Page 4 The Westchester Guardian Thursday, JUly 1, 2010From the Edi<strong>to</strong>rThe Conquest of Ground ZeroThe Córdoba Institute plans <strong>to</strong> build a fifteen s<strong>to</strong>ry,$100 million mosque called Dar Cordoba (CórdobaHouse) at Ground Zero. The facility will includea 500-seat audi<strong>to</strong>rium, swimming pool, restaurant,and books<strong>to</strong>re. The current plan <strong>is</strong> <strong>to</strong> open the megamosque on September 11, 2011.Córdoba <strong>is</strong> the city in southern Spain conqueredby invading Muslims in the <strong>year</strong> 711. The Umayyadleader, Abd al-Rahman I, made Córdoba h<strong>is</strong> capital in756 and built the Great Córdoba Mosque which stillstands. By the 10 th century, Córdoba was the largestcity in Europe and filled with palaces and mosques.The great mosque symbolized the Muslim conquest ofAndalusia.Not surpr<strong>is</strong>ingly, the group named 9/11 Families<strong>for</strong> a Safe & Strong America called the mosque “a grossinsult <strong>to</strong> the memory of those who were killed on thatterrible day.” Saudi and Egyptian terror<strong>is</strong>ts committedmass murder of 2,700 Americans <strong>for</strong> the greater gloryof Allah at Ground Zero.Politicians like the mega mosque. It will generateseveral hundred jobs in lower Manhattan. New YorkCity Mayor Michael Bloomberg strongly supports it.So does Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer.Proponents of the Ground Zero mosque wrote anedi<strong>to</strong>rial in the Washing<strong>to</strong>n Post and said, “CordobaHouse <strong>is</strong> po<strong>is</strong>ed <strong>to</strong> become a gathering place <strong>for</strong> theenemies of militant Muslims: mainstream Muslims.”Imam Fe<strong>is</strong>al Abdul Rauf, head of the Córdoba Institute,ins<strong>is</strong>ts the Ground Zero mosque will “bridge the greatdivide” between Muslims and the rest of America. “Weare Americans, we are Muslim Americans,” Rauf saidat a Manhattan community <strong>for</strong>um in which angry NewYorkers held up pictures of their loved ones murderedin the Twin Towers on 9/11.Rauf was interviewed by the CBS news magazine,“Sixty Minutes” on September 30, 2001, two weeksafter 9/11. He blamed th<strong>is</strong> country: “United Statespolicies were an accessory <strong>to</strong> the crime that happened,”he said.Th<strong>is</strong> explains why mainstream Muslim leadersadamantly oppose the mosque. Among them <strong>is</strong> Phoenixcardiolog<strong>is</strong>t, Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser, a Syrian immigrantand retired Navy commander who heads the liberalAmerican Islamic Forum <strong>for</strong> Democracy founded after9/11 <strong>to</strong> give voice <strong>to</strong> mainstream Muslims who embracethe Constitution, freedom, and separation of mosqueand state. Jasser leads the fight <strong>to</strong> expose the networkof Muslim Brotherhood front groups and mosques inthe U.S. He narrated the film, The Third Jihad, aboutthe threat of radical Islam <strong>to</strong> the West.Jasser <strong>to</strong>ld the Bos<strong>to</strong>n Globe Ground Zero shouldnot be the place <strong>to</strong> promote Islam. “It’s the place wherewar was declared on us as Americans,” he said.Prof. Stephen Suleyman Schwartz <strong>is</strong> a Muslimscholar, voice <strong>for</strong> anti-Islam<strong>is</strong>t mainstream Muslims,and direc<strong>to</strong>r of the liberal Center <strong>for</strong> Islamic Plural<strong>is</strong>min Washing<strong>to</strong>n, D.C. Like Jasser, he <strong>is</strong> adamantlyopposed <strong>to</strong> the Ground Zero mosque, and <strong>for</strong> the samereasons.Radical Islam <strong>is</strong> not a religion as Americans understandthe term. It <strong>is</strong> a political doctrine of triumphal<strong>is</strong>thatred.Radical Muslims respond with hair-trigger sensitivity<strong>to</strong> any critic<strong>is</strong>m of Islam. When the Dan<strong>is</strong>hnewspaper, Jyllands-Posten, publ<strong>is</strong>hed twelve politicalcar<strong>to</strong>ons of Mohammed in September 2005,Arab governments filed protests, and in some cases,temporarily withdrew their ambassadors. The Danesreminded the Arabs that Denmark <strong>is</strong> a democracy; thegovernment had no power <strong>to</strong> censor newspapers.The car<strong>to</strong>ons sparked worldwide riots after a smallNorwegian Chr<strong>is</strong>tian paper called Magazinet reprintedthem on January 10, 2006. Outraged Muslims burnedthe Dan<strong>is</strong>h and Norwegian embassies in Damascus<strong>to</strong> the ground; s<strong>to</strong>rmed the Italian consulate inLibya’s second city, Benghazi; firebombed the Dan<strong>is</strong>h,French, and Austrian embassies in Tehran; and burnedAmerican, French, German, Dan<strong>is</strong>h, and Israeli flags inMuslim capitals around the world; etc.Ultimately, hundreds of people died on three continents.Cowed by the killings, few American papersre-publ<strong>is</strong>hed the car<strong>to</strong>ons.Radical Muslims hate freedom; they seek theextermination of all Jews and destruction of all liberaldemocracies. Muslim-dominated governments prosecuteblasphemy, and pressured the U.N. <strong>to</strong> adoptanti-blasphemy laws after the car<strong>to</strong>on jihad.Islam<strong>is</strong>ts speak in one voice <strong>to</strong> fellow Muslims, andthe opposite voice when addressing the West. YasserArafat was a chief practitioner of th<strong>is</strong> deceit called taqiyyahin Arabic. He would exhort crowds <strong>to</strong> murderousjihad in Arabic in the morning, and release statementsin Engl<strong>is</strong>h about h<strong>is</strong> desire <strong>for</strong> peace with Israel in theafternoon. Likew<strong>is</strong>e, Osama