In 2008, prior to Paul McCartney’s scheduled performance in Israel, Sheikh Omar Bakri – the “Tottenham Ayatollah” – warned: “If he values his life Mr McCartney must not come to Israel. He will not be safe there. The sacrifice operatives will be waiting for him.”
McCartney (yeah, I know, he’s a vegan, and he smokes the dooby-doo) went ahead and played anyway, for the state of Israel’s 60th anniversary.
Here’s one of the more memorable songs from his days with Wings: The title track from the 1975 album Venus and Mars.

Well, the Ayatollah and his minions would be wasting their time.
The real Paul died in 1966 and was replaced with an immaculate double, gotcha know!
Seriously, there is a whole, well, cult, devoted to outting the “faux” Paul……(sigh)
Well darn. I thought Elvis replaced him.
How come the IPCC is so quiet about this ?

Disregard this at your own risk. All is not sunshine and roses……as many of us have been saying for years now , contrary to what keeps coming from the community organizer in chief.

Is Hamas a friend of Palestine or using it as a reason to kill Israelis? Why are so many here taking to the streets waving flags for Palestine and also terrorist Hamas flags as an homogenous group when the Hamas are killing Palestinians as well?
Was the UN calling for a ceasefire when the rockets were fired into Israel or was it just when Israel decided t go in and defend her country? Hamas are terrorists, the UN has to make that declaration, so do the Palestinians who gather to protest in our streets.
Why so many foreign flags in our streets at these demonstrations should be another consideration, this is Canada, we have a flag and proud citizens wave it. Why are protesters who have citizenship here not on side with this country in siding with the country being attacked by terrorists?
If they are duals they should go to where their heart is and fight and stay there, not take the fight to the streets of Canada, this is not a middle east war zone run by people madly possessed with ingrained hatred.
No country can be strong with dual citizens who are here for safety, convenience and the good life to breed and seethe hatred to their future generations. It can’t work, it doesn’t bode well for Canada.

$500 bucks a ticket sounds high for that type of activity.
Heh. The past-times of the rich and famous. You know, the upper crust…the ivory tower set…Yeah, that’s it…tower trash.
Well said Liz; Cheers;
Well spoken Liz. And so many of the Dumb Leftists who bark and squawk have no knowledge of the real history of the area in the Middle East called Palistine.
This video with Bill Wittle and the one that was posted on SDA earlier this week about the shame and honour culture should be watched by everyone. Probably the people living there too.

I have recently noticed that a certain soft drink manufacturer in their most recent kumbya “like to teach the world to be PC” marketing campaign has invited potential consumers of its bottled product by replacing their product moniker with common names.
Try as I might I couldn’t find any bottle named, Israel, Moses, or Jesus.
But I did find one labelled Mohammed.
Surely this must be an oversight.
Good on Sir Paul 🙂

Joseph, it would be nice to know which company that is, so that we can avoid purchasing their product. Might it be the same one that had or still has a polar bear logo?
avoid purchasing their product.
Don’t buy any of that corn sugar crap, it’s not healthy, regardless of the label.
Can someone tell me why we can’t buy dates that are not from Iran? California and Mexico I’m sure have date palms and could supply us at least with a choice. The less we buy from the ME trouble spots and trouble makers or suppliers of arms to same the better. Our Conservative government needs to hear from us on the small things as well as the bigger ones, the add up and we are in effect aiding and abetting by trading with them.

“To overcome the inability to wage his favorite method of diplomacy — one-on-one discussions spanning many hours — Kerry transformed himself into a one-man call center in Cairo. He made dozens of phone calls every night last week to as many as 11 foreign ministers, as well as frequent calls to Netanyahu.”
What, him again? This will doubtless inspire Bibi to legislate a “do not call list” law in Israel.
The CBC thought police are at it again!!
With regards to the 24 hour cease fire that was soon terminated. My comment was:
”A message to Israel. Aim well–shoot straight!”
Comment was disabled. Not hard to figure who’s side the CBC is on. I wonder of they would have published it if I’d have sided with Hamas??
