Horowitz Freedom Center Targets BDS Supporters with Campus Poster Campaign


Posters allege BDS activists have “allied themselves with Palestinian terrorists” and “perpetrate... Jew hatred on this campus.”

Visit Stop the Jew Hatred on Campus.

The David Horowitz Freedom Center claimed credit today for posters that appeared on the campus of UC-Santa Barbara attacking the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel as a “Hamas-inspired genocidal campaign to destroy the world’s only Jewish state” and naming individual students and faculty members who promote BDS on the Santa Barbara campus.  David Horowitz, President of the Freedom Center, commented, “We’ve decided to get up close and personal with merchants of Jew hatred on our campuses.”

Several versions of the posters were hung on campus late last night in a guerilla campaign to draw attention to the problem of Jew hatred at UCSB. In addition to defining the BDS movement as a genocidal campaign to wipe out Israel, one poster names a number of prominent campus BDS activists and states, “The following students and faculty at UC Santa Barbara have allied themselves with Palestinian terrorists to perpetrate BDS and Jew Hatred on this campus.” [more...]

The Last Goodnight By Pulitzer Prize Nominated Author


A World War II Story of Espionage, Adventure, and Betrayal
 
By Howard Blum
New York Times Bestselling author of Dark Invasion

Film rights already optioned by Columbia Pictures, The Last Goodnight: A World War II Story of Espionage, Adventure, and Betrayal is Vanity Fair contributing editor and New York Times bestselling author Howard Blum's latest work - an international political WWII biography. Already a political and social science bestseller, The Last Goodnight is the story of international spy, Betty Pack who paved the way for women who now have an increasing role in the CIA.

Betty Pack was an American debutante who parlayed her charm, intelligence, and sexual largesse into an impressive career as a spy. In The Last Goodnight, Blum tells the all-but-forgotten story of this "Mata Hari from Minnesota" (Time), whose bravery, sense of adventure-and often fluid morality-knew few bounds. Drawing on a trove of previously untapped papers-including Betty's own dictated testimony-Blum gives us a riveting account of the double life and clandestine work of a woman who OSS chief general "Wild Bill" Donovan called "the greatest unsung heroine" of WWII.

Blum shapes the narrative around Betty's last hurrah-her 1963 reconnection with a wartime colleague Harford Montgomery Hyde, who would become her biographer and, inevitably, her lover. Betty knew she was dying, but yearned to escape the boredom of a second marriage lived out in near isolation in the Pyrenees. Working with Hyde allowed her to recall her glory days, which play out beyond the imaginings of even the finest espionage thriller writer.
 
Using the code name "Cynthia," Betty would become a major intelligence asset. She thought nothing of seducing men of influence and power to gain access to codes, ciphers, and secrets. She obtained Polish notebooks that proved key to Alan Turing's success deciphering the "unbreakable" messages sent by Germany's Enigma machines, secured Italian naval ciphers (by seducing an Italian Naval attache) that helped the Royal Navy triumph over Mussolini's forces at sea, and snuck into the French Embassy in Washington to break into a safe and photograph Vichy naval codes.

In an interview Howard Blum can discuss:
  • * Betty Pack's many contributions, most notably how she was directly responsible for obtaining the Polish notebooks that were key to Alan Turing's success in  deciphering the "unbreakable" messages sent by Germany's Enigma machines.
  • * How Betty Pack was a pioneer. Today, Forty percent of CIA operatives are women, including the Deputy Director and other top officials. The former head of MI-6 is a woman. Betty Pack came before all of them.
  • * The importance of human intelligence - field operatives - in this era of primarily electronic intelligence. It was spies like Betty Pack who demonstrated the value of a liberated agent, and now the agencies are finally getting around to recruiting a new generation of operatives who are not reluctant to express their own concepts of personal freedom.
In the wake of the Brussels and other recent terror attacks, our government is realizing the need for the nation to rely once again on individual secret agents (human intelligence) rather than electronic means to get intelligence even in this modern age of terror. We need, the CIA is now saying, to be able to do what we did in the past - to infiltrate covert operators into the enemy camp, and Betty Pack is a prime (and extraordinary) example of how successful a single operative can be.
"A dazzling masterwork of narrative nonfiction. Howard Blum has vividly captured the extraordinary life of a passionate, complicated, thoroughly modern woman who did nothing less than help win World War II."                   
--Mitchell Zuckoff, New York Times bestselling author


About the Author: Howard Blum is the author of New York Times bestsellers including Dark Invasion, the Edgar Award - winner American Lightning, as well as Wanted!, The Gold Exodus, Gangland, and The Floor of Heaven. Blum is a contributing editor at Vanity Fair. While at the New York Times, he was twice nominated for a Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting.

