Jewish Preppers?

Some people finding our website may be wondering what is a Prepper and why does it have a religious affiliation? Well the short answer is...A Prepper is the modern day survivalist. It's not (necessarily) a right-wing militiaman preparing for Armageddon in the boondocks of Montana. But better represented by a normal, educated, middle class individual perhaps living in the most urban of cities, preparing themselves physically and mentally for any upcoming disaster, natural or man-made. This could include anything from earthquakes to volcanic eruptions, social unrest to an act of terrorism. Preparations include: food supply, medical supply, weapons supply etc. and the knowledge and skills to use them. Of course, a Jewish Prepper is just a designation for a small niche of the Prepper Community that is of the Jewish Faith. We are non-profit and nonpartisan. Enjoy!

AFDI/SIOA CALLS FOR BOYCOTT OF URBAN OUTFITTERS "AUSCHWITZ" SHIRTS AND ANTI-JEWISH CLOTHING, STOP URBAN'S JEW-HATRED AGITPROP

Memo to Urban Outfitters management: fire the Jew-Haters who keep creating pieces destined to incite to violence and genocide.
Condemn Auschwitz chic -- join the Facebook pageUrban Outfitters t-shirt
The norming of evil. As the depraved left tightens its chokehold on the culture, the media, arts, and popular culture in general reveal to us their true face -- monsters. This is how Hitler and his lovers overtook a country...... incrementally, step by step, mainstreaming hate, dehumanization and genocide via the culture. This is the MBO of the left/Islamic coalition in America. The banality of evil.
American clothing company Urban Outfitters is selling a holocaust T-shirt bearing the Jewish star that Jews were forced to wear by the Nazis in death camps. This Urban Outfitters T-shirt is  labeled "Auschwitz chic" and retails for $100. The “patchwork Star of David on the left breast pocket goes back to 1930s and 40s Europe.” The “vintage yellow color” of the shirt is Nazi yellow -- obvious to students of Nazi Germany. This is just another in a long line from the antisemitic Urban Outfitters of Jew-hating clothing pieces using monstrous iconography. The latest Jew-hatred fashion follows on the heels of Arafat's war scarf (the keffiyeh) is this Auschwitz tee shirt. The store also generated anger in 2004 with a shirt bearing the words “Everybody Loves a Jewish Girl,” surrounded by dollar signs and shopping bags.

Why prep? Please see the previous entry and add this to the list. This is in addition to the cooler-headed economic reasons.

From: http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journalism/2012/04/18/Media-Matters-Boehlert-Anti-Semitism

"Two weeks ago, Media Matters for America (MMFA) quasi-parted ways with anti-Semitic Senior Foreign Policy Fellow MJ Rosenberg, who was fond of labeling pro-Israel Jews “Israel firsters.” This PR maneuver was designed to stifle mounting criticism of MMFA’s anti-Jewish propagandizing, and its close association with the Obama administration.

Unfortunately, the problem doesn’t end with MJ Rosenberg.

Senior Fellow Eric Boehlert, one of the faces of the organization, has a dicey record when it comes to Israel and the Jews. On September 11, 2001, he wrote a piece for Salon.comdefending American Muslims from the supposed anti-Muslim hysteria brewing. In that piece, he recounted a Muslim rally in Paterson, New Jersey:

"We won't rest until all the Jews are dead," said a burly young man. "Shame on America," said another bitter-faced youth. "For helping Israel to kill Palestinians," said a third.

In the wake of the WTC attacks, however, those brash sentiments were muted.

“We won’t rest until all the Jews are dead” is not a “brash sentiment.” It is openly genocidal anti-Semitism. But not to Eric Boehlert, apparently.

Boehlert’s bias in favor of anti-Jewish terrorists didn’t stop there. In 2002, he wrote a piece for Salon.com in which he lamented the fate of Professor Sami Al-Arian, former North American head of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. This is the same Al-Arian who proclaimed, “God cursed those who are sons of Israel … Those people, God made monkeys and pigs … Let us damn America, let us damn Israel, let us damn them and their allies until death.” When Al-Arian was suspended from his teaching post at Florida Atlantic University, Boehlert defended Al-Arian as an “innocent professor.”

As for mainstream media coverage of Israel – which is almost universally skewed against Israel – Boehlert thinks that the media coverage isn’t anti-Israel enough. “I don’t think it’s a surprise to suggest the Middle East conflict is essentially told through the eyes of Israel,” Boehlert said in 2006. About the Israel-Lebanon conflict in 2006, he added, “I think sometimes in the last couple of weeks, it's sort of gone beyond that and I think what also is not acknowledged is that there's extraordinary political pressure in the United States to tell this story from a certain narrative and journalists who don't, get attacked and it's unpleasant and I think it affects the coverage.” In other words, the Jews are pressuring the journalists.

