Israeli right-wing party threatens Brazilian cartoonist

Now guess what! I'm being threatened by Likud, a right wing party in Israel (former party of Sabra and Shatila butcher Ariel Sharon). In their page,
http://www.likudnik.co.il/Front/NewsNet/reports.asp?reportId=171273, my picture and some of my cartoons are shown. Along the same old name-calling (Nazi, anti-Semitic...) they say that "This Carlos should be 'taken care of' long time ago, in some way or another".

"Carlos Latuff
He has a reference in Wikipedia; at Google you can find 8 pages about him. But what does the Foreign Affairs Ministry know about him? The Mossad? The Committee of Foreign Affairs and Security? The Israeli Army? Any other element that deals with Israel's security?
Carlos Latuff - an Arabic family name. Born in Rio de Janeiro, 36 years old. In his homepage he is photographed with Leila Khaled, the terrorist who hijacked an Israeli airplane. He is one of the biggest Israel-haters.
He is the headmaster of one of the biggest factories for propaganda and incitements against Israel, he distributes poison in every place. The damage he's doing to Israel amongst youth around the world is enormous. He is one of the most influential Anti-Zionists in the world wide web, an awesome graphic talent, and a great cartoonist. He knows how to influence and use the internet. He is a top player in the Iranian evil industry, and his cartoons participate in the holocaust denial gallery in Teheran.
He hates America & Israel, his cartoons show Israelis and their rulers as demons. He sends missiles of hatred no less powerful than the missiles that Iran is developing, and he takes part in a gigantic genocide industry, with one goal - the destroying of the Jewish state.
In an impressive video movie, in clear English, he's trying to unite all those who hate Israel. In a movie distributed in the net he asks them to be active and to participate in the struggle on the information front - to write stories & poems, to talkback, to blog, send photos, to participate in meetings and demos, to be active and to unite.
His satanic cartoons are published in the world journals, and in endless number of websites. He does not ask for copyrights and he urges people to use them freely.
And what Israel is doing? Nothing!!!
Did they complain to the Brazilian embassy?
Think what would happen to an Israeli citizen that was exposing the leaders of Brazil in this way. Did anybody try to charge him with incitement and attempted murder? Did anybody hear about him at all??
This is the WMD that Prof. Harari, the ex-headmaster of Weitman institute lectured about in the last Hertzlia convention. This is the danger Prof. Yoav Gelbar is warning in his publicity work. That what brings the heads of the Jewish Congress to Israel this week.
The Israeli carelessness on the information front is not acceptable and can't go on. This Carlos should have been "taken care of" a long time ago, in some way or another. The question is: what should we do, and whose responsibility is it to do so?
I call you all to be active. There is no one institute that can challenge this kind of genocidal war. Not the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, nor the Ministry of Defense, or even any other ministry. We have to unite, as Carlos suggested, and act together.
We are witnessing a systematic & basic way of giving legitimacy to hit the "Zionist demon". Carlos Latuff excels at this kind of propaganda. The problem will be solved - the "final solution" - by the Iranian President, who enjoys those drawings & cartoons, Nazi Germany, Holocaust denial, Hizbullah & its rockets. This is the reason he needs those atomic plants, he needs them to kill all those disgusting creatures that Latuff is drawing, and then the world will be a better place. There were others that tried it before, remember?
Goebbels was the propaganda minister of the 3rd Reich and made propaganda a powerful weapon for the Nazi regime. His basic assumption was that a lie said enough times became truth in the consciousness of people. Now
we know that Hitler wrote his books and then manifested them in the
Holocaust. The things that are said against Israel in internet forums & visual elements are copies of the Nazi propaganda. This is an ideology of genocide that has proven its power in the past."
----------------------
Of course, we can expect anything from IsraHell. If they can carry on "selective killings" of Palestinians, and carpet Beirut with tons of bombs murdering hundreds of civilians, what is the big deal about "neutralizing" one cartoonist in Brazil? Death threats, cheap attempts to terrorize me, however, will not prevent me from supporting Palestinians in their struggle against brutal Israeli occupation. The most that Likud creeps can do is silence me with a bullet, but they will never be able to silence my art.

free passage for jewish terrorists

Before 1939, nazi terrorists enjoyed the same freedoms as jewish terrorists do today. The consequence was, of course, a World War responsible for murder and destruction on a scale previously unseen in Human History.
What is the likelyhood of jewish terrorists murdering Latuff, or people like him? Even now, people like Steven Spielberg are salivating at the thought, offering the services of their cheque-books.
Remember, the jewish holocaust (every major jewish organisation on planet Earth backed the actions of Israel) of Lebanon is just the beginning. The leadership of Israel have already described every non-jew as non-human (or cattle, as their holy book describes us), to be enslaved or destroyed. Demographics mean that these psychopathic cowardly mass murders certainly won't be taking on the 'christian' part of the world directly, regardless of their 'master-race' philosophy (they chose, instead, to believe that the 'christians' are their 'slaves', providing them with weapons, funds, and military protection, so that they may slaughter muslims with impunity).
Israel and its tribe are far from being the greatest evil on this Earth. However, the service they provide to Blair, and the extremist forces in the West are invaluable. Without their assistance, Blair would not have been able to cause the murder of 500,000+ Humans in post-invasion Iraq, for instance.