bin Laden, mass murdererof 3,000 Americans, shows one face <strong>to</strong> Americans andanother <strong>to</strong> Muslims. He tells Americans h<strong>is</strong> only beef <strong>is</strong>their presence in Arabia; he tells h<strong>is</strong> al-Qaeda followerstheir m<strong>is</strong>sion <strong>is</strong> <strong>to</strong> destroy America.The Ground Zero mosque will sit a<strong>to</strong>p bin Laden’scarnage. Yet, its proponents ins<strong>is</strong>t it <strong>is</strong> a symbol of peace.They point <strong>to</strong> its name, Córdoba, <strong>to</strong> invoke the era ofalleged Islamic liberal<strong>is</strong>m when Jews and Chr<strong>is</strong>tiansthrived under Muslim rule.Eight centuries ago, the fanatical Almohids wereravaging Córdoba. Jews and Chr<strong>is</strong>tians were freealright – <strong>to</strong> convert <strong>to</strong> Islam or face exile or death. BinLaden’s acolytes see themselves as modern inheri<strong>to</strong>rs ofthe Almohid ideology.The Great Córdoba Mosque was built on aChr<strong>is</strong>tian church. In Jerusalem, the al-Aqsa mosqueand al-Omar shrine are built on <strong>to</strong>p of the Templeof Solomon. The Umayyad mosque in Damascus wasbuilt on <strong>to</strong>p of the Church of St. John the Bapt<strong>is</strong>t.The Hagia Sophia church in Turkey was turned in<strong>to</strong>a mosque after Muslims conquered Constantinople.Throughout h<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ry, Muslims built mosques on sacredground <strong>to</strong> symbolize Islamic conquest over infidelChr<strong>is</strong>tians and Jews.To the Islam<strong>is</strong>ts, Córdoba <strong>is</strong> not a symbol of peaceand interfaith dialogue; it <strong>is</strong> a symbol of Middle Easternconquest in the West. It <strong>is</strong> hard <strong>to</strong> imagine a morepregnant symbol of Koran verse 9:111 which promotessuicidal jihad <strong>to</strong> “kill and be killed” than Ground Zero.Some scholars think bin Laden picked 9/11 based onthat verse.The Japanese never built a Shin<strong>to</strong> shrine at PearlHarbor after WWII; the Germans never built aGerman cultural center at Buchenwald or Mauthausen.Naïve politicians never bother <strong>to</strong> ask why the Egyptianand Saudi money men behind the Córdoba Instituteare so intent on building a mosque on the ashes of theTwin Towers.Islam<strong>is</strong>ts have declared jihad on America. TheGround Zero mosque controversy symbolizes thelarger conundrum facing Americans fighting th<strong>is</strong> war:whether the <strong>to</strong>lerant should <strong>to</strong>lerate the in<strong>to</strong>lerant. Asauthor Lee Harr<strong>is</strong> points out in h<strong>is</strong> book, Civilizationand Its Enemies, civilization requires <strong>to</strong>lerance and ahatred of violence. Hence, radical Islam <strong>is</strong> the enemyof civilization. Western nations, led by intellectualssteeped in democratic human<strong>is</strong>m, have a difficult timeaccepting th<strong>is</strong>. “The ultimate irony of the intellectual,”says Harr<strong>is</strong>, “<strong>is</strong> that he becomes an enemy of civilizationby refusing <strong>to</strong> accept the idea that civilization canhave an enemy.”When Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejadshouts “death <strong>to</strong> America” <strong>to</strong> cheering crowds in Tehran,he <strong>is</strong> not engaged in bravado, but instead, expressing agenuine goal which Iran hopes <strong>to</strong> achieve via nucleararms.Córdoba overthrew Muslim domination after 700<strong>year</strong>s of occupation. Will it take New Yorkers that long<strong>to</strong> realize the real agenda behind the Ground Zeromosque?sam Abady


The Westchester Guardian Thursday, JUly 1, 2010Page 5OpEdPsychiatric Censorship Over AbortionBy Chr<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>pher RostenbergMany mentalhealth providers inWestchester Countycensor speech aboutabortion in dayprograms, outpatien<strong>to</strong>r inpatienttherapy, social clubs,group therapy, one-on-one therapy andhalf-way houses.I have a mental illness. I also believestrongly that abortion <strong>is</strong> a <strong>for</strong>m of genocide(broadly defined).Abortion <strong>is</strong> a politically explosive<strong>is</strong>sue. When partial birth abortionarrived, the New York Times refused <strong>to</strong>publ<strong>is</strong>h illustrations of it or advert<strong>is</strong>ementsby anti-abortion groups againstit. I realized the public was being propagandized.In terms of killings, abortionhas killed 4,400 children every day since1973.Continued from page 3Having exhausted h<strong>is</strong> federal argumentsin state court, he returned <strong>to</strong>federal court and filed a second habeaspetition. That, <strong>to</strong>o, was denied, only th<strong>is</strong>time, the court said he was procedurallybarred. A real Catch 22. He appealedthat dec<strong>is</strong>ion <strong>to</strong> U.S. Court of Appealsin Manhattan, but struck out again.In its dec<strong>is</strong>ion, the federal appealscourt noted “it was three against one”when Campbell was <strong>for</strong>ced <strong>to</strong> theground and then “beaten repeatedly andseverely” by <strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>, h<strong>is</strong> fatherand brother-in-law. Diguglielmo “hitCampbell twenty times in the face,”and “clubbed Campbell’s head withCampbell’s cell phone until the phone... shattered.”The court did not find Campbellbroke the father’s hand with the bat.I first heard the word “abortion” inthe 1970s when I was in elementaryschool. I accompanied my mother on afemin<strong>is</strong>t march in New York City. Sherefused <strong>to</strong> participate in all the chants.I asked why. She said she did not