Josh Trevino writes for al-Guardian... for ten days
One of the sharper pundits I follow on Twitter is Texan Josh Trevino. Trevino, a former speechwriter for George W. Bush, was recently hired by al-Guardian to write on their Comment is Free page. He lasted ten days. The moonbats went wild. The main complaint of all Treviño’s critics is the now-famous flotilla-related tweet by Treviño in June 2011 – 106 characters which, according to Abunimah and his anti-Zionist friends, represent “incitement to murder:”Read the whole thing.The hypocrisy of this group of hardcore Israel-haters and apologists for Islamist extremists — who comically wear the mantle of “anti-racists” — is staggering.Dear IDF: If you end up shooting any Americans on the new Gaza flotilla -- well, most Americans are cool with that. Including me.
None of these sensitive souls was the least bit bothered by “Comment is Free” publishing, for instance, Azzam Tamimi – who supports suicide bombing against Israelis. Indeed, in 2011, Guardian editors published a letter by a UK professor explicitly endorsing, on ethical grounds, deadly terrorist attacks by Palestinians on Israeli civilians — a decision which was later defended by Guardian readers’ editor Chris Elliott.
And none of those protesting Treviño’s appointment have seen fit, of course, to object to the fact that the Guardian has repeatedly published articles by Hamas leaders

The Guardian recently hired 'American' Glenn Greenwald who has a long and well documented history and admits it, of supporting Neo Nazi causes. He also opposed the Green movement in Iran, he opposes the 'rebels' in Syria, the toppling of Gaddafi. He loves everything Wikileaks and Ecuadoran, Venezuelan, Cuban and Bolivian, often calls for the entire US government to be tried for war crimes, is a rabid Obama opponent and vocal supporter of al Qaeda. And of course is an antisemite.
Obligatory: Pat Condell: The ugliest newspaper in Britain
According to a journalist on Al Jazeera (who motivated the petition to oust Trevino) the appointment of Joshua was a sign the Guardian was returning to its Zionist roots.
Empress Trudy,
Greenwald is an Obama opponent? (I don't read him anyway).
Check this one out:

Someone I've known for a long time (not Jewish, but is a Dem) posted that on his Facebook. Dude. But anything goes to divert from the economy and the international affairs fiasco, I guess. They also have a twitter account you can follow. Are the Yiddish speakers among us all in for this? Or will they show a backbone and object?
And at the bottom of the page, it says "Donate to a Mensch", and goes here:
