Sunday at the seashore

I forgot my OLYMPUS DSLR at home and only had an old HP 318 in the car. No focusing ability, couldn't control lens aperture, oh well! They could have been nice shots...

The following review of my page was posted by Raven-IV

Raven-IV
This review is re. the political blog (Freedom's cost) chaimke is running and promoting on his, otherwise gentle, SU blog. His political blog is a very sad example of the hate of many Jews against Muslims in general; it's pro-war, extreme right-wing, neo-con drivel trying to make a point that all of Israel's neighbors have to be exterminated.
Of course all of this is under the disguise of defending the "free world". I am appalled by this blunt show of ignorance of the countless civilian victims in Iraq and Palestine and he tries, with shameless bias for the fascist Zionists, to drag the USA even further into their senseless blood-feud. This hate is the same hate which made the holocaust during WW II
possible.
Some people never learn the lessons of history...

Anyone has a right to like or dislike, love or hate, another SUer's page or his/her outside blog. But... how do I interpret these words? His political blog is a very sad example of the hate of many Jews against Muslims in general; it's pro-war, extreme right-wing, neo-con drivel trying to make a point that all of Israel's neighbors have to be exterminated... This hate is the same hate which made the holocaust during WWII possible. To my meager understanding, it means that the Jews were responsible for the Holocaust, just as Mein Kampf says!

No doubt Raven-IV will accuse me of putting words in his mouth, he will claim I label him antisemitic... I am neither accusing nor saying anything. I hope you, my visitors, will enlighten me as to the meaning of those words.

At the same time I invite anyone to find anywhere in my blog anything that says or hints, even remotely, that I advocate neo-con drivel trying to make a point that all of Israel's neighbors have to be exterminated. It is nowhere to be found!!! I never advocated it! I never called for it! I never hinted it. Anyone reading my posts knows that!!!

I must wonder why, if Raven-IV truly believes what he says, does he lack the courage to comment in the appropriate forum, on the blog itself. Is he afraid of an open discussion? Why not bring all his friends, then? Slak (my co-blogger, a Frenchman of Arab Muslim descent) and I allow every comment (pro or con) as long as it's not a personal attacks on the posters or any commenter.

Between Slak and I, we have published 434 posts, I challenge anyone to find one page, one paragraph, one sentence, one word, where we try to drag the USA even further into their senseless anything! Frankly, never have I nor Slak done that. But, we have well established that innuendoes, mistruths and other cheap tricks are the overused weapons Raven-IV, is so fond of. Reasoned debate is not in his arsenal.

While Raven-IV has no problem accusing me of the worst prejudice, I will not reciprocate. No, gentle visitor, instead I appeal to every single one of you to enlighten me as to what Raven-IV really meant by these words: His political blog is a very sad example of the hate of many Jews against Muslims in general; it's pro-war, extreme right-wing, neo-con drivel trying to make a point that all of Israel's neighbors have to be exterminated... This hate is the same hate which made the holocaust during WW II possible.

I am glad to see that warwithin found it worthy of his time to expand on his review of my pages. The expanded review reads as follows:

warwithin
"A wolf in sheep's clothing with an agenda of disinformation and propaganda...it always saddens me when online communities are infiltrated for sinister purposes...do not believe anything on his blog it is all shamefully tailored propaganda and lies, terrible sweeping generalizations and ignorance...to spread ignorance to sway people to achieve a political goal might seem like a good idea at first, but eventually that ignorance will, like frankenstein's monster return to haunt you.... Furthermore, using cowardly tactics such as Hey I dont think all brown skinned people are terrorists extremists, Im just a nice guy, but here are some carefully selected one sided articles that do to alleviate yourself from any responsibility....you cannot speak ill of Chomsky as he at least has the integrity to present both sides of an argument p.s. mentioning you have an arab friend does not automatically give you credibility..."

Should he further expand it or change, I promise to post the latest edition. Meanwhile those of you who have bothered reading my political blog more than once, know how wrong the individual is. I dare him to find one instance anywhere in Freedom's Cost where I or my Arab blog co-editor, slak who lives in France, have ever said or even remotely implied anything about "brown skinned" being any different by virtue of their skin, than any other skin color... in fact a careful reading of my blog will show the very opposite of what warwithin's scurrilous attack implies.

As for Chomsky, I've known Noam since long before he had any thoughts of making political statements or writing on the subject. Chomsky has never met an anti-American dictator he disliked (he met with Assad and praised him, while the UN is about to start its tribunal against the despot). Hugo Chavez considers Chomsky his hero, the same Hugo Chavez who when speaking at the UN was so outrageous in his attack of GW Bush that both Charles Rangel and Nancy Pelosi (unless I'm mistaken, neither has any love lost for the prez, right?) came to Dubya's defense.

By innuendo, by lying, by distorting and outright inventing warwithin shows himself to be one of those who when unable to reason will, therefore, in the hallowed tradition of Richard Nixon blatantly misstate the truth.

warwithin, obviously unable to use any ideas and facts to attack ideas and facts must resort to personal attack. If he is so sure or the righteousness of his cause, so morally outraged at what I say why does he not prove with indisputable facts where I'm wrong?

Obviously, I touched a raw nerve... By the way, why does he not discuss my political blog on my political blog where others can get also in the act?

This is a photo blog. Yes, it links to Freedom's Cost, but no one has to follow the link, unless they actually want to.

Again, I must thank warwithin for attacking me here, I am proud to be on the list of his foes.

After just over two years in the SU community, after 382 reviews I was wondering when it would happen:
warwithin just gave me the following negative review:
"A wolf in sheep's clothing with an agenda of disinformation and propaganda...it always saddens me when online communities are infiltrated for sinister purposes...do not believe anything on his blog it is all shamefully tailored propaganda and lies...to spread ignorance to sway people to achieve a political goal might seem like a good idea at first, but eventually that ignorance will like frankenstein's monster return to haunt you..."

As "Frankenstein's monster" I'm honored... considering the source. Thank you warwithin!!!
