Doc, some posts previously provided about claims young innocent boy made to drink fuel (only)
I still see no evidence of this from you or anyone else. You may not feel truth is a requirement in your efforts but I do, even though I know the horrible deeds of the Zio’s.
OK Doc, I’m ready to call BS to the claims made the killers made the poor young guy drink fuel.
The investigators’ statement reads, in part: “On July 2, 2014, the three suspects decided together to kidnap and murder an Arab. They searched for a victim in several Arab neighborhoods in East Jerusalem, finally arriving in Shoafat. When they saw that the teenager Mohammed Abu Khdeir was alone, they seized him, forced him into their car, beat and stunned him and took him to the Jerusalem Forest. There they threw him out of the car, poured gasoline on him, set him on fire and fled.
“During the investigation, the three suspects confessed to the charges against them and re-enacted the events. Moreover, they said their motive was revenge for the kidnapping and murder of the three Jewish teenagers [Naftali Fraenkel, Gilad Shaar and Eyal Yifrah].”

If haaretz had claimed this previously they most certainly would have included in story now that gag order was lifted. No doubt about it. Kick your source in the butt.
DrK I’m not yet ready to call BS with respect to your claims in this thread, but I am very concerned of the source you use for your articles.
Firstly your source Richard Silverstein does not provide a link to the newspaper article but simply copy and pace a jpeg image of supposed Hebrew text into his blog. This is shoddy investigative reporting to say the least.
A quick look into this guy’s background leads the reader to some alarming claims.
Yossi Melman, a veteran security and intelligence reporter for Haaretz argues that Silverstein “spreads rumors without checking them” and “is an ideologue, not a journalist.” He adds, “[Silverstein] is speculative. It is like at the casino: Sometimes he gets it right, and sometimes he doesn’t.”
On August 15, 2012, a Tikun Olam blog entry entitled “Bibi’s Secret War Plan”[23] centered around a “scoop”—a document purporting to outline plans for a secret Israeli attack against Iran. Silverstein claimed to have received the “secret” document from an Israel Defense Forces officer to “expose the arguments and plans advanced by the Bibi-Barak two-headed warrior”.
The blog post was picked up by several mainstream media outlets, including the BBC.
However, the supposed secret Israeli government document was strikingly similar to an article that had been published several days earlier on the Israeli online forum “Fresh”.[24] It was written by veteran Fresh contributor “Sirpad,” who clearly stated that it was “based on foreign and non-classified sources and on the author’s own imagination.”[25][26]

Affectionately referred to as “Little Dickie” and “KapoDickie” by his detractors, Silverstein has been embroiled in ongoing spats with several bloggers and websites including The Shield of Achilles, Justin White, Kapodickie- an Adventure in Jewish self-hatred , Aussie Dave , CK , Masada2000 as well as the now defunct (and vulgar) Little Dickie’s Diaper Droppings. He also shoots himself in the foot with Daniel Pipes and is accused of making false allegations about Campus Watch and CAMERA.
Bringing Silverstein further in disrepute, he was recently found by the California Court of Appeals to have libeled Rachel Neuwirth for calling her a “Kahanist swine”.
Commenting upon the Mumbai terror attacks on ‘Comment is Free’, Silverstein outdid even himself by openly denying the antisemitic nature of the gruesome murder of Rabbi Holtzberg and his wife taking the claim of the single surviving terrorist at face value by making the following statement:
“Pakistani militants have been known to select prominent foreign targets within Pakistan, as the Mumbai terrorists did last week. But few, if any, Pakistani militants have been known until now specifically to target Israelis. I say, Israelis rather than Jews because the single surviving terrorist noted that they chose Chabad House to avenge the suffering of the Palestinians. Therefore, the attack was anti-Israeli, though not necessarily antisemitic.”

Silverstein – a ‘Comment is Free‘ contributor through 2012 who, until now, was best known for his anti-Israel (and at times pro-Hamas) activism and his faux scoops – has now revealed himself to be bigoted towards black Americans as well. The term “Negro” stopped being used in America in the late 60s or early 70s, and the term “Uncle Tom“ of course is a horrible epithet used historically to accuse African-Americans of being subservient to whites, and betraying their own group by participating in systematic white racism.

