Oath Keepers - "Not on our watch!"

In times when the government removed further and further from the citizen and the Struggle for their own preservation of power determines the daily operations, it becomes increasingly important that citizens see their rulers on the knuckles. In this role, the Oath Keeper seen in the U.S..


The Oath Keeper is an organization that was founded in April 2009 by Stewart Rhodes, a former paratrooper of the U.S. armed forces. Full membership could take any active or retired soldier, fireman or policeman. The motto of the Oath Keeper: "Not on our watch"





The name has nothing to do with oatmeal. The word "Oath" is different by an additional "h" and refers to the oath. An analogous translation for Oath Keeper could be: "The stand by their oath."
The Oath Keeper remember above all that they have made an oath to the Constitution of the United States of America and not to any politician or party. For them, this oath binding and attains a special significance when the institutions of the legislative, executive or judicial power to try to circumvent the Constitution guaranteed rights or even overturn.




The Oath Keeper have been a 10-point program. These 10 points are made of Instructions or commands, which are members of the Oath Keeper If none will follow, because they are unconstitutional in view of the organization: first

We will not obey orders to disarm the American people.

second We will not obey orders to conduct warrantless searches of the American people

third We will not obey orders to detain American citizens as "unlawful enemy combatants" or to subject them to military tribunal.

4th We will not obey orders to impose martial law or a "state of emergency" on a state.

5th We will not obey orders to invade and subjugate any state that asserts its sovereignty.

6th We will NOT obey any order to blockade American cities, thus turning them into giant concentration camps.

7. We will NOT obey any order to force American citizens into any form of detention camps under any pretext.

8. We will NOT obey orders to assist or support the use of any foreign troops on U.S. soil against the American people to “keep the peace” or to “maintain control."

9. We will NOT obey any orders to confiscate the property of the American people, including food and other essential supplies.

10.We will NOT obey any orders which infringe on the right of the people to free speech, to peaceably assemble, and to petition their government for a redress of grievances.

Emphasis get those 10 points, considering that it is only available from the members to U.S. law enforcement officials, soldiers and National Guardsmen involved, who would ultimately charged by their government to impose repressive measures against its own people. These repressive measures could sometimes be have anti-constitutional character, such as during Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in the summer of 2005. Police searched without a legal basis, only at the direction the police chief of New Orleans, homes of private individuals and confiscated firearms. Both are under the U.S. Constitution, however, protected legal interests. In addition, residents of New Orleans against their will in Louisiana Superdom were recorded, which amounted in the opinion of observers of internment.

According to the Oath Keepers so must unconstitutional orders from no one who ever swore an oath to the Constitution are run.

The founder Stewart Rhodes explained the objectives of the Oath Keepers:

Conclusion
The movement of the Oath Keepers in the U.S. is still quite young, but she has a huge supply. It remains to be seen how this trend will continue.
would be desirable for a similar civil rights movement, but also for our country.

What Bulbs Do The Stranne Light Take

Against the one-state solution as dogma

When I on 24 December 2010, the emotionally-charged opinion of Attia and Verena Rajab against my contribution " one-or two-state solution for Palestine? had "on the Web site Palestine portal read," I have a brief written reply , because I feel it below my level, I deal with such indisputable text. This text actually appeared again in the online newspaper "Neue Rheinische Zeitung of 29 December 2010. Rajab The work not only with false statements of fact, but also outrageous political insinuations, by trying to discredit me or a wedge between the serious critics to push this as a dogma, therefore, coming one-state utopia.

I have the statement also criticized as a politically-damaging and unnecessary connection is established between a meaningful campaign (BDS) and a utopian political action took namely the "one-state solution" as a "silver bullet" to solve the Middle East conflict. This utopia is now accepted as the ne plus ultra with teeth and claws, although had gathered in Stuttgart activists must be clear that no single Member State of the United Nations supports this utopia, as all UN resolutions on the establishment of a sovereign State of Palestine target next to Israel.

in this context I would like to point out that there are two "Stuttgart Declaration" is the first dated 6 December , the other of 10 December, and it is now open for signature in cyberspace. The Declaration of 6 December, which was only a few days online, are found very interesting, questionable formulations that have made me suspicious, and throw a stale light on the likely real motives of the organizers.

This is stated in the declaration of 6 December: "Everyone needs to take without delay all that is in his power. We can not wait for Israel collapses on its own. "

white washed Politically, this passage appears in the statement of 10 December as follows: "It is high time (,) to put pressure on Israel. The Zionist system will not recognize Israel on its own the rights of the Palestinians. "

And more is in the Declaration of 6 December: And what should be done to break through structures of injustice and isolation of the oppressed: "We will tear down a further Freedom Flotilla and a flood of actions on land and water, the walls and blockades around Gaza and the West Bank and run."

realistic to in the Declaration of 10th December: "The conference participants are committed to further Freedom flotillas and massive action to stop land and sea blockade and occupation of Gaza and the West Bank."

following closing paragraph in the statement of 6 December missing in the of 10 December: "In particular, we Germans have the duty to take a stand. Germany has not blameless in what has been done to the Palestinians / interior as a consequence of German history. Especially the German past demands of us a very strong sense of responsibility in dealing with human rights and when it comes to expulsions and ethnic cleansing. "

This typical German assertion lacks any historical basis, because in the debate in the UN in connection with the partition resolution did not go to the German crimes of European Jewry. Even Zionist circles were not the crimes of the Holocaust as a "supportive" argument for the formation a Jewish state established in the debate. The goal of the Zionists, was a Jewish state on the basis of the set to "public law", that is, Israel had been established even without the catastrophe of the Holocaust. The only power that the creation of a state for the Jewish people because of the Holocaust and the failure of the West, one not to have such prevented, has called, was the Soviet Union in the person of its UN representative, Andrei Gromyko, the future Soviet foreign minister.

