Jerusalem Post – “Why would the Israelis want to control the world when they are having a hard enough time trying to control themselves? Still, it’s a question worth pondering especially in the age of the Internet and the rise of the Zionist conspiracy called “Facebook.” Let’s “faceit,” Facebook has a very strong Israeli face.

The seven members of the Over 50s coffee morning have been meeting every Tuesday for the past four years without incident at the Eye Library in Eye, near Peterborough, Cambridgeshire. But council officials have now axed the meetings claiming that toddlers from a nearby nursery who use the library at the same time could be injured if hot coffee spilt on them.”
