That’s a “short and stout”, also known as a “Teapot”.

Yup, there’d be no shortage of volunteers.

> Hey, what am I, chopped liver?

Sorry!

Chopped Liver:

```
1 1/2 lb chicken livers
1/4 cup schmaltz, divided
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
5 hardboiled eggs, peeled and diced (divided)
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 cup gribenes (optional)
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

```

You will also need

```
skillet, food processor

```

Pour 2 tbsp schmaltz or oil into a skillet and heat over medium. Put half of the chicken livers into the skillet and fry them for about 3 minutes on each side (6 minutes total). Livers should be firm and browned on the outside while slightly pink on the inside. They will continue to cook internally after you remove them from the skillet; don’t overcook them, or they’ll turn dry. Season the livers generously with salt and pepper as they are cooking. When they are brown and firm, pour the livers into a medium-size mixing bowl along with the leftover schmaltz/oil from the pan. Put another 2 tbsp of schmaltz/oil into the skillet, heat it, and fry the remaining livers repeating the same process as above. Add the livers and leftover schmaltz/oil from the pan into the mixing bowl.

\*Note: If you plan to kosher your chicken livers by broiling them, you only need to sauté them in the skillet for about 1 minute on each side. Koshering the livers cooks them, so there is no need to sauté them for a long period of time. Be careful not to overcook or burn the livers, or they will become dry.

The skillet should now be seasoned with schmaltz or oil, so you don’t need to grease the pan again. Fry the chopped onion in the skillet over medium heat for 5-6 minutes until golden. Add the fried onion to the mixing bowl, along with 4 of the diced hard boiled eggs and the ½ cup of gribenes (optional). Season all ingredients generously with salt and pepper.

Fit your food processor with a metal blade. Place all ingredients into the processor and pulse for about 30 seconds, stirring once halfway through processing, until a roughly textured paste forms. Taste the chopped liver. Add salt or pepper to taste, if desired, and pulse for a few more seconds to blend. Let mixture return to room temperature.

Chill the chopped liver for 2 hours in the refrigerator. Garnish with remaining diced hardboiled egg and minced parsley. Serve as an appetizer with crackers, or on rye bread as a sandwich. If you want to make this dish gluten free, serve on GF bread or rice crackers. Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator.

This thread is irrelevant to me for two reasons:

1. Alex Jones has already publicly said he’s playing a part, so why should we think his site posts anything it takes seriously?

2. I’m a picky eater and a non drinker.

What I love is that the interviewer explicitly asks the pro-refugee interviewees if they’d be willing to take in a refugee. All said yes, only to quickly retreat once the (mock?) refugee showed up. Hilarious.

Secondly, they were asked only to allow the refugee to use their home to clean up and eat, and maybe a place to sleep for the night. That meager request was simply too much.

Once again, we see the so-called kind, compassionate crowd exposed as frauds. Everything they claim to believe in is done for show, a shallow attempt at making themselves look like caring people; there’s not a single drop of sincerity to any of it.

As for the gentleman who asked about orphans . . .

You bet your sweet ass I’d allow an orphan to use my home to clean up and to grab a bite to eat, and if they needed a place to stay until they were able to get back on their feet, I’d be happy to make room for them, although there would surely be better options for them.

People behaving in accordance with their claimed beliefs. What a strange concept, huh? 😛

Do you have the rest of the board on your ignore list? If you’re just talking to yourself, why are you posting?

What? 😕

What would make you think I have the rest of the board on my ignore list? Because I ignored the obvious trolling (which is allowed by moderators, oddly) and carried on commenting on the video which is the focus of the thread?

Are you enrolled in the foster home system as you write this ? No ? Then shut the fuck up, you disingenuous pus-for-brains.

I’m sorry? Is the video asking the pro-importing-thousands-of-refugees crowd to enroll in a refugee home system?

All the video asks is that they help a refugee for a single night.

I’d for it for an orphan, yet no one in the video, and I’m guessing no one in this thread, would do it for a refugee.

We all know why that is. I wonder if anyone here (besides me) has the intellectual integrity to admit it?

Didn’t watch the video, didn’t read much of the thread, both are rubbish anyway.

Just making sure you understand that videos can be edited. You know, ask a million people and show the only ones who refuse. And of course you can hire someone to act a scripted role.

Your video has zero evidence value and every sensible person would know that.

Oh, right…:smack:

Ha, okay. So you’re only interested in \*\*claiming \*\*that you would do something that you’re never \*really \*going to have to do or be asked to do, so you can poo-poo people who are asked to do it for an internet video stunt, never ever coming \*near \*actually doing something for the issue \*\*you \*\*claim to be SO sensitive about.

Yeah, okay. Credibility out the arse, there, mate.

FTR, while I have never housed, washed nor oiled the feet of any Syrian refugee ; I have given 5 euros daily to a woman at the St Lazare subway station so she could buy herself at least a kebab sandwich same as I throughout the year (I did leave her kids’ sandwiches to other subway goers, but then I haven’t earned any money over the past 3 years). What have _you_ done ?

It may well be that defending common decency and humanity is a waste of time. I don’t see how that relieves me of any responsibility to do so.