The other impertinent insinuations me and the other critics are women compared with no comment, let alone a rational counter-argument value. I've used at any point of my article, the terms "division and sectarianism." This I had, however, on 24 December rectified. It is also striking is how comfortable throwing the Author with the term "apartheid state of Israel" around. did too, it is necessary to differentiate between the former apartheid in South Africa and an "Israeli Apartheid " as the British journalist Ben White in his book.

The two writers / In trying a set of screen wife of the conference, Felicia Langer to express to my criticism in position because I allegedly twisted her sentence and the last sentence, "the hope remains, "have not cited. to say now that it had decided not totally against the one-state solution, its seems only polite to have been due. How embarrassing it would have been if they had publicly disavowed the organizers and the other speakers? Who would have expected this from Felicia Langer, she does not know really.

already quoted from in my interview 24th December, she has taken a clear position against the Stuttgart Declaration. In this interview, she said, but added: ". I felt insulted because you have called the two-state solution as a dogmatic" If you read her whole speech, then the sentence is "The One-State solution, presented here has beautiful features, but I fear that it is unrealistic, but the hope remains, "is completely unique and can not be taken as support for this utopia to complete. What sense is then the following sentence: ". I still remember that a million French settlers of Algeria have left" Anyone who tries Mrs. Long, to collect revenue for the utopia of one-state solution, is not only against the spirit of her speech, but also deeply dishonest. serve the sentence, "the hope remains," can be used for the one-and two-state solution. "In thousands of speeches I talked about a two-state solution because a different solution has been lying beyond my imagination, "she explained further in the interview. The one-state solution is not realistic, and as "Israeli and German, I can not be for the eradication of Israel, yet I reject the ethnocentric system. Israel must democratize itself and entzionisieren and a state of all its inhabitants. In addition, there should be a democratic Palestinian state free from Israeli occupation. Whether the two countries unite in the future or even go up in an even larger confederation, can only show the future. "

The Author give the impression that the state solution an idea that is supported by a mass movement, but this is not Sun I am reminded of the 1980s than in the dispute said retrofitting parts of the SPD, its party congress decisions had anything to do with reality or could change this. This hubris Hans Apel wrote the following in the root directory: "Finally, the SPD's not the third world power."

And one final note: My assertion that Israel might express itself in a dozen (= 12 people) for a one-state solution, has been previously untertroffen yet. The fact is: of 834 signatories / women are (as of 30.12, 21.22 clock.) only six that have specified as the home country "Israel". Uri Davis, Palestine, Jeff Halper is Palestine / Israel and Ilan Pappe has registered as a United Kingdom home state. For the dozen or so are still missing six "bred" Israelis who profess allegiance to their home country Israel.

The international solidarity movement should not divide and weaken reason, but to coordinate their actions so and use that it can generate the most value for the liberation of the Palestinian people from Israeli occupation. It is also aimed primarily the BDS campaign. The second thrust must be on the transformation of Israel from a "ethnocracy" aiming towards a democracy in the Western sense. The fact that the Zionist ideology, the focus has to apply, no need for expert discussion. The main obstacle to resolving the Middle East conflict is the Zionist ideology of substances without a "de-Zionization" Israel, as it has been called Michel Warschawski is the country no country can be of all its inhabitants. Only when this goal will be reached, and the Middle East conflict to be resolved. For wise and far-sighted Israelis, it is clear that Israel will have no future as a "Jewish and democratic" state. The Zionist Israeli political elite must be between "Jewish" or choose "democratic". People are demanding that Fatah and Hamas in the occupied territories that should pass the sole responsibility of the Israeli occupying forces to then hope they could produce a Palestinian majority, the requirement of "one man, one vote" to enforce given to political illusions about the resistance to the Zionist ideology out. In order to effect political change in Israel, it requires a majority of Israeli citizens and massive pressure from the international community.

When referred to already in full swing ongoing slander campaign by the "Israel lobby" in connection with the Israeli government so Israel critics is the concentration of pro-Palestinian forces announced and not the controversy over a political utopia. If the solidarity movement split on that would be political suicide.

This "Gaza Massacre"

began two years ago, the assault of the Israeli army on the defenseless population of the Gaza Strip. This brutal attack lasted 27 December 2008 to 18th January 2009. Two days later, the new U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama was in his office as the 44th President of the United States introduced. The time of the massacre, he played golf in Hawaii; criticism for its part did not exist. Also still in office, U.S. President George W. Bush silent, no one's surprised.

This "Gaza Massacre" as it has the well-known American political scientist Norman G. called Finkelstein is mistakenly called "Gaza-war," which is misleading the public because there were no armed Palestinians, the would lead to a war. Also, the pretext for this attack has nothing to do with the facts. There was a truce between the ruling Hamas in the Gaza Strip and Israel, the Hamas has held, until Israel had killed six members of this organization in November 2008. In the time of the armistice (July to October) was the bombardment Israel by 97 percent. Only with the breakdown of the ceasefire by Israel, Hamas took the attack Israeli territory by Qassam rockets again, which were causing only minor damage and did not compare with the U.S. high-tech weapons are of Israel.

The massacre in the Gaza Strip, according to press release came the "Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) 27 Dezember 2010 1 419 people died, 83 percent of those killed were civilians who are under the protection of international humanitarian law. 5 300 people were wounded and the civilian infrastructure was destroyed a large area. Numerous reports from human rights organizations such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have documented the crimes of the Israeli military. On behalf of the UN Human Rights Council committee set up under the renowned South African judge Richard Goldstone, presented a report, called "Goldstone Report", above, has been certified in the Israel of "crimes against humanity" and "war crimes" are. The same allegations also went to the Hamas government. It should however be noted that nine tenths of the allegations were directed against Israel, what was the nature of things. To date, none of these reports had led to any consequences from the international community. Through their Silence has endorsed the international community implicitly the massacre of the defenseless and incarcerated population of the Gaza Strip. Through this silence to international crimes, which commit the U.S. occupation forces in Iraq and Afghanistan along with their consent accomplices, are thereby indirectly sanctioned.

