The Flags of those committed to the destruction of Israel




The question is often asked; why can't Israel seek peace? The responsibility of seeking peace at one time rested with the Arab nations surrounding Israel. Why can't they accept Israel into the pantheon of accepted states?? Why did they go to such extremes as sending in 5 Arab Armies to wipe out any attempt to create the tiniest sliver of non-Muslim state in 1948? Or why did Egypt, Jordan and Syria attempt this again in 1967??

 


Each effort was rewarded with a larger non-Muslim entity of Israel. Often the denial, outrage, and anger is expressed as the expression "Zionist entity"; because they cannot face reality and actually say Israel. When Sadat when to Jerusalem in 1977 I remember how unusual it was for him or any Arab to say "Israel"!



after it had leaked out that Israel had "the Bomb" The strategy of Muslim states destroying Israel in a standard war had to be reevaluated and when it was abandoned. The "Islamic cabal" who could not accept Israel changed tactics somewhat.



In the British Mandate of Palestine there were the Jews and the Arabs. When the UN set up the bi-national state it was to be composed of Jewish and Arab states. Never was there a mention of a nationality called Palestinian. Both Jews and Arab were called Palestinians. After the 1948 war There was Israel, but no Arab State; not even in Arab Palestine. Egypt took Gaza and Transjordan to the West Bank. Since that state was not both sides of the river it was renamed Jordan. After losing the West Bank, for some reason they remain Jordan. They ceded all rights to the Palestinians.



A deliberate policy of blaming the Palestinians (the victims) for their stateless plight and ostracizing them ensued. Even today Palestinians are refused citizenship in countries like Iraq, Lebanon, etc.



This policy was meant to embitter the Palestinians. It was meant to create a hostile population directly on the border with Israel. It was meant to create a gang like oppressed mentality that would be ever restless, self-destructive much like urban gangs in the USA, Russia, Central,and South America. But these gangs parked on Israel's borders were also re-educated much like Mao's China. It was a mix of re-interpreted Islamic fundamentalism or revolutionary socialism as seen through the right-wing supremacist thinking of Arabs; with revived anti-semitic beliefs imported from Europe. Those beliefs were of Nazi origin with still more ancient medieval origins. While educated refugees could see the ruse, the uneducated fodder fell for it BIG TIME! Most Muslims and not Christians were engineered to look to Israel as the scapegoat despite the obvious facts of other Arab states being responsible. This brainwashing of Islamic "Manchurian candidates" continues today in Palestine.



They were slowly transformed into Proxy Fighters for outside Muslim Arab interests or the "Islamic cabal".

But they werent used immediately in a large-scale way. It takes time to create what Hamas is today.

For the first 19 years they were raiders or fedayeen who struck at Israel civilians with massacres and attacks in border areas trying to terrorize Israelis into leaving those areas and eventually Israel. A tactic Hamas STILL USES!! Yasir Arafat was one such fighter for the group he set up called Fatah. Ariel Sharon became famous for retaliation raid set up to discourage these attacks. Like now Gaza in the 1950's was a hotbed of guerrilla attacks. Except then the Egyptians winked at fedayeen attacks and they "administered" Gaza. This calmed down after the Israelis invaded Gaza in 1956 in the Suez War.

Border attacks still continued especially from Jordan, Syria and Lebanon.



The overwhelming victory of the Six Day war followed by the Yom Kippur was stopped much of this. But fedayeen had already transformed themselves for a new campaign of terror. In 1964 Arafat decided the re-christen the Arabs who were formerly called the Arab Palestinians into a new nationality. Ta-da The Palestinians. And today the media, the Arabs, Europeans, and the naive all behave as if Palestine was an ancient nation in the Middle East. It was brilliant move. Not only the invention but the sustained disinformation of Palestinian nationality. By 1974 when Arafat spoke at the UN Palestine as a country waiting for a spot in the globe. Preferably the spot occupied by Israel of course. After the Six Day War Arafat created the Palestine Liberation Organization. It was an umbrella for all organizations that sought to remove Israel from the map.



Their first strike was to create Palestine out of what actually was Palestine before the British gave it to the dynastic rulers of Mecca-Jordan. That was Black September. That failed. The next move in the area was for the PLO to set up a state in Lebanon. That set up a 15 year Lebanese Civil War that transformed the Amal militia into todays Hezbullah and pitted Muslims against Christians there.



But the signal for a new tactic was when PLO terrorists hijacked three airplanes; landed them in Jordan and blew them up before pliant Western media. What followed was an international war to terrorize Europe and Israel. It included an attack on the Olympic village in Munich by a group named Black September resulting in a massacre of athletes. As well as supporting terror by Leftist terrorists in the Entebbe hijacking and the Japanese Red Army massacre of Puerto Rican pilgrims in Lod airport. There were bombings and attacks at airports for the next 15 years. The Israeli airline EL AL became famous for its successful no-nonsense security. Of course the Israelis couldnt attack PLO easily, so they took their frustration on the Palestinians resulting in the 1st intifada. Katyusha rockets fired from Lebanon send Israelis into civil war ravaged Lebanon twice in 1978 and 1982. Does that sound familiar? In 1982 the effort tuned in a major war to destroy the PLO state. And the PLO fled to Tunis discredited.






