Coins found in Israel building from 1,650 years ago speak volumes about Israel and the Jews

There is a building in the Israel town of Lod where a cache of coins were discovered dating back 1,650 years. Evidently, the person who lived there so long ago, left silver and bronze coins under the floorboards of the building and probably planned to go back and collect them at a later date. [H/T Jerusalem Post.]

The Lod Municipality and the Israel Antiquities Authorities (IAA) discovered the coins by chance while performing excavations of a destroyed Jewish public building. 

Experts said the coins are evidence of the last Jewish revolt against Roman rule in Israel – 1,650 years ago.

The dramatic discovery is the first-ever evidence in Lod from the Gallus Revolt, the last Jewish resistance against Roman rule, between 351 and 354 CE.

So this should give pause to those useful idiots who claim the Jews are occupying land belonging to so-called Palestinians, since they were there before Muhammed called his warriors together. But useful idiots will be useful idiots.

The coins are dated from 221- to 354 CE. It seems as if they were deliberately placed under the floorboards in the hopes of the owner returning to take them when the rebellious situation cooled down.

Though there is very little written evidence about this revolt, there are texts reporting that major Jewish communities such as Lod, Zipori and Tiberias were destroyed by the forces of Roman Caesar Flavius Constantinus Gallus.

The building where the coins were discovered

Beside finding coins, other impressive items were found such as stone and marble artifacts; Greek, Hebrew, and Latin inscriptions, and one inscription bearing the name of a Jewish man from a priestly family that is still being examined. 

What the excavators didn't find was the presence of pig bones because, unlike the Romans, the Jewish people are kosher and don't eat pork, a practice usurped by Islam thousands of years later, calling it halal.

Pork banned from federal prisons: Inshallah

Pigs and pork products are forbidden in Islam. Of course, they've been unkosher for thousands more years by Jewish law, but that didn't count. Now we have a so-called president who is removing pig products from federal prison menus because suddenly, inmates don't like bacon etc.

And if you believe inmates don't like pork or bacon, you probably also believe that pigs can fly.

Naturally, the pork industry is upset over this move by a president whose sympathies seem more in line with his father's religion than the one he claims to follow, but I won't "Alex Jones" you with any of that--believe what you want.

The ham ban began at the beginning of the month, imposed by the federal Bureau of Prisons that handles over 200,000 inmates. According to a probable phony survey, prisoners have not listed pork products as a preference. I suspect we're going to see more lobster, caviar and steak being served if prisons are out to cater to the tastes of inmates.

"Why keep pushing food that people don't want to eat?" asked Ed Ross, a spokesman for the prison bureau, speaking to The Washington Post. He claims that "Pork has been the lowest-rated food by inmates for several years."

He may be correct, but my stomach tells me differently. Even the pork industry couldn't believe the survey as they responded: Seriously, who doesn't like bacon?"

I'll tell you who doesn't like bacon. People who never tried it, those whose religion forbids it, and vegetarians who love animals but believe that abortion has something to do with women's health.

In an interesting article in Wikipedia, the issue of religion in prison is discussed and while the number of incarcerated Muslims is relatively small, it is significant when considering the relative size of the Islamic population is in the United States. The other religious group that bans pork, the Jews, is tiny compared to the Catholics, Protestants and Muslims.

A spokeperson for the National Pork Producers Council (NPPC) said "We find it hard to believe that a survey would have found a majority of any population saying, 'No thanks, I don't want any bacon." 

And they are not ruling out legal action. 

There are 547,800 jobs at stake, $22.3 billion in wages, and a $39 billion contribution to the GDP.

Celebrating the ban

The Fort Worth Star Telegram claims that there have been some concerns from the families of inmates and the move had to do with Muslim and Jewish dietary restrictions. 

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) a front group for the Muslim Brotherhood and other terrorist organizations (that enjoy White House visits) said they are not behind the pork ban, but they are glad it has been imposed.

So while CAIR denies their involvement in the new pork ban, it might be someone higher up the political ladder that had the ban imposed.

