Secret Soviet Reveals: Wiezmann Outlined the Nakba as Early as 1941!
Secret Soviet Reveals: Wiezmann Outlined the Nakba as Early as 1941 ~ Gilad Atzmon, Whatsupic.
Whatsupic — Forthcoming in G. Gorodetsky (ed.), A Red Ambassador to the Court of St. James's: The Diaries of Ivan Maisky, 1932-43.
Introduction by Gilad Atzmon
The following is a unique historical document. It is an extract from The Diaries of Ivan Maisky, the Soviet Ambassador to Britain from 1932 to 1943. As far as I am aware this is the debut online appearance of this invaluable document.
Maisky, a former Menshevik of Jewish origin, kept a highly personal diary. He recorded conversations with five British prime ministers, as well as with many other prominent British politicians.
In this extract, written on 3 February 1941, Maisky recounts his brief meeting with the Zionist leader Chaim Weizmann, later the first president of Israel. Maisky provides crucial insights into the history of Zionism including the brutality of the Jewish plan for Palestine and the Middle East. Noticeably, the document reveals that an intention to expel the Palestinians was explored by Zionist leaders as early as 1941.
Weizmann begins the meeting with a business plan. "Weizmann came to discuss the following matter," says Maisky, "at present Palestine has no market for her oranges – would the USSR take them in exchange for furs? It would be easy to sell the furs through Jewish firms in America." Establishing a Jewish nation is a cheerful event, but if is even better if one can earn some shekels on the side. Clearly, even in 1941, Zionism saw itself as part of a global financial venture.
Weizmann was clearly troubled by 'the English'. "The English" Weizmann complains, "don't like Jews." While the "Palestinian Arabs are the kind of guinea pigs the (British) administrator is used to," Says Weizmann. "The Jews reduce him to despair. They are dissatisfied with everything, they ask questions, they demand answers …But the main thing is that the administrator constantly feels that the Jew is looking at him and thinking to himself: "Are you intelligent? But maybe I'm twice as intelligent as you."
Those who believe that the racially driven expulsion of the Palestinians from their land in 1948 was the result of a series of tragic events, can discover from Maisky's diary that in 1941 an ethnic cleansing plan had already been outlined. Maisky writes in his diary: "For the only 'plan' which Weizmann can think of to save central European Jewry (and in the first place Polish Jewry) is this: to move a million Arabs now living in Palestine to Iraq, and to settle four or five million Jews from Poland and other countries on the land which the Arabs had been occupying."
"I expressed some surprise about how Weizmann hoped to settle five million Jews on territory occupied by one million Arabs," Maiky writes.
"'Oh, don't worry', Weizmann burst out laughing. 'The Arab is often called the son of the desert. It would be truer to call him the father of the desert. His laziness and primitivism turn a flourishing garden into a desert. Give me the land occupied by a million Arabs, and I will easily settle five times that number of Jews on it.'"
It is painful that this ethno-centric approach prevailed. Seven years after this intimate meeting in London, the new Israelites expelled the vast majority of the Palestinians. Those Palestinians and their descendants remain dispossessed and many of them are forced to live in refugee camps in the region. Those who managed to evade expulsion were then and continue to be subject to Israeli racial discrimination and daily abuse.

3 February 1941
A few days ago I had an unexpected visitor: the well-known Zionist leader Dr. Weizmann. He is a tall, elderly, elegantly dressed gentleman with a pale yellow tinge to his skin and a large bald patch on his head. His face is very wrinkled and marked by dark blotches of some kind. His nose is aquiline and his speech calm and slow. He speaks excellent Russian, although he left Russia forty-five years ago.
Weizmann came to discuss the following matter: at present Palestine has no market for her oranges – would the USSR take them in exchange for furs? It would be easy to sell the furs through Jewish firms in America.
I answered Weizmann by saying that off hand I could not say anything definite, but I promised to make enquiries. However, as a preliminary reply, I said that the Palestinian Jews should not place any great hopes on us: we do not, as a rule, import fruit from abroad. I was proved right. Moscow turned down Weizmann's proposal, and I sent him a letter to that effect today.
In the course of the conversation about oranges, Weizmann talked about Palestinian affairs in general. Furthermore, he spoke about the present situation and the prospects for world Jewry. Weizmann takes a very pessimistic view. According to his calculations there are about 17 million Jews in the world today. Of these, 10-11 million live in comparatively tolerable conditions: at any rate, they are not threatened with physical extermination. These are the Jews who live in the US, the British Empire and the USSR. Weizmann spoke about Soviet Jews in particular: 'I'm not worried about them. They are not under any threat. In twenty or thirty years' time, if the present regime in your country lasts, they will be assimilated.'
'What do you mean, assimilated?' I retorted. 'Surely you know that Jews in the USSR enjoy all the rights of a national minority, like the Armenians, Georgians, and Ukrainians and so on?'
'Of course I know that', Weizmann answered, 'but when I say "assimilated", all I mean is that Soviet Jews will gradually merge with the general current of Russian life, as an inalienable part of it. I may not like this, but I'm ready to accept it: at least Soviet Jews are on firm ground, and their fate does not make me shudder. But I cannot think without horror about the fate of the 6-7 million Jews who live in central or south-eastern Europe – in Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, the Balkans and especially Poland. What's going to happen to them? Where will they go?'
Weizmann sighed deeply and continued:
'If Germany wins the war they will all simply perish. However, I don't believe that the Germans will win. But even if England wins the war, what will happen then?'
Here he began to set out his fears. The English – and especially their colonial administrators – don't like Jews. This is particularly noticeable in Palestine, which is inhabited by both Jews and Arabs. Here the British 'high commissioners' undoubtedly prefer the Arabs to the Jews. Why? For one very simple reason. An English colonial administrator will usually get his training in British colonies like Nigeria, the Sudan, Rhodesia and so on. These places have a well-defined pattern of rule: a few roads, some courts, a little missionary activity, a little medical care for the population. It's all so simple, so straightforward, so calm. No serious problems, and no complaints on the part of the governed. The English administrator likes this, and gets used to it. But in Palestine?
Growing more animated, Weizmann continued:
'You won't get very far with a program like that here. Here there are big and complex problems. It's true that the Palestinian Arabs are the kind of guinea pigs the administrator is used to, but the Jews reduce him to despair. They are dissatisfied with everything, they ask questions, they demand answers – and sometimes these answers are not easily supplied. The administrator begins to get angry and to see the Jews as anuisance. But the main thing is that the administrator constantly feels that the Jew is looking at him and thinking to himself: "Are you intelligent? But maybe I'm twice as intelligent as you." This turns the administrator against the Jews for good, and he begins to praise the Arabs. Things are quite different with them: they don't want anything and don't bother anyone.'
And then, taking all these circumstances into account, Weizmann anxiously asks himself: 'What has a British victory to offer the Jews?' The question leads him to some uncomfortable conclusions. For the only 'plan' which Weizmann can think of to save central European Jewry (and in the first place Polish Jewry) is this: to move a million Arabs now living in Palestine to Iraq, and to settle four or five million Jews from Poland and other countries on the land which the Arabs had been occupying. The British are hardly likely to agree to this. And if they don't agree, what will happen?
I expressed some surprise about how Weizmann hoped to settle five million Jews on territory occupied by one million Arabs.
'Oh, don't worry', Weizmann burst out laughing. 'The Arab is often called the son of the desert. It would be truer to call him the father of the desert. His laziness and primitivism turn a flourishing garden into a desert. Give me the land occupied by a million Arabs, and I will easily settle five times that number of Jews on it.'
Weizmann shook his head sadly and concluded: 'The only thing is, how do we obtain this land?'

