Honoring anti-Semites in Berlin
This is actually quite appropriate. It gets all the Jew haters together in one appropriate place.The West-Eastern Divan Orchestra - a troupe made up entirely of Israeli and Arab musicians - was founded in 1999 by the late Palestinian academic Edward Said and the Israeli conductor Daniel Barenboim as a gesture of peaceful coexistence in the Middle East.And the proceeds will go to build a concert hall in Ramallah.
Barenboim, who continues to conduct the group, has called it "the most important musical project" of his life.
The orchestra is scheduled to perform Wagner's "Die Walkuere" on August 23 at Berlin's Waldbuehne - an arena built as part of the complex for the 1936 Olympics by the Nazis.
For those who don't know, Wagner was Hitler's favorite musician and also a notorious anti-Semite. His music was often played as Jews went to the gas chambers There is a ban on playing Wagner in public in Israel, which Barenboim violated several years ago.

This entire article seems to be a bit off. Not that I would debate any of the facts.
But there are WAY MORE EVIL things happening in Germany.
A "Palestinian" Demonstration took place in Düsseldorf the other day where "the Palestinians" were murmuring "death to all Jews".
Some counter protestors (see pics) who held up Israeli and US Flags and were advocating Israels right to exist werde (of course) attacked.

Before that Event:"Berlin- Death to the Jews" they were openly shouting it.

Just my 2 cents to give you a bit more perspective on things in Germany - a mixed Jewish/muslim orchestra that plays Wagner - seriously, if that was our biggest problem, I'd be almost glad.

Addendum:
Concerning the funds that go to Ramallah. That's bad. Still, that's not our main problem on the money side either.
The EU gives the "Palestinians" BILLIONS every year, off which they gladly
a) loaf around not needing to work
b) buying stuff they ought not to have (explosives/etc.)
c) build rockets in their spare time
d) turn their children into hate machines
e) attack Sderot with those rockets
If we were able to dry up these big money sources that would be a big step in the right direction.
Furthermore I believe, that Israel should cut the Power and water supplies to Gaza as long as Sderot is under attack!
I think its appropriate they play Wagner in Germany. You can't understand self-hating Jews and the Arabs without listening to a performance of his music.

Umm... are you aware that on your front page you've got both an article titled "honoring anti-semites" as well as a favourites link to Michelle Malkin?
The Michelle Malkin that is a regular columist for Vdare.
The Vdare site that's good enough to also run feature articles from prominant white supremacists and anti-semites warning the US public about the sneaky jews deceiving the public into allowing immigration of non-whites to change the "ethnic balance" in the US for their own elaborate plans visa vi race.
That Vdare.
No doubt if you actually read Malkin you'll have noticed that the several hundred race hate crimes against jewish interests in the US in the past few years have never qualified as noteworthy or problematic enough to rate a mention on her site, which takes mere minutes to bring you any "terrorist" incident like brown guys buying cell phones in bulk.
Bombing a synagogue... not so much.
What are you missing here ?
Please ignore the anti-Malkin troll named Chris above. Just search Michelle's website for keywords like "jews" and "anti-semitism" and you'll come up with many a relevant pro-Jewish, pro-Israel article, even though those are not the main themes of Michelle's blog.
And if anyone hasn't noticed the obvious, Michelle herself could never qualify as a white supremist. An incovenient truth.
Ms. Malkin is a good person, with good writing and good goals, even if one can't always agree with her 100%.
Well you clearly ignored what I wrote.
If you wanted to dispute what I said you would have searched her blog for what I told you that you wouldn't find there.
Or searched her employer's website at vdare for what I assured you that you could.
I note you did neither.
BTW... Do you think there is such a thing as an anti-semite who refers to themselves as an "anti-semite" and you can just search their website to see if you can catch them calling themselves this ?
Seriously, use your head nimrod.
Whatever, Chris.
Regards to your pals back at the SPLC nuthouse.
