Five Dancing Israelis Arrested On 9/11

A Mossad surveillance team made quite a public spectacle of themselves on 9-11.

The New York Times reported Thursday that a group of five men had set up video cameras aimed at the Twin Towers prior to the attack on Tuesday, and were seen congratulating one another afterwards. (1)

Police received several calls from angry New Jersey residents claiming "middle-eastern" men with a white van were videotaping the disaster with shouts of joy and mockery. (2)

"They were like happy, you know ... They didn't look shocked to me" said a witness. (3)

[T]hey were seen by New Jersey residents on Sept. 11 making fun of the World Trade Center ruins and going to extreme lengths to photograph themselves in front of the wreckage. (4)

Witnesses saw them jumping for joy in Liberty State Park after the initial impact (5). Later on, other witnesses saw them celebrating on a roof in Weehawken, and still more witnesses later saw them celebrating with high fives in a Jersey City parking lot. (6)

"It looked like they're hooked in with this. It looked like they knew what was going to happen when they were at Liberty State Park." (7)

Actually Paul isn't a Republican given what has happened to the party over the past 20-30 years, so the question was somewhat appropriate. Why RP stays among that mix of gay internationalists is the real question.

jasoncin The Daily Paul January 11th, 2008

We just go back from the straw poll in Scottsdale Arizona! The vote total was 515 votes. 414 went to Ron Paul 80%!! 64 for McCain 12%, 13 votes for Romney, Giuliani 7, Fred Thompson 6, Huckabee 1, and Hunter 3.

My Husband, and I watched the ballot box all night. Suddenly, a group of McCain supporters took the box to count the votes without anyone noticing but us! My Husband John followed them. They went to a corner to count the votes and John jumped in to help count. They informed him that they did not need his help. He pushed his way into the group and let them know that he too would be assisting with the counting. They chose reluctantly not to argue! My husband is a cowboy and was not taking no for an answer. The pile of votes for Ron Paul was so high, that the pile kept falling over onto the John McCain pile. Of course no one was going to recount them but John. He had to keep grabing the McCain pile to separate all the Ron Paul votes from it! It was obvious that they did not intend for him to be there helping! Thank goodness he was there.

We need to take matters into our own hands now and then. We had a huge room of Ron Paul supporters tonight. It was a wonderful crowd to be around. But with all of us there, no one else jumped in to assist with counting. This needs to be done at all futures straw polls. They are very sneaky! Ron could have lost a lot of votes tonight.

I do wish you'd be a bit more optimistic. There is nothing lost by playing the game for a while and getting some form of message out there. Though he denies it all the time, if a GOP nod seems hopeless after super tuesday, and if his war chest is still pretty full, I think he will run as a Libertarian again.

The frog needs to be boiled until electronic ID cards are standard, all firearms have been registered, and more waves of unassimilated immigration have been completed. The economy will need to be wreaked, possibly more than one more time, as well. This should be happening in due time, but we're not there yet.

Someone in the Ron Paul campaign now could still run for President later. Hopefully many of his followers will consider running for Congress, the Senate, and local posts as well.

There is still hope.

And, no matter how many dirty curves they throw, Paul answers and kicks their asses!

honey, I think it'll be police state if we don't get Ron Paul in our White House next year
and if we do, we are safe

so I guess I stick with what I said

altho fine you see it differently
that's what a forum is, each puts in their two cents
Love, Palo

it will probably follow the course it is taking in UK
I notice their posters can still say what they want on net
but their citizens are spied on everywhere
the new law just passed there is huge fine ($250) for talking on cellphone while driving, smoking a cig while driving,
or eating while driving
they have new technology which takes the pic, sends it instantly to cops
and bingo before you've gone ten more miles the cops have you
they also can take away your drivers license

also I notice they no longer can have political demonstrations in UK
plus cops are now licensed to shoot to kill for domesic violence or stalking
this is how it starts...