Did The Jews Lose Europe?
Following the surge of right wing parties in Europe's Parliamentary election, Forward, the once-progressive Jewish outlet asks, "Have the Jews Lost Europe?" The tone of this question implies that until just a few days ago, at least some Jews believed that Europe was, in part, a 'Jewish property.' Such views were not baseless; Jewish Lobbies have dominated British and French policies by means of aggressive lobbying (CFI, LFI, CRIF etc').
Following the European poll, Dave Rich, deputy director of the ultra Right Wing Jewish para-military Community Security Trust, is concerned. He detects a growing resentment of Jewish politics in Europe. His article in the Forward's openly examines whether Jews have lost their grip on the European continent. Rich begins by quoting Israeli veteran concentration camp guard Jeffrey Goldberg. "At what point," asks Goldberg, "do the Jews of America and the Jews of Israel tell the Jews of Europe that it might be time to get out?" Apparently, says Rich, "Goldberg is not the only one to have had this thought. In fact, according to a 2013 opinion poll …more than a quarter of Jews in the E.U. have considered emigrating at some point in the past five years, because in their own countries they do not feel safe as Jews."
Rich is also upset by growing European opposition toward Jewish blood rituals such as shchita slaughter and Jewish orthodox circumcision, a horrid unhygienic religious ceremony in which a Rabbi sucks the blood from an infant's wounded penis (Metzitzah B'Peh). Rich is worried that 'neo Nazis' within the European parliaments may scrutinize Jewish religious practices and culture.
Rich may be correct, this kind of barbaric tribal blood ritual should have been banned ages ago. For some reason, our 'Left' and 'Humanists' failed to examine these morbid practices while at the same time their enthusiasm for human rights led them to ban the veil.
Rich himself operates within a hard core right wing Jewish supremacist organisation that is committed to the security of one race that happens to be his own. One would expect racially driven Rich to bond with or at least respect European racists whom he dismisses as 'neo Nazis.' After all, Rich and his organisation advocate their own ethno centrism that is, at least categorically, no different than that of some of Europe's most radical far right groups.
Rich quotes British commentator Paul Mason who contends that, "The Euro project was supposed to make sure the continent could never again go fascist. If European legislatures are now crawling with fascists, what was the point of that?" Leaving aside Mason's apparent ignorance in matters to do with Fascism, Rich and Mason reveal that the political agenda involved in setting the 'European project' had aims beyond those expressed at its creation. In other words, those Europeans naïve enough to believe that the 'Euro project' was created to address their needs and wants can now learn from the Jewish press about the true agenda behind the creation of the EU.
However, Rich sees reason for optimism, "in several countries, the far right polled surprisingly poorly," he states. "This is especially the case for those countries hit hardest by Europe's economic problems of recent years; Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland and Cyprus." But Rich fails to mention that in these few impoverished countries the Jewish population is tiny and Jewish political lobbying is marginal. If this explains the failure of the far right in those countries, it is possible that the rise of right wing parties in other parts of Europe is partially a reaction to aggressive Jewish lobbying and intervention. This is certainly the case in Britain, France, Hungary and Greece.
In a desperate attempt to divert attention away from Jewish politics, Rich argues that "West European far-right parties… do want to cut immigration (or stop it altogether) and roll back the cultural and religious diversity that has become part of the E.U.'s guiding philosophy." Rich fails to mention that it was Jewish progressive groups and institutions that for decades have been at the forefront of the pro immigration campaign and the call for diversity. Rich also forgets to explain that this kind of Jewish support wasn't driven by humanist or universal concerns. The Jewish Left obviously believed that immigration and diversity were very good for the Jews.
Rich concludes by arguing that European Right Wing politics "are not driven primarily by anti-Jewish sentiment … And Europe's Jews do not need our American friends to remind us where that can lead." Rich is correct here, the surge in political awareness of the European underclass and impoverished middle class is not driven 'primarily' by anti Jewish feelings, however, increasingly, political commentators identify European malaise with Jewish and Zionist politics. The European new Left was badly beaten in last week polls due, in large part, to its Jerusalemite nature and affiliation. The new left in Europe is driven by kosher ideology, it is dominated by Jewish lobbies such as LFI (Britain) and CRIF (France) and if this is not enough, the entire progressive dissent discourse is closely identified with Jewish interests and is largely funded, directly and indirectly, by liberal Zionists such as George Soros and his Open Society Institutes.
Bearing all that in mind, the political shift in Europe carries a clear message to Jewish institutions. Now's the time for immediate and deep reflection.
A Century of Deceit: Iraq, the World Wars, Holocaust Mythology and Zionist Militarism
Some studies estimate that close to 1.5 million Iraqis have lost their lives as a result of the brutal American invasion and occupation of their country in 2003.[1] Millions more Iraqis have become refugees and orphans with no future prospects for prosperity, sanctity or stability. Most of the critical infrastructure of the country was bombed into rubble and dust. American depleted uranium weapons have caused cancer rates in some Iraqi cities to skyrocket, permanently destroying the genes of future generations of Iraqis who are being born with horrific birth defects and diseases.
The culprits responsible for this genocidal campaign to subdue and enslave the Iraqi people are not the CEOs of American oil companies as some disingenuous commentators on the Left have claimed. President George W. Bush's foreign policy in the Middle East was not his own nor that of the oil lobby, but was the brainchild of the neoconservative conspirators behind the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA), the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) and other Zionist-oriented think tanks that dominated the Washington Beltway.
Three of Bush's principal foreign policy advisors who are widely recognized as the prime movers behind the war in Iraq were neocon ideologues Richard Perle, Douglas Feith and Paul Wolfowitz, all of whom have well-documented histories of Israeli partisanship. Perle and Wolfowitz, for instance, were both investigated by the FBI in the 1980s for passing classified defence documents to Israel.[2] Perle was once an employee of the Israeli weapons firm Soltam.[3] Writers for the New York Times described Wolfowitz as one of Israel's "staunchest allies" in the Bush administration and revealed that Wolfowitz "is friendly with Israel's generals and diplomats" and that he is "something of a hero to the heavily Jewish neoconservative movement."[4][5] Feith once ran a law firm in Israel and received an award from the Zionist Organization of America for his "services to Israel and the Jewish people."[6] The New Yorker revealed that Feith even has a portrait of Zionism's founder Theodore Herzl hanging on the wall of his home library.[7] It was Feith and his neocon Zionist colleague Abram Shulsky who oversaw the secretive "Office of Special Plans" in the Pentagon where all of the lies about Iraq's "weapons of mass destruction" were conceived and disseminated.[8]
These Israeli militarists, masquerading as American thinkers, left behind a paper trail that unveiled their true objectives. In 1996, Richard Perle, Douglas Feith and David Wurmser — all future Bush administration officials — authored a strategy paper for Benjamin Netanyahu's Israeli Likud regime entitled "A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm."[9] In the paper, these Zionist hawks advocated an aggressive Israeli foreign policy, calling for the removal of all of Israel's possible military competitors in the region through force. They spoke of "weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria" and of removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq, calling it an "important Israeli strategic objective." Also on their hit list was Iran, whose influence in the region they hoped to neutralize as well. By eliminating Israel's external enemies the Zionist neocons were in turn endeavoring to subdue Israel's internal foes, the indigenous Arab Palestinians who continue to resist Israeli occupation and apartheid.[10]
Meyrav Wurmser, the wife of neocon David Wurmser, confessed that most of the leading neocons are pro-Israel Jews.[11] Gal Beckerman, a writer for the Jewish Forward newspaper, admitted that the ideology of neoconservatism itself was the brainchild of chauvinistic Jewish intellectuals such as Leo Strauss, Irving Kristol and Albert Wohlstetter. "If there is an intellectual movement in America to whose invention Jews can lay sole claim, neoconservatism is it," Beckerman wrote.[12] Prominent Israeli journalist Ari Shavit said the Iraq war was engineered by a cabal of 25 mostly Jewish neoconservative intellectuals.[13] Famed American-Jewish journalist Carl Bernstein expressed the same view on MSNBC. The Iraq war was launched on a phony pretext by Bush, Cheney and "the Jewish neocons who wanted to remake the world," Bernstein opined, much to the chagrin of the pro-Zionist host.[14]
The engine driving the Zionist-led neoconservative war machine is "holocaust" mythology. "For those of us who are involved in foreign and defense policy today of my generation," explained Richard Perle in a BBC interview, "the defining moment of our history was certainly the holocaust."[15] Douglas Feith often invokes the holocaust to justify his militarism. In a New Yorkerprofile, Feith asked, "What's the answer to the Holocaust?" He answered his own question by suggesting that it is not surprising that this alleged event has caused so many Jews to become militant neocons dedicated to aggressive, unyielding warfare against all those who pose a "threat" to Jews and their interests.[16] In a New York Times profile, Paul Wolfowitz spoke of the holocaust as having a profound impact on his worldview.[17] Another neocon ringleader, Michael Ledeen, revealed his obsession with the subject in an article he authored entitled "The New Holocaust."[18]Political analyst Kevin Barrett observed that the Israelis and their Jewish neocon patrons in Washington "are fanatical extremists who feel that they are being persecuted everywhere they go and that they have to be extremely harsh, unyielding and aggressive, as well as deceptive and violent with the world" in order to ensure their survival.[19] Somehow it doesn't dawn on them that maybe it is their unscrupulous behaviour that is the cause of hostility towards them in the first place. Obviously introspection is not exactly a Zionist virtue.
The Zionists' militarist mindset is evidently motivated by the ethnocentric myths of Jewish victimhood. World-conquering Neocon-Zionist belligerence is driven in large part by the religious adherence to the official propaganda of the victors of World War II. Elite Jews played an important role in bringing about the Second World War as the final phase of their plan to establish the state of Israel. The First World War accomplished several things for the Zionists: it freed up Palestine from Ottoman control (the Ottomans previously rejected Zionist offers to purchase Palestine), it fractured the big empires of Europe who could then be manipulated into future conflicts, and lastly it delivered Russia to the Bolsheviks, a majority of whom were Jewish chauvinists hell-bent on the subjugation of that Christian Empire. With Russia now in the hands of Jewish communist extremists and Palestine falling under British dominion, the Zionist plan for Israel was well on its way.
"It has been repeatedly acknowledged by British Statesmen," wrote Zionist leader Chaim Weizmann in a 1941 letter to British leader Winston Churchill, "that it was the Jews who, in the last [world] war, effectively helped to tip the scales in America in favour of Great Britain. They are keen to do it – and may do it – again." Wiezmann went on to ask for British assistance in the formation of a "Jewish fighting force" that would be used to ethnically cleanse Palestine of its Arab population. Wiezmann promised Churchill that if the British would help create a Jewish militia to conquer Palestine, he would do his utmost to mobilize American Jewry to exert their influence to draw America into the Second World War on Britain's side, as they did in the first great war.[20]
Benjamin Freedman, a former top-level Zionist, exposed the machinations of his brethren relating to the First and Second World Wars and the Zionist conquest of Palestine. In a 1961 speech at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C., Freedman explained that the United States was "suckered into the [first world] war merely so that the Zionists of the world could obtain Palestine." Freedman described how Zionist Jews made a secretive deal with the British leadership during World War I promising to bring America into the war in exchange for Palestine. The result of this agreement was the "Balfour Declaration" of 1917, a British government decree that promised to make Palestine into a national homeland for the Jews.[21] Freedman stressed the absurdity that Britain "should offer [Palestine] as coin of the realm to pay the Zionists for bringing the United States into the war." The Zionists, said Freedman, "have complete control of our government. … The Zionists and their co-religionists rule this United States as though they were the absolute monarchs of this country."[22]
In a December 1919 speech in Jerusalem, Chaim Wiezmann boasted about securing the Balfour Declaration from the British government through "persistent propaganda, through unceasing demonstration of the life force of our people." "We told the responsible authorities: We will establish ourselves in Palestine whether you like it or not," Weizmann said. "You can hasten our arrival or you can equally retard it. It is however better for you to help us so as to avoid our constructive powers being turned into a destructive power which will overthrow the world."[23] Threatening the world into approving the creation of Israel was part and parcel of the Zionist project from its inception.
In 1903 an early Zionist leader named Max Nordau conspicuously predicted the outbreak of the First World War, which lends credence to the suggestion that a hidden force of Jewish Zionists, Freemasons and bankers are responsible for instigating the conflict for their own purposes. "Let me tell you the following words as if I were showing you the rungs of a ladder leading upward and upward: Herzl, the Zionist Congress, the English Uganda proposition, the future world war, the peace conference – where with the help of England a free and Jewish Palestine will be created," Nordau told his compatriots at the sixth Zionist Congress in Basel, Switzerland, 11 years before the outbreak of the First World War and 14 years before the British issued the "Balfour Declaration."[24]
Such predictive powers unveil a plan that was consciously followed and executed during and after World War I. The "peace conference" Nordau envisioned was the 1919 Paris Peace Conference, which resulted in the Treaty of Versailles, a farce that unjustly punished Germany for a war it did not start, thus laying the groundwork for the inevitable outbreak of the Second World War. An international peacekeeping body was established shortly after World War I known as the League of Nations. The League put its stamp of approval on the British seizure of Palestine after the war, an imperial land-grab that had no real legitimacy outside of the self-serving declarations of the political elites, bankers and oligarchs who chaired the League.
The League essentially functioned as a tool of the financial elite and served the geopolitical aspirations of the Zionists. "The League of Nations is a Jewish idea, and Jerusalem some day will become the capital of the world's peace," proclaimed Jewish leader Nahum Sokolow at a Zionist conference in Carlsbad, California, in 1922. "The League has recognized our rights to our ancient home," he said. "We Jews throughout the world will make the League's struggle our own and will not rest until there is ultimate victory."[25]
Even with Palestine now in the palm of their hands, the Zionists still had a problem: convincing Europe's Jews to leave their lives of luxury and embrace Palestine as their new home. Such a task proved difficult, with only a minority of European Jews strongly identifying with Zionism at this time. This reality sheds a different light on the rise of Adolf Hitler and National Socialism in Germany, which proved very convenient from the Zionists' perspective. While publicly professing scorn and hatred of Nazism, Zionist Jews secretly initiated a deal with Hitler's government – the "Transfer Agreement" – which saw the transfer of tens of thousands of German Jews and their assets to Palestine. Lasting from 1933 through 1941, the Nazi-Zionist pact proved crucial to the future establishment of the Zionist state. The large amounts of capital and agricultural equipment that was shipped into Palestine by way of this agreement substantially contributed to the creation of Israel. "Through this pact, Hitler's Third Reich did more than any other government during the 1930s to support Jewish development in Palestine," opined historian Mark Weber in his article titled "Zionism and the Third Reich." "[D]uring the 1930s no nation did more to substantively further Jewish-Zionist goals than Hitler's Germany," says Weber.[26]
Still, the Transfer Agreement alone did not produce the amount of Jewish emigration necessary to form an exclusivist Jewish ethno-state in Palestine, as the Zionists intended all along. There simply were not enough Jews in Palestine that would be required to replace the expelled Arabs and keep them at bay. Not only that, but there was still not enough global support or sympathy for the creation of a state for Jews. Since the dawn of Zionism in the late 1800s, Jewish-Zionist ideologues had been ravenously promoting the story of "six million" persecuted and oppressed Jews. "We Jews need a homeland of our own because we are persecuted wherever we go" was the traditional Zionist argumentation. But the First World War did not produce the circumstances needed to foist this propaganda on the world. Jews were not singled out for persecution or mistreatment by any belligerent in that war, which is why the Zionists, following the dictates of their founder Theodore Herzl, deliberately aided and abetted Hitler's forces to corral their fellow Jews into ghettos and concentration camps during the Second World War.
Herzl, in his diaries, advocated making use of "anti-Semitism" to spur Jewish emigration to Palestine. "It would be an excellent idea to call in respectable, accredited anti-Semites as liquidators of [Jewish] property," he wrote. "The anti-Semites will become our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies. … I have already told you that we want to let respectable anti-Semites participate in our project, respecting their independence which is valuable to us—as a sort of people's control authority."[27] Did Hitler not carry out Herzl's exact mandate? It must be pointed out that Hitler's "final solution of the Jewish question" was the same procedure outlined by Zionists decades earlier: sequestering all Jews into a single state, isolated from other nations. "The final solution of the Jewish question lies therefore in the establishment of the Jewish State," said the 1897 manifesto of a German-Zionist group.[28] In an 1899 letter, Theodore Herzl asked the Russian Czar if he would hear out his "Zionist plan for the final solution of the Jewish Question."[29] In 1936, the Jewish nationalist leader Vladimir Jabotinsky laid out what the Zionist plan would ultimately entail: "It is not our task to establish in Palestine a home for selected people, not even a state for a small portion of our people. The aim of our efforts is to organize a systematic massive Jewish evacuation from all the countries in which they live."[30]
"The transfer of millions of Jews to their homeland [Palestine] will save the European Jewry from extermination," declared Jabotinsky in 1940, adding, "Evacuation of the Jewish masses is the only cure for the Jewish catastrophe."[31] The "extermination" Jabotinsky spoke of was not happening, but that didn't stop Zionist propagandists from disseminating reckless atrocity stories of systematic genocide in order to win the world over to the Zionist cause. Legends of human soap, skin lampshades, shrunken heads, electric shock chambers, gas chambers and other absurdities were trumpeted from the rooftops by Zionists and their controlled press.
Jewish leaders made numerous public pronouncements designed to provoke Hitler, hoping he would unleash his fury upon Europe's Jews, and with the help of Organized Zionism spur them to make their way to Palestine. For instance, Organized Jewry made a declaration of war against Germany in March 1933, before Hitler took any serious measures restricting the rights of German Jews. "Judea Declares War on Germany: Jews of All the World Unite in Action," read the headline of the March 24, 1933, edition of Britain's Daily Express. The corresponding article declared a Jewish "holy war against Germany." "The Israeli people around the world," the article continued, "declare economic and financial war against Germany. Fourteen million Jews stand together as one man, to declare war against Germany."[32] A year later Jabotinsky made a similarly bellicose pronouncement, stating:
"For months now the struggle against Germany is waged by each Jewish community, at each conference, in all our syndicates, and by each Jew all over the world. There is reason to believe that our part in this struggle has general value. We will trigger a spiritual and material war of all the world against Germany's ambitions to become once again a great nation, to recover lost territories and colonies. But our Jewish interests demand the complete destruction of Germany."[33]
As the war drew near, Chaim Weizmann did everything in his power to invite definite reprisals against Jews from Hitler's regime. In a 1939 letter to British leader Neville Chamberlain, Weizmann declared that "the Jews stand by Great Britain and will fight on the side of the democracies."[34]Weizmann and his Zionist colleagues made many public statements to that effect, which Hitler referenced in a July 1942 speech.[35] In 1941, an American Jew named Theodore Kaufman made an even more brazen effort to deliberately provoke hostility towards Jews. He authored and published a book advocating the genocide of the whole German people by way of a forced sterilization program. Kaufman's text, titled Germany Must Perish!, outlined "a comprehensive plan for the extinction of the German nation and the total eradication from the earth, of all her people."[36] A map illustrating the possible territorial break-up of Germany and the "apportionment of her lands" was also found in the book. "Germany must perish forever from this earth!" Kaufman declared, calling for "a final solution" of German extinction. Hitler's propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels was well aware of Kaufman's hateful screed, and widely distributed it in Germany to bolster his case of a Jewish conspiracy against his country.
Zionist leaders and activists gave Hitler more than enough ammunition to justify interning Jews in camps as a security threat to Germany. The American and Canadian governments imprisoned Japanese, German and Italian citizens in camps during the war with a far weaker rationale. Japanese, German and Italian citizens of the US and Canada had not declared a "holy war" against their adopted countries, but were interned nonetheless. It is difficult to escape the conclusion that these Zionist provocations were a cleverly calculated ruse intended to create an atmosphere in Europe conducive to the Zionist transfer plan. Without the uprooting process initiated by the National Socialists and their Zionist assistants, it is unlikely that any large amount of European Jews would have voluntarily left Europe for an uncertain future in Palestine.
Some Jewish casualties in a devastating war that took tens of millions of lives was inevitable and very much desired by the Zionist leaders seeking a pretext to invade and conquer Palestine for Jewish colonization. "There are 6,000,000 living, bleeding, suffering arguments in favor of Zionism," declared Rabbi Stephen S. Wise at a meeting of Zionists in New York in 1900.[37] In 1906, a German-Jewish philanthropist named Dr. Paul Nathan publicized the notion that the Russian government had initiated a policy of exterminating its Jews as a "solution" to the "Jewish question" and that six million were in grave danger.[38] Max Nordau, the Zionist leader who predicted World War I, invoked the story of six million persecuted Jews in 1899, 1911 and 1920.[39] At a Zionist conference in 1911, Nordau warned that it was only a matter of time before six million Jews would be "annihilated" by European governments.[40]
This familiar narrative was repeatedly advanced a few dozen times before, during and after World War I.[41] A most interesting example is from October 1919 when the American Hebrew publication carried an alarmist story headlined "The Crucifixion of Jews Must Stop" which alleged that "six million Jewish men and women" were on the brink of a "holocaust of human life."[42] A New York Times report from the same year headlined "Ukrainian Jews Aim To Stop Pogroms" alleged that six million Jews in the Ukraine and Poland were being targeted in pogroms and massacres.[43]Another report from 1921 titled "Begs America Save 6,000,000 In Russia," also from the New York Times, said, "Russia's 6,000,000 Jews are facing extermination by massacre."[44]
As the Second World War approached, Zionists amplified their atrocity propaganda. In 1936, Chaim Weizmann told a British Commission that "six million Jews" in Europe had "neither hope nor future save in the land of Israel."[45] In 1940, World Jewish Congress chairman Nahum Goldmann proclaimed that if the German National Socialists achieved victory in the war "6,000,000 Jews in Europe are doomed to destruction."[46] Amazingly, Zionist newspapers betrayed the pre-meditated and fraudulent nature of the six million myth by proclaiming precisely six million Jewish victims six months before the end of the war.[47] Soviet-Jewish war propagandist Ilya Ehrenburg told his readers that "the world now knows that Germany has killed six million Jews" in March of 1945, two months before the end of hostilities and long before any accurate statistical data of war casualties would become available.[48] "At that time, no demographic figures could have been available to [Ehrenburg]," writes German Rudolf in the preface of The First Holocaust. "Just a year later," Rudolf continues, "British Historian David Irving emphasized that as early as June 1945, in other words immediately after the end of hostilities in Europe, some Zionist leaders claimed to be able to provide the precise number of Jewish victims – six million, of course – even though the chaos reigning in Europe at that time rendered any demographic studies impossible."[49]
In an effort to whitewash their own egregious war crimes, the Allied Powers went along with the Zionists' pre-meditated fictional account of six million dead Jews. At the post-war Nuremberg trials, an Allied-run kangaroo court staffed to the brim by Zionist Jews and their Allied lackeys, the truth was buried underneath a tidal wave of falsehoods. The Zionist motives for the war itself were purposefully obscured and a cartoonish propaganda narrative of "Nazi evil" was foisted upon the world to advance the victors' post-war aims for Europe and accelerate the Zionists' ambitions for a Jewish ethno-state in Palestine. American Senator Thomas Dodd, who was a chief prosecutor at the Nuremberg trials in 1945, revealed in a letter to his wife that the staff at Nuremberg was about 75 per cent Jewish. "Now my point is that the Jews should stay away from this trial — for their own sake," Dodd wrote in the letter, adding, "For … the charge 'a war for the Jews' is still being made and in the post-war years it will be made again and again. The too large percentage of Jewish men and women here [at Nuremberg] will be cited as proof of this charge."[50]
When the Soviet Union and its communist satellites in Eastern Europe collapsed in 1991, so did the myth of the six million. The Soviet lie of four million deaths at Auschwitz – a monstrous exaggeration accepted as 'fact' for decades — was officially reduced to around one million, but revisionist historians doubt even that figure. Revisionist scholarship has determined that somewhere between 100-150 thousand people perished in Auschwitz mainly as a result of disease and starvation, which was not a deliberate act on the part of the Germans but rather the outcome of Allied carpet-bombing of Germany's infrastructure.[51] For years Zionist propagandists claimed several million Jews had been killed by the Germans at the Mauthausen and Majdanek concentration camps, but recent official revisions place the Jewish death totals there at 74,000 combined.[52] Despite the vast lowering of the death figures at many major camps, Zionists and those they have convinced through incessant propaganda still repeat the erroneous six million number as fact.
Jewish scholar Norman Finkelstein outlined Zionist deceptions vis-à-vis the orthodox holocaust narrative in his book The Holocaust Industry.[53] Finkelstein observes that a dogma has been fashioned around the "holocaust" by the Jewish-Zionist establishment as a means of thought control. Shielding Israel from criticism and rebuke, Finkelstein argues, is a primary motivation behind the ceaseless promotion of holocaust mythology, in addition to Zionist shakedowns for reparations money from Germany. This profitable industry is bolstered by the Hollywood entertainment establishment which is "totally run by Jews" according to the Jewish Los Angeles Times columnist Joel Stein.[54] Not only does the holocaust dogma provide Zionist Jews with psychological cover to commit heinous crimes against the Palestinians and mask them under a façade of victimhood, but it also acts as a perpetual pretext for wars that serve Israel's interests, such as the war in Iraq.
Gilad Sharon, the son of Israeli war criminal politician Ariel Sharon, vividly unveiled the bloodthirsty and bellicose nature of Zionism in a 2012 op-ed for the Jerusalem Post. Calling openly for the genocidal carpet-bombing of Gaza, Sharon declared: "We need to flatten entire neighborhoods in Gaza. Flatten all of Gaza. The Americans didn't stop with Hiroshima – the Japanese weren't surrendering fast enough, so they hit Nagasaki, too."[55] Sharon's remarks are not the ravings of a fringe lunatic — they are completely consistent with the teachings of the pioneers of Zionist ideology, like Dr. David Wolffsohn, the late World Zionist Organization chairman, who told a meeting of Zionists in 1907 that Jews must put aside their differences and unite to "conquer the world."[56]Vladimir Jabotinsky, the father of the Revisionist strain of Zionism, said candidly, "We want a Jewish Empire."[57] Zionism is a "death-crazed narcissistic cult," said Rich Siegel, a former Zionist who saw the light.[58] The inhuman precepts of the Jewish supremacist mentality that is so prevalent in Israel today can only result in more violence and bloodshed, more misery and suffering for the Palestinians and Arabs in general.
While the West bears much shame and responsibility for aiding and abetting the Zionist project and all of its murderous and destructive consequences, bringing history into accordance with the facts is one way to uplift the Palestinians whose struggle for freedom and justice goes on.