Any guesses?

Holder MIA from Unity March

Paris held a unity march today to show solidarity in the West for freedom of expression. Islamic terrorists tried to show the world that insulting the prophet of Islam (a guy who at 52 married a 6 year old child and consummated the marriage three years later) will get you killed. The "brother in arms" of the two who killed 12 people involved with the Charlie Hebdo incident, killed shoppers at a Kosher (the Jewish version the Muslims took from them and called halal) supermarket. 

Je suis sur le telephone 

Both of these incidents are not only related through the relationship the gunmen had with each other, but with the relationship that Islamic terrorists see in the Koran and Hadith, aka Islamic scripture.

There were heads of 40 countries at the unity march. French President Hollande, British Prime Minister David Cameron (you remember he claimed that Islam is a religion of peace and all that stuff), Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Germany's Angela Merkel, and even Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Okay, so Abbas and Netanyahu didn't hold hands and kiss each other on the cheek, but they both stood out in front of the dignitaries and showed solidarity with them.

Barack Hussein Obama was not among the world leaders in attendance at the unity march, and for very good reason--he is not a world leader. He isn't even a good manager.

Instead, Department of Justice Attorney General, Eric Holder, was  sent to Paris in Barack's place. Only Holder was nowhere to be seen in the group of world leaders. There were nobody from our government showing the West that the United States of America stands with you in this fight against the attempted destruction of Western civilization. No one reportedly showed up from Congress either.

Some estimates said that a million people were there; some claim about 700 thousands. Only Holder was assigned to attend the terrorism meeting and he was nowhere to be seen with the main group of leaders.

Speaking from Paris over an absent chin, Holder said that there isn't  "any credible information" to determine which terrorist group is responsible for the Paris attacks.

I know with absolute certainty who did it. I just don't believe Holder or Obama want to actually discuss who the responsible terrorist group is, but I'll say it anyway:

Where's Waldo Holder?

The group responsible for the slaughter of the Charlie Hebdo cartoonists and policewoman, and the other man responsible for killing shoppers at the Kosher supermarket were from the same group. They were from a group called radical Muslims.

Does it really matter that one group follows ISIS and the other al Qaeda? One may follow Hamas, Hezbollah, Boko Haram, Abdullah Azzam Brigades, al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, Al-Nusra Front, Al-Shabab, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, Takfir wal-Hijra, Ansar al-Sharia, Ansar al-Islam, Army of Islam, Haqqani network, or even the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. I can go on, but it doesn't make a difference. They all hate the West and they all want to kill us, take us captive, and make sex slaves out of our women as their booty.

Al Qaeda's Yemen branch claims it directed the attack by the two brothers against Charlie Hebdo. The Islamic State is claiming credit for the Kosher supermarket slaughter.

As a lady in a polyester pants suit once said: "What difference does it make, at this point?" I say it doesn't make a difference. It's all the same religion and the names change based on geography and leadership.

Disclaimer: Not all Muslims want to kill us. Many of course wouldn't complain if someone else did the killing instead, but the majority of Muslims are peaceful, and yadda, yadda. 

The peaceful Muslims may forever hate the Jews simply for being born, not even knowing why they're supposed to hate them, but they will not actually go out and kill Jews, burn down synagogues or churches, and do all they can to ensure that the entire world prays to their god and those who don't will pay the jizya tax.

But if only 10% of all 1.7 billion Muslims in the world are willing to make trouble, that's a hell of a lot of Muslims. Some polls indicate the number of Muslims who supported the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks is at least twice as high as that, and many support the atrocities of the Islamic State and other terrorist groups in their "defense of Islam."

People are killed for "insulting Islam." I don't know how an ideology can be insulted. I know how it can be intellectually challenged, but to insult an idea is a non sequitur. To insult means to attack one's feelings or emotions about an issue. Islam isn't a living thing--it's a geopolitical philosophy born from war and conquest. The theological premises of Islam are so weak that one can be put to death for even questioning it.

How weak is that?
