As Alan hart says in this video in the section under “the myth of legitmacy”

UNGA passed a resolution recommending partition Palestine into 2 states, 1 for the Arabs & 1 for the Jews – excl Jerusalem…..Britain was driven away by Zionist terrorist gangs….. Truman went to UN to make a new proposal, it was to make it some kind of UN trusteeship so point is this there was no UN resolution for “Israel” it was officiated, became invalid & it was when UN was again was deciding what to do that “Israel” unilaterally declared itself to be in existence. “Israel” was not given a birth certificate it has no legitimacy whatsoever.

I’ve read the whole thing, *sigh*.
Gives new meaning to the term “textbook response”.

I’m new as a posting member, but just love this site.

The piece called “Anti-semitism — an Eroded Democracy” just won we over completely – laughing my head off. well done!

I already knew I was ‘special’, since i’ve been banned from public forums for not capitalizing the word jew/called antisemitic/nazi/hater/hoper for a new holocaust/mentally ill……but i had no idea i was part of a special group with guys like Gilad Atzmon – love that guy. Ubercool.

Here’s an excerpt from The Hasbara Handbook (courtesy sourcewatch):

A Hasbara manual for students to use on US univesity campuses is now available online[2]. A summary of the techniques is provided from page 31 onwards:

Propaganda is used by those who want to communicate in ways that engage the emotions and downplay rationality, in an attempt to promote a certain message.

The manual goes on to describe seven propaganda techniques:

“Name calling: through the careful use of words, then name calling technique links a person or an idea to a negative symbol.

Glittering generality: Simply put, glittering generality is name calling in reverse. Instead of trying to attach negative meanings to ideas or people, glittering generalities use positive phrases, which the audience are attached to, in order to lend positive image to things. Words such as “freedom”, “civilization”,…

Transfer: Transfer involves taking some of the prestige and authority of one concept and applying it to another. For example, a speaker might decide to speak in front of a United Nations flag, in an attempt to gain legitimacy for himself or his idea.

Testimonial: Testimonial means enlisting the support of somebody admired or famous to endorse and ideal or campaign.

Plain folks: The plain folks technique attempts to convince the listener that the speaker is a ‘regular guy’, who is trust-worthy because the are like ‘you or me’.

Fear: Stressing that ignoring the message will likely lead to war, terrorism[3]

Bandwagon: Suggest that the stated position is mainstream and use polls to suggest this. [4]