B&O Beoplay A1, Sony MDR 1000X, Sennheiser PXC 550 and more: Here is our pick of the Bluetooth speakers and headsets.
Bluetooth headphones and speakers have been staring us in the face for a few years now. But 2016 was pretty much the year they became a standard, thanks to affordable pricing and the lack of availability of more traditional audio systems. This year also saw a large number of global bands make a beeline for the Indian market, thus giving the buyers here a much wider array of devices to choose from.
Here is my pick of the Bluetooth speakers and headsets.Read more ↓
B&O Beoplay A1
If there was one audio device that left me awed this year, it was this little discuss-shaped Bluetooth speaker from B&O. It is very near audio perfection, especially given its size and the depth is it able to offer. If you can afford it, look no further.
LG X Boom OM7550D Home Audio System
This is not exactly a standalone Bluetooth speaker, it is a replacement for whatever audio system you used to have at home. It is really versatile and can cater to all your needs, even a few outlandish ones like disco lights when you party.
Sennheiser PXC 550
It is tough to take on Bose in the noise cancelling headphones space. However, Sennheiser has offered a good challenger in the form of the PXC 550. This Bluetooth headphone offers more features than the Bose rivals at the moment with top-notch audio quality.
Sony MDR 1000X
Bose had competition from Sony too in the form MDR 1000x which added more value for the user by offering hi-fi audio despite being wireless. It also gave easy access to controls with a touch sensitive ear cup with swipe action.
Special mention
Amkette S-50
This is not a top of the line device like the ones listed above, but the S-50 offers quite a lot at its very affordable price point.
While it gave you the choice to stream from a phone, play from an SD card or just listen to radio, if also offered a timepiece and phone charge by your bedside. Talk about value for money.

