Seeing is not writing

My near failure to write my usual posts is not because of any lack of desire, but because of a complete lack of time. Between social obligations and much neglected repairs, I haven't had a spare moment. However, today (inspired by yesterday's comments) I managed to obtain some video editing software and took the time to convert some of yesterday's video from the bulky .avi to the easier-to-stream .wmv format. I hope this will give a better idea of what went on yesterday.

Here are the additional video clips. (Simply click on them and hopefully they won't take as long to load as the other format.)

  • Blown-up bus on display.
  • More haranguing of the crowd by terrorist sympathizer.
  • The waving of the "Keffiyah."
  • Pro-terrorist demonstrators in front of Berkeley City Hall.
  • Professionally prepared signs (depicting "martyrs") being lined up on the ground for the demonstrators' instant convenience.
  • I'll be back soon, and happy streaming!

    MORE: Little Green Footballs provides a link to these videos from Zombietime, who also supplies some actual transcripts of the anti-Semitic ravings, plus pictures of children waving hateful signs invoking the blood libel.

    Jews in Berkeley should arm themselves.

    UPDATE: The Berkeley Daily Planet covered the event, referring to the riotous protest I filmed as a "silent vigil." in the article, the protesters get the last word:

    Nadine Ghammache, who participated in the silent vigil, walked away still shocked by the display.

    “It’s dishonest,” she said. “Because if they are really concerned about peace, they would also bring uprooted [Palestinian] olive trees. Can they even bring a bulldozed home? What is so painful is that people are being caught in that one-sidedness. It keeps all the groups caught in a cycle of violence.”

    Hmmm.....

    Are uprooted trees the moral equivalent of a busload of murdered civilians?

    To certain tree huggers, I suppose. . .

    » Anti-Terror Protest in Berkley from Solomonia
    Eric at Classical Values has two entries (here and here) with video he took at an anti-terror rally in Berkley, California (moonbat central). Present at the rally was Jerusalem Bus #19. It doesn't look like the Berkley police bothered to... [Read More]

    Good lord. Nice work, Eric. At least when the bus came to Boston, the cops confiscated the counter-protesters' amplification.

    "Young muscular fascist youth." I keep thinking about that phrase. The _style_ of it....

    Nice videos! They really do complement the ones I took. I was wondering where all those other people with cameras at the event were posting their stuff online! Check out my updated report on the Berkeley Bus 19 protest (parts 1 + 2) at http://www.zombietime.com/bus_19_berkeley/ and also the San Francisco event with more anti-Semitic rantings at http://www.zombietime.com/bus_19_sf/ . I can only hope more and more of this guerrilla news reporting goes on! As you point out, we can't rely on the media to tell us what's really going on.