I don't want to alarm anyone because I know President Ron Paul will be in Office, and he will veto all these bills here
we are safe!

Anger is the appropriate reaction to globalism, and political parties who harbor it. That said, RP is a fine man terribly miscast as a leader of what might be a movement.

I just don't see how we can continue down police state track with President Paul in Office
not only will he veto all the bills, he can go on TV and explain it to everyone
plus he can count on everyone who voted for him to be in Oval Office
he will have the people behind him

maybe I'm wrong about this, and those who are determined on police state will find a way to get around President Paul
but right at this minute it is not how I see it

I think we already have the strong beginnings of that with militarized and federally-coordinated local police forces — and the unconstitutional laws and EOs that have been imposed over the past six years.

I notice their posters can still say what they want on net [in the UK]

Not so. BNP activist Nick Griffin in the UK was charged with inciting hatred for speaking out against Islamics in the UK. The BBC caught him on video at a fairly private dinner making the remarks and he was dealing with the UK court system for a long time. If he had published those remarks online, the problem would have been magnified by the more public nature of his words.

Our situation is already becoming similar to the UK's in that respect because it is so risky to speak out about politically incorrect issues now. With Jane Harman's HR 1955 nearly passed, it may soon be technically illegal for us to be having this kind of conversation, discussing the possibility of a tyrannical police state that should be resisted.

The point isn't will "pom-poms and cheerleading" win out over "Diebold Delivers", but that it is making the point to an awful lot of people who heretofore did not take it seriously that "Diebold Delivers".

This is forcing the hand of the election rigging Plutocrats and their minions and is rubbing peoples' noses in the FACT that the U.S. National (s)Elections are rigged from the get-go - from candidate (s)Election to installment in orofice. A lot of people being woken up to the fact that they have not been getting any lubricant.

Hi my sweet friend,
my friend Helen, forwarded me the email she got from her best friend Wendy, who I gather from email is Obama supporter
this is the email, deduce from it what you think?
Love, Palo

(Helen forwarded this to me

HI ANNIE THOUGHT YOU'D FIND THIS INTERESTINg

here is forwarded email from Wendy

Guys, I felt IMMEDIATELY that something was wrong with the disparity between all the polls, exit polls and actual numbers re: Obama and Clinton. This website, I hope it is this one, had about 100 posts from really smart people re: numbers and Diebold machines. I found out about this so called loss when I was out last night. Instantly I recalled two friends, Ken A. and Juan C. who lived with Dean in NH during THAT primary. Well, they both claimed that something was seriously askew back then. Apparently, nothing has changed. If you can read all the comments you'lll see that this isn't only pro-Obama people who find last nights' results crazy but all who care about voting rights. I beg you to read at this site. I just donated money, a little, for these guys to get to NH and dig. Because there is still time to make an internet inquiry, or rather for Internet bloggers to get to NH so that they can get the truth. They need to be very smart about how Diebold works, and who might have hacked it, the consensus is the Repugs and since you are the names on the top of my head, please pass this along to anyone who won't think we are conspiracy nuts, but are dealing with something quite obvious: That

in the entire process last night, all the polls were right EXCEPT the Obama Hillary poll which is fishy as hell. And how all the HAND counted votes tallied with polls but the majority of Diebold did not. If you are FOR hillary this is just as important if in a different way: if someone with a bias has control of the 81% of machines then there is no democratic election possible. Also, remember Iowa, where voting is more than open, you are seen as you vote in caucuses? Well, that came out according to polls. I personally cannot believe we still have Diebold machines at all. That's it. This isn't sour grapes, this was my absolute first and stunned thought. Wendy

If he had published those remarks online, the problem would have been magnified by the more public nature of his words.

Our situation is already becoming similar to the UK's in that respect because it is so risky to speak out about politically incorrect issues now. With Jane Harman's HR 1955 nearly passed, it may soon be technically illegal for us to be having this kind of conversation right, discussing the possibility of a tyrannical police state that should be resisted.

you are awesome

And you can bet that one of the prime targets of that law WAS, without a doubt, forums such as this and alternative talk radio such as Alex Jones.