want<strong>to</strong> defend everything the femin<strong>is</strong>ts wereadvocating, explaining that, when apregnant woman did not want <strong>to</strong> remainpregnant, she could go <strong>to</strong> a doc<strong>to</strong>r <strong>to</strong>make the child “go away.”Sometime later, I learned what shemeant. I came across a magazine pho<strong>to</strong>graphof the severed hand and tiny fee<strong>to</strong>f an unborn child. Part of my innocencewas lost.My view was strongly rein<strong>for</strong>cedby the famous documentary, Eclipseof Reason, narrated by one-time abortion<strong>is</strong>t-turned-pro-<strong>life</strong>advocate, Dr.Bernard Nathanson. A laparoscopiccamera inserted through a pregnantInstead, it said the father “hit Campbellthirty times, fracturing h<strong>is</strong> righthand” in the process. The court alsosaid Campbell was not the aggressor.Instead, the father and h<strong>is</strong> son-in-law,“moved <strong>to</strong>wards Campbell” <strong>for</strong>cingCampbell <strong>to</strong> <strong>back</strong> away “<strong>for</strong> eight or tenfeet” at which point he “swung the bat”and struck the father “in the knee.”At th<strong>is</strong> critical moment, Diguglielmo“came out of the deli and without identifyinghimself as a police officer, or givingany word of warning, pointed the p<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>lat Campbell, and fired three shots.”Is that really what happened? Afterall, the appellate judges were not there,nor did they attend the trial.Appellate courts view the coldrecord based on the winning side’sview of things. From th<strong>is</strong> perspective,“The evidence at trial showedthat <strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>’s father andwoman’s naval depicts a beautiful unbornboy in the fourth month of pregnancy.Another camera fixed on the woman’sgroin graphically depicts the boy as he<strong>is</strong> ripped apart and removed from themother’s vagina in bloody pieces.Something inside of me broke. Iwatched Eclipse repeatedly <strong>to</strong> makeup <strong>for</strong> those in denial. I often woke upthinking about mangled, broken, unbornchildren. I felt like I lived in a villageoutside Auschwitz during World War II.Many mental health providers saidmy angu<strong>is</strong>h over abortion was a symp<strong>to</strong>mof my illness, and not <strong>to</strong> be taken seriously.Instead of helping me deal with thed<strong>is</strong>tress I feel about the defining moral<strong>is</strong>sue of our day, these Westchester mentalhealth providers <strong>to</strong>ld me <strong>to</strong> shut up.When an ordinary person feelsstrongly about an <strong>is</strong>sue, he <strong>is</strong> simply“politically passionate.” When a personThe Deeply Troubling Case of <strong>Richard</strong> <strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>brother-in-law were not within strikingd<strong>is</strong>tance of Campbell’s baseball bat,” and“when <strong>DiGuglielmo</strong> shot Campbell,the d<strong>is</strong>tance between Campbell and<strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>’s father was at least 10-14feet” and “Campbell was <strong>back</strong>ing away.”Is that, in fact, what the WhitePlains jurors believed? It cannot beknown without interviewing them, butit <strong>is</strong> unlikely. If they believed Campbellposed no real threat <strong>to</strong> <strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>’sfather, then he was unjustified inshooting Campbell. Yet, they acceptedthe justification defense and acquitted<strong>DiGuglielmo</strong> of intentional murder.Meanwhile, almost a <strong>year</strong> <strong>to</strong> theday after <strong>DiGuglielmo</strong> shot Campbell<strong>to</strong> death, Campbell’s estate sued<strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>, h<strong>is</strong> father and brotherin-law,h<strong>is</strong> parents’ deli corporation,the Town of Dobbs Ferry and its policeofficials, the NYPD, and Westchesterwith a mental illness feels the same way,h<strong>is</strong> views are a symp<strong>to</strong>m of illness.Certainly, not all social or politicalsubjects can be addressed in therapy. Butthe zero <strong>to</strong>lerance <strong>for</strong> any anti-abortionview <strong>is</strong> broad based, and reveals thepolitically correct nature of the psychiatriccommunity. Psychiatry <strong>is</strong> political.For example, the AmericanPsychiatric Association refuses <strong>to</strong>acknowledge women’s Post-abortionSyndrome. Yet, it was not until a decadeafter the Vietnam War that psychiatr<strong>is</strong>tsacknowledged post-traumatic stressd<strong>is</strong>order in combat veterans.A young, female therap<strong>is</strong>t at St.Vincent’s Psychiatric Hospital inHarr<strong>is</strong>on got upset when I expressedgrief over abortion. She said I wascompletely out of order <strong>to</strong> “get political.”She threatened <strong>to</strong> throw me out if IContinued on page 23County <strong>for</strong> wrongful death.The shooting was re-tried be<strong>for</strong>ea Manhattan federal jury from April 9<strong>to</strong> 26, 2000. That jury found in favor ofCampbell’s estate and awarded a $4.8million in damages: $2,297,040 against<strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>; $675,600 against h<strong>is</strong>father; $67,560 against h<strong>is</strong> brother-inlaw,Robert Errico; $360,320 against thedeli corporation; and $1,080,960 againstthe real estate company which ownedthe deli prem<strong>is</strong>es and parking lot whereCampbell was shot.In one respect, <strong>DiGuglielmo</strong>’s casemirrors the O.J. Simpson case. Simpsonwas acquitted of murdering h<strong>is</strong> ex-wifeand her friend, Ron Goldman, in anL.A. criminal court, but convictedof these acts in civil court.

