Apparently, the two young men (of whose religion we may not speak) with the untraceable cell phone collection in my home state, were planning to blow up the bridge. It’s certainly the most compelling target in the state, particularly given on what hard times downtown Detroit has fallen.
Still, the Ambassador or Bluewater bridges would have been much more convenient. Hey, here’s an idea–they could blow up the Windsor Tunnel and flood Detroit! With any justice (and a lot of luck), they could submerge Dearborn itself. To heck with those pesky laws of physics.
The People’s Cube says that this latest escapade in Lebanon isn’t the first time that those high-strung Jews have overreacted:
In 1943, Europe itself suffered from a similar Jewish overreaction to some controversial German policies, in an event known as the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, when Zionist radicals attacked the National Socialist German Workers Party that was loved by the German people for its far-reaching educational and social welfare services. In fact, many academics who teach Peace Studies at prestigious universities believe that it was the Zionists’ “disproportionate use of force” that had ruined hopes for peace in Europe and caused a humanitarian crisis that could have easily be avoided if only Jews had shown restraint and tolerance towards the democratically elected German government.
Brilliant.
And here’s a related post off the same link–a report from Germany by what appears to be Kevins Sites’ grandfather.
I wonder if I could dig up an old interview by Mike Wallace with Hitler, in which Mr. Wallace told us how reasonable, rational and serious he seemed? All they wanted was Lebensraum, after all.

We can’t avoid this war, because Iran won’t let us avoid it. That is the real analogy to the 1930s. Hitler came to power espousing the goal of German world domination, openly promising to conquer neighboring nations through military force and to persecute and murder Europe’s Jews. He predicted that the free nations of the world would be too weak
I just got a review copy of the book “Debunking 9/11 Myths,” which is a book version of the in-depth investigation that Popular Mechanics did. It’s in a similar format to Snopes, with a “Claim” (the myth), then a “Fact,” in which the evidence and physics are brought to bear to debunk it. It looks like an interesting book, from an engineering standpoint. What the book doesn’t explain, of course, is why (besides Bush derangement) people buy into these nutty conspiracy theories. I hope that PM sends a copy to Cynthia McKinney, though she doesn’t seem like the type that reads books, particularly factual ones.
“It is our love of these innocents that endangers them. If we did not care if children died, they would be in little danger.”
“That cannot be,” she replies in anger.
“But it is so,” I contest. “If we did not care if our children died, they would not be targets. There would be no reason to target them, because we would not be moved by their deaths.
“If we did not care if their children died,” I add, “there would be no reason to clutter military emplacements with their presence. If it were not that we are horrified by the deaths of children, the enemy’s children would be clear of all places of battle — because they are, except for the fact that we love them, a hindrance.”
She bites her lip.
“Of course, we cannot cut out our hearts,” I tell her. “Nor should we — as we wish to remain men, and good men, rather than monsters. Yet it is our love that is the chief danger to the innocent now — to our own innocents, and theirs also.”
Here’s a pretty spectacular Darwin Award finalist–a man who took a sledgehammer to a grenade. No apparent big loss, but sadly, he badly injured a co-worker as well.
