The despicable Larry Derfner
Mrs. Carl said this morning that she wants to cancel the JPost subscription. We never read it in hard copy except on the Sabbath anyway, and they won't let you have a Sabbath only subscription, so why bother. This despicable article by Larry Derfner (Hat Tip: Shy Guy) is the sort of thing that I would expect to see in Haaretz (which is why I don't have a subscription to Haartez). It will make me cancel the Post subscription much sooner. And cancel it altogether.ISRAEL’S CHAMPIONS in this affair are focusing on the Bilal ibn Rabah Mosque at Rachel’s Tomb, saying it didn’t exist until the 1990s, their point being that Rachel’s Tomb belongs to Jews and Jews alone.The reason it matters is that the Arabs deny any Jewish connection to this land. They claim we are interlopers who expelled the 'natives' from 'their' land. When the likes of UNESCO take a Jewish site like Rachel's tomb and turn it into a Muslim site, they are telling the world that the land belongs to the Muslims. The Jews? They were here centuries ago, say UNESCO, the 'Palestinians' and Larry Derfner. They're ancient history.
My point is this: Who cares when the Bilal ibn Rabah Mosque was built? If UNESCO is saying Rachel’s Tomb is holy to three religions, why do we have to insist that’s it’s only holy to one, to our religion?
And even if it’s true that the Palestinians only put up a mosque at Rachel’s Tomb to compete with the Jewish claim to the site, we Jews have been doing the same thing to them all over this country. Muslims destroyed Jewish synagogues and cemeteries? Israel destroyed Muslim mosques and cemeteries.
Read the whole thing.

Folks, cancel your JPost subscriptions and stop feeding Larry Derfner and company.
If you simply buy the JPost's Friday edition, have some principles and just say no. You'll live without reading Greer Fay Cashman's gossip columns. It's easier than you think.
Read what you have to read on the JPost's website and just get used to not contributing to enemy publications anymore. You know you can do it.
And when the JPost's subscription department calls you up (and they will eventually - whether in a week, month or few months time), tell them loud and clear that if you wanted to buy an anti-Semitic radical left-wing English language Israeli paper, you might as well go with the classic: Ha'Aretz.
For quite some time now, the JPost is not that much different than Ha'Aretz. Show them how you feel about that by shutting your wallet to them.
Please forward this information to any friends and acquaintances who subscribe to or buy the JPost.
Tizku l'mitzvot!
I'm reminded of last week's Latma TV segment about the world being a mosque.
Larry Derfner has proven satire has nothing over real life, which is even more absurd.