The setbacks by the Arab Muslims to destroy Israel brough in a new player in 1979. Iran an ally of Israel with no history of antagonism was overthrown by fundamentalist mullahs. They immediately took a prominent role of threatening Israel (They could only say Zionist entity and STILL DO). They set up a Shiite proxy from the Amal called the Hezbullah. So very much like the Sunni PLO the Shia Hezbullah set up a proxy state for Iran in southern Lebanon. When the Israelis left in the early 80's they created a Christian buffer state in Southern Lebanon to protect Northern Israel.



For some reason Prime Minister Barak withdrew support in 2000 creating a 2nd intifada for Palestinians hoping Israel was collapsing and a new brave and closer Hezbullah state. By 2006 the new state attacked Israel and resisted invasion. Only international action pushed the hostile proto-state back from the Israeli border.



Lets go back to the Palestinians. Weary from attacks Israel decided to give in to international calls to negotiate with the increasingly limp PLO. That end in Oslo. Since the PLO was no longer active in destroying



Israel the "forces to destroy the Jewish infidels" went with a social welfare organization transforming them into a fundamentalist terror organization called Hamas.



Hamas had something new, They sent bomb laden individuals to blow themselves up in Israel cities. Suicide bombings took place in reception halls, pizza shops, buses, restaurants, more buses, etc. 1995 Hamas declared war. Arafat and his new Palestinian Authority negotiations on creating a state suffered. Since Arafat frequently spoke for the destruction of Israel, Israelis became wary. They became entrenched. And that increased more discord, that was ignited by Baraks move in Lebanon. Officially it Was Ariel Sharons visit of the mosques on the Temple Mount, but that was really a smokescreen. The 2nd intifada was a new method to destroy the Israeli state by the "islamic" cabal". It was an underhanded attack on civilians brought into Israel. And the Israeli bomb certainly couldnt be used on a Palestinian state. The Arab world stopped, watched and waited.Ariel Sharon took the helm and eventually ended the 2nd intifada by actually building a wall between Israel and Palestine, It's obvious that any trust the Palestinians built up after the end of 1970-85 Terror war evaporated again. Today Fatah state in the West Bank is at a low ebb in their c terror campaign. The economy there is improving. But Fatah still expresses it core beliefs in a destruction of Israel in speeches and issued documents. They want to destroy Israel; they just can't do it now.



Hamas on the other hand is a very active proxy state for Muslims Arabs and Iran as well. Ariel Sharon in an effort to centralize Israel population the area withdrew Jewish settlers in 2006. Would Israeli-less Gaza calm down? No Hamas bereft of suicide bombers jacked up their rocket firing capabilities ans started bombing southern Israel more. The Hamas creed is like the PLO-Fatah one; no infidel state for the Jews. The Islamic cabal is very happy now. Theres a hostile Hezbullah proto state in the north and a smaller Hamas fanatic state shoved right up against Israel. And its ta return to the fedayeen tactics of the 1950s except its now with vastly improved weaponry. The Hamas Shaheed Culture doesnt fear death for its fighters nor its own population. For them the resultant Gaza War was worth it if it weakens Israel and THEN destroys it. Martyrs are welcome.



There you have it. Israel is in a fight for its life with terrorist proxy fighters. All this while the Israel economy flourishes. In the worlds eyes the onus for peace cannot fall on Fatah, Hamas or Hezbullah. They arent countries. But Israel is, so a new inequality is created.And this conundrum has created new distortions for retrogressive Islamic forces to spread. Israel could be in dire straits any minute; not by hostile states but small proto-states created by terrorist militias and funded by a cabal that cannot accept Jews as an independent self empowered people.

Israeli Children Signing Missiles in Lebanon War



This photo from the Hezbollah Lebanon War shows Israeli youngsters signing missiles. Over and over descriptions indicated that these kids were signing weapons with
evil intent that were destined to be fired into Lebanon. This doesnt make sense. as no Israeli parents would ever let children touch live ammunition, The missiles were actually spent rockets that were launched by Hezbollah at the Israelis. These
rockets kept Israelis in bomb shelters the length of the entire war. So the youngsters were "peace-ifying' the used weapons with words and flowers. That conclusion contrasts with the media coverage of the event. All reports erroneously or maliciously only mentioned the false propaganda of kids signing missiles destined for Lebanon. It was only in 2009 that I finally read the truth of "peaceifying" spent ammo!!! Common sense here took a backseat to bias, prejudice, ignorance and hatred.