Page 6 The Westchester Guardian Thursday, JUly 1, 2010Health MatteRSJane Watson, M.B., B.S., M.D.The Underestimated Killer – GetAbdominal Aortic AneurysmTested<strong>for</strong> <strong>Free</strong>Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)<strong>is</strong> an underestimated, often undetectedcondition that <strong>to</strong>ok the lives of JoeDiMaggio and Albert Einstein in thedays be<strong>for</strong>e effective treatment wasavailable.Irving<strong>to</strong>n resident and decoratedwar hero, Ralph Goldsmith,(see “Westchester’s Finest,” p. 24) wasluckier. He <strong>is</strong> in excellent health seven<strong>year</strong>s after h<strong>is</strong> aneurysm repair at NewYork University Hospital. H<strong>is</strong> message<strong>to</strong> men over fifty-five: “Get screened. It’spainless and quick.”About 5% of American men willdevelop an AAA after the age of fiftyfive.It <strong>is</strong> five times more common inmen than women, and <strong>is</strong> 3.5 timesmore common in Caucasian males thanAfrican American males.Aneurysms occur when a bloodvessel wall becomes weakened andballoons outward under blood flowpressure. The aorta <strong>is</strong> the main arterycarrying oxygen-enriched blood fromthe heart <strong>to</strong> the rest of the body. Forreasons not yet known, elastin andcollagen, the elastic proteins, sometimesdegenerate in the abdominal section ofthe aorta, causing an aneurysm.The danger of an AAA <strong>is</strong> that it mayrupture. Th<strong>is</strong> leads <strong>to</strong> death in 80-90% ofcases. AAA <strong>is</strong> the 13th leading cause ofdeath in the Unites States. R<strong>is</strong>k fac<strong>to</strong>rsinclude smoking, high blood pressureand a family h<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ry of aneurysm.Occasionally, sufferers may feelsharp abdominal pain, <strong>back</strong> pain,shortness of breath or lightheadednessif the aneurysm has a smallleak. More often, there are no symp<strong>to</strong>msuntil the aneurysm ruptures.Most AAAs (68%) are detectedincidentally based on CT, MRI,or Ultrasound obtained <strong>for</strong> otherreasons. Others (32%) are detectedon routine physical examinationwhen a physician feels a pulsatingmass in the abdomen.Vascular surgeons follow anAAA with regular ultrasound tests.If the AAA gets bigger than fivecentimeters in diameter, the r<strong>is</strong>k ofrupture r<strong>is</strong>es rapidly. Above sevencentimeters, the r<strong>is</strong>k of rupturebecomes very high.The aim of detection <strong>is</strong> <strong>to</strong> fix anAAA surgically be<strong>for</strong>e it ruptures. Thetiming of elective surgery depends onthe general health of the patient and therate at which the aneurysm <strong>is</strong> expanding.Surgery has improved dramaticallyover the last sixty <strong>year</strong>s. In the 1920s,aortic procedures were universally fatal.Albert Einstein’s AAA was d<strong>is</strong>coveredin 1948 when he complained of occasionalpains in the abdomen. In 1949 atthe age sixty-nine, Einstein underwent anew procedure coating h<strong>is</strong> aorta in polyethenecellophane which <strong>is</strong> irritating <strong>to</strong>human t<strong>is</strong>sue. Th<strong>is</strong> cellophane inducedintense inflammation around the aneurysm,causing <strong>for</strong>mation of rigid, fibroust<strong>is</strong>sue <strong>to</strong> prevent rupture.Einstein had a prognos<strong>is</strong> of onlya few months without treatment. Hesurvived five more <strong>year</strong>s until h<strong>is</strong> aneurysmslowly leaked again and he diedafter refusing further help. He said, “Iwant <strong>to</strong> go when I want. It <strong>is</strong> tasteless<strong>to</strong> prolong <strong>life</strong> artificially. I have donemy share, it <strong>is</strong> time <strong>to</strong> go. I will do itelegantly.”These days, Einstein would haveseveral surgical options <strong>to</strong> repair h<strong>is</strong>aneurysm. In an “open” procedure,the surgeon makes an inc<strong>is</strong>ionin the abdominal wall andreplaces the damaged section ofthe aorta with a tube made ofsynthetic Dacron or Gore-Tex.Lately, surgeons haveemployed a new techniquecalled endovascular aneurysmrepair (EVA) <strong>to</strong> fix the aneurysmfrom within. Two smallgroin inc<strong>is</strong>ions are made and a“graft tube” <strong>is</strong> threaded up a legartery in<strong>to</strong> the aorta. The graft<strong>is</strong> held in position by stentssimilar <strong>to</strong> those used <strong>to</strong> openblockages in coronary arteries.The graft pushes against theaorta wall and diverts blood flowthrough the graft, excluding theaneurysm.An EVA avoids an inc<strong>is</strong>ion in theabdomen, allowing patients <strong>to</strong> recoverfaster. The majority can return home in24-48 hours after surgery. In contrast,an open repair using abdominal inc<strong>is</strong>ionrequires longer hospitalization andpatients recover more slowly.In some cases, EVA can be donewithout general anesthesia. Not allpatients will be candidates, however,depending on their ana<strong>to</strong>my.Dr. Mark Adelman, Direc<strong>to</strong>r ofVascular Surgery at NYU’s Cardiac andVascular Institute, has employed theContinued on page 16


