His understanding of 'free speech' is you can say what you want, when you want, to whom you want, whenever you want. Truth need not be any part of the equation. The only people who can do this are children under five and Hummer driving, cigar smoking, high-heeled, libel lawyers - like Levant. From this perspective, 'free speech' is only available to infants, and the rich and powerful.<br /><br />How ironic it is that the folks whose funding will be cut by Kenney's nauseating accusations of 'anti-Semitism' (<a rel="nofollow">http://www.kairoscanada.org/fileadmin/fe/files/PDF/cidacuts/CIDA-PartnerStories.pdf</a>) are precisely those whom KAIROS has been supporting to have free speech, and who have been dying for it.<br /><br />KAIROS recently published this recantation of various erroneous media releases, including Levant's oft repeated, and grossly exaggerated, tale of "website scrubbing".<br /><a rel="nofollow">http://www.kairoscanada.org/fileadmin/fe/files/PDF/cidacuts/CIDAMediaResponse-jan7.pdf</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-59868519591003004182010-01-19T18:15:12.937-05:002010-01-19T18:15:12.937-05:00Re. Rachel Fox, who is repeating NGO Monitors now ...Re. Rachel Fox, who is repeating NGO Monitors now oft repeated hogwash.<br /><br />Other organisations NGO Monitor attacks: Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders, Save the Children, World Vision Canada, Oxfam Canada, etc, etc. NGO Monitor is a joke and KAIROS is in very good company.<br /><br />1)KAIROS has repeatedly been attacked for supporting a boycott, and this has repeatedly been denied by KAIROS. Its position has been constant, was arrived at consensually by all the major Canadian Churches. Divestment is a much more subtle process, and it is irresponsible to assert that anyone deliberating on divestment is 'anti-semitic'.<br /><br />2) the accusation that KAIROS describes Zionism as an "ideology of empire, colonialism, and militarism" is repeated over and over by NGO Monitor, most recently in Embassy magazine. This is also completely false. NGO Monitor is referring to a press release by Sabeel linked to from KAIROS' Resources and Actions page called 'Challenging Christian Zionism'.<br />First off, the quote is from Sabeel, not KAIROS; second, they're talking about *Christian Zionism*, not *Zionism*. If you don't know the difference you need to do a whole lot of research, and quite yapping until you've done it. The second wants a Jewish state, the first wants a Jewish state as a precursor to Armageddon where everyone who ain't Christian gets fried (including Jews who haven't converted). Calling it an "ideology of empire, colonialism, and militarism" is sweet talkin'.<br /><br />3) There is a big difference between boycotting and divestment.<br />Here's their policy, set out long before Jason Kenney's inflammatory statements (he seems to have his tail between his legs now):<br /><a rel="nofollow">http://kairoscanada.org/fileadmin/fe/files/PDF/HRTrade/Pal-Isr/Paper_EconomicAdvocacyMeasures_Jan08.pdf</a><br /><br />4) What a surprise that a disclaimer was added (there were already disclaimers on other projects). When Bozos like NGO Monitor can't tell the difference between KAIROS policy and a Sabeel Press Release, nor the difference between Christian Zionism and Zionism, and then go publicising their ignorance to everyone who will listen, then I guess an organization needs to start making things a little more obvious.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-30098791474806841922010-01-16T05:48:11.210-05:002010-01-16T05:48:11.210-05:00The media portrayal of Israel and the I/P conflict...The media portrayal of Israel and the I/P conflict is the real fraud.<br /><br />Why does our intelligentsia shy away from asking a simple question: "Does the ethnicity of media ownership bias news coverage."LiesOfTheIntellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14246279322940671522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-42844175886653969192010-01-04T16:03:32.158-05:002010-01-04T16:03:32.158-05:00http://ezralevant.com/2010/01/scoop-kaiross-smokin...http://ezralevant.com/2010/01/scoop-kaiross-smoking-antiisra.html<br /><br />Update:<br />Jan 4 2010<br />Ezra has proven it again.<br /><br />Kairos is a fraudRotterdamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06014089653357959792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-557051912472662812009-12-30T16:34:36.749-05:002009-12-30T16:34:36.749-05:00I am glad the government is bringing all this to t...I am glad the government is bringing all this to the attention of the people of Canada.

This resulted in scrutiny of the organization’s advocacy, including its politicized involvement in the Arab-Israeli conflict. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />In response, media statements from KAIROS and its supporters have claimed that there is no evidence that the organization was active in anti-Israel campaigns, such as BDS (boycotts, divestment, and sanctions). This information is inconsistent with information published by KAIROS: <br /><br />1) On January 7, 2008, KAIROS published a “strategy paper” entitled “Economic Advocacy Measures: Options for KAIROS Members for the Promotion of Peace in Palestine and Israel.” This document endorses divestment from Israel, explicitly promoting the campaign in the U.S. Presbyterian Church and led by the radical Palestinian NGO known as Sabeel. The text also describes KAIROS’ plans to coordinate these activities among its member churches.<br /><br />2) KAIROS’ “Resources for education and action” webpage (accessed Dec. 30, 2009) includes material from “KAIROS partner” Sabeel: (a) a call for anti-Israel divestment, and (b) a statement describing Zionism as an “ideology of empire, colonialism, and militarism.”<br /><br />3) Although the KAIROS’ press release (Dec. 18, 2009) asserts that “KAIROS took a public position opposing sanctions and a boycott of Israel,” there is no reference to divestment. Indeed, as seen above, KAIROS is very active in this element of political advocacy.<br /><br />4) Sometime after Dec. 8, 2009 (when NGO Monitor reviewed the website) KAIROS added a disclaimer to its resources page (accessed Dec. 22, 2009): “Note that some of these resources are not written by KAIROS and do not necessarily reflect KAIROS policy.” (Version without disclaimer can be seen on Oct. 15 cache of this page.)Rachel Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06410733875038934661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-3686859236381573012009-12-29T12:00:58.956-05:002009-12-29T12:00:58.956-05:00I find that some Conservative bloggers, who are th...I find that some Conservative bloggers, who are the biggest advocates of free speech, have <i>comment moderation</i> turned on and are likely not to accept the publication of opinions contrary to their own.Skinny Dipperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12818163310102120130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-45494683203918906072009-12-23T14:15:30.896-05:002009-12-23T14:15:30.896-05:00How about "fraudulink"?How about "fraudulink"?robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06557812182283316971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-5370897891332934312009-12-23T11:23:21.408-05:002009-12-23T11:23:21.408-05:00you usually just have to click through a few links...<i>you usually just have to click through a few links to figure out he's bullshitting</i><br /><br />I found the same thing about NGO Monitor, the right wing Israeli NGO watch lobby group Kenney's office has twice claimed to be getting their intel on KAIROS from.
