Nazis In Greece Again!

Posted on May 9, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

Among the mysteries of modern Europe is emergence of neo-Nazi parties in nations that once were invaded and destroyed by German Nazis. German Nazis murdered hundreds of thousands of Greeks and seventy years later their descendants want to dress like a Nazi and give a Nazi salute! Athens Mayor George Kaminis was handng out Easter gifts when a horde of Neo-Nazi thugs stormed in and began attacking people. They were led by MP George Germenis, a member of the neo-Nazi Golden Dawn Party. Germenis pulled out a gun and waved it around and then threw a punch at the mayor, unfortunately, his blow his a twelve year old girl.

The Golden Dawn party hates Jews, it hates Africans, it hates Muslims, but it does not hate Nazis. Is there something wrong with Greeks holding as their model Nazis who murdered their ancestors? I await a black American organization which wants to return to the good old days when white folk had slaves!

Question Mark Of Syria

Posted on May 9, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

There are Republicans in Congress who are itching to send American forces into Syria in order to crush the regime of President Bashar al-Assad. At this point in time, Assad is supported by Iran, Russia, and Hezbollah. At least 3,000 Hezbollah fighters are in Syria. Opponents of Assad are secular Syrians, conservative Muslims in the Middle East and American and European which want to do something about Assad. Turkey would just love to see him depart, but Turks want this to happen without use of their armed forces. A major problem is division among anti-Assad forces. The more secular Free Syrian Army is now losing fighters to the Islamist Jabhat al-Nusra which is financed by nations such as Kuwait or Saudi Arabia. Islamist extremists have good supplies of weapons and ammunition.

Latest reports indicate that about 3,000 members of the Free Syrian Army have deserted to join Islamist extemists. The fire next time in Syria might well be an Islamist regime that seeks war with Israel. Caution is the best policy. In case Senator McCain has forgotten, the last time America rushed to judment in the Middle East we got the Iraq war.

OK, You Can Stay

Posted on May 9, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

President Obama has pledged to remove American troops from Afghanistan by the end of next year except for some remaining personnel who will continue training Afghan forces. Afghan President Hamid Karzai finally made clear that he would allow the American army to retain nine bases after most soldiers have departed the country. He did add a demand for “security and economic guarantees.” We can assume that means the American government will provide his government with billions of dollars to be used as Karzai decides. The issue of “security” raises some interesting questions. During recent weeks, Afghan and Pakistan forces have clashed since Pakistan allies are also friends of our enemies-the Taliban.

Does Karzai want a guarantee of American military aid if Afghan and Pakistan troops engage in armed conflict? Does economic aid mean that Karzai decides who gets the dough and how it is spent? If corruption was a virtue in Afghanistan, Hamid Karzai would be a saint in heaven. Too many unanswered questions connected to people who can not be trusted.

Cricket Star Strikes Out

Posted on May 8, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

Imran Khan is a famous man who became his nation’s hero on the cricket fields where he excelled doing whatever cricket stars do. I assume he swung his bat and hit the cricket ball or whatever they call the thing that is thrown. He earned millions, married gorgeous gals and enjoyed the good life. For some reason, he decided the good life included becoming involved in politics and decided t run for head honcho of the country. The gals no doubt loved him, and even so did some men. Yesterday, while giving a speech before thousands, he fell down and wound up with two minor fractures of his skull. There was no doubt it was time out time for some tea and biscuits for the star player.

He now is resting comfortably in a hospital and his campaign is temporarily halted. It actually turns out recent polls showed he increasingly was falling behind Nawaz Sharif so, most probably, this incident simply allowed him to leave the playing field a tide early. Oh well, it was a good run.

Seek President In Iran

Posted on May 8, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

The nation of Iran will shortly be holding an election to determine who will become the next president of the country. The process is simple, submit your name to the guardian council and it will decide if you can actually run for election. In America we submit our names to wealthy folk and they decide, much clearer in Iran since there is only one council and it is not the money that counts so much as your religious views. To be honest, it is not your religious views so much as how you are viewed by Ayatollarh Kahamenei. It is clear that anyone associated with the Green Movement should not bother to submit their names. Of course, one problem is they are confined to their homes and that makes difficult getting to see the guardian council members.

President Ahmadinejad can not run for re-election. However, he does want his chief of staff Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei to run. His daughter is married to the son of Mashaei which would make this a family affair election. I think there is one small problem. Khamanei does not like either the president or his chief of staff.

I strongly advice any Jews not to apply for this job.

No Voter Town

Posted on May 8, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

There are reports that God created the world and then created men and women. But, few really grasp that in creating two sexes, God never meant that each would have the same rights as the other. There is a town in Pakistan that is named, Mateela, it is a remote village and it is ruled by remote ideas. It is one of 564 polling stations from among the 64,000 in which not a single woman has ever cast a ballot. Men decide, and men have decided that women are not capable of being able to vote. The evidence of this wise decision is clear, just check the Gross National Product of Pakistan, check its record of peace and prosperity and the only conclusion one can arrive at is-don’t let women vote if you seek peace and prosperity for your nation.

Yar Mohammed, a village elder insists the decision to prevent women from voting is a public health one. “We stop our women from going to polling stations because we think if they do, men would tease them by staring or touching them.”

I wonder if it is OK for a man to touch a man?

Don’t Vote-Live!

Posted on May 7, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

The only certainty in the nation of Pakistan is the presence of some group which is angry at the government and wants to break away. The people of Baluchistan have been fighting for years to have their province become an independent nation. There will be a vote for the new parliament and president of Pakistan, but the folk of Baluchistan do not want to vote for these people, they want to vote to break away from the entire disarray that is known as-Pakistan. So, the message in Baluchistan is -vote if you want to get killed. On the other hand, there are folk in Baluchistan who insist people should vote for parties that want to secede from the entity of Pakistan.

In other words, you may decide to vote to secede which might anger someone who does not want any voting. Some actually believe they can get their own country by voting, others want it by the barrel of a gun. Ah life, in dear old Pakistan.

Wither Egypt?

Posted on May 7, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

During the past two years Egypt has moved from a nation under the authority of a dictator who did not want Islamist to have power to a society whose leaders are Islamists who seek to impose their brand of the Muslim religion upon all Muslims and Coptic Christians as well. Salafi Islamists seek to create a society in which imams and clerics decide the lives and behavior of individuals. Of course, Egypt depends upon a large tourist trade in order to provide jobs and money for the government. A typical tourist from Europe wants to dress as he/she desires, wander beaches clad in skimpy bathing suits and at night sip alcoholic drinks. If these delights are not present, Egypt can kiss goodbye its tourist trade.

So, how does the regime of President Morsi handle this contradiction? Do they allow Salafi Muslims to impose Sharia law -no alcohol, no bikini, women baring all– or do they prefer a stagnant economy? The modern dilemma for Egypt.

Jews In War

Posted on May 7, 2013 by Fred Stopsky | Leave a comment

For most people, the word,Israel, conveys a strong military power and people who use force whenever they deem necessary. However, from the Diaspora in the first century until World War I and World War II, Jews were not noted for their military ability. Over 1.5 million Jews fought in World War II with 550,000 in the US Army, 500,000 in the Russian army and 30,000 in British units including the Jewish Brigade from Palestine. Recently opened archives in Moscow reveal that Jews were at the highest command level during World War II even though dictator Joseph Stalin attempted to hide from the Russian public that Jews were active participants in combat. He preferred the myth that Jews were lazy parasites who allowed others to fight for Russia.

Perhaps, it is time for Israel to cease displaying its fighting spirit and recognize that peace and caring are also Jewish virtues.