The raid, which operates under the code name "Cast Lead, aimed at the destruction of civilian infrastructure, documents which sufficiently by the massive destruction of schools, sanitation facilities, mosques, universities, police stations, UN and agricultural establishments and private residences has been. Israel set an even more phosphorus shells, which are banned under international law and lead to devastating burns.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry itself, in a documentary entitled "The Hamas terror war against Israel" shows how loyal the contract has Hamas behavior. It presented two graphs that the "Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center at the Israel Intelligence Heritage & Commemoration Center has created. The graphs show that Hamas had begun again with the bombardment of Israeli territory after Israel had liquidated the Hamas members.









Monthly distribution of rockets hit.










Monthly distribution of mortar shells.

These graphs were fourth on the night January 2009 from the website of the State Department removed when the Israeli army launched its ground offensive. They were replaced by the following graph, which could be described as obscure.










This document bore the same title as the original: "The Hamas terror war against Israel." All Details were documented by Jim Holstun and Joanna Tinker minutely.

It speaks volumes that Abbas and Fayyad "government" of the second anniversary of the Gaza massacre has not thought of. It rumors have persisted that this attack Israel with knowledge, if by not even secretly want approval of this "government". First WikiLeaks publications show that Abbas and the Egyptian government over the Gaza Strip had been offered, but this was denied by Abbas. This would not be surprising if one considers the circumstances of the failed putsch of warlord Mahmoud Dahlan against Hamas in the Gaza is a reminder, but who has yielded a different result, as had hoped to Dahlan and his principal. Mistakenly the planned destruction of the Hamas haunts Dahlan and his backers as "Hamas coup" by the international press. But the fact is that Hamas is the coup of an unholy alliance, consisting of the United States, Israel and the so-called Palestinian government had anticipated, and Dahlan, who had conducted the attack from Egypt on mobile phones, not to his happiness on the scene is . A letter Dahlan of 13 July 2003 to the then Israeli Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz, who has been found in Dahlan's headquarters, shows whose line is run to Dahlan.

In the Federal Republic of Germany, none of the Palestinian officials thought the civil society of the massacre in Gaza for two years. But it fits the well-clad representatives of the Palestinian people, little solidarity with the portion of their people to demonstrate, who lives immediately under the rule of Hamas. After all, the Palestinian General Delegation in Berlin in a meager opinion on this "crime against humanity" causes seen.

The solidarity movement with the Palestinian people must use all its efforts on the occupation of Palestinian territories in and exit to convince the international community that the recognition of a Palestinian state for over 60 years overdue. A beginning made some Latin American countries, the European Union should follow closed. If the EU has taken this step, all other states will follow suit until the refusal front: the United States of America, Israel and perhaps Palau and Micronesia. This much needed recognition of the international community would not only meet their legal obligations, but also guarantee respect for international law.

Baby Shoe Size Conversion China

fatwas in pinstripes and designer dresses

ago, when over 20 years, Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwa against the Indian-British writer Salman Rushdie issued, in which he had called for his death because he, in his novel "The Satanic Verses" allegedly the Koran, Islam and the Prophet Mohammad is said to have offended it was entitled to a worldwide outcry.

Times have changed. This method, publicly calling for the elimination of dissent, has now moving into the thinking of the "enlightened" West held. As so often in the past 60 years, including this comes from the United States of America. However, this time the "call for murder" against Julian Assange, the Founder of the Web site WikiLeaks. The only "crime" that Assange committed there, in the publication of numerous documents that show how undemocratic, criminal and inhuman, not only the U.S. war policy in Iraq and Afghanistan, but also as a double standard works, the U.S. diplomacy and the dismissive, even contemptuous opinion, the representatives of the U.S. empire over nearly all government officials have in the world. The U.S. Department of State told even his diplomats to spy on the representatives of the Member States of the UN, including UN Secretary-General and the permanent members of the U.S. Security Council. From the gossip and Gossip in the U.S. dispatches to say nothing. The publication of the video to see on the live the arbitrary execution of innocents in Iraq by an Apache attack helicopter was seems only a small part of the brutal occupation in Iraq reflect reality.

Since then goes before the U.S. empire with all their might against the "whistleblower benign" Assange. An attempt to construct laws or bend so that you can make it in the U.S. trial for espionage. But that's not enough. Known political figures of the U.S. establishment as the potential Republican presidential candidate in 2012, Mike Huckabee, said: "Whoever in our government leaked that information is guilty of treason, and I think anything less than execution is too kind a penalty. "And another potential candidate for the upcoming U.S. presidential election campaign and former candidate for the post of U.S. Vice President in the 2008 election campaign, Sarah Palin, called for Assange "to bring to the track" (hunted down) And on Facebook, she explained. "" He is an anti-American operative with blood on his hands. His past posting of classified documents revealed the identity of more than 100 sources to the Afghan Taleban. Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue Al-Qaeda and Taliban leaders? "In contrast, the U.S. Department of Defense confirmed that no human life been brought by the publications of WikiLeaks is in danger. It is hardly to imagine if one of these two should be the next US-Präsident/in. The political irrationality rail door open.