When blogger Richard Silverstein isn’t expressing support for the end of the Jewish state, defending terror groups like Hamas, or engaging in smears and reckless attacks against his opponents, he’s often busy peddling false “scoops“ based on little or no evidence.
A few days ago, we were contacted by an Israeli who’s aware of Silverstein’s penchant for publishing “scoops” based on little or no research or fact-checking. He explained how he recently fed Silverstein completely made-up stories, selling them as “scoops”, to see if he would bite.
That same day, Silverstein reported the following, quoting verbatim his “anonymous Israeli source” in a post titled “Israeli Drones Fallin’ from the Skies Like Flies: Third UAV Sabotaged by Hacking.”
The UAV didn’t crash, the UAV control center lost communication due to heavy interference in the COM link. After few very long minutes at which the re establish comm procedure failed, the CCC (control center commander) ordered the self-destruction of the UAV. There was lots of drama as it appeared the UAV had a mind of its own or that someone gained positive control.
Then, on Oct. 13 the Israeli “source” sent him the following concocted tale, purporting to represent secret information on another Israeli drone failure.
And, two days later, in a post titled ‘Iran Hacks Azerbaijan’s Israeli-Made Drone Fleet‘, Silverstein wrote that his “Israeli source” revealed that “the Iranians have hacked Azerbaijan’s Israeli-made drone fleet as well.” Silverstein then quoted directly from the email he received:
Using [a nearly identical drone] to the fallen Hermes 450, several months ago IAF…drones also failed in Azerbaijan. [They were] using the Azery Hermes control units with some temporary modifications [paralleling those of] Israeli drones signals. The training exercise failed after similar concerns of successful Iranian penetration were raised.
Again, Silverstein immediately published completely fabricated information.
Well, evidently, shortly after these two posts, he was being ridiculed on the Israeli forum ‘Fresh’, and finally realized he had no choice but to admit that he published erroneous information. In a post titled ‘The Art of the con’, Silverstein wrote:
After the latest crash, I received an anonymous e-mail from someone purporting to be an insider who knew about the crashes and the reasons for them
This is extremely misleading. The ‘source’ didn’t establish his credentials.
The Israeli security forum, Fresh, began to post material about the story with a link to my post. At a later point, a forum Admin posted a notice that I had received an e-mail from a source they knew and they predicted what the message said and what I would write in my post. If I had seen that Fresh posting I would’ve known of the fraud earlier and stopped using this source.
Again, you have to wonder why Silverstein even considered this anonymous person to be a “source” in the first place.

With his usual disregard for truth and responsibility, Richard Silverstein posted this story and photo (see above) from the never reliable Middle East Monitor. Trying in his own little (very little) way to provoke a Third Intifada.
In his latest dingbat Facebook post Silverstein proclaims it “A schandeh!” that “this Negev mosque” was demolished by “IDF bulldozers”. Problem is that “this Negev mosque” is not now and was never in the Negev and it was never destroyed by IDF bulldozers. It may have once stood in Angola or maybe Gaza. Whatever happened to the Mosque, or why; it most certainly occurred before 2009 and had nothing to do with whatever the unreliable Middle East Monitor posits is going on in the Negev.
A fictitious news story from a specious source in the hands of a mendacious man can be a very dangerous thing.

As previously described, Seattle blogger Richard Silverstein is a virulent hater of Israel who stoops to very low levels in attacking people with whom he disagrees. Two notable examples are Chloe Valdary, a black female college student who has the audacity to be pro-Israel and Ayaan Hirsi Ali. In the case of the former, Silverstein likens her to Uncle Tom and refers to her as a “Negro”, a term he use derisively against other blacks he doesn’t like. In this case of Ali, he calls her an Islamophobe ignoring the fact that she lived as a Muslim. He refers to most of her claims regarding her life story as “all fiction”.
I caught up with this character on his blog, Tikun Olam, when he posted a series of pieces lately attacking Ali, whom he went after during the Brandeis controversy. Below is his piece and the reader thread where I weigh in. Note that he twice deleted my comments for some rule violation (which appears to be effectively refuting him). I have long noted that Israel bashers usually have very strict rules when it comes to debate. I’s a form of stacking the deck.

Over the years, quite a few mainstream media organisations have been taken in by various notoriously imaginative ‘scoops’ published by the American anti-Zionist blogger Richard Silverstein.
Readers may recall that in August 2012 (before the launch of BBC Watch), the BBC joined those dubious ranks by publishing two written items on its website based on Silverstein’s false claim to have acquired a “briefing document” which allegedly detailed Israel’s plans to attack Iran “sometime before November 6th [2012]“, as he told the BBC in an additional audio interview with the World Service which is appended to both reports.
This latest row certainly reinforces the impression that insufficient critical thinking was employed by the BBC before the use, promotion and amplification of material from a source with a clear political agenda.

And there is so much more about this guy.
Drk I suggest if you’re going to use the information from another source similar to your own, you confirm the information for yourself first.
As previously mentioned I would not be surprised if the killers of this young innocent boy did do what is claimed. My concern is raising the hatred even further by inflaming the situation without factual evidence.
He still remains the original source of this claim. You are the only other one to promote it, and some other quoting you or he, and we all know what you can do with truth !!!!!
Sorry Doc, I know you hate the Zio’s to the point of wrting whatever without truth backing you up. Truth is all we have, please don’t lower yourself to the Zio level in this fight. You may think we need to but we don’t.