Web news : Mervin Manufacturing Uses New Shopatron Integration Capabilities to Create a Better Customer Experience
lib-tech.com, utilizing Shopatron's newest integration capabilities (APIs). The new APIs seamlessly integrate the powerful Shopatron eCommerce solution directly into Mervin's brand websites, making for a simpler and better experience for their customers.
Although Shopatron has supplied order management and eCommerce capabilities for the Mervin brand websites since 2010, until the new sites were launched, Mervin maintained both a marketing website and a separate online store for each brand.
"While our branded online stores have served their function — they sold our products — they were not the optimal solution for customers," said Brian Behrens, Developer at Mervin Manufacturing. "Customers needed to click from our brand website to our online store in order to buy a product, and some customers abandoned that process.
Now, with our single all-inclusive website for each brand, shoppers can add a product to their cart and go into checkout with two simple clicks, which will raise our sales conversion rates."
Shopatron's newest integration capabilities give Mervin's web developers the ability to easily utilize Shopatron's shopping cart features directly on a brand website, enabling implementation with little or no technical support.
"The new Shopatron Add to Cart API was exactly what we were looking for," continued Behrens. "It was simple to implement. Just add a few lines of code, and you are selling directly on your current website while keeping full control over the brand experience."
"With new Shopatron APIs, any brand can turn their marketing website into an online store, allowing them to create a better shopping experience for consumers and sell more," said Sean Collier, Chief Customer Advocate at Shopatron. "Sounds like a win-win to me."