The position that the press is biased toward Israel is a longstanding Boehlert favorite. In 2002, he penned a piece for Salon.com decrying the pro-Jewish slant of the New York Sun, scolding, “the paper’s primary passions are clearly Israel and Jewish causes.” This was Boehlert’s drumbeat at Salon.com: the press was too favorable to the Jewish State.

No doubt that’s what prompted Media Matters to hire Boehlert in the first place. As we will be exposing, Media Matters is choc-a-bloc with MJ Rosenberg ideological clones. And that’s no coincidence."


Screw Media Matters. May history treat them appropriately.


Also floating out there .... from market-ticker.org:


Three months ago, in his State of the Union speech, President Obama announced a new task force to investigate mortgage fraud and bring some measure of relief to the 12 million American families who are either losing their homes or in danger of losing them.

The new Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities Working Group would be co-chaired by New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, U.S. Attorney John Walsh of Colorado and three Washington insiders from the Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Obama said, “This new unit will hold accountable those who broke the law, speed assistance to homeowners and help turn the page on an era of recklessness that hurt so many Americans.”

So what has happened?

Tuesday, calls to the Justice Department’s switchboard requesting to be connected with the working group produced the answer, “I really don’t know where to send you.” After being transferred to the attorney general’s office and asking for a phone number for the working group, the answer was, “I’m not aware of one.”


    So I guess Obama lied to US ... again. And to top it off, he admits to eating, or at least trying, dog meat.
    We have a media interwoven with the current administration and they both lie about the economy and antisemitism inherit in islam. Both important topics to me. And there are so many other 'official lies' coming out of the media and administration. Makes me feel good about zero'ing in my deer rifle last week.
    And this, from occupy wall street:

    #OWS OCCUPY TAMPA POSTS VILE JEW-HATING CARTOON ON HOLOCAUST DAY

    The leftwing Haaretz fails to mention that Muslim Brotherhood groups like CAIR have infiltrated and in some cases systematically taken over various #OWS movements. This is not such a stretch, considering the virulent Jew-hatred rampant on the left. Jew-haters love jihad. Perf.

    What's In A Name?



    Please read Sultankinish’s piece on Sunday, April 15th.


    “George Zimmerman is not on trial because he shot a black teenager during a scuffle. It's not the facts of the case that brought him here. It's his name. Had his last name been Pereira, none of this would have gone anywhere. And it's not the name alone, it's that in this time and place lynching him will help make the political fortunes of everyone from the man in the White House to his cheerful smiling prosecutor who is already counting her campaign cash and book deals.”


    I still hold that there is someone embarressed once they discovered “George Zimmerman” wasn’t some Jewish guy with glasses but of Hispaninc (now White hispanic!) heritage.


    Talk to some of your acquaintances who support Obama and point out that George Zimmerman...


    “has been assigned white team colors, had an NRA badge pinned to his lapel, and is being shoved out into the stadium while the lunatic mob howls for blood. The Emperor of Hope and Change has already made the thumbs down gesture, the courtiers are rushing out to fix the match.”


    NBC was complicit in the fix with their infamous editing. What else have they twisted?


    “Zimmerman wasn't indicted on charges of shooting a man, but of being a racist, of being the living embodiment of American inequality, NRA lawmaking and a dozen other sins. These are not charges that he can ever shake, because they are not legal crimes, they are political crimes.”


    Please read the rest and add the site to your favorites where it should be read often. http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/


    No matter from what direction, the chance of collapse is rising. Rather than allow for the possibility of the deficit, debt, lack of a budget and etc to become the topic of the lamestream media, a guy with a Jewish-sounding name gets demonized. Who or what is next? Will Israel be further demonized by the Left for snuffing Iran’s dreams of a mushroom cloud replacing Tel Aviv? The Left has a great start, palling around with terrorists by calling them oppressed. Even if you call my dog’s tail a leg, she still only has 4 legs. When does the camaraderie between the Left and terrorists transform into a shared open hatred of Jews? Remember that Rabbis were concerned about the high rate of intermarriage and assimilation in pre-Nazi Germany. A few short years later, they had other concerns. The most affluent and advanced nation of its era - recall that German science developed rockets to reach England and during the final months of WWII, put the first jets in the air flying 3 times faster than any Allied propeller-driven airplane . Fortunately, Hitler shunned atomic physics as “Jewish”. Laws were passed, the German psyche somehow changed to allow them to either ignore, allow or participate in the slaughter of millions whose crime was being ‘other’.


    To draw a parallel with America is crazy, no? Despite the attempts to make circumcision illegal in San Fran (see http://abcnews.go.com/Health/san-francisco-vote-circumcision-ban/story?id=13638220#.T4wHX5g7-pE), despite the open-mike gaffe with Sarkosy bemoaning the fact that Ubama is forced to deal with Netanyahu, to have Eric “My people” Holder’s Department of Justice ignoring the illegal activities of the New Black Panthers, well you should know many more examples. From either secular or non-secular vantage points, we as a Nation, are screwed. And what happens to the Jews in a Nation as it circles the drain into failed country bin of history?