The call for the destruction of Assange seems to be an exclusively American phenomenon, but a North American. So cried a close advisor to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Tom Flanagan, the Canadian TV station CBC related to the murder of Assange to: "I think Assange should be assassinated, actually I think Obama should put out a contract and maybe use a drone or something. . I would not feel unhappy if Assange does disappear. "

an outcry of indignation about these calls for murder could be heard in the Western democratic media public anywhere. Is it because the new fatwas thus can no longer wearing a turban, but in pinstripes and designer dresses? In any well-functioning rule of law would be the or one that calls related to the murder of another man accused of. But the U.S. empire has left at least since 9 / 11, the constitutional path. Many critics in the United States certify that their own country to move towards seven-league boots on a "police state". He seems to be in place long ago, when the megalomaniac effort to control and monitor U.S. citizens and the expansion of the security apparatus considered. The spicy part is that this is among the first non-white president Barack Hussein Obama and former "Law-Prof eaters further happens, the" can change, yes we "through his dazzling rhetoric and the slogan, a radical departure from the devastating eight-year George W. Bush 's presidency was announced. What remains is just hot air, and all things have become worse.

The Dorothy Coleburn School Of Dance

Confirmation of political irrationality

I usually do not react to this type of personal, aggressive and emotional notes that in general, more than the limited communication abilities , the author / in what, than they would like to be. I take back a single word of my objective assessment of this document , but as the many false assertions and allegations back in her article.

place So in my post not under my terms' division and sectarianism. " In my contribution, there are no "deliberately false statements." This distorted perception makes it fast to the non-quoted phrase of mine from Mrs. Langer, who has in relation to the "one-state solution" also said "the hope remains. This phrase has no political significance when, in her speech in full reads. One of her books with the title: "fight for hope." In fact, we should not deprive the Palestinian people the hope of a democratic state in their freedom from foreign occupation. That the State of Israel is one of those neighbors should the authors of the "Stuttgart Declaration" but also be clear. In this kind of "debate" I will not engage me anymore.

Good For Enlarged Spleen

one-or two-state solution for Palestine? Buon compleanno

From 26 to 28 November 2010 was held in Stuttgart, a Palestinian solidarity conference, entitled "Separate past - Common Future", Stuttgart, which resulted in a so-called Declaration has been published, which advocated for a state solution as a "silver bullet" to solve the Middle East conflict on behalf of the speakers and the majority of participants. The characteristic style of explanation is in parts aggressive and polemical. It is not offered a substantive alternative, but the proponents of a two-state solution can be discredited so that they would supposedly hold "dogmatic" in such and the "realities" ignored. Furthermore, would deepen a two-state solution to the "inequality" and cement. Completely dishonest is the implicit connection between state solution and the BDS (boycott, divestment and sanctions). A winning international support to movement which aims to end the occupation of the Palestinian homeland by Israel, is a non-political, because unrealistic goals as the one-state solution.

The debate about a one-state solution is almost as old as the conflict itself. Not only the signatories of the "Stuttgart Declaration" have discovered this, but already Martin Buber, Gershom Scholem and many others, they are in the thirties and forties of the 20th Century for the most advanced of all solutions used. Matzpen in Israel, the Communist Party of Israel, even the Communist Federation in the Federal Republic of Germany have called for a multi-national state in Palestine. The story is unfortunately passed over it. Could the Jewish representative of a single state has not prevail against the idea of the then representative of Zionism on the international stage, the less the current representative of this idea to be heard. The establishment of a Jewish state was the latest since the promulgation of the "Balfour Declaration" defined target not only of the British Empire, but at least since the presidency of Woodrow Wilson and the goal of U.S. foreign policy, by the Zionist representatives not to speak. Anyone familiar with the debate at the United Nations, should know that the Zionist representatives at that time pursued a single objective, namely the establishment of a Jewish state on the basis of "public law". The Holocaust has played no role in this debate. The only power which had established that argument for the establishment of the state in the debate was the then representative of the Soviet Union in the UN Security Council, Andrei Gromyko. His argument for the right of the Jewish people to statehood based on the catastrophe of the Holocaust, as John Strawson from the University of East London "in its investigation" partitioning Palestine "convincing has documented.

Since all political actions of the Palestinian resistance and the negotiation of a two-state solution have been fruitless, it seems the authors of the "Stuttgart Declaration" to be concluded to try it once with actions to achieve one-state solution. The politically fatal, however, that this proposal with the currently running BDS campaign combine to be focused on another goal to achieve and, through international pressure to end the occupation of Palestinian land. Thus, the BDS campaign inflicted serious damage because it is the Palestinian and international campaign with a utopian political Call overloaded, so something is counterproductive. Thus divisive tendencies first the Dortmund area planner Viktoria Waltz has noted in an email that has created quite a stir within the community. And Thomas Immanuel Steinberg emphasized this negative aspect.

The demand for one-state solution in Israel has perhaps a dozen supporters who have no political influence. The entire political elite of the country is against it. Also among the Palestinian political elite there seems to be frustrated, who had hoped the so-called peace process, a "Singapore". Now you want from the wreckage of their political ability of the Israeli occupation throw the feet and settle back comfortably in the American-European-funded occupation. A one-state solution would mean for them the acceptance of second-class citizens for ever. Even the Israeli peace activist Uri Avnery, who is regarded by the right-wing nationalist and extreme right-wing circles as "extreme left" keeps this concept at all. "The empty talk of a few professors who have simply had enough of Israel's resolve and do it." Also for Noam Chomsky, Norman Finkelstein and Felicia Langer political and international legal reasons against the concept of a one-state solution.