Cellcom recently released an advertisement which generated public debate over its controversial political message.
The advertisement begins with a group of bored IDF soldiers patrolling the security fence until a soccerball lands on their tank. One of the good-looking soldiers makes a phone call on his Cellcom device asking friends to join him and his buddies for a "good time." The camera pans out to reveal the soldiers playing soccer over the barrier which conceals the Palestinian opponent. At the end, a voiceover delivers the punch-line: "After all, what are we all after? Just a little fun."
Watch the full advertisement in Hebrew below:
Not everybody took the political implications lightly. "The ad was criticized by Israeli bloggers for its insensitivity to the Palestinian predicament," reported Haaretz. The newspaper also informed that Knessed member, Ahmed Tibi, "has joined the chorus of voices calling for cellphone company Cellcom to pull its latest commercial." (for full article) Cellcom rebutted the claims by saying that they are a communication company that does not meddle in politics and reiterated the message of their campaign: when people of diverse backgrounds want to communicate they can do so under any circumstance.
I think the ad is daring and, more notably, pragmatic in its depiction of the security fence. In its irreverence, the ad lays out a reality which is swept under the rug: the fence is, both figuratively and literally, an obstruction to communication with Palestinians. Yet the 'reality' depicted in the ad is misleading. The soldiers 'overcome' this barrier, an overly rosy message about society's strengths that ignores Palestinian difficulties and an increasingly grim situation. Then again, Cellcom can't expect to boost its sales with the message that people can't communicate in trying situations. I only wish that when IDF soldiers cheer at the end, we would see excited faces on the other side of the fence.