David Horowitz Freedom Center Launches Campaign to Combat Jew Hatred

David Horowitz Freedom Center Launches Campaign to Combat Jew Hatred at American Colleges and Universities

New Initiative Will Refute Genocidal Lies About Israel Which Fuel Anti-Semitism on Campus

Citing a large and disturbing rise in anti-Semitic incidents on American college campuses, the David Horowitz Freedom Center today announced that it is launching a new campaign to counter Jew hatred at the nation’s colleges and universities.

On college campuses across America, hatred and bigotry directed at Jews is at an all time high. From swastikas appearing on Jewish fraternity houses to mock “apartheid walls” which disseminate mendacious Hamas propaganda, from anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions resolutions to angry and sometimes violent attempts to shut down pro-Israel speakers, America’s universities have become a new fount of Jew hatred which then leeches into our broader culture. Despite their rush to accommodate other campus minorities, American universities have done little or nothing to protect the Jewish students under their charge.

This Jew hatred is fomented by campus organizations—most notably Students for Justice in Palestine— that support the terrorist regimes in Gaza and the West bank who spread lies about the Jewish state. Chief among these lies is the claim that the Jews “stole” Arab land to create the state of Israel.

The lie that Jews are responsible for the theft of Arab land is regarded as a universal truth by many students on campuses across the nation, leading these students to shun and condemn Jews, as well as those who dare to defend Israel, for this supposed crime. To take just one example, UCLA student Lisa Marie Mendez, who is also an employee at the UCLA Medical Center, recently wrote on social media:

“F**king Jews. GTFOH with all your Zionist bullshit. Crazy ass f**king troglodyte albino monsters of cultural destruction. F**king Jews. GTFOH with your whiny bullshit. Give the Palestinians back their land, go back to Poland or whatever freezer-state you’re from, and realize that faith does not constitute race.”

This view of Jews as the thieves of Palestinian land is far from rare, and translates into a growing hostility towards Jews on American campuses. A recent study from the Brandeis Center for Human Rights found that more than half of nearly 1,200 Jewish students surveyed at 55 campuses nationwide reported having experienced or witnessed anti-Semitism on campus during the last year.

Stop the Jew Hatred on Campus will confront the agents of this anti-Semitism by refuting the four primary and genocidal lies about the Jewish state spread by Palestinian terrorists and their campus allies which underpin the modern architecture of Jew hatred. These lies include the claims that Israel occupies Palestinian land and that Israel is an apartheid state. These lies and rebuttals to them may be found on the campaign Web site: www.StoptheJewHatredonCampus.org.

Students at campuses across the nation will participate in the campaign by holding teach-ins to raise student awareness about Jew hatred and anti-Semitism, and to combat the genocidal Hamas propaganda which has become a familiar presence on American campuses.

These teach-ins will feature speakers including David Horowitz, Daniel Pipes, Richard Cravatts and others who can expose the truth about Jew hatred on campus and the steps we must take to thwart it. Participating students may also distribute literature including the Freedom Center pamphlets: Big Lies: Demolishing the Myths of the Propaganda War Against Israel and Why Israel is the Victim, organize campus film screenings, participate in poster campaigns, and hold silent vigils outside the campus offices of Students for Justice in Palestine (one of the chief instigators of campus Jew hatred) to raise awareness of these pressing concerns. These events will be concentrated during the week of March 7-11, but may also occur throughout the spring semester.


