Speaking of letting your hatred define you . . . some leftist websites, Wonkette included, seem to have a serious antisemitism problem. Listen to this from regular blogger Alex Pareene at Wonkette:
In a stunning rocket, Rudy Jew-liani basically admitted that he doesn’t know anything at all about foreign policy — or maybe that he knows too much. In an interview with the Jew York Times, Rudy inavertendly revealed that the US has been fighting an entire extra war these last few years that only he knows about.
Lovely.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Check out this post categorized under "Jew-liani Dept." and featuring a video that makes the same reference.
Here's another post at Gawker, which features this kindly remark in honor of Yom Kippur: Jews: Always gotta be hiring other people to do your shit for you, huh?
I could wade deeper into this cesspool for a few hundred other examples, but that's enough.
This crowd's lack of decent religious or moral grounding, and lack of basic human decency, just keeps coming to the surface.
THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THE LEFT SUPPORT. ISLAMISTS ARE JUST 'MISUNDERSTOOD'.
LONDON (Reuters) - A Kurdish woman was brutally raped, stamped on and strangled by members of her family and their friends in an “honor killing” carried out at her London home because she had fallen in love with the wrong man.
Banaz Mahmod, 20, was subjected to the 2-1/2 hour ordeal before she was garroted with a bootlace. Her body was stuffed into a suitcase and taken about 100 miles to Birmingham where it was buried in the back garden of a house. Her badly decomposed body was found in April 2006, three months after the killing.
Last month a jury found her father Mahmod Mahmod, 52, and his brother Ari Mahmod, 51, guilty of murder after a three-month trial. Their associate Mohamad Hama, 30, had earlier admitted killing her. On Thursday at a pre-sentence hearing for Hama, the Old Bailey heard details about Banaz’s last moments.
Prosecutors said the three convicted men, along with two other suspects who are still at large, had carried out the killing fearing that the authorities were closing in on them. They believed Banaz had brought shame on the family by leaving her husband, an Iraqi Kurd she had been forced to marry at 17, and falling in love with Rahmat Suleimani, an Iranian Kurd.
Her former unnamed partner had raped her as well as repeatedly beating her, the court heard.
Hama, who prosecutors said had been a ringleader in the murder, was caught by listening devices talking to a friend in prison about the murder.
In the recordings, transcripts of which were relayed to the court, Hama and his friend are heard laughing as he described how she was killed with Banaz’s uncle “supervising”.
“I was kicking and stamping on her neck to get the soul out. I saw her stark naked, only wearing pants or underwear,” Hama is recorded as saying.