The Westchester Guardian Thursday, JUly 1, 2010Page 7Weasel NationBetrayer. Blabbermouth. Canary.Double-crosser. Judas. Rat-fink. Snake.Sneak. Snitch. Squealer. S<strong>to</strong>olie. Tattler.Turncoat. Weasel.These are what we call a person whoreports others <strong>to</strong> the authorities.We are expected <strong>to</strong> rat out the wors<strong>to</strong>f the worst: assassins; al-Qaeda spies;child molesters. “See something, saysomething.”But when someone <strong>is</strong> minding h<strong>is</strong>own business and yet, breaking rules --like driving 60 in a 55 mph zone -- wegenerally leave Big Brother out of it.In a free society, we live and let live.People are animals wrapped in a fragilefabric of civilization. Society runs ontrust. Snitch <strong>to</strong>o much, and trust <strong>is</strong>undermined. The fabric of civilization<strong>is</strong> ripped.What are the consequences of lawsthat <strong>for</strong>ce some members of society <strong>to</strong>betray others?SB 1070, the Arizona law thatpurports <strong>to</strong> regulate immigration -- bylaw, an exclusively federal concern, like<strong>for</strong>eign policy and the coinage of money-- declares that, if you knowingly orrecklessly even attempt <strong>to</strong> “transpor<strong>to</strong>r move ... conceal, harbor, or shield”a <strong>for</strong>eign person whom the State ofArizona decides was “illegal” underfederal immigrations laws, you are guiltyof a Class 1 m<strong>is</strong>demeanor pun<strong>is</strong>hable bya fine of at least $1,000. And the statecan seize your car, <strong>to</strong>o.The law’s intent <strong>is</strong> <strong>to</strong> root out evildoersin our midst. But the method doesnot match the goal. For starters, being“illegal” has nothing <strong>to</strong> do with evil. TheFBI reports that, in the past few <strong>year</strong>swhen more people crossed over theborder from Mexico, violent crimein Arizona went down.Another problem <strong>is</strong> determiningwho <strong>is</strong> “illegal.” Canadianv<strong>is</strong>i<strong>to</strong>rs are not <strong>is</strong>sued an immigrationdocument proving theirimmigration status. Drivers fromstates like New Mexico get licenseswithout regard <strong>to</strong> immigration statusbecause public safety requires all drivers<strong>to</strong> have ID and insurance. Lots of folkswho grew up here look, sound and thinkAmerican, but have no papers <strong>to</strong> proveit.Even immigration authorities havedifficulty ascertaining who <strong>is</strong> “illegal.”Imagine how hard it <strong>is</strong> <strong>for</strong> laymen. SoSB 1070, if not <strong>to</strong>ssed out by the federalcourts, will shred our fragile social fabric.Start with those we rightly respectmost: doc<strong>to</strong>rs. Doc<strong>to</strong>rs are bound by theHippocratic Oath. As Hippocrates said,primum non nocere, “first, do no harm.”In the modern version of the oath,a doc<strong>to</strong>r swears <strong>to</strong> “respect the privacyof my patients, <strong>for</strong> their problems arenot d<strong>is</strong>closed <strong>to</strong> me that the world mayknow....”Beginning July 29 th , SB 1070requires all Arizona doc<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>to</strong> squeal ontheir patients lest the doc<strong>to</strong>r be guiltyof “concealing” or “harboring” a banned<strong>for</strong>eigner. If the doc<strong>to</strong>r fails <strong>to</strong> rat outthe patient, he or she faces a stiff fineof at least $1,000 per incident. If thedoc<strong>to</strong>r contests the charge of failing <strong>to</strong>be a s<strong>to</strong>olie, there will be hefty legal feesand lost income going <strong>to</strong> court.Federal law already criminalizesthe harboring and transport of peoplelacking valid immigration status.Th<strong>is</strong> law <strong>is</strong> aimed at smugglers; it <strong>is</strong>not en<strong>for</strong>ced against doc<strong>to</strong>rs, nurses,lawyers, nuns and community membersengaged in the helping professions.Federal law does not empowernosy, aggressive citizens <strong>to</strong> pun<strong>is</strong>h officialswho use d<strong>is</strong>cretion in immigrationen<strong>for</strong>cement. In contrast, if an Arizonaofficial declines <strong>to</strong> arrest or prosecutea pas<strong>to</strong>r <strong>for</strong> giving a <strong>for</strong>eigner a lift <strong>to</strong>court, any local fanatic can <strong>for</strong>ce thestate <strong>to</strong> pun<strong>is</strong>h both pas<strong>to</strong>r and theofficial.How po<strong>is</strong>onous <strong>is</strong> th<strong>is</strong> enl<strong>is</strong>tment ofcitizens <strong>to</strong> snitch on others? Considerour own h<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ry: the Red Scare of 1917-20, and McCarthy<strong>is</strong>m of 1947-57, with“Commun<strong>is</strong>t sympathizer” blackl<strong>is</strong>tsand people “naming names” <strong>to</strong> investiga<strong>to</strong>rs,the ruined careers and shatteredlives. The tumult over the award given<strong>to</strong> McCarthy-era squealer, Elia Kazan,at the 1999 Oscar ceremonies showshow raw the suffering was more thanhalf a century later.Or we can aim lower and examinethe Stasi, the East German secret policewhich operated from 1950-1990. Morethan one in seven East Germans was aStasi in<strong>for</strong>mer. Children in<strong>for</strong>med onparents. Parents in<strong>for</strong>med on children.Friends betrayed friends.