You are a remarkable woman. I know you understand that I do not agree with Nick Griffin in total, but rather I speak up for his right to say what he believes, even if he hates others. The right to speak up and warn one another of threats, cultural, political, legal, and so forth — is essential for liberty to be protected.. HR 1955 makes it illegal to say that the government is no longer legally viable, because that implies that force would be required to make it accountable again.

Exactly. By building enough steam, and enough of an organization, he has forced them virtually out into the open to where the election stealing operations are in nearly plain view.

The faster people realize that the government they have is not one of their choosing, and that it is run by a criminal elite, the better the chance we have of heading off the complete tyranny that they are rushing full speed ahead up our collective, uh, umm, streets. Yeah, that's what I meant "Streets".

What about changing your mind? What if one day you agree with your government, and the next, for whatever reason, you don't? What if you believe so deeply that the government is wrong that you say that force may be required to bring it around to the proper direction. That's all you do is say that. Should changing your mind from agreeable citizen to vociferously aggressive opponent of the government be allowed?

That is basically what we have had - a slow revolution and hostile takeover by a monied elite.

In order to reclaim our freedom it may well take a revolution against the cabal which has subverted and stolen our government and our country. I am hoping that it will be a relatively bloodless one but fear it will not be. At this late hour the criminals are in essentially full control of the FedGov and many of the State Governments.

A lot of people being woken up to the fact that they have not been getting any lubricant.

Exactly.

Perhaps - but I suspect that the gubment will use its new found powers per HR 1955 to go after more obvious unsympathetic targets like Storm Front and as we have just learned, 9/11 truther sites. ( ???) After the better known sites are taken down, then the gubment does not need to do anything more - the small political discussion websites will just fold spontaneously due to fear. Mission accomplished!

What I am surprised about is that talk radio has not been more alarmed about H.R. 1955 - the talk jocks make $ by stirring up the pot and regularly saying provocative things and some - like Savage and Beck - say edgey suggestions that can be construed as fomenting physical action - CAIR is probably waiting with bated breath to report Savage and Beck. FR has questionable posts ( under 1955 guidelines) on a regular basis as does LitGrnFtballs etc. Kossacks get very animated and effusive in their criticism of fedgov. Do any of you who post to other forums recall if there's been any outcry against HR 1955?

Hi Original Intent
I had an epiphany after watching Ron Paul so intently in the South Carolina FOX debate two nights ago
I woke up the next morning and knew he would be our President
this has had a huge effect on me, because suddenly I am no longer worried about the dark coming
and I used to see the dark so clearly and be so worried about it
it's as if such a bright light went off in my mind, I don't see the dark now
I still participate in these conversations, because it reassures me everyone sees the dark so crystal clearly
but I guess I am 100 per cent optimistic now
Love, Palo

to use your superb image
I try to keep as upbeat as I can even though I can see the nightfall darkening our horizon

I no longer (as of yesterday) see the nightfall darkening our horizon
all is bright for me now...

Data insufficient at this point but we actually have a fighting chance now thanks to the likes of Alex Jones, the often unfairly maligned Church of Scientology, Patriots across the country, Judicial Watch, and others who have been fighting the good fight.

That is why Home Schooling is under such attack - the kids are not robotized by the curriculum and are actually getting an education. That should tell folks something - when a High School Graduate Mom, or Dad, can turn out a better product than a Publik Skool Systum with 10 grand per student then there is a big giveaway as to what is actually going on in the Publik Skools.

Decades of divide and conquer politics, can be corrected when people wake up en masse.

Exactly. We all have much more in common than such trifling differences as to who our Grand Parents were or what color their skin was. Black, White, Red, and Yellow we all want that same priceless commodity - Freedom.

Now if only we can get at the dolts who listen to Rush, the Gay Pill Popping Pedophile, Scumbaugh and post at Gulag Republik to remove their craniums from the rectal cavities.

This is an old quote form Louis Mcfadden...A Congressman that paid with his life for speaking up...

"Our freedom did not drop down like manna from heaven. It has been fought for from the beginning of our history and the blood of men has been shed to obtain it. It is the result of centuries of resistance to the power of the executive and it has brought us equal justice, trial by jury, freedom of worship, and freedom of religious and political opinion. Democracy is far the most difficult form of government because it requires for perfect functioning the participation of everybody.

"Democracy wants constant guarding, and for us to turn to a dictatorship would be an act of consummate cowardice, of surrender, of confession that our strength and courage alike had gone.

Get done???

It wont get done because too many people chose to sit on the sideline and do nothing.

I and 20 million other "Americans" exercised our right of choice and voted for Perot. I certainly voted with no illusions about Perot being President. Likewise I do not labor with any illusions about Paul.

Why do I not have illusions about Paul??? There are more voters than there are caring "Americans". With that in mind I resent others doing their best to prevent me and others from having a choice.

The indoctrination of the masses by the system is working quite well as evidenced in NH voting for war mongers, and the persistent cry "Paul cant win".

I prefer supporting and voting for a guaranteed American loser than a programmed candidate of the ruling elite.

Asking how Paul can be elected is a waste of time, he will never be president, therefore the question is moot.

Decades of dumbing down, can not be corrected in one election cycle.

Decades of divide and conquer politics, can be corrected when people wake up en masse.

It's toward that point, we are heading.

Whether it's survivable or not, who knows.

Whether we live to see it, who knows?

Great post - thanks.

Congressman McFadden was a Patriot in the true sense of the word - one who loves his country (as opposed to the government worshipping buffoons at Gulag Republic) - as was Smedley Butler. They, among others, tried to alert the country early on as to the tyranny being installed but their warnings were not heeded and now we are left a desperate fight. If people do not think the fight desperate it is not because it is not but because they do not fully comprehend what we are facing - a virtual hell on earth with mind controlled serfs lorded over by a psychotically sick elite, and that is sugar coating it.

Is Ron Paul the Louis McFadden of our day?

Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) served on the House Banking Committee, and is currently on the Joint Economic Committee and the Committee on Financial Services.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_paul

Congressman Louis T. McFadden (R-PA) (1876-1936) was a Chairman of the United States House Committee on Banking and Currency (1920-31).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_mcfad...

They both criticized the Federal Reserve, and they are both proponents of the gold standard.

We may, or may not, be correct, but what you read is the truth as we see it.

You can't ask for any more than that.

thank you my beloved friend, Jim

I have been brave in my personal life
I didn't enjoy it
it meant being scared to death, but acting as if I wasn't
I think that period of my life is now over
I look forward to not having to demonstrate that kind of bravery again
altho I'm not sorry I went thru it, how else do we discover our strength

if I am called upon for bravery for political stuff now, I will
but I am happy just posting my truth on internet, that brings me total joy
Love, Palo

buckeye, stuff I did in my early 20s politically required no bravery for me then
lol I was 22 years old, I found it thrilling exciting and fun...
that is what 22 is!

Perhaps. However, the evidence is there, and has been all along, for anyone willing to look.

Cyni,

I too was a Perotista. As you'll recall 1992 was before 9/10ths of the nation voted on Diebolt machines. Now that our "votes" are tallied on vapor, the exercise has become bread and circus. Voter manipulation does exist, corporate/MSM sponsored polls do not honestly reflect the pulse of the nation and a majority of the American people aren’t bright enough to understand even a fraction of the RP message. For these reasons this election is a signed, sealed and delivered to whichever globalist has been designated. The agenda will continue unabated.

The twenty-percenters are freaking hopeless and clueless.

