I am planning on attending the following event this Sunday:

On Sunday morning, March 21 at 9:00, the Middle East Forum will host the English-language premier of French documentary filmmaker Pierre Rehov's new film, "The Silent Refugees" at the West Newton Cinema on Route 16 in West Newton. Some French language has been retained, with English subtitles. This film deals with the brutal expulsion of Mizrachi Jews from Arab lands in the 40s and 50s. It has been selected for showing in Paris at the 2nd International Festival for Human Rights in late March. Bat Ye'or and David Littman will chair a Q&A session following the film. The cost is $10 and attendance is limited to 200. The theater is handicap accessible. An RSVP is essential (LGrodman@yahoo.com).

The film sounds interesting, as does the panel to follow. It'll require a bit of an early rise on a Sunday morning, but if I manage to drag my behind out of bed I'll be there.

Here's another interesting event the next day, also featuring Bat Ye'or:

On Monday evening, March 22 the Middle East Forum at Brandeis (MEFAB) will present Bat Ye'or who will discuss the thesis from her new book Eurabia that today Europe is both consciously and unconsciously surrendering its Judeo-Christian roots and embracing new cultural and political identities in which Arab and Islamic traditions, including the tradition of dhimmitude (the subservience of non-Muslims to Islamic culture and expansionism), are its central unifying themes. She will describe the sociopolitical impact of this transformation as reflected in European anti-Semitism, vilification of Israel, and Anti-Americanism. The session will be held at 7:30 PM at The Atrium in the Shapiro Campus Center at Brandeis.

I'm gonna be attending a speech by Walid Shoebat and Bridgette Gabrielle that is supposed to be pretty large.
I'll let you know how that goes.

I heard Bridgette Gabrielle talk to Sean Hannity today on Talk Radio, and I'm trying to find her website. I thought she said www.americancongressofturth.org or .com, but neither work. Would you happen to know the correct addy? Please email me.

1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.

2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.

3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...

4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.

Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.

It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."

5) Enjoy your stay!
