Marta Fernandez CUNY -Queens College class of 1985 I c I am going to have to get up tomorrow morning and sit down and read this well and learn something!! chat lata!! Tuesday, December 30th 2008 at 11:01PM

Marta Fernandez CUNY -Queens College class of 1985 ey, you got it!! In the 70's when Menachem Began was then Israel's P.M. I was in my middle twenties-had attended a Jewish public High School we were the first integrated class-after that now disastrous busing agenda, of the 60's, I attended Queens College another Jewish enclave..so surrounding me in New York was an "air" of the poor Jews and their Holocaust. But a lot of talk also pushed back their "feel sorry for me "chatter--with talk of Zionists. One day, so young and like many folks not oriented to history-still believing the media--I always being the odd one decided to ask a Palestinian personally who owned what. He explained the history. So I know you are on point. As for being smeared as a terrorist-sympathizer,you and I know who the terrorists are. Also anti-smite, the banner waving signal "don't analyze us" so that they can stop others from finding out the truth, is beginning to lose its impact on shutting folks down like ourselves. It so happens that Jewish people really, like me, maybe there is an aura, maybe it's my ancestry in Sephardic Jewry, maybe it's my love of knowledge and my intelligence. Maybe. Yes, as you so well and eloquently stated it was THEIR land first. New York City being so international, and it has always been where you can find someone from everywhere with ease. Since that day, I have reserved opinion on the conflict--from 1975. Jewish men have been angels on my shoulder, my college teaching job which I did NOT APPLY for, as I never wanted to teach anthropology, I wanted to be free to travel the world and do my ethnographies- handed me the job on a silver platter so to speak- I cannot deny their generosity towards me, they understand me very, very well. So I must be pretty mad to write to MOVE.org and blast them for asking for money on the website that belongs to Obama for donations for all the non-profits that went down after their own Bernie Madoff fleeced them via the investment company. In speaking about their greed, their overlooking their " brother's" criminal acts, and asking Main street to "help" Wall street, well that took a lot of chutzpah! I told them I wasn't buying that anti-Semite stuff..a lot of Rabbi's in Brooklyn are child molesters,and they try to keep that inside, within the community, they are very insular..the police look the other way,because complaints are not followed through, or rescinded. You did a fine job in your analysis,can you give me permission to send it to an Obama Advisor, In D.C.? Why? because they need to know that although the Black community is silent, your analysis is based on facts, that both whites and blacks if they knew the truth would support returning the Palestine nation to the rightful owners..but through history there has been a lot of occupation and invasion--and where would the Jews go? back to the wandering Jew? as it also says in the Bible? What about their “aaliyah” movement? All those Ethiopians who now reside in Israel? Russians, Australians, etc. and as well you are right about the” European” Jews, as one of my Israeli students shared with me, it's “them” and those Orthodox Jews that stir up trouble—other wise they get along. Just for additional information since Orthodox Jews are mandated by Jewish law to have 10 children they are now filling up the welfare rosters. Ooo wee a brother I can talk about international politics with, it's been a long time.Thanks. BTW where is the Book in the Bible that says, that about Armageddon?

Marta Fernandez CUNY -Queens College class of 1985 --we both missed it--I said wandering the earth--not in Israel--which you may be right--between L.A. and NYC! Yes, they are tired.,.my 'Russian girlfriend -just flat out told me - I hate the Jews.. and that's that! Wednesday, December 31st 2008 at 2:32PM

ROBINSON IRMA UC, Davis class of 1992 I am so sorry that I got so lost a few nights ago when(I believe it was that the History channel) gave the history of Palestine over the past 47 years. I do remember(and am still confused) about the East and West Palinstines on both sides of India!!!! One Palestine is now named BAngladish(probably misspelled)that got military support from India. So where in this do I put the reason that I hear India and Palistine are at odds for, as another lie???? I do know that Israel was not and will not be able to come out of this WAR the same. I believe this way, because the public all over this planet is not backing Israel this time around. Now this is C-H-A-N-G-E in favor of those who are Oppressed? Or just a planet of people sick and tired of being mislead by all of our governments therefore allowing this War Business as usual leading us like pigs to the slaughter using false information about who is the OPRESSOR no longer able to work on the public at large? Wake Up, as it seem that the label "TERRORIST" has died!!!!!Long live the truth and the will to fight for freedom by any means necessary by those who do not control the military might??Right now I am about to change my feelings about being against War in my old age. It feels g r e a t, as Tony the Tiger says.(smile) Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM
