Title: Sign posted on Lynn house draws ire of area Jews

LYNN -- A bluntly worded sign posted on the Nahant Street home of a local lawyer criticizing Israeli expansionism, is upsetting some Diamond District residents.

Martin J. McNulty, familiar to longtime Lynn residents for his multiple runs for mayor and congress, is drawing the ire of some members of Lynn's Jewish community because of a large, hand-lettered sign affixed to the front of his 84 Nahant St. home, reading "Land Grabbing Israel is Bleeding America."

McNulty confirmed hanging the sign - and said he intends to leave it in place until members of the community have had a chance to see it - as a medium for expressing his opinion over perceived impacts on American and international politics due, he believes, to Israel's foreign and domestic policies.

"I think the war in Iraq is, for a large part, due to Israel's actions in the Middle East. I think the London bombing is due to Israel's actions in the Middle East. The French, the Germans, billions of Muslims, and many former allies hate America today, largely due to what Israel has done in the Middle East," said McNulty. "I don't think media coverage of this situation is balanced. Because I don't own a newspaper, because the Daily Item won't publish my letters, I feel my option to make my viewpoint known is to put a sign on my property."

McNulty flatly denied being an anti-Semite. His publicly displayed viewpoint, however, has caught the attention of some watchdog organizations.

"We started getting calls on Monday, also got complaint from our Web site. We have made numerous calls to attorney McNulty to talk about this, and he hasn't' returned any of our calls," said Robert Trestan, Civil Right Council of the New England regional office of the Anti-Defamation League, an American organization established by the B'nai B'rith to discourage anti-Semitism and bigotry. Trestan stopped short of suggesting the sign was illegal- and it appears not to violate any of Lynn's sign ordinances- or hate speech, but said it shares phrasing with sentiments sometimes expressed by avowed anti-Semite or anti-Israeli groups.

"There are non-offensive, non-divisive ways to make a political statement if that's what he is trying to do. The language of this sign is offensive. We would encourage him to take the sign down and we'll work with the community encourage him to take the sign down," he said.

McNulty said, afforded a different forum, he could produce "a more rational" explication of his views. The sign, he said, was more intended to provoke discussion.

"I hope it will provoke some thought among people in the community about ongoing issues in Middle East and how it impacts America," he said.

While McNulty said several neighbors have reacted "favorably" to his sign, or expressed the belief that he has the legal right to publicly advertise his view, in a neighborhood with a large Jewish population and only blocks fromCongregation Ahabat Sholom on Ocean Street, the sign is drawing a strong negative reaction.

"It's very offensive, and we take great umbrage to that sign," said Rabbi Avraham Kelman, Rabbi of Congregation Ahabat Sholom in Lynn's Diamond District. "I don't understand the motivation behind this. Every individual is entitled to their own opinion, but we view this as an insult to the members of the Jewish community who love Israel."

For James Breed, aspiring to a spot on the School Committee, McNulty's sign came as a double shock. Not only does Breed disagree with the sentiment, but was alarmed to learn that one of his own campaign signs was on display in McNulty's yard.

"I had no idea about this. I disagree with the message, obviously, and I've made sure my sign has been removed from that yard."

Councilor-at-Large Tim Phelan, currently living in the Diamond District, said several neighbors have contacted him.

"I'm appalled and offended by what the owner of the property has put up," he said. "It seems a political statement more than anything else, and the ability to speak your peace is one of the things that makes America great, but it seems distasteful and inappropriate for the area. There is a large Jewish population in the neighborhood, the Temple is up the street, and I think it's a slap in the face to those people."

I think the war in Iraq is, for a large part, due to Israel's actions in the Middle East. I think the London bombing is due to Israel's actions in the Middle East.

From The Guardian:

Vatican in terror dispute with Israel

The Vatican's stinging rebuke came after Israel demanded to know why the Pope did not refer to a Palestinian suicide bombing in remarks he made on Sunday condemning terrorist attacks in London and Sharm el-Sheikh....

...It said one reason for this was that "the attacks on Israel were sometimes followed by immediate Israeli reactions not always compatible with the norms of international law ... It would thus be impossible to condemn the [terrorist operations] and pass over the [Israeli retaliation] in silence".

Shortly afterwards the Israeli prime minister, Ariel Sharon, ordered his ministers not to comment on the London bombings for fear that their remarks could be interpreted as seeking to make political capital out of the killings.

But Mr Shalom's wife, Judy, felt no such restraint on a television chatshow a few days later. "As long as I hold no official position I can say it's not all bad for the English to find out what it's like," she said.

This is quite acceptable to say, no one criticized Ariel Shalom's wife for saying this.

Since Judy Shalom seems to have so much to say, can she tell us how Netanyahu was warned to stay in his hotel room, and no one else in the entire UK was warned? And, can she tell us why these suicide bombers used timers? And can she tell us how an innocent Brazilian on his way to work as an electrician was shot 5 times after being chased and subdued by several police? Tell us Judy, inquiring minds want to know.

They will never address those points.
As far as the sign being "offensive" to Jews I find the following offensive to us Eurofolk.

“Keep bashing the dead white males, and the live ones, and the females, too, until the social construct known as the white race is destroyed. Not deconstructed, but destroyed.” – Noel Ignatiev, Jewish Harvard professor (Washington Times, September 4, 2002)

The writer really stuck to the Jewish propaganda technique when writing this- Jews as victims, Jews offended, man with sign portrayed like a criminal when no law was broken, unoffensive speech called offensive, Synagogue in the area defiled, other whites in the hood upset and offended and demand he cease and desist, ADL involved, etc.

-Accused of being an 'antisemite' for just SPEAKING THE TRUTH

-This part of the article paints him as an antisemite and then teaches the readers a lesson on what happens to people who criticize Jews- 'watchdog orgs like the ADL will be all over you.'

The bottom line: Why is this a story and why is the structure of the article exactly like that of all 'stories' on antisemitism (anti Zionism)?

This is all about conditioning whites. That's it.

"It's very offensive, and we take great umbrage to that sign," said Rabbi Avraham Kelman, Rabbi of Congregation Ahabat Sholom in Lynn's Diamond District.

the holy man ploy. This is an appeal to authority and is a tactic to get readers to accept what he said because he is a Rabbi. The congregation is mentioned for the same reason, but on a collective scale.

Everything I am pointing out has been carefully calculated.

***

"We have made numerous calls to attorney McNulty to talk about this, and he hasn't' returned any of our calls,"

Organized Jewry attacking individual in a group to bury him. ADL is another appeal to authority, or appeal to an expert. They mention his occupation as an attorney to damage his practice, so noone will want to hire him.

***

Notice all the instances of "Well it may be true technically that we have free speech, but it is not to be exercised in this manner" Like the 1st position of the censors here.

***

"Every individual is entitled to their own opinion, but we view this as an insult to the members of the Jewish community who love Israel."

As if they haven't based this man enough, they call his free speech an insult to imply that he made his sign to purposely antagonize the Jews. They establish motive.

In the sentence I quoted, the implication is that the Jewish community has a right to not be offended, while the individual has a responsibility not to offend Jews. If you read it carefully, what it really says is 'Every individual is entitled to their own opinion.' Their own opinion. It does not say that individuals are also entitled to posting signs that are perfectly legal on their own property. IOW, keep your mouth shut and keep your opinions to yourself.

The most disturbing thing about the sentence is the implication that Jews as a group have rights and the individual doesn't. Collectivism. This man is getting hammered by groups. This is what happens in a system in which the govt gives groups power and rights and takes away power and rights from the individual.

***

Think of all the effort the media made to put this article together. Every sentence, except the quotes of the man, specifically designed to benefit the Jewish group in that town. They misrepresent the 1st amendment, clouding the waters really, so that readers think that the 1st amendment has limits when it comes to speech on Jews. And, of course, the article is written to show what an attack this man is under, as a warning to all individuals to censor their speech regarding Jews.

This is blatant intimidation; they've used these tactics, including murder, against patriots here and abroad and so far they have gotten away with it.



"The truth is that Mozart, Pascal, Boolean algebra, Shakespeare, parliamentary government, baroque churches, Newton, the emancipation of women, Kant, Marx, Balanchine ballet et al., don't redeem what this particular civilization has wrought upon the world. The white race is the cancer of human history. It is the white race and it alone—its ideologies and inventions—which eradicates autonomous civilizations wherever it spreads, which has upset the ecological balance of the planet, which now threatens the very existence of life itself"
(Partisan Review, winter 1967, p. 57). " -Susan Sontag

They get away with this because they own the MSM.
They give the masses "news" which is nothing more than propaganda suited to their agenda.

There is no way a true Christian can support Anti-Christs against the Palestinians who are both Christians and Muslims and whose land was stolen from them and who are victimized. The Church of Bethlehem was shot up by IDF thugs.

The article is just more Jewish agitprop to let us know ZOG is in charge. It would take a major catastrophe to dislodge ZOG, say another Wall Street crash, World War, or both. Even then it would be difficult to overcome the monster, I'd venture to say the Zionists have more power in America today than the Bolsheviks had on the eve of the 1917 Revolution. Some historians estimate 40- million Russians, mostly Orthodox Christians, went to early graves in the aftermath of that revolution

Communism was a mere front for the Zionists. So was and is the American liberal movement for the last 50 years. Now, the Zionists have latched onto the American "conservative" right including a segment of Christians who have been conned into worshipping Israel.

Remember the 45 Communist Goals printed into the Congressional record back in 1963. Hell, it wasn't the American Communist Party diligently working on implementation of those: it was and remains the American Zionist Party.

Think I'll post those tonight to refresh everyone's memory.

What American patriots are concerned about is the destruction of our nation.
We have long been puzzled by how it happened, we wondered who was responsible because although we knew something was terribly wrong we had no clues in the MSM as to who had worked to change our country.
Thanks to the efforts of academicians like Kevin MacDonald, and researchers too numerous to mention, we now have serious documentary evidence to conclude that there was one major force who made this evil downturn in our America possible.

Yes. It is a means to an end, the end being Zionists seizing power.

America is now collectivist. In a system of groups that are hostile to the majority, Zionists leverage their collective power and become the most powerful group- so powerful that they routinely thwart the will of the vast majority in a 'democratic' system. Only collectivism allows a small group to do this- its why many Zionists consistently supported Communism since Bolshevik Russia.
