interesting term “flaccid zionism” – but, sadly, a thing of the past since Dr Gill Samuel’s team at Pfizer synthesized sildenofil citrate (viagra).

“has the site been cyber attacked before?”
I remember a while back the same thing happened to the layout on the comments section and you posted to the editors mentioning it, can’t remember which thread though, think it was one of Paul’s.

“Good, everything appears back to normal now.”

seems the site had been ddos attacked.

“100,000 HITS IN 100 MINUTES CRASHED THE SITE. WE DON’T KNOW YET IF GENUINE INTEREST OR DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACK. OUR BRILLIANT WEBHOSTS HAVE QUADRUPLED THE RESOURCE, BUT IF YOU CAN HELP TAKE THE STRAIN BY REPOSTING I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL.”

has the site been cyber attacked before? it’s the first time i am aware of. funny how israel’s tools do that now, after laura stuart and khalid amyreh have left.

@Roy
Not sure where this’ll come up on the comments as the set-up appears to have a glitch this end. Tried to find your SA article to post it there but couldn’t find it. Anyway here’s a funny/weird unintentionally ironic article from the jewish chronicle about a jewish peace lovin’ arms dealer whose descibed with;
“He also realised in the wake of Mandela’s release from jail that there was potential to make large amounts of money from what he calls, the “peace-keeping industry”.”

I know everyone is accustomed to thinking of Israel as the perfect Jewish and democratic state. However, I have discovered their misdeeds and hypocrisy.

Although they claim not to produce ham, they have a Turkey product that tastes very much like ham. It seems that they are trying to find a way to get around international (Jewish) law.

I know of no other misdeed that they have done, but if that’s not acting with impunity, I don’t know what is.

I consider myself a pro-Semite Aunty Zionist flaccid Zionist, but who cares whether I’ve fooled you? As long as I’ve fooled myself, that’s all that matters. That’s one of the main pillars of flaccid Zionism.

I don’t speak for the others. I am personally not interested in your “real” name.
Fool me once, who-Me, ariadna are all internet names and if yours is also one, so be it, who cares? I certainly could not care less.
Given names are informative only anecdotally, like that of the boy named Tylenol because his mother considered him a headache.
When I asked “who are you really?” I didn’t mean it to sound like “Ihre Papiren bitte!” What puzzled me was this:
From one post to another and sometimes within the same post you don’t manage to stay in character, which is– I feel–what puzzled fool me.
Your pieces mix what appears to be a defense of Israel with slips into critical remarks about it. This is what makes me suspicious that under the guise of a peace and justice lover you may very well be a poorly disguised anti-semite. There! I said it. No mystery there, just confusion.
You are IMO an anti-semite, anti-Israel propagandist who pretends to be a critic of Israel’s enemies while pretending to be a satirist of Israel while pretending to be Barb Weir.
But as you see now, as you are chewing your nails in frustration, you have not fooled me.

“Why is there not equal interest in the identity of who_me, which is plainly a false name”

i’m going to have to take exception to that. false name my boofy! it’s not my fault your limited language and writing symbols are not able represent the sounding of how i am called. i tried transliterating the best i could, but there simply isn’t a symbol for the sound in my language of one part, so i picked _ , the rest are more or less about right.

What’s the big mystery? Why is there not equal interest in the identity of who_me, which is plainly a false name, although perhaps merely an alternate spelling of Hu Mi. Same with “fool me once…” Fulmiwantz? What parent would give their child such a name?

You may have noticed that one of the pieces (The Kindness of Banks) that I posted was actually written by my friend Penin Diaz. If you like it, I can post a few more of his, with a thought to possibly making him a regular contributor, if he is interested. However, I would not expect him to contribute too often because of his busy schedule and because English is not his native language, although he speaks and writes it very fluently.
