Dead Blog Revisted
Today I actually received an e-mail because of this very blog. Some anti-Israeli propoganda website guy actually stumbled across some POLITICAL thoughts on this blog that I guess he must have felt aligned closely enough with his website's philosophy that he requested I post a link to his site.
Normally I would have just deleted the e-mail and and moved on, but as it were I just happened to be killing time. So now I have ventured back into this cold wasteland of a blogosphere inhabited long long ago, casually stepped over a few frozen corpses and made my way to the walls of cave to scratch just one last message. The message from my close personal friend Eugene Gershin. Here it is:
Hi. My name is Eugene Gershin. Perhaps we have met online, but more probably you don't know me from Adam. I monitor blogs for SamsonBlinded, and came across your post.
I'd like to welcome you to look at Obadiah Shoher's blog. Obadiah - an anonymous Israeli politician - writes extremely controversial articles about Israel, the Middle East politics, and terrorism.
Shoher is equally critical of Jewish and Muslim myths, and advocates political rationalism instead of moralizing.
Google banned our site from the AdWords, Yahoo blocked most pages, and Amazon deleted all reviews of Obadiah's book, Samson Blinded: A Machiavellian Perspective on the Middle East Conflict.
Nevertheless, 170,000 people from 78 countries read the book.
Various Internet providers ban us periodically, but you can look up the site on search engines. The mirror www.terrorismisrael.org/blog currently works.
Perhaps you all received this e-mail and some of you have even decided to return to the ancient blog where life once dwelled. Perhaps some of you will even see this link and join Eugene in his quest to take down Israel or whatever it is he's doing. But in all likelihood, nobody at all will ever read this.
I must leave this place now. This sad and lonely blog, rotting away in cyberspace, floating in a void of nonexistence just hoping that perhaps on some distant day in some distant time, some computer-nerd/terrorist might just be searching for a keyword that will take him to one of its many cold forgotten pages. Then for a brief moment it will be alive again.
Good-bye, Blog Sky. Goodbye.
