Speaking of Code Pink



This is the brief exchange I had with the approximately three women who carried the Code Pink banner in the Gaza Freedom March on December 27. Added bonus: you can see the guy with the Hezbollah flag at the end.

This is what you hear on the video:

Me: What does that say? Underneath?

Code Pink: The Arabic? I'm not sure.

Me: Oh, okay.

Code Pink: Probably a repeat.

Me: Probably.

(Can you tell from my voice that I was unconvinced? I'd want to know for certain before I marched with something in another language.)

Hezbollah flag at Gaza Freedom March, Toronto



Note: These video clips were shot at different times during the Gaza Freedom March in Toronto on December 27, 2009. This man was clearly a part of the march. In the last clip, you can see that he ended up fairly close to the front of the march (note his proximity to Mr. Palestine House).

P.S. Did he tell me to "piss off" after I asked him about the flag? I can't quite make it out.

Mr. Palestine House walked at the front of the parade



Just in case Palestine House claims never to have seen this man (seen here waving both the "Palestinian" and Hezbollah flags simultaneously) before, here he is leading the parade.

In the bottom photo, that's Rafeef Ziadah of Palestine House on the truck leading the chants.

(Click to enlarge.)

Update: Thanks to macondo for pointing out Mr. Palestine House's appearance on this video taken at the January 3rd anti-Israel hate orgy (pay attention at the 1:08 and 2:00 marks). When I saw him on Sunday, I knew he looked familiar. I wonder where else I've seen him?

Nazi salutes at the Gaza Freedom March





Read what the stick says in the second photo from the top: Palestine House.

Gee, maybe it's time someone started looking into whether or not Palestine House receives government funding.

If you look at the bottom two photos here, you will see that these sieg-heilers were standing directly across from the (mostly Jewish) pro-Israel counter-protesters.

Update: Blazing Cat Fur has info on Palestine House's substantial government funding, plus a photo of the same man waving both the "Palestinian" flag and the Hezbollah flag at the same time.

What's that on his necklace?

Does Peggy Nash know she was so ably represented?




Sartorial splendor




Moths to a flame





Like moths to a flame, some of the Israel-haters felt compelled to get as close as possible to the Zionists.

It's Arabic

My conversation with one of the women holding the banner for Code Pink's Canadian delegation (which looked like a grand total of three women):

Me: "What does it say on the bottom of the banner there?"

CP'er: "What? Where?"

Me (pointing): "There. What does that say?"

CP'er: "Oh, that's Arabic. I don't know. Maybe it's a repeat or something."
