We're all Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine!by Steven Plaut
Just in time to accompany the Winograd Report!
  Iran is threatening to nuke the Jews, the Pestilinians are on the rampage, anti-Semitism is booming all over the world, it is a drought year, the stock market is in trouble. But the Israeli government is right on top of things: The Israeli government has issued an official apology to the Beatles for canceling their concert trip back in 1965. For you Tikkun readers, the Beatles are of course better known as the Four Patriarchs. The story does recall the Bolshevik micro-control that the Mapai socialists exercised arbitrarily back then. The Mapai geezers decided that Beatles music was harmful to the pioneering spirit of Israeli youth, unlike unemployment and bolshevik state planning of the economy. Speaking of Israeli Bolshevism, interesting to not who is opposed to it: Amnon Rubinstein! Meanwhile, now that the Beatles are the top item on Ehud Olmert's national agenda, my poetic juices go a-stirring. To the tune of Yellow Submarine comes: "We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine"!!! (Just in time to accompany the Winograd Report!) In the land where Jacob's born,
Lived a man who failed to see,
And he sold us down the creek,
with his brain of soya bean,
So he waved the banner white,
and appeased the terror spleen,
Jews to swim soon 'neath the waves,
All thanks to that Wolverine,
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine,
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine.
And our friends are all aboard,
While the jihad grows next door,
And the cabinet sits and plays.
(Trumpets play)
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine,
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine.
(Full speed ahead, Mr. Nasrallah, full speed ahead!
Full speed over here, sir!
Appeasement station! Appeasement station!
Aye, aye, sir!)
Olmert lives a life of ease,
Every one of us, condemned to bleed,
Sky of blue and sea of green,
He's a yellow wolverine.
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine,
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine.
(fading)
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine,
We are Ruled by a Yellow Wolverine,
Yellow Wolverine, Yellow Wolverine.

Comrades in Arms and Misplaced 'Compassion'by Steven Plaut
A few days ago it was the 60th anniversary of the massacre of the "Lamed Heh" or the 35 Jewish fighters attempting to relieve the besieged Gush Etzion settlements in January of 1948. Several items appeared recently in the Hebrew press, and my own article on the event appeared in the Jewish Press. Briefly: 'Iin January 1948, Gush Etzion was surrounded by Arab militias. Jerusalem itself was also besieged and would soon be cut off and starved. An Israeli army did not yet exist; instead, a number of ragtag and poorly equipped Jewish militias attempted to defend the Jewish areas against the attackers. In cases where the Jewish militias failed, captured civilians were generally massacred by the Arabs. Many of the murdered Jews were Holocaust survivors. 'The Jerusalem militias sent out a company of 38 young men, half of them students from Hebrew University, to relieve the besieged Gush Etzion villages. It shows the desperation of the Israeli Jews at the time that a company of 38 people was considered a major reinforcement. The fighters carried heavy packs of food and ammunition, and so proceeded slowly. On the way to Gush Etzion, one militiaman fractured his ankle and was taken back to Jerusalem by two others, leaving the company with 35 fighters. 'They marched by night, led by two experienced scouts. But before reaching their goal, they were discovered by an elderly Arab shepherd. (A British version of events later had them detected by two Arab women shepherds.) The militiamen grabbed the shepherd, but were then faced with a moral dilemma. Some proposed shooting him on the spot, because, they said, if he were released he would immediately alert the Arab militias in the vicinity, who would attack the relief company. War is war, they argued, and the lives of hundreds of people depended on the success of their operation. 'Others among the Jewish militiamen objected. We cannot just kill him in cold blood, they said. Our military operation must be ethically pure. And we can't even tie him up and leave him in a cave - he might die there slowly, or he might escape and alert the Arabs. The shepherd (or shepherds in the alternative version) swore on all that was holy that if released, he would not breathe a word. In the end, the Jewish militiamen decided to release the shepherd. The shepherd immediately ran to the nearest village housing the Arab militias and alerted them to the presence of the Jews. The Arabs attacked the outmanned and outgunned Jews. Every single Jewish militiaman was massacred. Their bodies were horribly mutilated. Later, the Arabs demanded money from the British in return for the corpses. 'Even worse, the Gush Etzion villages were never relieved or reinforced. Without reinforcements, those villages eventually fell to the onslaught of the Arab marauders and the regular Jordanian army (the Arab Legion). When Kfar Etzion, the largest of the villages, fell, virtually the entire Jewish civilian population was massacred, 250 people in all. Only three Jews survived.' In June 2005, a group of US Navy Seals were operating in Afghanistan against the Taliban, attempting to rescue other Americans, when they similarly were detected by three shepherds, one a child. They allowed the shepherds to go free. They alerted the Taliban. All but one of the Americans were killed. Americans and Israelis are comrades in arms fighting Islamofascist terror, and sometimes also suffer from the same misplaced "compassion."

