POPSMahmoud Ahmadinejad's Jewish Roots Revealed: "Heil Sabourjian!"
The phenomenon of Jews denouncing other Jews and being their own worst critics (and I do mean worst) is a well known one, in history down to the present day -- whether it's those who profess to still identify with the faith, as with some members of Jewish Voice for Peace (most have long since substituted Marxism for their religion and simply live off genetics), those whose parents converted (as with Marx), or those who converted out themselves and now prove their bona fides by trashing their former co-religionists. One thing's for sure, this is just more proof that there's something about those Jews -- always prime movers on every side of world-historical events and movements. In fact, maybe that's it! Ahmadinejad (nee Sabourjian) is just a ZIonist under deep cover, agitating for a war to bring about Iran's ultimate defeat and the massive expansion of Greater Israel's borders. Think about it, fever swampers. The title of course refers to the fact that Adolf Hitler's . . .

POPSOmar Khayyam - Rubaiyat Found the video first and remembered the book of poetry I had many years ago. I have a natural fascination for the sufi dancers. Children dance like this all the time and whilst mainstream Islam may not have a great name the Sufis have always felt "wondrous" to me. And if you have ever tried dancing like this - I totally understand why they do it!!! It's BLISS creating on a "feeling level".

POPS7.9.2009 Iran Blogging 18 tir Tonight, via reader Wilcoy, a new post. 7:30 PM ET -- "Russia, Iran will never forgive you." From a reader, "Just wanted to say that one of the photos you linked to says 'Russia, Iran will never forgive you'. Iranians care a lot about how other countries respond to this crisis."

Earlier today, the NYT reported: An Iranian blogger wrote on Twitter about one hour ago that in the Amirabad district of Tehran, "people are all on the roofs" to resume the nightly ritual of shouting "Allahu Akbar!"

POPS One Man Men mattered, not impersonal forces. Even in collectivized Sparta this was true. Soldiers and kings competed with each other for notice and praise. We take note of one of these men among a throng of heroes. His name was Leonidas. He was a king of Sparta. He lived, as the Chinese would say, in interesting times. His city-state—ironically once idealized by communists—had dominated and enslaved the Peloponnese for 300 years. Its army of 8,000 hoplites had seldom been defeated. Some 2500 years ago both it and its fellow Greek states faced their greatest challenge. For in far off Persia king Darius I was on the move. Since 547 BC much of Greek civilization in Asia Minor had been under Persian control, and it was a logical extension of this control that Persia desired to expand into the Aegean. This Persian imperialism brought what Herodotus called “the beginning of troubles” for Greece.

POPSA Dash of Truth and a Load of BS While the gist of this story is true, the "crudibility" factor is mighty high also. After the author lays out several valid points about the origins of Christianity he blows it at the end with his advert of his ESP and Inner Mind Development side business. It just goes to prove that you can't let your guard down for a second without letting the woo-woo crowd in. Well, enough said. I have to go and recharge the quartz crystal in my water pitcher!!!

POPSBBC: "Iran's proud but discreet Jews". The Truth, but not as you know it. Mahmoud Ahmedinejad office recently donated money for Tehran's Jewish hospital. It is one of only four Jewish charity hospitals worldwide and is funded with money from the Jewish diaspora - something remarkable in Iran where even local aid organisations have difficulty receiving funds from abroad for fear of being accused of being foreign agents. Most of the patients and staff are Muslim these days, but director Ciamak Morsathegh is Jewish. "Anti-Semitism is not an eastern phenomenon, it's not an Islamic or Iranian phenomenon - anti-Semitism is a European phenomenon," he says, arguing that Jews in Iran even in their worst days never suffered as much as they did in Europe. ...
