they......sit........watch.......and laugh while our nation crumbles under the weight of an oppressive regime in Washington DC, happy to continue paying for Europe's war, while the opposition party in Washington, sent to stop the socialist agenda continue their squeamish and sometimes treasonous behavior led by one of the worst house speakers in American history, crybaby John Boehner.

    I ask, is this behavior just foolish fear or planned calculation?

    In any case, Ron Paul and the others are bringing the fight to protect the constitutional law of the land to the courts and by doing so, not bargaining with war. Does anyone really doubt the motives of this true patriot, Ron Paul.

    If this is not stopped, our state of the union will be totally bankrupt to the point of third world nation as the bodies keep coming home and the American people can then .......sit........watch.......and cry while the rest of the world. .......sits. ...... ..watches .........our people suffer its self inflicted fate, "total collapse". It is at that time, we will truly need to defend our borders with pitchforks while bankrupt and who will help us?  

    Ron Paul Libyan War Is "About Commercial Business!"

    Keith Olbermann to work for Al Gore's TV station

     

    MAGAZINE PREVIEW

    America's Favorite Talking Hothead

    By 
    Published: June 15, 2011



    Fun fact from the ADL:

    On 28 July 2006, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) sent an open letter to Olbermann at MSNBC stating, "We are deeply dismayed by your ongoing use of the Nazi 'Sieg Heil' salute, both on your program and in public appearances…" The letter explains that Olbermann's use of the salute prompted many complaints from its members, including Holocaust survivors, and that any use of it "serves to trivialize the Holocaust and the six million Jews and others who died as a result of Hitler's Final Solution." The letter closed by asking Olbermann to "reconsider [his] use of the Nazi salute in the future."