Israel Leftist Collaborating with Holocaust Deniersby Steven Plaut
Gilad Atzmon is not exactly a household name in Israel. He is an Israeli ultra-leftist who lives in England, where he works as a saxophone player. He is also one of the worst anti-Semites on the planet. He is on record calling for burning down synagogues. He is so openly anti-Semitic that most British anti-Semites and anti-Zionists want nothing to do with him and consider him an embarrassment. When some British Trotskyites invited Atzmon to toot his horn at their event, they were loudly denounced by other members of the British moonbatocracy. Atzmon is widely considered to be a Holocaust Denier, and openly insists that the world needs MORE Holocaust Deniers. He proclaims the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" to be factual and reliable. So naturally the leftwing Neo-Nazi web magazine Counterpunch adores him and runs him and his fulltime Italian Neo-Nazi groupette.  Now the media in Germany this week are buzzing about the conviction of one Sylvia Stolz for Holocaust Denial. She had been the lawyer for convicted Neo-Nazi and Holocaust Denier Ernst Zendel, who was jailed in Germany after being deported from Canada. DW-World reports:
'Judges in the western city of Mannheim sentenced lawyer Sylvia Stolz to three and a half years in prison on charges that include inciting racial hatred, and barred her from practicing law for five years. Stolz made the remarks in 2006 while representing "historian" Ernst Zündel, who was handed a five-year prison term in Germany last February for repeatedly disputing the Holocaust as a historical fact. The 44-year-old also signed a motion during Zündel's trial with "Heil Hitler" and shouted that the lay judges deserved the death penalty for "offering succour to the enemy" -- leading the court to dismiss her." Atzmon played a crucial role in the trial of Stolz. She 'read a newspaper article to the court about the appearance of world renowned Israeli artist, Gilad Atzmon in Bochum. In a public statement, Atzmon is quoted as having said that the written history of the Second World War and the Holocaust are a “complete forgery, initiated by Americans and Zionists”.' Even more details appear on the Holocaust Denial web site based in Australia, run by the so-called "Adelaide Institute," arguably the worst Neo-Nazi group on the planet. Its site praises Atzmon and reports: 'A total revision of history worldwide is beginning as an insurrection against Jewish world dominance. As a result of this, the demand of the German Reich for reinstatement of its ability to function will be acknowledged. The realization of historical revision will then be inevitable. A few days ago, on 27 November 2005, Gilad Atzmon introduced the most radical blow that has as yet been struck against the political indoctrination forced on us. This is to be found in Exhibit No. 1 . Because he is himself a Jew and highly esteemed worldwide, his words carry especial weight. In his appeal to the Germans he is quoted as follows: “In Israel, one is imprisoned if one disagrees with official opinion.” This is particularly true with regard to the past. In his books, Gilad Atzmon attempts to “rearrange this past.” He describes the historiography of the Second World War and Holocaust, so familiar to us, as a complete falsification invented by Zionists and Americans. He shows that the real enemy was not Hitler but Stalin. The Germans must finally realize this and stop feeling guilty -- and above all, to stop feeling responsible. “It is You who are the victims” Atzmon says. He reminds the Germans that the bombing attacks on German cities took place because the Americans had plenty of bombs and wanted to use them; the same happened in Vietnam and now in Afghanistan and Iraq. He reiterates that the true evildoers of our time are George W. Bush, Tony Blair and Ariel Sharon. (Source: Ruhrnachrichten (News of the Ruhr,) Bochum, Tuesday, November 29, 2005
'The breach opened by Gilad Atzmon makes it possible to get a new understanding of what Konrad Adenauer, the first Federal Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, related in his Memoirs - Exhibit No. 6 - about the physical genocide against the German people in 1945....A few days after Atzmon's statement, a second powerful blow struck the Holocaust religion. In Mecca, the most important pilgrimage site in the Muslim world, the Iranian head of state Ahmadineschad publically acknowledged that he is a holocaust denier and proposed a highly logical solution to the Jewish question.'