The right wingers don't get the significance of H.R. 1955 and how it will impact THEM. They are thinking since it's Jane Harman who has sponsored the bill, it will only be applied against the Storm Fronters and the 9/11 Truthers. Wrong.

This bill will allow the gubment to decide sbjectively what constitutes fomenting violence stateside. It's not even doing violence. It is POSSIBLY encouraging - as the gubment might SUBJECTIVELY judge it to be so - others to PERHAPS act with force.

Their sites are big targets because continually calling Muslims bad guys and wanting them deported holus bolus could be viewed as fomenting violence against Muslim Americans. Ditto for el pee's 24/7 highly negative articles and remarks about Hispanics. Who knows where this type of "racism" could lead to, says the desk jockey bureaucrat to himself as he thinks about how to stand out to get a promotion and increased pay grade as well as unambitious run-of-the -mill civil servants who are encouraged to meet their monthly quotas for enforcing HR 1955... Talking about Dem politicians in highly derisive and controversial manners - who may very well form the next majority government - could possibly be construed as encouraging uprising and rebellion in the public square.

Dems and GOPers, liberals and conservatives together must pressure their Senators to stop this Stalinist bill in its tracks. Once gubment is given power to erode constitutional rights we know gubment will not hesitate to do so across the board - gubment always needs the appearance of being fair and balanced as it applies its legal mandates.

what happened last summer?

Legal immigration activists put the fear of God into congress when the President was lying about the McCain-Kennedy bill not being amnesty, and it was nearly railroaded through the Capitol.

The political ground was shaken under their feet, and they knew they had reached the absolute limits that they could push with their legal anarchy.

I am certain that it was this watershed moment that led to HR 1955's meteoric rise.

whole Senate wants it

talk radio does immigration 24/7
but they will never go near this one
because they are in bed with the same people who want the police state
that's why they never mention Ron Paul either

To the extent that he could encourage the DOJ to get it judicially reviewed. To the extent that he could avoid prosecuting it, again with influence on the DOJ. I know immigration is not your issue, but you may find yourself curious about the coincidence of the massive activism last summer (in outcry against the loss of legal integrity in our government over the issue) and the rapid sweeping in of the HR 1955 legislation.

This is why HR 1955 discusses American-born citizens.

Recall that Bill Clinton tried to tie the patriot movement to Timothy McVeigh after the Murrah building attacks. The language of HR 1955 is directly related to both the Murrah building incident and last year's summer of immigration activism.

The Internet links us together in our love of country and the rule of law, and this terrifies the outlaw Establishment that congress protects.

I find it significant that a CFR member, Jane Harman, and apparently a Zionist, is somehow indirectly concerned with the Patriot movement, which concerns itself with the American identity.

We do have an identity, Palo. Part of that identity is the love of the law, and the faith that it sets us free because it sets us apart from savagery, and rules over us with equal protection. Part of that identity is the English language, and the heritage it brings with us.

A culture like ours, which has extended its generosity to so many, is worth preserving. We have shed blood over generations to build and preserve what we have here, and it is too precious to see it destroyed by globalism and unprincipled multiculturalism. And yet htis is what the ADL strives to do, and has in many ways succeeded in doing.

HR 1955 is another brick in the wall around our freedom to preserve our American culture of freedom and sovereignty by standing up for what we believe with our freely spoken words.

It's too late to call Congressmen. It's now been forwarded to the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, names of committee members here, 17 members in total, some more vulnerable than others as noted below.

Those of us who are active in other political boards or political meet-up groups - whether they are of Dem or Repub persuation - need to marshall the energies of members of those groups and encourage them to call and fax and send letters of protest to their own senators as well as to the Senators on the Committee on Homeland Security. The Senate Bill is S-1959. ( mirror of HR 1955). This bill is a thought crime bill - a variation of a hate crime bill, that fell through earlier this year. The same anti-free speech Stalinists are trying to ram this through. We must stop them at the Senate level.

