Today is podiakm's first day on CathInfo, and as I type, he has already made 13 comments, several of them thread starters, whose aim is to open everyone's presumably closed eyes to Jєωιѕн perfidy. Readers will note, too, that many of his comments are heavily flecked with spittle.

This conduct of his makes him about as unique as a hemorrhoid and just as welcome. Had he spent an hour or two actually reading this site's archives before he began "educating" its habitués, he might have observed that the awareness hereabouts of the danger that the Jєωs and their immense wealth and power represent to our Faith and our homelands is substantial and that a significant quotient of the commentary on this issue has been thoughtful and anything but sugarcoated.

It's no coincidence that many of podiakm's Beware of the Jєωs predecessors have turned out to be hasbara agents—always at least unwittingly and with scary frequency wittingly. Few people can fail to have seen that many, many websites have regular commenters who spout vulgarities and profanities directed at the Jєωιѕн problem and lard their comments with journalistic clichés ("JєωSA" being the one that is most widespread and most calculated to appeal to the thick-witted among the population). With disturbing but instructive regularity, such commenters turn out to be Jєωs, often Israelis, posting under two, three, or even more names. Only the certifiably blind and deaf would assert that these posters must be members of my favorite null set: the set of self-hating Jєωs.

The bottom line is that podiakm and similar commenters serve the ends of the Jєωs by revolting the sensibilities of civilized men and women and allowing prominent Jєωs to proclaim that all criticism of them is the preserve of knuckle-draggers.

If podiakm declines to leave CathInfo of his own accord, I hope that Matthew applies the sharp end of his boot to podiakm's hindquarters.
