The world is horrified by the event, and are rushing to aid Pakistan.
The United States is sending 10 billion dollars immediately with more expected to follow
The United Kingdom is sending food, clothing, and supplies to aid the suffering citizens.
Canada is sending 500,000 replacement Pakastanis.

to discredit all Indymedia as a valid source of information. The editors here, as often as not, let it happen. Why?

by gehrig
Editors -- the original post is obviously a lame attempt at an anti-Pakistani joke and should be hidden.

Nessie, if anyone wanted to discredit Indymedia, all they'd have to do is point to you.

Indybay: haven for racists



Gehrig actively promotes apartheid all over this site. The editors here let him. The editors of SF-IMC do not. On SF-IMC, racist propaganda is removed the minute we spot it. If you are an anti-racist, this tells you everything you need to know about the difference between the two sites, and the people who run them. You are either a racist or an anti-racist. There is no middle ground. If you talk an anti-racist line, but do nothing, you are not an anti-racist. You are an enabler of racism, and an impediment to the anti-racist cause. Talk is cheap. Only action matters.

If you're tired of seeing Indymedia's good name dragged in the gutter by racists like Gehrig, and his politically incoherent enablers, then *do* something about it. Help clean up Indymedia's fast fading reputation a place where truth can be found, where justice, equality and peace are promoted, and where activists of the Global Justice Movement, not our enemies, are enabled.

Gee, he dodged the question _again_. What is it that he doesn't want to admit about imc-process?

And, wouldn'tcha know it, he dodged the question _again_, in favor of a paragraph of clicking his ruby slippers together and saying "comes the revolution..."

Besides yourself, how many IMC liasons mailed imc-process to support the proposal in the twenty-four hours or so before it was withdrawn? Care to tell the fine folks? Don't be shy.

Meanwhile, out here in reality land, anyone looking at the imc-process archive can see that one of your pet Mussolini-isms was proposed in the central IMC decision-making forum and was shot down literally within hours. _Without_ the intervention of Thuh Zionist Conspiracy.

And your response is that of the classic Cubs fan: "Yeah, well, shit, wait 'til next year."

Most of the world always opposed Zionism.

Who will kick the bucket sooner, Israel or Nazi authoritarian emulator nessie & soapbox? Stay tuned.

That's what they said about the Third Reich. Countries come and go. Israel will go. This is beyond any doubt. It's only a matter of time. What is in doubt is what will take its place, a secular and democratic society or a bunch of smoking craters.

You *will* kick the bucket along with your soapbox, and that will mean one less bastion of censorship in the world. No one can fill your "shoes" as La Censor De La Censors.

And I'll outlive Israel.

The end is near, CT. Your racist atrocity is doomed. Demographics alone guarantee it.
by Critical Thinker
I'm *much* younger than you and you have no human way of foreseeing you'll outlive Israel, let alone me. Unless you revert to being a "historian", that is (which you once claimed you were).

The US is your racist atrocity as much as mine. Think about it. Demographics aren't everything -- Jews had prospered as minorities in different countries. Only the unwise posit that demographics guarantee an end.

I guess you saw that in the same crystal ball through which you derived some time ago your conviction that immortality is within science's reach.

>>>"They [Jews] are already a minority in the territory they control militarily, which includes all of Palestine, not just "Israel proper." "<<<

Wrong, sunshine. Currently Jews outnumber Arabs within the Land of Israel by about a 60%-40% or a 55%-45% ratio. You need to learn to do at least a *tiny* bit of homework to avoid spouting wrong "facts".

I deduced it from decades of observation. In most places, people who behave like you come to bad ends, and good riddance. I learned that immortality is within our grasp by reading scientific literature and by talking to scientists I know personally who have done work in the field.


>Currently Jews outnumber Arabs within the Land of Israel by about a 60%-40% or a 55%-45% ratio.

(1.) That ratio is unlikely to last more than a couple decades at the very most. Israeli Arabs are reproducing at a higher rate than Israeli Jews.

(2.) The so-called “Land of Israel” is only a part of the territory under Zionist control. Israel “proper” is only part of Palestine. The rest is a glorified Bantustan, and not all that glorified, either. People who live there are under the military control of a government in which they have no say. Add their numbers to the numbers of Israeli Arabs, and you will quickly see that Jews are outnumbered in Palestine, and with each passing year, becoming more so. Israel is doomed. Get used to it.