In the spiri<strong>to</strong>f Arizona’s SB 1070, spies reportedeveryone who was an overnight guestin another’s home. Entertain the wrongguest and you were a “harborer.” In EastGermany, that could be enough <strong>to</strong> getyou a bullet in the neck.Maybe you think it <strong>is</strong> extreme <strong>to</strong>compare th<strong>is</strong> commun<strong>is</strong>t evil withArizona and other jur<strong>is</strong>dictions --Continued on page 11

My favoriteep<strong>is</strong>ode <strong>is</strong> The Midnight Sun (1961).Characters Norma (Lo<strong>is</strong> Nettle<strong>to</strong>n) andMrs. Bronson (Betty Garde) are the onlypeople left in an apartment building as amajor planetary d<strong>is</strong>aster looms. Radionews reports the sun <strong>is</strong> on an irreversiblecoll<strong>is</strong>ion course with Earth.The stifling heat r<strong>is</strong>es and Lo<strong>is</strong>collapses with exhaustion. In a flash,she wakes up. Mrs. Bronson <strong>is</strong> hoveringover her, patting her <strong>for</strong>ehead with acold cloth. Lo<strong>is</strong> shivers with fever as afierce blizzard rages outside the window.It was all a dream. In reality, the earth <strong>is</strong>slowly moving away from the sun andthe planet will soon freeze <strong>to</strong> death.President Obama and the left --hell bent on carbon taxing everythingfrom industry <strong>to</strong> cow farts -- push thewarming theory <strong>for</strong> ideological andfinancial gain. Like The Midnight Sunep<strong>is</strong>ode, theirs <strong>is</strong> a dream world in whichthey believe the earth <strong>is</strong> warming when,in fact, it <strong>is</strong> actually cooling. Globalwarming will go down in h<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ry as oneof the great scientific frauds of our time.In November 2009, global warmingskeptics had a boost. Files and E-mailsleaked from the University of EastAnglia, a world center <strong>for</strong> pollution andclimate studies, revealed global warmingadvocates cooked the data on climatechange.Different regions of the world havenormal cooling and warming trends.The planet as a whole has experiencedcooling and warming trends well be<strong>for</strong>einvention of fossil fuels. It may be due <strong>to</strong>variations in solar radiation. Men oncefarmed areas of Greenland now coveredby glaciers. A few <strong>year</strong>s ago, Dan<strong>is</strong>hscient<strong>is</strong>ts studied Greenland’s ice core.It showed the earth naturally coolsand warms every two thousand <strong>year</strong>s.Mother Earth has had hot flashes longbe<strong>for</strong>e man walked the earth. Whethershe cools or warms, there <strong>is</strong> nothinghumans can do about it.It came as no surpr<strong>is</strong>e that Mr.Obama used h<strong>is</strong> Oval Office address <strong>to</strong>promote dangerous cap-and-trade leg<strong>is</strong>lation.First, Mr. Obama acted like theprofessor again, lecturing the public onhow the spill happened, as if we wereall wearing cone hats in h<strong>is</strong> classroomand never read the newspapers. Next, hepre<strong>sent</strong>ed h<strong>is</strong> rev<strong>is</strong>ion<strong>is</strong>t account on howdeftly h<strong>is</strong> admin<strong>is</strong>tration managed thespill (see Guardian June 24 th , p. 8).Every American president, from<strong>Richard</strong> Nixon <strong>to</strong> Barack Obama,prom<strong>is</strong>ed alternative energy and an end<strong>to</strong> our dependence on <strong>for</strong>eign oil. Thefederal government has subsidized therenewable solar and wind industries <strong>for</strong>the past thirty <strong>year</strong>s. Nothing substantialhas come from it. We must rely onoil <strong>for</strong> generations <strong>to</strong> come.Renewable solar and wind energy <strong>is</strong>Twelfth Century technology. Americarelied on it be<strong>for</strong>e the IndustrialRevolution. We moved away from itbecause it costs more than fossil fuels.Solar and wind infrastructure demandsvast amounts of land and cuts in<strong>to</strong>natural habitats.The terms “renewable,” “green,”and “re<strong>for</strong>m” sound good on paper,but say nothing about how we harnessand deliver th<strong>is</strong> type of energy <strong>to</strong> theconsumer. Mr. Obama does not know.In h<strong>is</strong> address, he claimed our children’sfuture was at stake and we must act now“even if we’re unsure exactly what thatlooks like. Even if we don’t yet knowprec<strong>is</strong>ely how <strong>to</strong> get there, we knowwe’ll get there.”Sounds like the song and dance <strong>for</strong>health insurance re<strong>for</strong>m leg<strong>is</strong>lation. Wedo not know what it will look like, howmany people will be affected, how muchit will cost, but trust me (wink-wink anda nod), we will get there and it will begreat!If the neo-Monarchs running thenation really want <strong>to</strong> develop alternateenergy, they should get serious aboutnatural gas. Alaska has one thousandtrillion cubic feet of it. Gas <strong>is</strong> a safeand clean <strong>for</strong>m of energy ignored in theenergy debate.Alaska also has oil reserves well overone hundred billion barrels.