It is strange that the "umbrella woman" Stuttgarter this event was not notified in advance of that explanation. In your speech at this conference, they explained that they say that the two-state solution is no longer in question come, because this border to the Palestinians only in a Bantustan could do what was unacceptable to them. She reminded the audience the fact that the French colonial power was transferred to their defeat in Algeria a million French settlers from the country. The one-state solution has "beautiful qualities", but they fear that it is "unrealistic" is. In an interview with me Felicia Langer: "The final document - the so-called Stuttgart Declaration - splits, rather than concentrate on the most important task, namely the struggle against occupation and the current barbaric Israeli policies toward Palestinians. The Palestinian people must decide alone on the solution, and we should support his campaign. An offensive terminology of the 'dogmatic adherence to the so-called international community in the two-state solution', etc. is out of place. This declaration is split our ranks, whose unity we so desperately need ', it is an own goal, so I am against "

International Solidarity Movement. should focus on: it must be their primary to the end of Israeli occupation policies and go to establish a Palestinian state in accordance with international law. The right to a homeland and self determination for every nation to stand by international law. The two-state solution was already predetermined by the UN partition resolution. The representatives of the Palestinian people have to manage to make in 1988 in Algiers, PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat as not only proclaimed the State of Palestine, but also recognized the state of Israel within the borders of 1967. The fact that the PLO was originally used once for a secular state in Palestine, is history. The entire international community supports the thesis of two states in the territory of historic Palestine. You should therefore do all that this objective is achieved quickly, or else no more territory is available, can build on the Palestinians their state. It must be the aim of founding this state on the basis of international law, this means that all since the occupation in 1967 unilaterally made policies of the occupying power should be reversed because it violates the international law. Main target countries of the solidarity movement must therefore be the U.S. and the major countries of the European Union, as they the most loyal Allies of Israel and support its international law and violate human rights policy without reservation. But the other UN member states are important, as demonstrated by the recent diplomatic recognition of a Palestinian state by Brazil, Argentina and Bolivia. The UN as an institution is still a duty to implement the second part of the partition resolution, politically, and that is the foundation of the State of Palestine to pursue priority.

The solidarity movement must also have a second thrust, namely, the domestic policy of the State of Israel. Israel defines itself as "Jewish and democratic", what wise and far-sighted Israelis consider an oxymoron, a contradiction in terms, and a wrong way. Israel is largely a vibrant democracy, but in the classic sense of the word only for its Jewish citizens. All non-Jewish citizens of the country are second class citizens. There are numerous laws and regulations, which establish that the discriminatory status. The goal of the Solidarity movement must be to make this public, so that transformed Israel from a "ethnocracy" to democracy in the Western sense for all its residents. It is the duty of the supporters of Israel to abandon its double standards and convince the leadership of the country, to a to transform democracy in the classical Western understanding. Such a state of all its citizens in addition to a sovereign Palestinian state worthy of the name is in the interests of all concerned. A major obstacle on the road to full democracy seems to be the ideology of Zionism. It should therefore are also the focus of the Solidarity movement. How explosive is a Zionist-critical attitude which may extend to personal destruction, the example of Ilan Pappe, who, in order to be able to teach again free to go into exile in the UK had.

The Solidarity movement should remain aware that, whatever the Palestinian people after the end of Besetzung für sich in freier Selbstbestimmung entscheiden wird, ist zu akzeptieren. Primäres Ziel muss sein das Ende der Besetzung, alles andere wird sich dann ergeben.

Janitrol Thermostat User Manual

, Felicia Langer!

This week, the lawyer for Human Rights, the German-Israeli Felicia Langer, completed his 80 years on, in the town of Tuebingen. Last year, Felicia Langer and her husband Mieciu could celebrate their 60 years of marriage. Langer was born in Poland. When Nazi Germany attacked Poland in September 1939, she and her family fled the Soviet Union, where they remained until the end of World War II. The family of which would become her husband, however, was not so "lucky." All except Mieciu, were exterminated by Nazi torturers, and he managed to survive a series of concentration camps.

Following their marriage, in 1950 the couple immigrated to Israel. After the birth of his son Michael, Felicia Langer enrolled in law at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In 1965 he began working as a lawyer. Following the occupation of Palestinian territories in the 1967 war, for more than a decade Felicia Langer was the only office to assume the defense of Palestinians in Israeli military courts ("kangaroo courts"). However, its interpretation the laws of Israel and the international evil adapts the concept of law were established as "kangaroo courts". Langer will suffer not only the arrogance of the military judges, but also had to endure vilification by his countrymen.

However, a great success Langer managed to achieve: in front of the Israeli High Court Justice, was able to prevent the deportation of Bassam Shaka, the mayor of Nablus. In 1990, Felicia Langer quit his law firm and moved, with his family in Germany. They settled in the town of Tuebingen, Baden Wuerttemberg. Since then, Felicia Langer continues to fight for the rights of the Palestinian population, but also for a better Germany.

His commitment was both verbal and through its publications. To inform the German public, Felicia Langer wrote eleven books highlighting the oppression of the Palestinians in their homeland by the Israeli occupation. It 'been criticized for his blunt language and treated with extreme hostility by a pro-Israel lobby group, the right guidance, which gives the impression of caring more for the fate of the State of Israel and not those of the Jews in Germany.

When the former President of Germany, Horst Koehler, gave it the Cross of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, these pressure groups were disappointed. Some of them, which had previously been awarded the same honor, tried to blackmail the President Koehler to withdraw the Cross of Merit to Langer threatening that otherwise would have delivered his own. Felicia Langer was able to overcome these defamatory maintaining their dignity and completely ignoring the harassment.

A prophet usually is not recognized in their country. While enjoying the high esteem of non-Zionist Israelis, Felicia Langer has become almost an "idol" for Palestinians. When we participated together at a conference in East Jerusalem, whole families of Palestinians came forward to thank you again for what he has done for them. After his transfer from Israel, Felicia Langer was awarded several prestigious awards, among others, the Alternative Nobel Prize for Peace. The Germans should be happy that you have decided to move to their country by accepting German citizenship, which historically could not be taken for granted. Personally I count myself among the lucky ones who could use some good advice for many years, Felicia Langer and try to walk in his footsteps on the path to truth and justice. I wish you a happy birthday, or, as they say in Polish, I'm lat, lat I am!