Light up the switchboard at (202) 224-3121, and let the Senators know that they should not vote for an unconstitutional thought-crime measure like the "Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act" S-1959. Our free speech rights are the corner stone of our fair Republic and guaranteed free speech is something that distinguishes us from all other nations. They should over turn what other Americans through history fought to defend and to preserve.

Here's more on contacting Senators by snail mail ( the best!), by phone, by email and fax:

Oops - I forgot to add the wiki write up about Media Blackout - you can go to the site and read it yourself but here is the specific section along with institutional Reaction:

en.wikipedia.org/wi ki/US_House_Resolution_1955

Media reaction The mainsteam press as of Jan. 7, 2008 appears to have blacked out this issue: Exceptional coverage did occur in The Brattleboro Reformer ,Brattleboro VT(Jan. 4,2008, Nov. 28, 2007), Madison Capital Times. Madison, Wis. (Jan 4, 2008) and The Salt Lake Tribune Salt Lake City, UT (Oct. 28). Other exceptions are noted below:

The Baltimore Sun published a opinion article by Professor Emeritus Ralph E. Shaffer and R. William Robinson, titled "Here come the thought police" Check Sun archives after Dec. 18,2007. [27]

The Pioneer Press published an article by Professor Peter Erlinder, pointing out disturbing parallels to the House Un-American Activities Committee.[28]

Conservative commentator Devvy Kidd writes: "Since the bill doesn't specifically define what an extremist belief system is, it is entirely up to the interpretation of the government.... Essentially they have defined violent radicalization as thought crime.""[29]

In an interview aired on Democracy Now, Academic and author Ward Churchill said: "HR 1955, as I understand it, provides a basis for subjective interpretation of dissident speech...."[13]

Kamau Franklin of the Center for Constitutional Rights said that the bill "concentrates on the internet as a place where terrorist rhetoric or ideas have been coming across into the United States and to American citizens.” [30]

LewRockwell.com columnist Jeff Knaebel criticizes it as an Orwellian thought crime bill specifically targeting the civilian population in the USA and defines "Violent Radicalization" as promoting any belief system which the government deems to be "extremist." [31]

The Hartford Advocate, noting that all of Connecticut's Representatives had voted for the bill, sought to interview one of them, but reported that none of them would comment on the record, personally or through a spokesperson, about their reasons for voting in favor. The Advocate concluded that the problem with the bill was "not that the bill threatens anything specific, but that it’s far too vague."[32]

[edit] Institutional reaction The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) issued a statement saying:, "Law enforcement should focus on action, not thought. We need to worry about the people who are committing crimes rather than those who harbor beliefs that the government may consider to be extreme."[33]

The National Lawyers Guild and the Society of American Law Teachers issued a joint statement opposing the Bill: "The National Lawyers Guild and the Society of American Law Teachers strongly urge the Senate to refuse to pass the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007." Details about their objections can be read here.

The Center for Constitutional Rights opposes the bill and issued this Fact Sheet. (cut and paste the following url)

ccrjustice.org/learn-more...olent-radicalization-and- homegrown-terrorism-prevention-act-2007

The John Birch Society wrote in an Action Alert: "I haven't found anyone who supports this bill and contests these very negative interpretations. If there isn't anyone who can explain why it does not have these negative consequences, than your objective template is unwarranted and should be removed."[34]

Thanks for the up-date. But I think it's still worth calling them - play on their party loyalty - maybe we should vary the approach a bit to the Senators you mention above, rowdee, with ( as the case may be):

"I really want the Dems/Repubs to retain your seat ( or to retain/regain majority power on Capitol Hill if these are not our Senators and we are contacting them because they are members of the HS Committee) in November '08 and I must tell you that this bill is extremely important to me and to the people I work with and my fellow church goers....blah, blah...

Yep - I do.

These individual Senators love power not only with regards to what their state senate seat affords them but also what special powers controlling the Senate might afford them in 11/08 - either cushy Committee assignments or bare bones nothing if they are in the minority.