Page 12 The Westchester Guardian Thursday, JUly 1, 2010What’s New InExtreme Archery Comes <strong>to</strong> Mamaroneck By Abraham AaronArchery has a long and diverseh<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ry. The first evidence of archery wasfound in Hamburg, Germany, around10,000 B.C.E. Early bows were madeof pine and arrows had flint points.Archers hunted game with bow andarrow. Over time, it became a sport inEngland, Egypt, India, and many Asiancountries, and was associated with highsocial status.The development of early firearmseclipsed archery which became all bu<strong>to</strong>bsolete. Guns required less training,and although slower <strong>to</strong> operate thana bow and arrow, were more usefulin combat, as lead projectiles couldpenetrate armor better than arrows.However, during the 18 th century, theEngl<strong>is</strong>h gentry <strong>to</strong>ok an interest in manythings medieval and revived the sport ofarchery.Today, the sport <strong>is</strong> growing rapidly.Archery competitions are especiallypopular among many h<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>rical societieslike the popular Society <strong>for</strong> CreativeAnachron<strong>is</strong>m dedicated <strong>to</strong> medievalh<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ry.Bow hunting <strong>is</strong> popular again. It <strong>is</strong>the only type of hunting legally allowedin upper Westchester.Archery in Westchester received ashot in the arm when Extreme Archeryopened recently in Mamaroneck. Thes<strong>to</strong>re features a wide range of equipment,including modern and traditional bows,arm and finger guards, gloves, targets,hunting supplies, and even deodorizers<strong>to</strong> cover a hunter’s scent. Prices <strong>for</strong> bowsrange from $20 <strong>for</strong> a kid’s bow <strong>to</strong> $1,600<strong>for</strong> complex compound bows.Archers must be at least 500 feetaway from any residence <strong>to</strong> legallytarget shoot in Westchester. Th<strong>is</strong> oftenmakes it hard <strong>to</strong> find a place <strong>to</strong> practice.To remedy the lack of shooting space,Extreme Archery installed an indoorrange with ten and twenty-yard targets.Cost <strong>is</strong> $15 per hour <strong>for</strong> adults and $10<strong>for</strong> kids. S<strong>to</strong>re manager, Chr<strong>is</strong> Brutting,noted “People meet up at the range afterwork <strong>to</strong> hang out, and have fun doingsome archery.”Extreme Archery <strong>is</strong> co-owned bythree archery entrepreneurs passionateabout the sport which <strong>is</strong> a family tradition.Each of the owners learned how <strong>to</strong>shoot a bow and arrow from h<strong>is</strong> fathers.Micro Center Supplants Circuit City in Cross County Mall By Amanda JaneMicro Center, a computer and electronicsretailer, opened its new s<strong>to</strong>re inthe Cross County Mall last week. TheOhio-based company now occupies the<strong>to</strong>p-floor site of the bankrupt CircuitCity.Micro Center, like Circuit City,retails computers and computer-relatedmerchand<strong>is</strong>e.

Acondition was that wind turbines andsolar panels be made in Texas. Instead,wind and solar manufacturing jobs were<strong>sent</strong> overseas <strong>to</strong> China. In a June 2009study, The Heritage Foundation estimatedcap-and-trade leg<strong>is</strong>lation willcost America another 400,000 manufacturingjobs per <strong>year</strong>.If we really want <strong>to</strong> know how th<strong>is</strong>leg<strong>is</strong>lation will affect the Americaneconomy, we can ask Europe. TheGermans now pay 25% more <strong>for</strong> electricity.Spain’s government sank hordesof money in<strong>to</strong> its renewable energyeconomy. Today, Spain has one of thehighest unemployment rates in Europe.One green job created by a governmentsubsidy results in the loss of three nongreenjobs.Minnesota Governor, Tim Pawlenty,called th<strong>is</strong> highly complex piece of leg<strong>is</strong>lation“The Ponzi on the Po<strong>to</strong>mac.” Mr.Pawlenty <strong>is</strong> spot on.

What changed since then?Nothing. Mr. Obama’s agenda <strong>is</strong> <strong>to</strong> taxand regulate us in<strong>to</strong> oblivion.

They do not care afig about the planet or the environment.Do you think these green charlatansever swam in a lake, hiked up a mountain,hunted in the woods or kayakedup a river? Climate leg<strong>is</strong>lation <strong>is</strong> allabout money, power and control. Goreand company have invested millions ingreen technology and do not really carewhether your energy costs go up, so longas their coffers are filled.We should invest in technology <strong>to</strong>clean up rivers like the Hudson andprotect and grow wild<strong>life</strong> preserves.Only the arrogant believe humans canreverse planetary temperature cyclesthat have ex<strong>is</strong>ted <strong>for</strong> millions of <strong>year</strong>s.descendants of horses aboard 275 shipwrecksgoing <strong>back</strong> <strong>to</strong> 1583.

Page 24 The Westchester Guardian Thursday, JUly 1, 2010Westchester’s FinestRalph Goldsmith - The Last Hero of Omaha BeachBy Amanda JaneRalph Goldsmith won h<strong>is</strong> BronzeStar, he says, because he was the onlyman who could walk after the June 6 th1944 D-Day landing at Normandy’sOmaha Beach. Goldsmith was amember of the First Artillery Div<strong>is</strong>ion’sfirst wave. Today, he <strong>is</strong> the last knownsurvivor of that landing.Goldsmith d<strong>is</strong>embarked h<strong>is</strong>amphibious landing craft at 6:30 A.M.and suffered a deep facial wound fromheavy German artillery bombardment aminute later.Goldsmith remembers zig-zaggingacross the two hundred yards of beachas men fell all around him. He made it<strong>to</strong> a steep sand embankment and foundhimself crouching behind a sand dune afew feet from Nazi troops. Surveying thebeach, he was appalled <strong>to</strong> see that “justeveryone was dead, friends, comrades,strangers, all dead.” He looked <strong>back</strong>at h<strong>is</strong> landing craft and saw the driverlying dead, <strong>to</strong>o.Goldsmith d<strong>is</strong>covered five otherseverely wounded