    AIPAC gets Trash to pardon a Federal felon

    Trump and the Meat Tycoon: Backstory to a Commutation

    After he served 8 years of a 27-year sentence for money laundering, kosher meatpacking executive Sholom Rubashkin had his sentence commuted.

    Initial charges against Agriprocessors’s employees included

    harboring illegal aliens,

    use of child labor,

    do ent fraud,

    iden y theft,

    physical and sexual abuse of workers,

    unsafe working conditions,

    wage and hour violations, and

    shorting workers’ pay.

    According to the search warrant, one thousand discrepancies between worker names and social security numbers occurred in three years.

    There was even a methamphetamine production plant existing within the slaughterhouse, sanctioned by management.

    Agriprocessors’s owner, Aaron Rubashkin; his son Sholom; and others,

    the charges were dropped as prosecutors unspooled elaborate financial wrongdoing at the plant, which they pursued instead.

    In 2008, Sholom Rubashkin was convicted of eighty-six counts of federal-bank fraud in connection with loans to the company, including fabricating fake collateral for loans, ordering employees to create false invoices, and laundering millions through a secret bank account in the name of Torah Education, reported the New York Times.

    Like every less bully, Trash "hits back" knowing he won't suffer, but he's killing kids, like a true Repug

    Trump Makes the Crisis Worse for Palestinian Refugees

    “Any reduction of aid would be a death sentence for refugees in Gaza.”

    Trump retaliated

    by cutting US financial support to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) by more than 50 percent.


    “A Death Sentence” for Gazan Refugees


    The US cutback in aid to UNRWA
    critically threatens the access of Palestinian refugees to food, health care and education.

    Pastor Hagee from SA gonna speak. Says Trump will go down in political immortality. Did orange guy get the implication of the underlined in the statement?

    As far as the Palestinians in the West Bank and Jerusalem, the following article is very good. For so long the Palestinians have been funded from other Arab nations for violence, yet these nations don’t give a about the Palestinians. Yassir Arafat, Hamas, Fahtah, have all taken money from outside interests while their people suffer.

    Good breakdown on the people wanting non-violent protests, Ghandi and Mandela inspired...

    https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2018/...082001713.html

    The liberal Israeli public, who recognize and are sympathetic to the cause, have been buried by Gaza and the West Bank organizations being funded by people who don’t give a about peace as long as the Palestinians rocket or stab Israelis. This has led to Bennie and the jets ruling. Arafat stole his people’s money, yet the old Palestinians still have his picture on the crumbling bedroom wall. This is why younger intellectuals can be so crucial in peace. Or can bury a movement if they go to violence. You want to hang on to 1948, you want to hang onto the stupid Arab states who lost territory with idiotic military endeavors, you get Benji to deal with. The Palestinians put their faith in Arab dictators who did not give an F about them. Used them as fodder.

    "WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate candidate Mitt Romney of Utah says a prominent Baptist minister shouldn't be giving the prayer that opens the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem because he's a "religious bigot."

    In a tweet Sunday night, the former Massachusetts governor and 2012 Republican presidential nominee criticized Dallas minister Robert Jeffress for his remarks about Jews, Mormons and Islam......

    Historic Christianity has taught for 2,000 years that salvation is through faith in Christ alone. The fact that I, along with tens of millions of evangelical Christians around the world, continue to espouse that belief, is neither bigoted nor newsworthy,: Jeffress said in the tweet,

    The role of Jeffress, pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas, a Southern Baptist megachurch, underlines the significance of the Jerusalem event as an appeal to Christian conservatives, part of President Donald Trump's base of supporters......

    How about no prayer

    Trash-fellator, wealthy grifter Jeffres was chosen to rub his Biblical-hate in as many faces as possible.

    Not well since they don’t try it.


    What’s this method called?

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/14/w...s-embassy.html

    Near Gaza City, a voice on a loudspeaker urged the crowd forward: “Get closer! Get closer!”
    The charge was often led by women dressed in black, waving Palestinian flags and urging others to follow.

