Zionism is defined by some American Congress members as "a non-discriminatory affirmation of Jewish nationhood". The same persons wrote a letter to the Turkish Prime Minister in which they call him to retract his recent remarks that defined Zionism as a crime against humanity. Zionism is not a crime, it is a noble historical enterprise. Zionists generally preferred to speak Hebrew, a Semitic language that developed under conditions of freedom in ancient Judah, modernizing and adapting it for … [Read more...]

A New Threat to Internet Liberty
This is what I found in my Inbox this morning! I found it important and felt the urge of sharing.

Less than an hour ago, the news started to change dramatically since the first sources told all the same thing, or variations of the same thing.

Now the picture is of the old Benedict, who is 85 by the way, blessing members of the Order of the Knights of Malta at the Vatican, this passed … [Read more...]

It was a pleasure to see the wet shaving being promoted so nice in the last James Bond movie. I'm going to review Skyfall in the future, now I only notice that it was one of the best made in the series. More human touched at least, without humanity in the script. So James Bond, the character, uses a straight razor, a silvertip brush and all the other classic shaving accessories, the mug was visible, so it is to be presumed that a soap was on the bottom of it as well. [source] I was … [Read more...]
