After Hamas, the terrorist organization that has controlled the Gaza Strip since June 2007, unilaterally broke a cease-fire on December 19 and resumed shelling southern Israel, Israeli warplanes sprang to Israel’s defense December 27 by attacking Hamas throughout Gaza. Hamas responded immediately with “Pallywood.”

Two of the more notorious tactics used by Hamas has been the firing of rockets into the populated areas of southern Israel and the use of “Pallywood.”

The term Pallywood is credited by Jerusalem Post writer Ruthie Blum to be a neologism invented by Richard Landis in a 2005 investigative report. It claimed that the use of events staged and choreographed by the Palestinians and disguised as “news” goes back to 1982.

Chilling Video: Israeli Soldiers Beaten by "Peace" Activists Close-Up Footage of Mavi Marmara Passengers Attacking IDF Soldiers

Close-Up Footage of Mavi Marmara Passengers Attacking IDF Soldiers

Chilling Video: Israeli Soldiers Beaten by "Peace" Activists

by Jason Mattera 06/01/2010

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYjkLUcbJWo May 31, 2010 — Video taken by IDF naval boat shows the passengers of the Mavi Marmara, one of the ships in the 'Free Gaza' Flotilla, violently attacking IDF soldiers who were trying to board the ship after having sent repeated requests for the boat to change course.

Large groups of passengers surrounded soldiers and beat them with metal poles and chairs, and threw one soldier over the side of the ship. Some passengers grabbed pistols from the IDF soldiers and opened fire. As a result of the attacks, seven IDF soldiers were injured, and nine of the passengers were killed.

The 'Free Gaza' Flotilla had publicly insisted on their non-violent intentions, however their violent attack on the IDF soldiers was clearly premeditated. They had knives, metal rods, firebombs and other items ready to use.

http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=37281

Here we go again: Our neighborhood-friendly followers of the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) are back with yet another display of affection. Folks, c'mon, we know that the jihadists on board the Turkish vessel that was disrupted by Israeli commandos on Monday morning just wanted to bring "humanitarian" aid to the impoverished Palestinians suffering in the Gaza Strip. But noooo, the evil Israeli Navy had to foil the trip, and instead they instigated a riot that resulted in ten civilian deaths.

Brutes I tell you! Brutes!

Well, that's the narrative we've been hearing about the incident involving the six-ship flotilla.

Now, back to reality people: Israeli soldiers were ambushed as they were lowered by ropes from helicopters onto the decks on the Mavi Marmara. Your jaw will drop when you see this footage.

Tribune plans $16 mln in bonuses on bankruptcy exit

Wed May 26, 2010 Total program less than originally proposed By Tom Hals

http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSN2621196520100526

WILMINGTON, Del., May 26 (Reuters) - Media conglomerate Tribune Co plans to pay top managers $16.2 million in bonuses and incentives when it exits bankruptcy under its plan of reorganization, according to court documents.

About $10.3 million of the payments will go to the company's top 20 managers for hitting the top of the company's 2009 cash flow projections, according to documents filed on Monday in the Delaware Bankruptcy Court.

The company, which owns the Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times as well as radio and television businesses, also plans to pay $4.6 million to 19 managers that head the company's operating units, based on last year's performance.
Five of those managers are also getting bonus payments under the cash flow-based program.

The company has been operating in bankruptcy since 2008 and has enjoyed a rebound with the stabilizing economy. Only two managers of operating units will not receive a bonus payment for the 2009 performance.

Westminster, Md. — Local residents were startled last week upon learning that a shocking abduction had taken place on Main Street in broad daylight at the downtown Westminster branch of the Carroll County Public Library.

A “library associate,” Chile Rose, had been spidernapped!

The alarm first rang out at 4:13 p.m. on Wednesday of last week that “Library Associate Chile Rose”

Julie Bykowicz: O'Malley's daughter, 18, found unconscious, briefly hospitalized

May 28, 2010|By Julie Bykowicz, The Baltimore Sun

The day after Gov. Martin O'Malley's 18-year-old daughter was briefly hospitalized, apparently after drinking alcohol, the first lady called the incident a "teachable moment."

