Dear Fellow Patriot!


Harvey Taylor forwarded me this article, written by
Senator John Kerry, on how he feels about Israel. If
you haven't read it yet, it's a must. With him, most
likely being the democratic contender for the
presidential election, we might just exchange evil for
evil:

"The Cause of Israel is the Cause of America"

By SEN. JOHN KERRY

My first trip to Israel made real for me all I'd
believed about Israel.

I was allowed to fly an air force jet from the Ovda
Airbase. It was then that Israeli insecurity about
narrow borders became very real to me. In a matter of
minutes, I came close to violating the airspace of
Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. From that moment on, I felt
as Israelis do: The promise of peace must be secure
before the Promised Land is secure on a thin margin of
land.

Back on the ground on that first trip, I toured the
country from Kibbutz Mizgav Am to Masada to the Golan.
I stood in the very shelter in a kibbutz in the north
where children were attacked and I looked at launching
sites and impact zones for Katousha rockets. I was
enthralled by Tel Aviv, moved by Jerusalem and
inspired by by standing above Capernaum, looking out
over the Sea of Galilee, where I read aloud the
Sermon on The Mount. I met people of stunning
commitment, who honestly and vigorously debated the
issues as I watched and listened intently. I went as a
friend by conviction; I returned a friend at the
deepest personal level.

As the only true democracy in the Middle East, Israel
has both the burden and the glory of a vigorous public
square. We as Americans must be the truest and best
kind of ally--forthright enough to say what we
think--and steadfast enough to stay the course in hard
passages as well as easy days.

Herzl's famous words--"If you will it, it is no
dream"--signify the promise and the greatest power of
Israel--and the hope that a fair and secure peace can
be achieved. We must be committed to support Israel in
the exacting, essential search for that dream.

I will never forget a moment on top of Masada, when I
stood on that great plateau where the oath of new
soldiers used to be sworn against the desert backdrop
and the test of history. I had spent several hours
with Yadin Roman debating whether or not Josephus
Flavius was correct in his account of the
siege--whether these really were the last Jews
fighting for survival--whether they had escaped since
no remains were ever found. After our journey through
history--which we resolved with a vote in favor of
history as recorded--we stood as a group at the end of
the cliff and altogether we shouted across the
chasm--across the
desert--Am Yisrael Chai. And across the silence we
listened as voices came back--faintly we heard the
echo of the souls of those who perished--Am Yisrael
Chai. The State of Israel lives. The people of
Israel live.

In this difficult time we must again reaffirm we are
enlisted for the duration--and reaffirm our belief
that the cause of Israel must be the cause of
America--and the cause of people of conscience
everywhere.

John Kerry is a Massachusetts Senator and a Democratic
Candidate for the Presidency of the United States.

Next is news from the ADL. I have known for a very
long time that the ADL trains US law enforcement in
Israel. An absolute outrage:

Police Prepare to Head off Hate Crimes and Extremism

ADL-Led Training Course Focuses On Quelling Rise of
White Supremacist Groups

Posted: February 18, 2004

Faced with an alarming rise in the number of
anti-Semitic incidents in 2003, Westchester County
(NY) has partnered with the Anti-Defamation League to
ensure that those messages of bigotry and hate don't
go any further.

About 40 police officers from throughout the county
took part in a new training program on February 17,
2004, that addresses hate crimes and extremism, and
specifically looks at how the Internet has encouraged
the spread of such propaganda. Taught by national
experts from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the
course showed effective techniques for combating
extremism and quelling the rise of white supremacist
group activities in Westchester County.

"We've seen a rash of hateful activities and
anti-Semitic vandalism right here in our backyard, and
that's something that simply won't be tolerated. One
incident is too many," said County Executive Andy
Spano. "We are going to do everything in our power to
make sure that bigotry and hatred don't find a home in
Westchester County. Specialized training for our
police departments is a good place to start."

According to figures announced today by the ADL, in
Westchester County alone, there were 26 anti-Semitic
incidents reported in 2003 - up from 7 in 2002 and 15
in 2001. These incidents ranged from synagogue
vandalism and hate mail on the Internet to ten
incidents of anti-Semitic vandalism, including:

On October 9, 2003, a Colonial Heights resident's car
was spray painted with three 15x15-inch swastikas in
Yonkers.

From August to November 2003, New World Order
pamphlets were distributed throughout Westchester
repeatedly. In the second week of December 2003,
National Socialist Movement information cards with
swastikas were left on cars in parking lots throughout
Westchester County.

On March 27, 2003, the Jewish Family Congregation was
vandalized with a swastika. Additionally, a large blue
swastika was spray painted on the Midchester Jewish
Center in Yonkers at the end of September, between
Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Swastikas were painted
on the Midchester Jewish Center once again on November
5, 2003.