Guest essay by Eric Worrall
Greens are inventing elaborate fantasies of shadowy right wing conspiracies to explain President Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Treaty – but still refuse to consider the possibility they are wrong about global warming.
Trump's Paris exit: climate science denial industry has just had its greatest victory
Graham Readfearn
Trump's confirmed withdrawal from the United Nation's Paris climate deal shows it's time to get to grips with the climate science denial industry.
Moments before the US president, Donald Trump, strode into the Rose Garden, TV cameras pictured his chief strategist, Steve Bannon, shaking hands and looking generally pleased with himself.
Bannon once called global warming a "manufactured crisis".
Bannon, with Trump's head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Scott Pruitt, were among the loudest and most forceful voices in Trump's ear, imploring the president to pull out of the Paris climate change agreement.

Save Time and Never Run Out Of Ink Again With HP Instant Ink
Making our home smarter has been a huge goal of ours this year. We need everything in our home to be working for us. This means using technology to make our life easier and better. This is a sponsored post discussion with HP about the awesome new HP Instant Ink Service.
We have been traveling a lot this year and that means a lot of picture printing.
The girls have all been hanging their favorite memories on their photo boards in their rooms and we have been printing those picture memories like crazy. We even invested in another color printer for all this picture printing. We chose an HP Envy 4500 because you can print directly from your smartphone or tablet and it also comes with the HP Instant service. I also chose this printer because it looks good. We are in the middle of an update to our home and I'm being very selective about what I want on my counters, including our command center.
I am pretty excited about HP Instant Ink.
Since we switched our focus when buying products to make sure they are "smart" and make life easier I knew that a printer that could order it's own ink was exactly what we needed. Sounds revolutionary right? I thought so, but it's actually here and available now!
Here is how it works.
First thing you need to do is purchase an HP Printer that is compatible with this new service. They have a lot of options and some pretty fancy, awesome printers or some more basic models at multiple price points to fit your needs. After you get the printer home and set up you sign up for the service and then once your ink gets low your printer automatically {via an internet connection} orders more for you and has it delivered straight to you.
The ink is also up to 50% off so this saves you time and money! It's that easy!
Do you do a lot of printing in your home too?

This sounds so awesome, to never run out of ink sounds like a blessing!
This is a product that I need I literally run out of ink all of the time. I have actually gone through 3 printers this year with all of my print jobs.
Now this is cool. We don't always used the printer but it always ran out of ink in the worst possible time whenever we needed it. >.<
ok, that is awesome! great service!
I love HP products. I have a new(er) printer from HP too, but I love the instant ink concept! Nothing makes me more mad than running out of ink especially when I'm working on a big project. Ain't nobody got time for that!
I love HP products! They have the best service and I love this new HP Instant Ink!
This sounds like the perfect printer for my house. With two teenagers we are always printing things for school. I would love to not have to worry about remembering to buy ink.
This is the type of printer *I* need. I've been meaning to do a gallery wall in our house.
What an awesome idea. Ink catridges cost so much for the printers that this would be a relief.
That is pretty nifty. I'm glad it's here and not just revolutionary. It STINKS to run out of ink.
Great post and great product. We are always using a printer so this would be great.
This sounds like an amazing offer indeed. I am in the market for a new printer and will have to take this into consideration. Thanks for sharing.
I absolutely LOVE the HP Instant Ink program! It helps me save so much money.
I always run out of ink at the most inopportune times. This would be a great way to save time and money in 2015.
Ooh…how totally cool? My husband and I have been trying to do more stuff like this, just wasn't too sure on the products available. Now I know 🙂
This will be included on my wishlist! With 4 kids, we really need this one./

You love Lake Champlain and the special lands along the shore. You want to make sure that the land and the lake continue to be conserved and maintained for future generations. You can make that happen through a planned gift.
The term "planned giving" means preparing a future gift to the Land Trust. This type of gift requires planning in the present to make sure that your legacy is prepared according to your wishes. A planned gift helps ensure the future of the Land Trust's work, while providing you with tax benefits or additional income.
The Lake Champlain Land Trust can work with you to develop a planned gift that works to meet your goals. This may include:
- a bequest in your will
- a gift of a qualified pension plan (IRA, 401k, 403b)
- a gift through life insurance
- a gift with life payments/dividends
- a gift of charitable gift annuities
- a gift through charitable remainder trusts
With a planned gift, you will become a part of the Land Trust's Archer Family Legacy Society. You don't have to be wealthy to leave a conservation legacy or to receive the benefits of a planned gift.
If you are ready to explore your options, or if you have questions about planned gifts, please call Chris Boget, Executive Director at (802) 862-4150 x 1 or email him at email@example.com. We'd love to help you meet your goals.

No workout today 19 June 2012
Severe ibuprofen reaction like a bad case of stomach flu. At higher dosages Ibup needs to be taken with an antacid "chaser" but I'd eliminated that since the antibiotic for my rash said no antacid. Whoopee.
OK, back pain recedes psychologically as stomach pain kicks in, and no workout, of course. But I have the sun and RTHK for classical music.

