 Israel deports 120 illegal immigrants - 0.01% of what Obama deported/other news
Israel is forcing 120 South Sudanese to leave the country as authorities try to whittle the number of illegal immigrants.

Interior Ministry spokeswoman Sabine Haddad says all 120, who are being flown out on Sunday, agreed to leave voluntarily. She says they were told they faced arrest if they did not sign a form agreeing to leave.

She says adults will receive 1,000 euros ($1,300) and minors 500 euros ($650) per person.
This has been a big story for a couple of weeks now.

But I saw an interesting statistic accompanying President Obama's recent offer of amnesty for illegal immigrants in the US. As mentioned in this article from last year:
Nearly 400,000 people were deported from the United States in the past fiscal year, the largest number in the history of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, the government announced Tuesday.

The year-end removal numbers "underscore the administration's focus on removing individuals ... that fall into priority areas" such as lawbreakers, threats to national security and repeat violators, the agency said in a news release.

Overall in fiscal year 2011, immigration officials said, 396,906 individuals were removed....

"All told, this administration has deported nearly 1.2 million people, leaving a wake of devastation in Latino communities across the nation," Joanne Lin, ACLU legislative counsel, said in a news release.
Which news story has had bigger headlines: the 120 Sudanese who are getting paid to go back to their country, or the 1.2 million (10,000 times higher!) who were forcibly deported under the supposedly liberal Obama administration?

Had leftists been 10,000 times more indignant at Obama before his recent about-face? Or is there something about calling Israel "racist" that they just find irresistible?
Well done:

Palestine Press Agency quotes Palestinian Contractors Union chairman Osama Kahil as saying that much of the cement smuggled into Gaza through Rafah is unsafe for building.

Kahil says there is a big risk of building without testing of the quality of cement, confirming that the Hamas government does not perform tests on building materials smuggled from the tunnels.

He claimed that the lab tests confirmed that the smuggled concrete is only half the strength of that necessary to build safe structures.
It isn't only about nukes....

From Times of Israel:

The Palestinian terrorists who killed 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics were assisted by a German neo-Nazi, a German newsmagazine reported Sunday. The neo-Nazi, Willi Pohl, helped forge passports and ferried one of the Black September terror cell ringleaders around Germany in the weeks before the Olympic massacre.

Based on recently released files from Germany's security service BfV, der Spiegel reported Sunday that Pohl had met with Saad Walli, an "Arab-looking man" who boasted of his contacts to the radical wing of the Palestine Liberation Organization, seven weeks before the massacre in September 1972. Saad Walli was the code name of Abu Daoud, one of the masterminds behind the attack.

The 2,000-page report, which the police of the city of Dortmund sent to the BfV and other national authorities, does not mention any efforts made by any of the contacted officials to apprehend Abu Daoud in the weeks prior to the massacre, the weekly reported.

In October 1972 Phol was arrested by the police and was found in possession of grenades, arms and ammunition. The weapons were thought to be held in keeping for Black September to be used in a retaliatory attack against German targets. He was sentenced to two years in prison.

Pohl, who today makes a living writing crime novels and has "credibly distanced himself from terrorism," according to Der Spiegel, helped Abu Daoud in several ways. He hel