The farce of the "peace process" in the Middle East

in the Middle East is the X-ten-times the "peace process" broken, and the American-dominated media, public is once again excited. Arguments and political niceties are exchanged and rhetorically as "serious" tossed to and fro as if it were a question of peaceful co-existence of the Israeli and Palestinian people as equals. So it was not in 1993, when the "peace process" has been celebrated for the first time on the international stage. Already at that time was the subjugation of the colonized people announced. Yasser Arafat, the "terrorist" and "freedom fighters", was of Yitzhak Rabin and U.S. President Bill Clinton on the international scene established itself as a socially acceptable actor so that he secure the safety of the settlers in the occupied territories and the residents in Israel proper with should help. This role he had played well for several years until he realized that the "peace process" no state "Palestine" was the goal, but a Bantustan. For the "President of Palestine, Mahmoud Abbas and his cronies, the story was supposed to be a lesson. But it seems that the Palestinians out of history with Zionism learned nothing.

for his "service" received Arafat the insignia of a "president" of Palestine: some pieces of land in his home country for self-government, a "government" with "ministers" and countless "Directors" - all have royally with fleet, mobile phones and lush salaries that the West has as a wedding gift for the continued occupation provided, -. a flag, a presidential limousine with flag holder, a pipe band, which was allowed to intone on "state visits", "al-Biladi" (My Country), a stamp with his Likeness of any airport in the Gaza Strip, from which he could but stand only for his circumnavigation with the permission of the Israeli occupation authorities, "passports" that is not to leave the occupied territories authorized, and the passing on any requests to the "Palestinian Authority" to approval by the Israelis. Ironically, began the most aggressive phase of the colonization of Palestine until the outbreak of the "peace process". That has not changed anything, the opposite: It's all a lot worse, so simply disastrous and deeply human indignities for the occupation and become colonized. in

before the midterm elections the U.S. seems to Barack Hussein Obama the world a new round of this farce. Whether one is listening to the slap of the voter in early November of Obama something about it may be doubted. The Nobel committee has given him but already awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after a few weeks in office. Why should he even try? Which performance was the first non-white U.S. president awarded to ask not only the Obama supporters? A president who continue to operate next to two colonial wars of his predecessor, and this extends even to dungeons in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo show trials of questionable conduct, "court" can be, with the highest moral distinction honored, which is to forgive! The Nobel Committee has topped even George Orwell. It seems that Obama kick the bull by the horns to his first and perhaps last term of office and to rescue his reputation, what can be saved. The Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, along with Joe Biden, the U.S. Vice-President, pointed into the crowd refueling. The Abbas-Palestinians would be wise not to put on Obama. This endless conflict has seen come and go for many U.S. presidents and, and the "Israel Lobby" (Mearsheimer / Walt) is still the same. The Western States

world has a big advantage over all authoritarian dictatorial and totalitarian regimes: their liberal-democratic societies, including their values. Especially the latter but are looking in the "peace process" trampled on because they marginalize those who have the only democratic legitimacy in Palestine: Hamas, as it may sound preposterous. In 2006, the movement or party of more than 60 percent of the Palestinian people in free, democratic, equal and secret elections, as their parliamentary representatives. For the first time voted in the Arab world, a corrupt political elite in free elections from power. Instead of welcoming this, the West took over uncritically the political position of the Israeli government and condemned the new government, although the Western criticism of the old Abbas government was more than justified. Sun criticized the West, the Palestinian leadership, "President" Abbas because of its widespread corruption, poor governance and their their anti-democratic attitude. Despite these legitimate criticisms of the Abbas government, ignored the west to the free will of the Palestinian people, and it was not chosen as it had been presented to the West. perhaps the wrong people were called to the polls? What the West can do more than by his own attitude to "Western values" so absurd to lead? Even in the "nuclear" Iran armed with the double standards of the West come into play. Iran has signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, to all rules of the Atomic Energy Commission in Vienna, subject, subordinate to the West won over because of racial prejudice, Muslims, "Iran's leaders do not play with open cards. Israel is the fourth-strongest military power in the world and is unconditionally from the only "hyper power", the U.S. supported. Israel has more than 200 nuclear warheads, Iran has zero! So what is all this talk of the threat to Israel?

President Obama's "glory" has faded in every respect. In rhetorical brilliance teleprompter, he turned to the Muslim world and presented to the Israeli prime minister publicly. Both times he leaped like a lion and ended as a rug. His authority in the U.S. is completely there, not only because of the hate campaigns of right-wing neocons, the middle-class tea party or movement of Armageddon-centered Christian fundamentalists. Even his colleagues in the West do in his "glory" not sunbathe. This is especially true for the Middle East, are the exceptions, "President" Abbas and the President of the United States entirely dependent on Jordan and Egypt, the dependence of the Saudi Arabian Autocracy is another matter. These "counterparts" are recommended at the meeting of the Arab League in early October Abbas, the "peace talks" do not cancel, but postpone for opportunistic reasons, although there is no basis for everything. Netanyahu something other than political and tactical games Related to expect on settlement freeze, would be as if he would be classified as a "statesman." Also 1947/48 Palestinian politicians made pilgrimages to the "Arab Higher Committee to Cairo and other Arab capitals in order to get advice from a desolate Arab leadership, not to the Palestinian cause, but only interested in was how they counteract the influence of other Arab rivals could. One as a "liberation movement" to the Palestinian people started PLO, is - thanks to the West and its Arab allies - has degenerated into a caricature of itself. Maybe even have forgotten the Palestinians Abbas, why the PLO was founded in fact. The western dilemma is exacerbated by the illegitimacy of Abbas and his "government" of Prime Minister Fayyad Salman. Both lack any democratic legitimacy. But the West did not always better with despots just because they imagined as a guarantor of political stability in his favor have been considered?

