Tighe is OK."},"content":{"rendered":"

I know many of you were worried about poor Tighe Barry, the Code Pink doofus who thought he could push the Israeli police around<\/a> like he does in this country. Since Tighe and I are special friends, he sent me news of his condition;<\/p>\n

\"tighe\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I know you’re relieved like I am. One of those links goes to an article on Huffington Post by Ann Wright <\/a>who describes the incident;<\/p>\n

Israeli police and military violently shoved the group back into a wall. Delegation member Tighe Barry from Santa Monica, Cali. was struck in the face with the butt of a military rifle and pushed to the ground where he could barely breathe. He was taken by ambulance to the Trauma Center of Tal-Hashomer hospital in Tel Aviv where he was treated for a concussion, an injured neck and an asthma attack. Benjamin and several other delegation members were bruised in the arms and upper body from being shoved and manhandled by the police and military.<\/p>\n

The journalist was taken to a local police station and released an hour later without charges. Mr. Barry was treated overnight at the hospital.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, can someone show me the screen shot of Barry getting buttstroked? If there was one I’d have already blown it up wall poster size and put it in the window next to my son’s Blue Star. After reviewing the video a few times, none of the police involved in pushing the protesters back even had a long gun with which he could buttstroke Barry. I call BS. And who paid for his night in the hospital? George Soros?<\/p>\n

“Is this the great democracy that the U.S. taxpayers pay for with $3 billion dollars a year?” Benjamin cried, as she was being dragged away by the police.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Did anyone see Benjamin getting dragged off by the police in the video? No she’s getting pushed back by the police.<\/p>\n

If you watch the video at my first post about this (at this link<\/a>), at about 1:30, you can see Wright screaming her ass off and she’s no where near the police – just screaming for dramatic effect. Then she runs around the small crowd and intentionally wedges her widebody between a pole and a barrier and starts flailing around like the police put her there. <\/p>\n

There’s nothing in the video or Ann Wright’s account of the incident related to teargas, except in Barry’s email.<\/p>\n