“In order to win the campus war against Israel and the Jews, our first task must be to subvert the malicious and genocidal lies that form the basis of the pro-Hamas and anti-Israel propaganda on American campuses,” stated Freedom Center founder and chairman David Horowitz. “Campus Jew-haters have been hiding their true intentions behind a false front of humanitarianism by claiming that Israel is an ‘apartheid’ state that oppresses the Palestinians.  Our campaign will reveal these lies as Hamas propaganda and expose the baseless Jew hatred, absent all noble intentions, which lies at the heart of anti-Israel activism on campus.”

The David Horowitz Freedom Center, founded in 1989, is a not-for-profit organization located in Los Angeles, California. The Center is a School of Political Warfare whose mission is to identify the enemies of free societies like America and Israel, and devise ways to defeat them. To carry out this mission, the Center publishes Frontpagemag.com, JihadWatch.org and TruthRevolt.com. These sites are visited by more than 3 million readers per month. The Center also operates a website, DiscoverTheNetworks.org, which is an encyclopedia of the political left that receives more than 6 million visits per year. The Center operates a number of other programs including, the Israel Security Project run by Caroline Glick, the Individual Rights Foundation and the campaign, www.StoptheJihadonCampus.org. The Center is currently publishing a nine-volume series by David Horowitz called The Black Book of the American Left. [more...]

Great News for America by Dr. Gerard Lameiro, Ph.D.

Great News for America
The Constitution, Freedom and Prosperity are Coming Back
By Gerard Lameiro, Ph.D.


Destined to be a #1 bestseller, Great News for America by Dr. Gerard Lameiro is written from the heart of its author to the hearts, souls and minds of all Americans.  Unlike so many doom-and-gloom books coming out about the future of America, this is a refreshing, enthusiastic, optimistic and hope-filled vision for America's future.  Great News for America has already been hailed as a "much needed alarm clock for Americans' drowsiness and despair." 

Written by author, philosopher, economist and engineer, Dr. Lameiro, "the greatest practitioner of the pep talk," Great News for America is just the pep talk Americans are yearning for in today's progressively pessimistic and politically correct environment.  Early reactions are broadcasting the fact that this book is aligned with the mood, sentiment and hopes of Americans.  It is sure to be the #1 presidential election book of this election year and a must-read for those with real interest in the highly anticipated presidential election.

Great News for America defines the current events and what is fueling the moral outrage of Americans in the new Conservative era.  What are the national and economic security issues adding to the moral outrage of Americans?  Why is this presidential election truly the battle for America's future?  Great News for America makes ten surprising predictions that are bold and powerful - stunning predictions about America and the 2016 presidential election and how the impact of these predictions, will, in fact, go far beyond this election.  This book predicts some historic events for America that will take place before, during and after the 2016 presidential election which will positively impact America for decades to come.

In Great News for America, you'll discover how...
  • Millions of new voters will vote for the first time in the 2016 presidential election, resulting in an historic voter turnout (both in numbers and percentage terms); 
  • The 2016 presidential election will be a landslide election with the winner dominating the popular and Electoral College results;
  • The Republican Party (as we know it) will end with the 2016 presidential election;
  • The Democratic Party (as we know it) will end with the 2016 presidential election;
  • The mainstream media's influence on presidential elections (as we know it) will end with the 2016 presidential election;
  • How the new president-elect can accelerate their transition team; and, more importantly
  • How fast it will take...
  • To repeal Obama's Executive Orders;
  • To repeal Obama's Iran Nuclear Executive Agreement;
  • To secure our borders;
  • To repeal Obamacare;
  • To repeal ObamaNet;
  • To create a booming economy;
  • ...and so much more!
It's time for an optimistic vision for America.  Dr. Lameiro's common sense solutions to the issues facing America will inspire his audience to get out and be a part of the most important election of our lifetime.  He'll tell you what the two most important things you can do and how to eliminate voter fraud.  It's the end of the era of the mainstream media's influence and time for rediscovering morality, freedom, peace and prosperity in the new Conservative era.

More a State of the Union draft speech for a new, conservative president than a simple book.  Gerard Francis Lameiro discusses almost every threat we face -- from Obama's executive orders to the danger of an EMP.  He lays out good solutions, frames the historical debate, and delivers a well thought out critique of all that ails us. 
                         --Dick Morris, Former Clinton Advisor