    Maybe I’m being paranoid. I should ask George Zimmerman.

    What'chya gonna do?

    First, my take on Zimmerman's treatment: there is someone quite embarrassed at the DoJ after assuming "Zimmerman" would be a white Jewish guy with glasses. Better luck next time.

    Then the Osama, errr, Ubama, oops, Obama administration leaks Israeli secrets vital to kinetic diplomacy (ie bombs) to convince Iran to stop pursuing nuclear weapons. See: http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/03/awful-obama-administration-leaks-information-on-israels-secret-military-alliance-with-azerbaijan-video/


    Obama Administration Lifts Veil on Secret Israel-Azerbaijan Alliance–
    Former UN Ambassador John Bolton blasted the Obama administration today for intentionally leaking information on Israel’s secret military alliance with Azerbaijan. Bolton was on FOX News today to discuss the Obama Administration’s latest attack on Israel.

    According to a Foreign Policy report based on “four senior diplomats and military intelligence officers” Azerbaijan has given Israel permission to land planes on Azeri airfields after an attack on Iranian nuclear sites. The Obama Administration leaked this information putting the alliance in jeopardy and endangering the Israeli nation.

    Patrick Brennan has more on the Obama administration’s back-stabbing at The Corner.

    And, the Jerusalem Post also blamed the Obama Administration for the sensitive leaks.

    ‘Foreign Policy’ claims Azerbaijan granted Israel access to air bases along Iran’s northern border for potential use in strike.

    Leaks regarding Israeli plans to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities continued Thursday, raising suspicion within the political and defense establishment that the Obama administration was intentionally trying to undermine potential military action.

    The first report appeared in Bloomberg and, citing a Congressional Research Service (CRS) report, said that Iran would be able to recover from a military strike against its centrifuge fabrication plants within six months…

    …In another report, Foreign Policy claimed that Azerbaijan had granted Israel access to air bases along Iran’s northern border for potential use in a military strike against Iranian nuclear facilities.

    “The Israelis have bought an airfield,” the report quoted an unnamed US official as saying, “and the airfield is called Azerbaijan.”


    So, IMHO, I wonder if I am seeing, and too close to ignoring, the same things Jews in pre-Nazi Germany ignored. Yes, there are laws and the Constitution protecting Religion: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Now if there is a problem, who enforces it? The current administration? The same folks that sent DoJ officials to prosecute someone they thought was a Jewish man? What happens when there is no prosecuting blatantly illegal behavior, such as inciting to murder as in the New Black Panther Party's $10,000 bounty for Zimmerman "DEAD or alive"?

    Does your synagogue have security? Remember there was already one publicized plot to bomb a synagogue in the Bronx, and then to shoot the survivors as they sought safety. Do you have security for you and yours?

    Are you going to move when it becomes dangerous to be a Jew in your city or neighborhood, like what is happening in Europe? Me, I am American. No hyphen. An American who happens to be Jewish. I am not moving, unless its to cover or concealment.

    Some suggestions, sort of like buying insurance so you don't need it.

    Exercise your second amendment rights to protect your first amendment rights. If you don't know jack about firearms, it may be time to learn. There are plenty of sources.

    You can skip the rest if you don't like thinking about guns. I enjoy guns for two reasons, foremost, to paraphrase Tolkien, I like them for what they protect. My family, my friends, my 'co-religionists', my country.

    I have love/hate relationships with my Glock and 1911 45's. My Glocks are awesome, I bought one used about 15 years ago, put countless rounds through it, and it still functions flawlessly and accurately without any part replacement. Rock solid doesn't come close. Despite being very familiar with it, using it as my EDC (every day carry) for almost 10 years, I still was never comfortable carrying it with one in the tube. Not very useful if you need to rack the slide in an emergency situation. I just couldn't (and can't) get over the lack of a thumb safety. Many can and do. Not me.

    I bought a 1911 (Springfield's Commander) for EDC. Absolutely comfortable carrying it "cocked and locked". Having cut my teeth on a Glock, field stripping the 1911 just sucked - so many little steps, much more difficult. I can field strip my Glock in less than 15 seconds, not so with a 1911. Plus the anemic 7 round magazine, replaced with an 8 round mag, compared to 10 round mag of the Glock (Model 30). The XDM's seem to have the best of both worlds, but I am not about to buy more pistols.

    And rifles. I finally understand a chef's obsession with so many different knives or a woman's obsession with shoes - there is one just perfect for varying situations.

    For those in the North East desiring to learn how to safely use/handle/own a firearm, a good friend in an NRA certified instructor in pistol, rifle and shot gun. Train up and hope you don't need the knowledge and skill. Take your spouse and your kids for their safety and yours.