soldiers behind theembankment. None of them couldmove. They had abandoned their heavymachine guns as they ran across thebeach. Their p<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ls were soaked withsea water.The Americans lay defenseless,mostly in silence, afraid of beingdetected by German troops a few feetaway. They were appalled by Goldsmith’sface covered in blood. One G.I. offeredGoldsmith a piece of chocolate. Hesuddenly realized he could not open h<strong>is</strong>wounded mouth <strong>to</strong> chew. He later hadsurgical grafts <strong>to</strong> fix h<strong>is</strong> tattered face.The First Artillery Div<strong>is</strong>ion’s horrificlosses caused American commanders <strong>to</strong>divert further troop waves away fromth<strong>is</strong> section of the beach. That meant norein<strong>for</strong>cements were coming <strong>to</strong> rescueGoldsmith and the G.I.s trapped withhim.Goldsmith did what he could <strong>to</strong>tend <strong>to</strong> the wounded. As evening fell,so did the temperature. The men wereweak from loss of blood and began <strong>to</strong>shiver. They were not going <strong>to</strong> make itthrough the night.the tides had swept awaythe carnage, leaving thebeach pr<strong>is</strong>tine again.At 7:00 A.M. on June7 th , Goldsmith saw a smallpatrol boat with two soldiersbringing ammunition s<strong>to</strong>res <strong>to</strong>the beach. He exposed himself <strong>to</strong>German gunfire a second time, ran<strong>to</strong> the men and warnedthem <strong>to</strong> get off the beachimmediately. He hitched aride on the fast boat, and feltsure the Germans were “playingwith me” by not shooting him.They held fire until the boat was300 yards from shore and able <strong>to</strong> escape.The boat returned <strong>to</strong> the battleshipU.S.S. Frank<strong>for</strong>d where Goldsmithwas confronted by “Three hundredguys pointing p<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>ls atme.” The Navy was <strong>to</strong>ldeveryone on h<strong>is</strong> section ofOmaha beach was dead.They were suspiciousbecause they saw twomen went out, but threereturned.Goldsmith was taken<strong>to</strong> the Captain and <strong>to</strong>ldhim <strong>to</strong> save the remainingtroops shivering in blankets.He described theGerman artillery positionsbehind the beach,and the Frank<strong>for</strong>d usedCaption: Goldsmith D-Day refused landing <strong>to</strong> watch Omaha them Beach h<strong>is</strong> description <strong>to</strong> shell the area effectively.The other men were then rescued.suffer. He s<strong>to</strong>od up and ran <strong>to</strong> anabandoned landing boat <strong>for</strong> blankets,knowing he likely would be detected andshot by German troops. He retrieved theblankets which protected h<strong>is</strong> comradesthrough the cold night.Strong tides carried away thousandsof dead and wounded soldiers. Thewounded <strong>to</strong>o weak <strong>to</strong> swim against thetides drowned. Goldsmith worried theirfamilies would receive the dreaded MIA(M<strong>is</strong>sing in Action) telegram, not theKIA (Killed in Action) because theirbodies were lost at sea. By the next day,Operation Overlord, the D-Dayinvasion of Europe, establ<strong>is</strong>hed a footholdin Normandy, but it <strong>to</strong>ok severalweeks. The heaviest loss of <strong>life</strong> <strong>to</strong>okplace that tragic first day of amphibiouslandings. An estimated 2,200 U.S.servicemen died on Omaha Beach.The reasons are still a matter of debate.Some military h<strong>is</strong><strong>to</strong>rians say inaccurateair and naval bombardment failed <strong>to</strong>drive <strong>back</strong> German <strong>for</strong>ces behind thebeaches. Allied intelligence had a rarelapse, <strong>to</strong>o. It placed the German 352 ndInfantry Div<strong>is</strong>ion twentymiles north of the invasionsite. In fact, a large <strong>for</strong>ce ofthe 352 nd was camped justbehind the dunes at OmahaBeach.Goldsmith was evacuated <strong>to</strong> anEngl<strong>is</strong>h hospital and elated <strong>to</strong> see h<strong>is</strong>injured beach mates there.He never learned their eventualfate, however, becausehe was d<strong>is</strong>charged a monthlater and returned <strong>to</strong> h<strong>is</strong> unit.He went <strong>to</strong> Europe again<strong>to</strong> fight at Aachen, Cologneand other intense battles. Hewas wounded a second time but says,“Nothing <strong>to</strong>uched the horror of D-Day.”The Army awarded him the prestigiousBronze Star <strong>for</strong> h<strong>is</strong> “heroic and meri<strong>to</strong>riousservice” at Omaha Beach.In May 1945, Goldsmith demobilizedand returned <strong>to</strong> h<strong>is</strong> childhoodsweetheart in the Bronx. The twomarried and moved <strong>to</strong> Westchesterwhere they have lived <strong>for</strong> <strong>for</strong>ty-six <strong>year</strong>s,the last twenty in Irving<strong>to</strong>n.H<strong>is</strong> wife, Ruth, says one of h<strong>is</strong>strengths <strong>is</strong> h<strong>is</strong> ability <strong>to</strong> mentally adaptand move on. One week after returning<strong>to</strong> the Bronx, he was <strong>back</strong> at work inthe office supply business “as if the warnever happened.”Goldsmith <strong>is</strong> also modest. TheGuardian asked <strong>to</strong> pho<strong>to</strong>graph h<strong>is</strong>medal. He replied, “Why would I keepit? I gave it <strong>to</strong> my grandson, he collectsthat stuff.”The Goldsmiths have two children,a son who <strong>is</strong> Executive Direc<strong>to</strong>rat Summit Children’s Residence Centerin Nyack, and a daughter who worksas a personal trainer. The whole familylives in Irving<strong>to</strong>n and the Goldsmith’sfour grandchildren went through theIrving<strong>to</strong>n school system. A great grandchildrecently enlarged the family.The Guardian salutes th<strong>is</strong> WWIIhero, the last survivor of that terrible dayon Omaha Beach.

Over the weekend, somepsychological shocks may come fromout of the blue, and these could impactthe shared-resources department of <strong>life</strong>(combined bank accounts, property,insurance, etc).
