Richard Silverstein Loses it at the J Street Conference

by bluetrurh Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2009 at 10:58 AM

Fear and Loathing at J Street Conference-- Scanning The Blog Reports



Our friend Solomonia broke this story today: Richard Silverstein tosses someone out from the bloggers' conference that Silverstein organized at the J Street confab in DC. That particular event was not "officially" part of the J Street meeting-- except that it was in a room provided by J Street, with staff (including bouncers) provided by J Street. And the reason this person, who was sitting quietly and taping the proceedings, was tossed? Because he happens to hold opinions that Richard Silverstein disagrees with-- pro-Israel opinions. Richard is just fine with inviting outspoken opponents of Zionism to his little coffee talk, but the presence of someone who he considers to be on his enemies list gets him all verklempt. (I'm sure there were others in the room who Silverstein didn't recognize, and I look forward to hearing their reports.)


More eyewitness reports are trickling out of the conference: Elie Wiesel being publicly mocked , while Rabbi Eric Yoffie being heckled for daring to suggest that the Palestinians had some minimal responsibility for the current situation because they had voted for the genocidal Hamas. And J Street already appears to be trying to distance itself from the "pro-Israel" label.


I'm looking forward to more reports, especially after the conference is over and some of the other observers can write openly about it. (Richard, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that they're not watching you).

sitting quietly at the keyboard

by PrionPartyy Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2009 at 12:12 PM

"sitting quietly and taping the procedings"

This time. What about in the past??? You point out that Silverstein recognized him. Why would he recognize him if he wasn't known for disrupting other meetings.

You can say that the only reason he was removed was because he disagreed with Silverstein. But that calls for speculation, which might work in the court of public opinion among some brainwashed tools, but not in any meaningfull court.

"genocidal Hamas"

Sure, because Hamas wants ALL of Palestine liberated from the Zionists occupying Palestinian lands, they get slandered as being genocidal. Oh, and what about the Tibetans who want their homeland liberated from the Chinese occupiers. Do they get slandered as being genocidal??? What about the Poles who wanted to liberate Poland from NAZI occupiers??? Nope, the only ones to get slandered as being genocidal for wanting to liberate their own homeland from murderous thieving invadors are the Palestinans. The only thing more pathetic than the people pushing such slander are the people who are prejudiced enough to buy into it.

Know what's pathetic, PrionPartyy?

That a guy like you who goes around IMCs saying that the Holocaust didn't happen expects anybody older than seven months to take him even slightly seriously about "zionists."

here's a curious thing

by hmmmm? Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2009 at 8:41 PM

we always see PP in the same forums at the same times that its adversary is filling the page with total insanity.
Everywhere.
Nit picking details while being hosed off by the adversary.
All, side stepping the fact that masses of innocent people were put into camps and forced to work themselves into disease and death. While details are quibbled about with much noise.
The Holocaust never ends.

You have the nerve, Sheepdog. After all, you're always throwing around "zionuts" and zioNazis" and slamming the LA-IMC too. Who could possibly take someone so hypocritical seriously?

individuals who decide to just 'take over' anything they want to in order to fill their racist "self-determination"

How far up your ass do you have to put your head in order to consider a million gassed to death at Auschwitz a "detail"?

devils & details

by wowzers Thursday, Oct. 29, 2009 at 10:51 AM

the details are when and who.
The fact itself is enough to abhor the psychopathy of a cult that assigns vermin status to a group of people.
Everything doesn't have to be about picking pepper out of gnat sh*t for your own selective victimhood.

the Palestine lobby is a gnat compaired to the AIPAC, ADL, SPLC all the dual [ Israeli } citizens from Rahm Emanuel as Obama's chief of staff on down, and you jabber about the Palestine lobby?
where is it on the media, here in my country?
No one can ever find it.
But we did have Stienfield to watch.

which was another reason to kill the TV.

back to the usual

by who? Thursday, Oct. 29, 2009 at 1:21 PM

as usual, staged photos are pathetic.
It seems to be the last stop before a total Tourrett's episode where you go back to merely spraying insults.
so you were saying something pathetic about the mighty Palestine lobby no one hears about or sees except in the fevered day-mares of the rabid zionist?
We were interested to know on what major media I could find them.
Between the visit Israel commercials.

"staged photos are pathetic"

by amazed Thursday, Oct. 29, 2009 at 2:00 PM

How VERY interesting. There's a thread at Stormfront's site that says the same thing!

But I digress. The image was "staged" at Islamabad, Pakistan, during a protest over Danish cartoons. Those wild and wacky Muslims are so dainty, so delicate, so mentally challenged, so constantly a victim, so quick to assign vermin status to all but themselves.

Their many media friendly outlets like ABC CBS MSNBC CNN etc?
They're just like your other positions, non existent.

Arab Big Oil Money

by Arab Big Oil Money Thursday, Oct. 29, 2009 at 2:43 PM

Arab Big Oil Money pulls the strings on so many U.S. politicians in ways that are un-seen to the public, like funding Jimmy Carter to spout their line. AIPAC is a drop in the bucket in comparison except to conspiracy freaks and Jew haters. Anyone recall the photos of Bush holding hands with a Saudi Sheikh? I personally recall reading a copy of the Advertising Age basck in the late '70s where Arafat had just made a milion dollar payment to one of the top public relations firms on Madison Avenue to get better press. They certainly get their money's worth in the American press now days!

'Arab' oil is Rockefeller oil and without the CIA holding these corrupt regimes together, they would be strung up by their angry subjects.
More of your strawmen excuses for having the criminal AIPAC lobby - *espionage anyone?
But never deterred, money talks.

* look up

"They're just like your other positions"

by not a bearded lady Thursday, Oct. 29, 2009 at 2:55 PM

My position is so strong, so thoroughly documented, so damaging to the Perpetual Victims of Palestine, that all you had to your name to was to say absolutely anything, ie the very noted and newsworthy image (at the time) was "staged".

Palestine is in dire straits, as witnessed by the caliber of "friends" it possesses.

if anyone were to scroll back, they'd see that You can't defend any of the point you brought up and noticed that you were unable to address. /except for the unknown people in hoodies from somewhere.
But insults ( which I bask in the warmth of because no higher praise could possible be bestowed by a psychopath like yourself ) you do seem to have.
Just means you ran plumb out of strawmen and catch phrases.

They're only "unknown" to desperate attention seekers who will say anything, anywhere, at any time, and that includes shitting in it's own nest, because zero credibility is all they have.

To everyone else, they were dangerous Muslims protesting cartoons, for crying out loud, in Islamabad, Pakistan in 2006.

sh*tting on the IMC

I wasn't me who shut down Cleveland and New Mexico and has acted like such a psychopathic asshole all over the web.
more ziomut hypocrisy and duplicity.
Just like all the other zionist psychopaths, it thinks it cannot do wrong no matter what it does.
Or is it merely trying to convince [ lie ] us that it only acted in 'self -defense'.

no one knows who was holding up the Hitler sign. It could have been you. The cropped image shows noting except that there are indeed loons lose in the world or blatant provocateurs ready for a photo op. Like the entire cartoon debacle promoted by who knows what inflammatory agenda.
Is this piece about Silverstine or your own personal problems that seem to be hosing off Arizona IMC right now?