The Mercedes-Benz R129 models were produced from 1989 - 2001 and
were sold under the SL-Class model name before being replaced by
the R230 in 2001. The R129 was based on the shortened floorpan of
the Mercedes-Benz W124 saloon and featured many innovative details
for the time. The fifth generation of the legendary SL series of
two door convertible sports cars featured a fully retractable
hardtop that was marketed as the Vario Roof; a first for the SL
class, although it had been available on the smaller SLK model
since 1997. The flagship models were built by AMG in the form of
the SL55 (a highly tuned version of the SL500) with each engine
individually hand assembled and signed by the technician.
Presented in brilliant metallic silver paintwork with an
exclusive graphite leather interior, this AMG-powered SL 55 has
undoubtedly been cared for throughout its life. The folding
panoramic roof benefits from a Designo Anthracite alcantara lining
and the alloy wheels are the non-standard, factory 18 multi-spoke
items. Other factory specifications include Parktronic parking
system, a command and control display system, heated and ventilated
comfort seating, a heated windscreen washer system and push-start
button. These luxurious sporting tourers are noticeably increasing
in value and good examples are certainly worth investing in.

WEB Notes: If you follow the source of this article information is provided where you can call, fax or tweet your position on this issue. It is our opinion that everyone has the right to self choice. If you remove my right to decide for myself, you remove from freedom and that is something no one should be in favor of. And for all of you who love to laugh at California because of their laws just remember California is always first. Next will be your state. How quickly can we forget that we now have homosexual marriage legalized by the Federal government. Californians voted it down. How quickly we forget this nations borders have been torn down? We all need to stick together and not divide ourselves.

Health Impact News Editor Comments
In a brazen act of medical tyranny, California recently became the first state in the U.S. where lawmakers removed religious exemptions to those opposing vaccines for their children. The bill now signed into law, SB277, faces legal hurdles in court next.
Now, legislators in California want to pass the "first US adult vaccine mandate with NO personal exemptions and CRIMINAL penalties for failure to comply." SB 792, would eliminate an adult's right to exempt themselves from one, some, or all vaccines, a risk-laden medical procedure. – Read More – From The Trenches

I'm not feeling the look one bit. Such a gorgeous lady and that bag has got to be one of the ugliest versions of a Fendi Baguette. There are so many brilliant clutches to choose from. The knot a simple choice or the Olympia Le-Tan book clutches for a risk. And agreed, that heavy jewellery should not have been paired with that dress.ReplyDelete

It's easy to look at the North American automotive market now and proclaim it to be truly the golden years. Enthusiasts in particular are blessed with higher performing machinery than they have ever seen. And it's not just the exotics that are defying physics and stretching the imagination of what can be achieved on four wheels – even family sedans are delivering performance numbers that would have made supercars blush only two decades ago.
But there is one element of motoring enthusiasm that continues to wilt and die its agonizingly slow death: the manual transmission.
To many, the continual decline in sales numbers of cars equipped with manual transmissions is cause for widespread mourning. For many gearheads, those three pedals and the ability to move a shifter through a series of gates in that traditional H-pattern are paramount to driving enjoyment and overall control of the machine.
It is easy to understand why we're facing this decline in stick shifts. At one point, cars equipped with manual transmissions were able to help motorists eke out more performance, particularly from small displacement engines, and generally provided superior fuel efficiency and of course greater engagement between car and driver.
Not so much anymore though. Today, high-end manufacturers like Ferrari and Porsche have embraced the performance benefits of enabling a computer to operate the cog swaps in dual-clutch automated transmissions (no new Ferrari models are available with a manual). Not surprisingly, robots never miss a gear and will shift much quicker than even the most talented human can.
What's more, the efficiency of CVT transmissions and contemporary automatics steal away one of the best arguments in favour manual transmissions from days gone by. The brilliantly optimized eight-speed ZF automatic available in most new BMWs is more efficient, quicker, and thanks to paddle shifting and sporty little rev-match downshifts, almost as fun to drive as their manual transmission counterparts.
So does this mean the manual transmission has become pointless and redundant? For approximately 90 percent of the car-buying public that motor around without three pedals in their cars, drinking their Starbucks and texting away, yes it has. But for the rest of us, there are a number of reasons driving a stick shift is still relevant.
First off, there's that enjoyment factor. For those who haven't experienced shifting their own gears, conquering smooth operation of a car with a manual transmission is a rewarding experience in the way mastering any sort of skilled activity or art form is.
But there's more. When travelling overseas, particularly to Asia and Europe, driving cars with stick shifts is still much more common practice than it is here. For world travellers, this is a skill that can be a necessity for safe operation of a rental car.
Having a car with a manual transmission can have additional perks too. For one, with such a limited portion of the population being able to actually drive a stick shift, cars equipped as such are less likely to be stolen. Plus as a used car value, there could be better deals due to the limited market of stick shift drivers.

For most of us, fear is something we try to avoid. And fearing God hardly sounds like an occasion for joy. But Jerry Bridges shows how the fear of the Lord is actually the key that opens the door to a life of true knowledge, wisdom, blessing, and joy. We all want a deeper, more intimate relationship with God - one that's characterized by joy. But how does fearing God lead to joy? After all, aren't we supposed to love him and live in intimate relationship with him?
Regular price: $10.49
It all happened in a moment - a most remarkable moment. God came near. He came not as a flash of light or as an unapproachable conqueror, but as one whose first cries were heard by a peasant girl and a sleepy carpenter. The hands that held him were not manicured, but callused and dirty. No silk. No ivory. No hype. No party. No hoopla. God had come near...for you.

Nickel 'nanodots' could mean tiny hard drives
New Scientist, 14:54 07 September 04, Will Knight
Journal reference: Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (doi:10.1166/jnn.2004.107)
Nanoscopic dots of nickel that could be used to store terabytes of data in a computer chip just a few centimetres wide have been created by US researchers.
Each "nanodot" consists of a discrete ball of several hundred nickel atoms and can have one of two magnetic states. This allows them hold a single bit of information, as a "1" or a "0".
In a conventional computer hard drive, information is stored on a disk coated with a magnetic material, and bits must be far enough apart not to interfere with each other. Nanodots should allow bits to be packed closer together as the dots are discrete units that are not structurally linked. …
The researchers used a pulsed laser to heat nickel until it turned into plasma – an amorphous form of matter with positively and negatively charged atoms. In this form, the nickel rearranged itself on two different substrates – aluminium oxide and tin titanium nitrate – as uniform dots.
The dots arranged themselves at a density that would, theoretically, allow about five terabytes of data – five thousand gigabytes – to be packed into computer drive roughly the size of postage stamp. …
The fabrication technique could perhaps be used in other ways. It was also possible to arrange the dots in three dimensions within a substrate. The pair found the nanodots could be arranged in a uniform manner within the crystalline structure of tin titanium nitrate. In theory, this could strengthen the crystal lattice of a molecule, perhaps leading to the development of novel, super-strong materials, Narayan says.

Join the community, contribute to the conversation, and share your thoughts and photos on the Michaela's Garden Facebook Page!
After the tragic July 2007 home invasion and fire in Cheshire, CT, that took the lives of JENNIFER HAWKE-PETIT and her daughters, HAYLEY and MICHAELA, family members visited the home site to see if anything of value could be salvaged. Little was left.
One exception was the many flowers and foliage plants that Bill and MICHAELA had planted and maintained over the years. One flower in particular was dear to MICHAELA—her Four O'Clocks. Because of that, the Four O'Clocks were dug up, brought to Plainville, CT and replanted.
Michaela's Garden Project is designed to encourage area families and youth to become more involved in community service.
For the past three summers Michaela's Four O'Clocks have been re-planted from harvested seeds. As a result, enough seeds have been collected to begin the Michaela's Garden Project. The summer of 2010 was our first mass propagation effort. With the help of volunteer gardening enthusiasts, Cub Scout Pack 49 of Plainville, Cub Scout Pack 30 of Bristol and other area youth groups, we produced about 5,000 plants—all from Michaela's original garden. The seeds from these plants were harvested, packed and are being sold in specially designed packs of 25 seeds as a fundraiser for the PETIT FAMILY FOUNDATION.

