Pancake breakfast!

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel ping list.

WARNING: This is a high volume ping list

They'd established that yes, this was a serious campaign, and they left with the hope that the yellow-shirted controller would tell his boss all about his uncomfortable afternoon, who would tell his supplier, who would tell his boss, who would tell his, who would tell his. Until one day, Caterpillar stopped selling bulldozers to Israel.

Yep, that's what's going to happen, all right. No doubt about it. Problem solved.

"Yep, that's what's going to happen, all right."

Yeah, and Mitsubishi, Hyundai, Terex, just to name a few heavy equipment manufacturers will rush right in offering their wares.

I noticed that the malcontents went to the EVIL Starbucks for debriefing. They need to get on the same page as the rest of the publix squol gradiates that make up the base of these moronic protesters.

The people have the right to congrigate and to address the government for redresses of grieveances, however a Cat dealership is not the governmet and disrupting business is nothing more than low-grade terrorism, the threat of worse to come is implied.

[gcruse]

Why do these people have a problem with me? I don't even work for Caterpillar.

The author managed to use that sentence twice, the second time in association with people who worked in the cubicles.  They had to have been working for Caterpillar, so one is left to wonder if the purpose is to link people who don't work for Caterpillar, yet allow Israel to defend herself, with 'good Germans' who weren't Nazis, or anyone who excuses another's misdeeds by reason of not having direct involvement.  It's a sticky wicket but, unless this...

...forever turned off to the activists' cause, as if personally insulted by their righteous implications...

...is to be taken as sarcasm, then it's a fair cop.

[Who dat?]

They had to have been working for Caterpillar,…

They work for Peterson Tractor. Peterson Tractor is essentially a Caterpillar authorized dealership and Cat-authorized repair/maintenance facility, and participates in Cat apprenticeship programs, but they do sell and repair other-than-Cat products (and are "authorized" by those companies too, IIRC). Last I remember, the bulk of their business involved Cat machinery though.

But technically they don’t work for Cat – they work for Peterson. Peterson hired them, Peterson signs the pay checks... I'm pretty sure that's what they were referring to.

Jewish Voice for Peace

Lest anyone be misled by the name, this is an ultra-left, anti-Jewish Adam Shapiro terror-shilling front group.

reading Jewish prayers and holding lit candles.

Like Neturei Karta but without the payess and frisbee hats.

Here's their website, they should've called it "Jerks Voice for Palestine".

"Angry Young Man" -Billy Joel

"Angry Young Man"

There's a place in the world for the angry young man
With his working class ties and his radical plans
He refuses to bend, he refuses to crawl,
He's always at home with his back to the wall.
And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost,
And he struggles and bleeds as he hangs on the cross-
And he likes to be known as the angry young man.

Give a moment or two to the angry young man,
With his foot in his mouth and his heart in his hand.
He's been stabbed in the back, he's been misunderstood,
It's a comfort to know his intentions are good.
And he sits in a room with a lock on the door,
With his maps and his medals laid out on the floor-
And he likes to be known as the angry young man.

I believe I've passed the age of consciousness and righteous rage
I found that just surviving was a noble fight.
I once believed in causes too,
I had my pointless point of view,
And life went on no matter who was wrong or right.

And there's always a place for the angry young man,
With his fist in the air and his head in the sand.
And he's never been able to learn from mistakes,
So he can't understand why his heart always breaks.
But his honor is pure and his courage as well,
And he's fair and he's true and he's boring as hell-
And he'll go to the grave as an angry old man.

And his music, visit your public library!

thanks for clearing it up that the group is "anti-Jewish."

I was beginning to wonder if these idiots would have demonstrated against the Allies at Dachau and Auschwitz.