The West had once again brought international following facts: The Six-Day War of 1967 occupied territories - West Bank, Gaza Strip, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights - are illegally occupied. A transfer of the population of the occupier contravenes Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, as well as the construction of settler colonies. All actions of the occupier, not the welfare of the occupied population is considered as null and void, such as the tapping of groundwater, the theft of Palestinian land, destruction of homes in the occupied territories, the torture of its inhabitants, the total closure of the areas, the arbitrary Restriction, the construction of an eight-foot wall or a "security fence" in occupied territory as far as possible, as has the International Court of 2004 in The Hague stated in a report. Through these international illegal wall remaining 90 percent of Palestine by Israel are incorporated. All of these actions violated international law by the Israeli occupying forces seem the West with his "Western values" are interested enough. Incidentally, the Geneva Conventions is binding on all states. According to Article 1, require all parties, "comply with the Agreement under all circumstances and to ensure respect." Where, in the Israeli case, the "Western values" is to that every internationally wrongful action or any violation of human rights that are in line? If this were the case, remains on the credibility of "the West" left little.

the prevailing political circumstances, these peace-making political farce for some time on the international stage will be performed. Should sign the Abbas-Palestinian "peace treaty" with Israel, this is due to lack of legitimacy of the signatories to the lack of Palestinian unity and not a day to endure. Who Abbas speaks at all, except for himself and his cronies? Whether the West but the maintenance of such survive in the long term agreement is without prejudice, must be questioned because of past experiences. His neo-colonial wars in Iraq and Afghanistan do not speak just for rational political action. Whether the solution is out of this dilemma of credibility to attract other theaters of war in Iran, Somalia or Yemen, it seems more like a sleight of same. The West is not as once fought Don Quixote tilting at windmills, but against a Hydra. The more "Taliban" or "terrorists" killed, the more rise against the U.S. and Israeli occupiers. To get at this Hydra, the large US-led NATO troops to war on Pakistan like past in the Vietnam war against Cambodia. This makes political deja vu is a certain irony. Did the U.S. geo-strategists ever thought that some peoples of Central Asia and the Middle East with the reorganization of ideas the U.S. and its accomplices do not agree? Occupation and resistance are two sides of same coin.

Red Flaky Patches On Dog

Sniping 4th Generation

The one-day course with the precision rifle somewhat nondescript initials' S4G "is conducted by the Swiss Shooting School NDS. The instructors show the process can put the potential in a .223 Remington.


"The .223 Remington is too weak and vulnerable to side winds, beyond the 200 meters too vague and target ballistic almost over the entire distance without effect. Moreover, it is completely impossible to generate a military self-loading rifle of this caliber to 500 meters reproducible results on a man wheel. "Such and similar statements are occasionally heard when the discussion on the caliber .223 Remington or his military pedant 5.56 x45 to speak comes.

The course "Sniping 4th Generation breaks with many prejudices about the .223 and even experienced shooters are surprised regularly to what is the .223 in a position to apply as long as the tax man behind the rifle, the basic skills of shooting and correct the trajectory of his load that knows. The instructors at NDS (neurons Defense Systems) are exclusively active or former members of the Swiss army, who pass on their knowledge and skills to federal police officers or other private gun owners. All shooting and self defense courses at NDS are practical and provide a universal system of weapons handling. In the precision rifle course S4G participants to one or other military component of the rifle scope rifle shooting is brought near. This is methodologically inevitable first and second terms of the target group of NDS is not surprising.





The Designated Marksman
The current armed conflict created a reduction in combat distances with it. often must be fought in urban terrain. Analyses of the U.S. armed forces shows that the average distance is statistically proven in military use of hand weapons in 100m. Often only 20 to 30m. What is already in the Vietnam War era and the beginning of the 21st Century to pull back a trend seen only in current conflicts and current events to draw conclusions about the military shooting training. As a result, shots were formed over long distances only rudimentary. The U.S. armed forces began some time ago the "infantry half-kilometer" reclaim and reintegrate him into the shooting training. happened According to the materialist approach in the first place due to technical upgrade of the existing hand weapons. The concept is called the Americans and the Designated Marksman Rifle Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR). The Designated Marksman is incorporated as opposed to a pure sniper in his group or company and supports them both by precise shots at more distant targets as well as "normal" infantry fire. The Swiss, however, had abandoned the concept of an integrated group in the sniper before. Quite the contrary; It was in the past decades consistently expanded and improved. In addition, the Swiss realized anything at any time more on natural shooting skills of a soldier, as the focus lay solely on the purchase of more and more an expensive material. The result is summarized in the one-day course S4G.





philosophy of S4G
Participants will be equipped for the course with a Rifle hire and optics, and also get the required amount of ammunition to complete the course. The philosophy is characterized by the principle of minimalism. To attend any weapons with match barrels are required just as self-loaded precision munitions and expensive high-performance optics. Rather, it is paired to a minimum proficiency of the shooter with a reasonable shooting technique as the main component used and the fact that the performance of normal self-loading rifles or assault is often underestimated. The concept of the course is supported by four pillars:
An assault rifle 90 in caliber 5.56 x 45 equipped with a 4x magnifying scope, foreign ballistic method of continuous sight range (. And battlefield target or English called Battlefield Zero), which is a second breakpoint supplemented. The same applies to the compensation of cross wind.
In addition, the participant, the routine of rapid single fire is instilled, should the first-shot hits have no effect on the target.
Furthermore, it is assumed that a well-trained shooter can achieve from the prone position out an average spread of 1 ° / ° ° (one per thousand), reproducibly.