"It's alarming to see such a significant increase in
the number of anti-Semitic incidents over the past
year," said Joel Levy, the New York regional director
of the Anti-Defamation League. "The ADL is troubled
that anti-Semites continue to vandalize property and
threaten residents of Westchester County, and is
working to combat such activities through law
enforcement training, educational programs, and public
exposure of these hateful groups."

Spano noted that the numbers of hate-related incidents
is probably even higher, given that many incidents are
never even reported.

Today police officers, investigators and instructors
also learned about the extremists' ideologies and the
criminal tactics those ideologies may generate;
effective investigation, solving and prosecuting
techniques; and resources and guidelines for
protecting the communities most threatened by criminal
extremism.

"Unfortunately incidences of hate have become an issue
in Westchester, and it's something we in the law
enforcement community need to be well briefed on,"
said Public Safety Commissioner Tom Belfiore. "We
wanted to bring in the best training available when it
comes to recognizing and investigating hate crimes.
Therefore we are pleased to be able to sponsor this
training and give local departments the resources to
combat hate."

This is the first time this particular course is being
offered in Westchester County, but the department
hopes to follow up with future training programs.
Belfiore noted that the department also tracks
web-based mailings and works to identify the sources.

One of today's sessions focused on "Hate on the
Internet" and included a presentation on some of the
extensive websites used by extremist groups with
histories of violence. For example, computer video
games allow participants to dress up as a Klansman and
then chase down and kill "subhumans." Anti-Semitic
rock music can be downloaded onto CDs and used to
recruit new members into hate movements.

Electronic conversations take place every day on
numerous extremist Internet Relay Chat channels, such
as #Nazi and #Klan. Members of hate groups debate,
rant, and insult their opponents in public discussion
groups (or newsgroups) with titles such as
alt.politics.white-power and alt.revisionism. Hundreds
of web pages contain bomb-making formulas.

"It's absolutely shocking to see the extent of hate
materials readily available on the Internet," Spano
said.

In a related effort, Westchester County is also
preparing to unveil a new website that outlines the
mandate of the Human Rights Commission, stating why it
is illegal to discriminate in employment, public
facilities, renting or selling real estate or offering
credit based on someone's religion, race, sexual
orientation, nationality, age, gender, disability,
etc. It will also direct those who have been victims
of "physical intimidation or acts of hate and physical
violence" to contact the Human Rights Commission. The
website, expected to go up next week, is at
www.westchestergov.com/humanrightscommission.

Levy added that he applauded Westchester County for
leading the fight against hate crimes and
anti-Semitism in the region.

"The county executive's dedication to the fight
against anti-Semitism and bigotry is a model for
political leaders across the nation," Levy said.

Please contact ADL for more information about our
training opportunities for law enforcement
professionals.

And a word from Mary Minshall on the state of public
schools:

[START]

Thank you for publishing your report on the sorry
state of what is being taught in the Sacramento
schools. No wonder so many parents are opting for
home schooling these days. Also, when do they find
time to teach mathematics, chemistry, physics, and
biology, not to mention English grammar, world history
(the part about Egypt, Rome, Medieval Europe, and the
other foundations of our culture), English literature
(Shakespeare, Browning, etc.), German, French, and, of
course, Latin. No wonder Americans are flunking all
those tests they give, while other countries' kids
pass with flying colors.

I am the editor of VOICES, the bi-monthly periodical
for the European American Issues Forum, "a moderate
and thoughtful civil rights organization dedicated to
the eradication of discrimination against and
defamation of European Americans. We do not denigrate
or slur other racial/ethnic groups and welcome those
who support our policy. Established 1997, San Mateo
County, California" and I would like to ask for your
permission to quote or paraphrase this portion of The
Truth is Back (17 Feb. 2004). We are currently helping
students form European American or Caucasian clubs in
high schools and as you are aware from current reports
of events at Cotate High and Freedom High Schools in
the SF Bay Area, these kids have a tough time.

You are right: Where are the parents' complaints? I
know of one family whose son is in high school on a
special "home study" program that is half-way
between full homeschooling and attendance, and from
what I am told, most parents are so thoroughly
brainwashed they go along with the system.

I read your electronic newsletter every day and am so
glad to have you pointing out these injustices in the
world. Fortunately, my children are grown, but both
went to public school during the 70s and endured the
same thing as you described. I remember Black History
Month was full of projects on black people, including
a country in Africa, while Asian New Year was fully
celebrated, along with all the Mexican holidays. Poor
George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were left out.

I also subscribe to Community News and read each issue
from cover to cover.

Sincerely,

Mary Minshall

Abebooks lists 69, 376 books about Hitler as the key

the key word Roosevelt was keyed in. This would
include books on  Theodore Roosevelt too of course.
27,836 books on Winston Churchill as the key word.
