BARBARA'S TCHATZKAHS

By Barak Ravid, Anshel Pfeffer, Jack Khoury and Avi Issacharoff Israel began fighting the diplomatic battle Tuesday to prevent the Goldstone Commission report on Israel's Cast Lead Operation in the Gaza Strip from being brought before the United Nations Security Council and from there to the International Criminal Court in The Hague, where charges could be brought against Israeli officials involved in the military campaign. The report, compiled by a commission headed by former war crimes prosecutor Richard Goldstone, accuses both Israel and the Palestinians of actions amounting to war crimes during the December 27 to January 18 battle in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip. Tuesday night a team lead by Foreign Ministry legal advisor Ehud Keinan, and which included representatives from the Justice Ministry and the military prosecutor's office, delivered a preliminary analysis of the Goldstone Commission report to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Avidgor Lieberman.

This is about time! Since we all heard about RACISM during the election ad naseaum, wonder how long before FauxBama and his bots start screaming about it? And when is MISOGYNY going to be taken as seriously? by Jesse Washington Inside a burning building, fire doesn't discriminate between Matthew Marcarelli and Gary Tinney. Inside the New Haven Fire Department, however, skin color has put them on opposite sides of a lawsuit that could transform hiring procedures nationwide. This week, the Supreme Court will consider the reverse discrimination claim of Marcarelli and a group of white firefighters. They all passed a promotion exam, but the city threw out the test because no blacks would have been promoted, saying the exam had a "disparate impact" on minorities likely to violate the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Besides affecting how race can be considered in filling government and perhaps even private jobs, the dispute also addresses broader questions about racial progress: Do mino...

Wah wah wah!! Us whiny women... all we do is whine that we aren't equal. All in how you frame it, however. You call it whining - I call it telling the truth. Funny how scary we women seem to be when we tell the truth! I am not even going to try to speak to those thick-headed enough to believe this. But most men still do. Most men still think they should be in charge at their church or temple and at work. Look at the Islamofascists who tell women to cover up because they can't control themselves around beauty, yet when some woman gets raped through no fault of her own - she's subject to an honor killing. When I was in Eighth Grade my mother got a call from my school. She got these a lot, not because I was a trouble maker but because many teachers didn't know what to do with me. I was breaking their mold. I'd written an essay on abortion rights and women's rights. The teacher and principal both said it was excellent but "too controversial." My ...

WELL DUH!! SO THE U.N. FAILED ISRAEL! I have always felt there should be a show called "The DUH News." Kind of like The Daily Show with more sarcasm and less blame. Stuff that is so blatantly obvious its amazing the MSM even said something. Like Fox news with a lot more TRUTH. This item would fit right in. FINALLY the U.N. admits its bias. Wonder what their first clue was? That the "balanced fashion" this was supposed to be dealt with was anything but! Hmmmm.... I am going to (don't faint) THANK President Chimpy for saying something. Yes. I will admit he did one thing correct this time. Or was told to do it. Either way - Thank you. Now, are we all holding our collective breath to see if they actually DO something about it? Wait, let me get the oxygen tanks!! Here goes: UN Rights Council 'failed' on Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: Chairman The UN Human Rights Council has failed to handle the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in a balanced fashion, t...