average scattering
The average dispersion of the overall package People & weapon can be determined in a standard procedure.
From a distance of 25m is 5 shots from the shooter vertical, 5 shots kneeling, lying 5 shots and then starts over again until he missed a total of 100 rounds added. As the target medium, the silhouette is 100m on the Swiss NGST disc. Every shot should be given specifically. Trained marksmen can keep this a rhythm of one shot per second.
shows Normally, after the shooting exercise frames a palm-sized hole in the windshield of a few outliers. With average shooters less than 25% of the shots are out of the hit zone. This target practice should be understood primarily as a didactic means to underpin that the average spread is sufficient in all three shooting positions, to place 75 to 80% risk of a first shot hit on a 100m distant goal.
Will you identify his personal average scattering for each shooting position, a little more effort. For the prone position would be 25m to the finish also fell short. There should be at least 100m or 50m. Well-trained shooters who are able to implement basic skills of shooting, use reference points between man and weapon as well as the natural destination to reach, in the prone position an average spread of 0.5 ° / ° ° or 1 °/°°. 1 ° / ° ° is the shooter in a position to take on 600m distance a square 60cm by 60cm times safely.
further objective of this exercise is to show that it is not always "The 10" has to make and can not be seen statistically. The shooter is the average scattering a helper to achieve in a military environment an extremely high success rate. Another resource for this is the fastest single fire.





fast single shots
The Swiss army is its soldiers from the first day of shooting basic training from the fact the goal to shoot with a fast single shot if the first shot has shown no effect on the target. This gives the soldier from five targeted shot with a rhythm of about two shots per second. This method has a distinct boundary with the U.S. "Spray & Pray" - the quick fire in the general direction of the target. During fast single shots to make the shooter again a clean shooting technique and learned the natural target point advantage. The most important requirement is of course a proper trigger control. By tearing off the trigger, the average spread would extend to a multiple and contrary to the concept of S4G. The course was found that the Feuerart of rapid single fire over the entire distance range from zero to 600m success is promising to apply.





-length visor area
The Einschießmethode of the passing sight range (DWJ 03/2010) means to inject a gun so that the shooter can use on the widest distance only a sighting adjustment and a break point and the projectile during the entire flight path course not higher increases than half the target amount. The "half target amount" is the determinant. It is assumed the target was about 40cm high. In a modern assault rifle in caliber .223 Remington can thus realize a continuous sight range from zero to 300. That's enough for an application in the concept of S4G is not enough. Remedy the choice of a second breakpoint.
In the course of the shot guns at 25m mark. In a line of sight of approximately 85mm, the floor a very steep angle of departure, resulting in the average distance between 200 and 300 to a huge peak of up to 30cm. The shooter takes in this area (to about 400m) a second stop to help. He can sit up the torso of the opponent. The rule of thumb is: Can you tell by the ZF details on the uniform, the distance from the "moderate" is. Can we not recognize these details, the goal is "far" away. The soldier selects a break point at which the target is almost completely obscured.
The simple method of continuous targeted area is only a component extended. Laborious and time-consuming removal of unnecessary resources. Similarly, the shooter is not compelled, during the firefight to turn screws on its scope.





StG90 and 4x optical
NDS The organizer will provide each candidate an assault rifle 90 which is connected to the weapon type of the SIG 550 series are almost identical. All weapons are equipped with a 4x magnifying scope of military production and of older design. The optics have spiked as a target reticle. In terms of the options that the market has in these days in terms of precision rifles, this composition seems their time to lag behind. Nevertheless satisfy both weapon and look to the requirements of the course and hit allow up to a distance of 600m.





course schedule
The one-day course begins with the sighting of weapons. The participants shall use for a 25-m short-range weapons. The sighting is carried out from a lying position. A backpack is the only support for the stabilization of the weapon. The aim is to sight-in on 25m with a bullet hole group that can be covered by a 2-euro coin. The team weapon, ammunition and man could achieve a much better precision. The contradicts the principle of minimalism, the NDS has prescribed. The instructor eighth, however, very closely on a correct trigger manipulation by the participants. To learn to master the relatively long trigger travel a SIG assault rifle, is taught to consciously trigger to the rear fence to push and slide in a controlled movement forward. Over the entire path of the trigger finger keeps constant contact with the trigger. When
Einschießprozess procedure is such as if the catch-all or Verstellmaße scopes are unknown. The shooter is methodologically useful, but he gets such a methodology taught adjustment is need every unfamiliar scope with a minimum of effort to.
In the course of the morning worked out all aspects of the shooting concept S4G in dialogic principle. For example, consider how long it takes for a shooter to identify with his means the distance to an object. In contrast, the S4G concept of "near" and "far" distance during live fire is used. The same applies for a finding of the crosswind by conventional means. The S4G concept is also working again with only two stops. Depending on wind strength and distance to destination.
embarrassed After lunch the participants directly to the 600-meter track. launched from the prone shooting position, all aspects of S4G concept be put into practice. To the surprise of many a participant, the folding plates are made at the end of the 600m track around actually. Despite the increasingly inefficient as a .223 caliber Remington titled.





Conclusion
When aiming at as a gunner, a broad knowledge base, the precision rifle course S4G an important stone in the overall puzzle of personal training. The course is methodically built up very well and leads to a sustained improvement in shooting technique. to the individual experience, have set up a .223-Remington auto-loaders successfully over a distance of up to 600 meters, is useful for self-confidence of each shooter.
All significant findings of the course are summarized in the 50-page book "Le 4ème génération de sniping" Philippe Perotti. The book is available only in French.