Vita Cognito Est
Knowledge is Life – Life is Knowledge
One of the oldest "original" orgs in Star Citizen history, Tabula Stellarum was created by Pooka (paperfox) and Signo Vir (Signo) at the end of October 2012 and the website was launched in the first days of November the same year.
After an initial explosive growth, our guiding principal of neutrality began to face challenges from within. With so few orgs to choose from many players just went with whichever most closely matched their goals; for some that was exploration, for others neutrality, and some few were attracted solely to the size of our rapidly growing org. Tabula Stellarum, however, was never about size.
Exploration and neutrality are the concepts which bind us together and so a charter was created – some basic guiding principles that spelled out exactly what we are about. With our goals and intentions laid out, we fell mostly silent and stopped recruiting to wait for a chance to fly together and explore together. Some of our members left seeking orgs with views and policies more suited to their play styles. Some moved to other games and other communities. Most just wait silently…
Tabula Stellarum continues to slowly grow through word of mouth. Our open recruitment policy means that anyone who signs to our charter is welcome into the fold. The future of the guild is bright, the horizon tempting, the trade opportunities lucrative.
See you in the 'verse!
Bound together by a love of Exploration and Discovery, Tabula Stellarum members work together to expand knowledge of the universe from the opening of new jump points and systems, to the discovery of ore and lost relics.
Tabula Stellarum holds Neutrality as a core guiding value. Only through neutrality do we maintain access to explore and trade in all corners of space.
All members are free to pursue all career paths insofar as they do not interfere with Neutrality. Though a guild of explorers, all members may pursue trading, mining, smuggling, search and rescue, refueling and more. We work as a team but largely without orders. Members can join group events or pursue independent activities as they wish.
Equality is achieved through a flat organization. Aside from administrative tasks like recruitment and maintenance, all members should consider themselves of equal rank. All members are welcome to propose group activities but no one has authority to compel participation.
Tabula Stellarum refers to itself as a guild, and does so using the traditional meaning of the word: an organization of individuals sharing the same interests, formed for the mutual aid, protection, and advancement of those interests. With that meaning in mind, we have drafted a formal charter to express our raison d'être.
Recognizing the basic imperative to explore and understand the natural universe and the inherent dangers of doing so;
Establishes itself as an organization for individuals and parties seeking the advancement of knowledge through exploration;
Recognizing that the continued exploration of the natural universe requires economic resources;
Establishes itself as an organization for individuals and parties seeking resources to further the advancement of knowledge through exploration by means including but not limited to contractual bounties, escort services, free-trade, mineral prospecting, salvaging rights, and transportation of goods;
Recognizing that social standards vary between differing xenotypes and cognizant of the need for individual and party members to situationally honor differing social standards;
Establishes itself as a neutral entity with regards to all individuals, social organizations, and political entities, regardless of xenotype;
Resolves to advance, maintain, and protect the interests and general welfare of its individual and party members in their search for and support of the advancement of knowledge through exploration.
As an organized entity, Tabula Stellarum will not interfere with or promote the activities of non-neutral orgs, except to maintain and protect the interests of its member individuals and parties. Tabula Stellarum will initially maintain a neutral, non-aggressive posture towards all other individuals and orgs.
With so many squadrons and alliances forming, the best way for us to maintain neutrality is to limit the number of alliances we enter into, and at this time we are not actively seeking out alliances.
This is not to say that our individual members are banned from interacting with, participating in, or promoting the activities of other orgs – on the contrary, they are encouraged to do so. Our statement of neutrality applies only to Tabula Stellarum as an entity, acting or speaking on behalf of its members.
Tabula Stellarum will only consider alliances with those squadrons or organizations that have a similar statement of neutrality or can offer unique terms that would be of particular interest to explorers.
Tabula Stellarum uses a flat rank structure and all members should consider themselves to be equal to all other members. The named ranks Indagator Primus, Indagator Secundus, and Indagator Tetrius exist for administrative purposes only and have no baring on the social structure of the guild. Roles are assigned as needed on a volunteer basis and denote only an ability to handle administrative tasks; they are not an indication of rank.
The guild founders, Pooka (paperfox) and Signo Vir (Signo) have final say in all regards only as matter of functionality. In short, someone has to execute decisions on behalf of the guild. This is generally done by consensus. Non-urgent issues outside of the day-to-day running of the guild are put to members to discuss and vote on, with the founders acting in good faith on the general consensus of guild members. In practice, there isn't much to do beyond politely turning down alliances with non-neutral parties and working to actively foster the guild's neutral stance.
Members of Tabula Stellarum are responsible for their own actions, but are generally expected to use common sense in interacting with others. As an organized entity, Tabula Stellarum tends not to dictate the behavior of its members. There are three(*) exceptions to this.
It is otherwise assumed that all members of Tabula Stellarum will obey the Terms of Service and End User License Agreement for Star Citizen.
(*) Do to the possibility for multi-Org membership across multiple characters, the possibility of multi-Org affiliation among individual characters, the requirement by some Orgs to share information gleaned from other Orgs, and TSO's long-term goals, we are currently considering a partial or full moratorium on sharing information outside of the Org structure. This is being considered to avoid conflicts of interest while allowing TSO to operate successfully. If you are considering joining as a member or affiliate, please be aware that at a future date we may implement this addition.
This does not mean members may not smuggle, nor does it mean members may not trade in sentient life. Members may smuggle anything they want, other than sentients. Members may also trade freely in sentient life where it is legal. Members may not, however, trade in sentient life where it is illegal, or transport sentient life through territory where doing so is illegal.
None. This is not to be confused with privateering which is legal piracy against Enemies of the State. Any state sanctioned piracy (privateering) is perfectly acceptable. If any individual or party tries to pirate our members and loses, the spoils are free for the taking. Members may not attack friendly or neutral parties for the sole purpose of disabling or killing them to steal their ships, upgrades, cargo, etc.
This also does not apply to self defense. If you are attacked, fired upon, or have reason to believe that your cargo, ship, or life are at risk of damage, injury, destruction, or death, then you may defend yourself as you see fit. We trust that members will use common sense in determining threats. Those that exhibit a tendency towards repeated bad judgement and/or decisions made in bad faith may find themselves fending for themselves.
All shared and common spaces owned, operated, or controlled by Tabula Stellarum will remain free of hate speech. This includes — but is not limited to — hate speech pertaining to race, sexual orientation, gender, religion, or economic status. We make no claims to being family friendly, but we do want our members to have a safe space to play. Honest mistakes in casual language will get polite warnings. Intentionally, directly, using a slur at someone will not.
We do not have a lot of rules. We do not want a lot of rules. It is our hope that our community will generally act in a mature and responsible way. As long as it does we will maintain minimal involvement in dictating what members can and cannot do. We will, however, ask members to leave Tabula Stellarum if they demonstrate an inability to exhibit maturity or make no effort to do so.
