The UN Coordinator on Humanitarian Access to Gaza on Wednesday called for the immediate opening of the Karni crossing, in order to transfer
humanitarian supplies to Palestinians.“Without the violence stopping, it is extremely difficult to get food to people who need it, we cannot assess where the most urgent needs are, and it is too dangerous for civilians to leave their homes to seek urgent medical treatment, buy supplies and assist people in distress,” Maxwell Gaylard said in a statement.

You never have to wait long for the United Nations to exhibit it’s profound ignorance and bias against Israel.
Why doesn’t Egypt provide the aid, or open it’s border. They are not under rocket attack.
And why don’t the diplomats come and help? Not the security forces, but the diplomats that spew their nonsense from a safe distance? Put some skin in the game. Or just stay out of it. Africa still needs some help, if the U.N. doesn’t have anything better to do.
We wanted to give a quick thanks to everyone who has visited, and hopefully enjoyed, WinkyDog.
We will continue to provide information and commentary that might not be found in the Main Stream Media or other news sources you may follow.
Again, Thank you so much.
You probably need to get rid of the Kabbalah bracelet Dhimmi-DumbAss, before someone cuts your head off, if they’re not scared to death of you…
On second thought, keep it on.
In humble opinion, there is something about Obama’s birth certificate that he doesn’t want us to see. I doubt it’s his place of birth, but how can anyone know. And why hasn’t the issue of eligibility, based on dual citizenship, been tackled by the courts?
I can only surmise that since his election, the powers that be are much more afraid of the social consequences of disqualifying Barack Obama, than whether he is, in fact, eligible for the job.
This article sums up the oddities of this issue, without sinking into conspiracy theory:
Diana West.netIn the spirit of continuing inquiry, a friend writes in with some common sense from the Northeast Intelligence Network blog, excerpted below:Perhaps it is no coincidence that this article is being published on December 7th, 2008, the 67th anniversary of the attack on America by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on this day in 1941. Barack Hussein OBAMA contends that he was born in Hawaii, a claim that despite countless erroneous media reports and reckless, poorly researched postings on numerous Internet Blogs to the contrary, has yet to be proven by Barack Hussein OBAMA or anyone else named as co-defendants.Of the three aforementioned lawsuits, two raise questions about his actual location of birth (Berg, Keyes), while the third (Donofrio) focuses on his citizenship status. (While this might admittedly be an oversimplification, I believe it is a sufficient characterization for the purpose of this article).Instead, Barack Hussein OBAMA, in conjunction with the co-defendants, has reportedly spent between $800,000 to close to $1,000,000 (one million dollars), using at least three different law firms to fight these civil actions. Now, consider that each and every one of the lawsuits filed against him could be immediately dismissed by the mere production of a single piece of paper that is available to him for the paltry sum of $12.50 at a recorder’s office in Hawaii….To me, Barack Obama’s choice of tactic–money-consuming, time-consuming, court-consuming, rumor-producing lawsuits in multiple states–is the most tantalizing fact of all. Why not pay Hawaii $12.50 to release his long-form original birth certificate?(hat tip: FSM)Bottom line: It sure sounds as if We, the People, are being conned–about something–and failed by our representatives on every level. Read article.
Presbyterian? Baptist! Catholic, or perhaps a Jew…?
You would think, in a logical world, that the help line would encourage Mexicans in the U.S. illegally to return home, and re-enter America without breaking our laws. Hmmmmm… I’m sure that’s going to happen.
PHOENIX (Reuters) - The Mexican government has opened a special call center in Arizona to provide a sympathetic ear for citizens caught up in crackdown on illegal immigration in the desert state.
Officials at the Mexican consulate in Tucson said they opened the center last week. It is available 24-hours-a-day to field complaints from Mexican nationals about their treatment in the border state, where as many as half a million illegal immigrants live and work in the shadows.
“We want to offer a human voice at the other end of the line, so they can feel protected and know that someone is here for them,” Alejandro Ramos, head of the consulate’s Department of Protection, told Reuters.

If gay kids need there own high school, I assume we’ll need publicly funded Muslim schools, Mexican and Jewish high schools, and maybe racist, homophobic, white kids can get their own playground as well…… No? Where does inane liberalism end?
From TownHall:
President-elect Barack Obama’s nominee to become Secretary of Eduction has supported specially designated high schools for gay, lesbian and transgendered teens.
“If you look at national studies, you see gay and lesbian students with high dropout rates…Studies show they are disproportionately homeless,” Duncan said at a October 2008 event where he recommended the gay school be built. “I think there is a niche there we need to fill.”
As Chicago’s Head of Public Schools Arne Duncan recommended the School for Social Justice Pride Campus, Chicago’s first school for gay youth. Moreover, educators at this school believe it could be a model for a national program for educating gay teens.
Advocates for the school ultimately expect 600 children will attend Pride Campus, which was scheduled to open in 2010 until members of the design team called off a critical vote on it in November, over conflicts between Chicago clergy members and school planners.
Information from the school’s website says:
The Social Justice High School–Pride Campus would improve on current conditions for LGBTQA youth in Chicago’s public schools and would be a national model for best practices in the education of LGBTQA youth.We will teach the history of all people who have been oppressed and the civil rights movements that have led to social justice and queer studies…
Our school is dedicated to the principles of the hunger strike that brought the school into existence, namely social justice oriented principles and values such as truth and transparency, collective community power, struggle and sacrifice, and ownership and agency.
Biden put out to pasture before term begins

Mr Biden is likely to be the least powerful vice-president since Dan Quayle, the hapless deputy to President George Bush Snr, who left office in 1993.
He will not be allowed to sit in on the caucus meetings of Senate Democrats or to have an office next to the House of Representatives floor, both privileges Mr Cheney was given by congressional Republicans.
He will not receive his own intelligence briefing each morning, as Mr Cheney did, or have a specific portfolio and a guaranteed daily lunch with the president, as Mr Gore negotiated with Bill Clinton.
The presence of Hillary Clinton, President-elect Barack Obama’s choice for Secretary of State, is likely to diminish Mr Biden’s voice in his specialist field of foreign policy.
Mrs Clinton is building a large staff of loyal aides and is certain to take advantage of a network of long-time allies from her husband’s administration who have been brought in by Mr Obama.
Although Mr Biden, 66, who has spent 36 years in the Senate and has never held an executive position, apparently views the change in his role as a necessary correction from what he saw as Mr Cheney’s unwarranted influence, some Democrats fear that he could become a marginal figure.
“It looks as if the new vice-president will be only one of many people with a seat at President Obama’s table,” said a prominent Democrat with close ties to Mr Biden.
“But he seems to be happy with the situation – he has no further political ambitions and I think he’s just overjoyed with getting the job.
“Hillary Clinton is likely to keep him boxed in on foreign affairs and Mr Biden himself has made clear what he feels about Mr Cheney meddling in intelligence matters. The vice-president elect will respect the constitution and the limits of his powers.”
A transition official, talking to “Politico” website, presented Mr Biden’s reduced role and his determination not to run a “shadow presidency” as a virtue for both him and the Obama administration.
Mr Biden had been clear from the outset “that he was not going to take a portfolio in particular areas” but he would be “available widely and broadly to offer his advice on whatever hard questions the president was trying to decide”.
The official added that Mr Biden was likely to attend many fewer meeting than Mr Cheney. “He’ll attend those meetings where he can he helpful in gathering information and in helping to formulate the advice he’ll be giving the president.”