UNQUOTE
There are moderators on Indymedia UK and Urban75 who could not agree more with this terrorist statement. These people are present on the 'left' as propagandists for 'jewish supremacy' by pushing the vile sick racist position of jewish 'intellectual superiority' by constantly refering to the 'achievements' of people like Lenin and Marx. Nazis did exactly the same thing, of course, by constantly promoting the racial superiority of their group by special reference to THEIR political writers, philosophers, and activists.
There is, of course, just ONE Human Race. This is a simple scientific fact. As such, anyone who pushes the idea of 'superior' (and hence, by definition, 'inferior') 'races' is responsible for the greatest crime a Human may carry out.
Latuff highlights exactly these type of supreme crimes. A 'master race' exterminating other Humans simply because they are NOT part of the 'master race'. A 'master race' doing whatever it can to take power in nations across the globe so that it may accelerate its program of genocide against those it labels as 'cattle'.
The solution is simple. The elimination of the vile racist state of Israel (just as we eliminated the nazi state of Germany, and the apartheid state of South Africa). The trial of EVERY terrorist that ever worked for the state of Israel, or provided ANY assistance to that state. Compensation at LOCKERBIE LEVELS to every victim of Israel. The removal from power across the globe of any and all people and organisations that worked to make the crimes of Israel possible.
YOU HAVE A CHOICE. WORLD WAR 3, AND THE DEATH OF BILLIONS OF HUMANS, OR THE APPLICATION OF JUSTICE TO ISRAEL AND THOSE THAT HAVE WORKED TO ENABLE ISRAEL'S CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.
Blair knows that no-one is going to move to punish his key forces in time. Once their racist insanity is used to trigger World War, their fate is of no interest to Blair, or his true allies. The lesser evil will then perish, but in doing so will have ignited the required fire for the supreme evil.

** PRO-ISRAEL LOBBY TARGETS BBC ONLINE POLL
'Megaphone' lobbyware mobilisation"
By Chris Williams
Published Wednesday 6th September 2006
www.theregister.co.uk/2006/09/06/giyus_megaphone/
BBC History Magazine was forced to remove an online poll after it was targeted by a project aimed at influencing internet opinion in Israel's favour.
The Give Israel Your United Support (GIYUS) website hosts a downloadable desktop tool called Megaphone. The program alerts users to opinion polls and "talkback" features on news sites so they can respond with pro-Israel views. In turn, users can alert GIYUS operators to any opinion polls they think should be targeted.
The Jerusalem-based World Union of Jewish Students launched GIYUS and Megaphone on 19 July, a week after Israel launched air attacks in Lebanon.
The long-running BBC History Magazine poll posed the question: "Do you think holocaust denial should be made illegal in Britain?" Soon after it was targeted by Megaphone, the poll was pulled. The magazine declined to speak to The Register about the episode.
Prior to contacting The Register, our source corresponded with the magazine. Staff writer Robert Attar wrote at the end of August: "I am aware about this situation. I had a look at their site and all they have done is encouraged their members to vote on the polls which seems legitimate to me. It would also be extremely difficult to prevent groups of people voting in this way. As our polls are not used for any scientific or academic purpose I don't see the problem."
Three days after the launch of Megaphone, Amir Gissin, public affairs director of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs wrote to pro-Israel or "Hasbara" organisations to urge them to back the new tactic.
Dear friends,
Many of us recognize the importance of the Internet as the new battleground for Israel's image. It's time to do it better, and coordinate our on-line efforts on behalf of Israel. An Israeli software company have developed a free, safe and useful tool for us - the Internet Megaphone.
Please go to www.giyus.org, download the Megaphone, and you will receive daily updates with instant links to important internet polls, problematic articles that require a talkback, etc.
We need 100,000 Megaphone users to make a difference. So, please distribute this mail to all Israel's supporters.
Do it now. For Israel.
Amir Gissin
Director Public Affairs (Hasbara) Department
GIYUS currently claims 24,000 Megaphone users.
Comparing Megaphone to pro-Palestinian blogs designed to rally support, in comments to the Jerusalem Post on 31 August, Gissin said: "Why can they do it, but we need to sit quietly? The Internet is the communications medium of the future. The government is not behind this initiative, but I can only be happy it exists."
One Megaphone alert dispatched in August said: "Ask the UN to re-examine its position on the Qana incident. Remind the UN that Reuters admitted some of the Qana photos are faked, and that Hezbollah manipulates and uses innocent Lebanese civilians as human shields."
Qana was the scene of a devastating airstrike which killed dozens of civilians, including many children. Israel was widely condemned and the UN security council expressed "shock and distress" at the action.
Other interested parties have called for the initiative to try and stay under the radar. Former Israeli consul-general in New York Alon Pinkas told the Jerusalem Post: "Once it is out there that these are organized talkbacks, then anytime anything positive appears on the web, people will say it is manufactured in Israel."
While the loss of the BBC History poll is relatively inconsequential in the grand scheme, it points to a new highly organised mass manipulation of technologies which are supposed to be democratising and encouraging free expression by individuals.
Megaphone has no registration or identity check, so nothing would stop those opposed to Israel downloading Megaphone and using its alerts to voice opinions against its activities, however. Inevitably, a hacked version already exists which replaces Israeli flags with Palestinian ones and alters some of the text.
However it is used, Megaphone is effectively a high-tech exercise in ballot-stuffing. We're calling it lobbyware. ®