    The atmosphere grew more charged after midday prayers, when more than 1,000 men gathered under a large blue awning. Officials from Hamas and other militant factions addressed the worshipers, urging them into the fray and claiming — falsely, to all appearances — that the fence had been breached and that Palestinians were flooding into Israel.


    Under urging protester forward despite the risks.

    The leaders of Hamas, Fatah, Yassir Arafat stopped living like their people when the money rolled in. They sold out to violence for cash. Pinprick missles from Gaza and suicide calls. Israel is, especially now with Trump, perfectly able to supply blood.

    NYT's Thomas Friedman Explains How Trump Screwed Up the Israel Embassy Deal:

    'They're Laughing at Him'

    Our 'Art of the Deal' president made a really bad one.

    Trump had promised peace in the Middle East,

    and assigned son-in-law Jared Kushner to achieve it. Yet, Friedman noted

    they've already bungled their shot at any kind of deal.

    He argued that Trump had a chance to make a deal for the embassy by demanding Israel give a little too. Friedman suggested the deal be to "freeze all Israeli settlements in densely-populated areas in the West Bank, to preserve that zone for the two-state solution" in exchange for the new capital and embassy.


    Cooper noted that example "would have been the Art of the Deal," citing Trump's famous book.


    "That would have been the Art of the Deal.

    Trump did the Art of the Giveaway," Friedman retorted.

    He could have a leverage. Instead

    he gave away the most valuable diplomatic real estate in the Middle East treasure box and he gave it away for free.

    Believe me, in jerusalem they are laughing at him.

    In the Arab world they're laughing at him.

    They can't believe what a sucker he was to take that bait and give it away for free

    when he could use it,

    he could have used it for leverage to truly advance the peace process."

    Why Paraguay?

    https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...alem-1.6099346

    From Israel’s own oldest newspaper.

    And I hold to the claim that the Arab States intent on funding suicide elements within legitimate rallies,and BN, get their lifeblood from the same backwards hate money. The money that buys violence to perpetuate its own existence. Arab leaders and Iran have traditionally not given a about Palestinians, and either has the right in Israel. The most legitimate talking points concerning the Palestinian situation come from fresh grass roots Palestinian movements, and the Israeli left.

    The ideal situation would be a UN recognized Palestinian Embassy to the UN in East Jerusalem.

    Problem is that their is no legitimate Palestinian group to bargain with because they have all been bought off or killed. So Israel can claim there is no legitimate Palestinian government or organization. They need leaders who live among (live and feel the poverty) them who can’t be bought so they actually can actually represent the situation as it now stands. These elements exist. But both extremes want them dead or neutered.

    NEW HOUSE BILL WOULD EMPOWER DONALD TRUMP TO PUNISH U.S. COMPANIES THAT BOYCOTT ISRAEL

    THE HOUSE COMMITTEE on Foreign Affairs unanimously passed a measure on Thursday that would give the Trump administration power to decide how to punish U.S. companies that engage in or promote boycotts of Israel — including through criminal penalties.

    Royce’s effort to move his version out of the Foreign Affairs Committee is part of a push to reinvigorate Capitol Hill’s efforts to use statutory means to clamp down on the growing movement to boycott, divest from, and sanction the Jewish state for human rights violations against the Palestinians.

    the most dangerous version of the bill yet, because it delegates the lawmaking power to the Trump administration.

    bill to direct the administration to issue regulations that prohibit U.S. companies from involvement with the BDS movement, as it is known.

    The bill covers those companies that attempt to “comply with, further, or support” United Nations or European Union calls for a boycott of Israel, including merely by “furnishing information” about them.

    “consistent with the enforcement practices” of the 1979 Export Administration Act — which allows for a range of

    civil and criminal penalties
    topping out at a maximum of $1 million fine and 20 years in prison.

    https://theintercept.com/2018/06/28/israel-boycott-law-bds/

    Repugs letting AIPAC dictate, aka BUY with their $10Ms donations, American foreign policy.

    So American foreign is now being run by Pootin and Jews