"We … encourage all parents and teenagers to be safe this graduation season," Katie Curran O'Malley said in a statement Friday.

Tara O'Malley, the second-eldest of the governor's four children, graduated Wednesday from Notre Dame Preparatory School and had been at a celebration Thursday. A Baltimore police officer found her "apparently unconscious" with a friend at the Inner Harbor about 7:30 p.m. She was treated at Harbor Hospital and released that night.

Pathetic: BP Buses in Temps for Obama Photo Op

Maybe the alternate photo caption should read something like "I can see the end of my presidency from here." Well, we all figured this would be a carefully choreographed photo op for the current occupant of the White House, but little did we know having their boot firmly on the neck of BP meant the folks at BP were obliged to send in some stooges for the visuals. I guess the goons from SEIU were off harassing some bank workers or getting an early start on the holiday weekend and weren't available. Or maybe Organizing for America didn't factor stuff like this into their budget. I saw a report earlier from Grand Isle and the place was a virtual ghost town. Seems they have to pay the folks to show up.

By Stephen Janis

The ACLU has taken up the cause of a Maryland motorcyclist who is facing wiretapping charges for making a video of a traffic stop by a Maryland state trooper that he later posted on YouTube.

[...]

Graber was wearing a helmet mounted camera when a state trooper in an unmarked car pulled in front of his motorcycle on March 5, jumped out with his gun drawn and began yelling before identifying himself as a police officer. After Graber posted the video of his encounter on YouTube it received widespread media attention for what appeared to be the officer’s hostile demeanor during a routine traffic stop.

But the Maryland State police struck back, charging Graber with recording the incident without the officer’s consent, a move that has put police at odds with first amendment the ACLU said.

“Police officers doing their jobs in a public place, such as an interstate highway, cannot reasonably claim that their communications are private, “said ACLU Legal Director Deborah Jean. “This is especially true for highway stops, since many police departments – including the Maryland State Police – record the stops themselves, thus negating any possibility that the officer would reasonably believe the conversation to be private.”

State police also executed a search warrant at Graber’s home several weeks ago, taking all his personal computers and audio visual equipment.

Ruth Marcus and Joe McGinniss: A Model of Ethical Advocacy and a Cad

--Richard E. Vatz

This blog is about what some people have opined regarding writer Joe McGinniss’s moving in next door to Governor Sarah Palin to write a book on her. As described in disgustingly praising, jocular prose by Jack Shafer of Slate, McGinniss is “renting the house next door to the Palin family in Wasilla, Alaska, from which he is going to research and write his book -- that honors a long tradition of snooping. McGinniss's previous demonstration of overreach in pursuit of a story was to bid all the way to $60,101 in a charity auction on eBay last year for dinner with Palin before dropping out. Compared with that, renting a house next to Palin for five months seems pedestrian.”

What McGinniss is doing is simply despicable. No qualifiers are necessary. But, as I indicated, I am even more interested here in honor and dishonor in opinion-writing.

Read Dr. Vatz' entire piece here: http://redmaryland.blogspot.com/2010/05/ruth-marcus-and-joe-mcginniss-model-of.html

Professor Vatz teaches an advanced Persuasion class and a Media Criticism class at Towson University

As this Memorial Day approaches, the Vietnam War has been over for 35 years, and yet for many of us; the memories of lost friends, and loved ones is indelibly etched in our minds. Hopefully, you and your friends, family and loved-ones will pause Monday to remember those men and women in uniform who have gone before us and made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms and our way of life.

Over 2.7 million Americans served in the Vietnam War. Of that number, 300,000 were wounded in action, and 75,000 were disabled. Of the 58,200 names listed on the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington, 1,046 are Marylanders who made the ultimate sacrifice in the Vietnam War.

Some we knew. Some we didn’t. But they were all someone’s son or father, daughter or mother, sister or brother or aunt or uncle – or a cherished childhood friend. Their faces have been silent for many years, but they all have a story to tell.

One of the stories is that of U.S. Army Capt. Christopher Jesse Miller, Jr., who died at the age of 34 on October 29, 1966, two months after he had arrived in Vietnam August 24, 1966.