The balance of power in the Senate shifted but a little in 2006. It could get very bad for the GOP due to dubya or it get worse for the Dems because they have not delivered. It's up in the air. I think we need to play on their love of being on the majority side and their fear of being cast into the minority.

The Senate bill is not the one we need to worry about. It hasn't moved from committee. It won't as long as HR1955 is moving. It is out of the House and in Senate committee. Energy should be directed at that bill.

I would give anything to stop this bill being passed by our Senate but I have no idea how?? Do you know how many Representatives voted for it, it was practically unanimous and it will be practically unanimous in Senate too

There was an attempt in the second half of the 1950's to pass a bill to start a Soviet Style Psychiatric Gulag in Alaska - any person could be sent there without trial or due process if some Psychiatrist said so. It passed the House almost unanimously but then it got publicized and was stopped cold in the Senate.

That CAN be done here. We just have to raise hell about it.

The Internet links us together in our love of country and the rule of law, and this terrifies the outlaw Establishment that congress protects.

Criminals get very nervous when people start uncovering, and making public, their crimes.

That is likely how the House and Senate are kept under control - Dossiers on their individual criminal actions. Which are compiled and used by even bigger criminals i.e., Lobbies, Foreign Interest Groups, Bankers, etc., ...

That is one of the things about Ron Paul that scares the Banksters and other members of the Criminal Establishment - he has led a clean life and they don't have any handles on him to blackmail him into compliance.

The real targets of this bill are the Internet, and alternative Talk Radio such as Alex Jones and Jack Blood. The more we talk, and the more we exchange information the more nervous they get. They fear discovery of their crimes.

The Powers That Be do not want people exchanging ideas and information regarding politics at all. They only want sanitized meaningless PC pablum consumed. They want voters of all political stripes very fearful to get news anywhere but through reading and listening to and watching "approved" MSM slop.

HR-1955 was introduced to the House on April 19 2007 and passed on Oct 23, 2007. It was introduced to the Senate on August 2, 2007 as S-1959.

Sorry, that's not how it works. Bills keep their numbers when they change houses. These are two separate bills, one originating in the House (HR) and one originating in the Senate (S). When you look up HR1955 it will show several versions. One is designated as HR 1955 RFS which stands for "refered to the Senate."

...Jewish...

Hi sweetie
I used to be on Liberty Forum, which is "hate Jews all-the-time"
I didn't know that when I joined it, I discovered it almost right away tho
I thought about it and realized, "if they want to hate Jews, it's their problem, it has nothing to do with me"
and I decided to stay, they had some great posters then, with some great truth
And the posters were great to me too
(this was 5 years ago)
After that I ignore hate Jews posts, hate Muslims post, hate Mexicans post
And I give love to all posters (no matter who they hate) as long as they are friendly to me
LOL my Jewish friends are all leftists, they support the Palestinians
My husband is Catholic, he supports Israel
I love both Palestinians and Israelis, I pray for peace for both of them
Larry King is right when he warmly embraced Yassir Arafat, and said "we are cousins"
When my friend Linda Zuckerman visited over there, she came back and reported "all the Palestinians look like us"
Israelis and Palestinians are beautiful people, I hope they choose peace and work it out
Love, Palo

Yitzhak Rabin is a great hero of mine,
He realized Israel's security lay in peace.
He broached it to Arafat, who realized Palestinians' security lay in peace.
They worked long and hard on the Oslo Accords and called each other brother.
They both wanted peace with all their heart for their people.
But as always, the people choose.
And whatever choice they make they live.

I think President Ron Paul will be excellent, he will treat all with friendship and respect, and let all make their own decisions.
It is their business, no one else's because they live it

Amen.

Being, or trying to be, the world's 'policeman' is killing our country, our military, and soon enough, most all the rest of us.)

(Lightly scrambled, would be nice, thanks.)