The Absurd Accusation of Greater Israel






Bigots often bring up the accusation that 13 mile wide Israel is expanding and threatening to gobble up the Fertile Crescent or the Middle East. They dont mention Israeli withdrawals from the Sinai. Lebanon and Gaza. That would ruin the basis of their lies.
Not that Israel has not expanded since the 6 Day /Yom Yippur Wars ceasefire lines. They have annexed the Golan and East Jerusalem. But an Israeli Empire that still remains a quick drive across; its not.
They adopt Hitler's strategy of the big lie and repeatedly post the same accusation. Posting perpetually in forums and yahoo groups mainly; their aim is to confuse and enrage the ignorant.
Of course like most Jew hater accusations they are easily dismissed and superficial.
They base this idea on the fact that fundamentalist Jews and therefore , in their eyes all Jews, want to recreate the David and Solomon Empire that stretched from the Eurphrates to the River of Egypt. What shows the bigots up as ignorant themselves is that they often state the River of Egypt is the Nile, when biblically it was a wadi near El Arish.
So here I posted 3 graphics that began their existences as graphics created by Jew haters.
I have added text.

There are no magic x ray guided missiles.

I am posting all my editorial cartoons for the next few weeks. So far I have not seen my particular perspective on the Middle East conflict anywhere on the internet.

Here I use a frequent Israel basher cartoon to show the reality behind the UN /International controversy on reports surrounding Israel's participation in the recent Gaza War. The obvious take on how Israelis are suppossed to limit urban warfare while rockets are raining on Sderot, Ashkelon, etc .This is to show the cynical attitude of Israelis toward a biased world court that doesnt not treat all parties equally. The absurd arguement of Israeli control over warfare is contrasted to Hamas control over their bombardment and their human shield strategy meant to create as much casualities as possible among Palestinans. Whats left out is Hamas firing from the vicinity of schools, markets, shelters, apartment buildings and mosques in order to get Israel fire to create new martyrs for the Hamas Islamic cause. You tknow the Culture of Death.

Layers of War

Neophytes look at the Israeli Arab conflict as one solvable struggle. But this volatile issue is really a multi-layered affair. Like the sediments on the bottom of a lake or a layer cake this war is violent war piled ontop of violent war. Its was very diagnosed carefully so it is very hard to solve.
The first layer was set down after the British occupied Palestine and later were given a mandate over the area. The Arabs had been ruled by muslim overlords since the Crusaders, whether it was the Mameluks or the Turks. But now the Europeans were in charge again. And like the Franks in 1099 the British were Christians. They had no Islamic religious authority like the Caliph in Istanbul. That was the first rude shock.
The second shock was Western values and culture. The West brought social progress, democracy, an aversion to tyranny, changing social mores, sexual revolutions, the industrial revolution, the transformation of womens roles as well as declining obedience to religion.
The third shock was the Balfour Declaration allowing Jews a homeland in Palestine. And the Jewish presence which had declined increased dramatically. And it continued to increase. To be clear Balfour did not set a Jewish government but only a haven from an increasingly anti-semitic world.
This was too much change for the people in British Palestine who included Christians, Muslims and Jews. They had lived in a stagnant practically medieval world since 1224. But there was even more horror as Arabs also saw young people attracted to the new ideas of the West. Islam was seen as old fashioned, even irrelevant. It was apparent that Islam was a fragile religion susceptible to the new ideas. Islam needed protection. They did not think to reform, improve or update the religion. Religious teaching precluded such changes. What was necessary was to remove people who brought the changes. To remove them from traditional Umma lands. First were the Jews and then the British would follow.
And so riots in 1920-1 and 1929 brought the first layer of war. Simple xenophobic riots born out of kneejerk fear. These riots weren’t planned. But The Mufti of Jerusalem decided to plan to rid the Jews and British as well as noderatate cooperative Arabs in the 1936-9 riots. The British retreated into their barracks and fortified areas and the Jews into fortified areas amd kibbutzim. The moderate Arabs suffered the wrath of the Mufti’s rage. This was the second layer of war. Organized violence with some spontaneity and ome control. As the approaching Holocaust drove Jews into Palestine, the Arab xenophobia went up several notches in absolute panic. Arab violence forced the British to end immigration into Palestine dooming many Jews trying to flee Nazi Germany. A year later after the death of 6 million Jews the Arabs still refused to budge from their xenophobic position. And so began the fourth layer of war.
This layer was really two years molded into one. We have the refusal of the Arab Palestinians to accept a westernized Jewish culture in close proximity to their own. They still had no faith in Islam’s invulnerablity to werstern values and materialism. Arabs through out the Middle East and North Africa recognized this as well from colonization by British, French, and to a lesser extent Italian and Spanish europeans. But what upset the Arab League founded after WW2, was the possibility of a non Muslim Non Arab state in their self declared umma lands. Their sacred Muslim territory granted in its self righteous egocentricity by Allah and the subsequent Arab conquest in the 7th to 9th centuries would not tolerate an infidel nation. This effort by Arabs outside Palestine combined with effort within Palestine. The Arabs declared they would “drive the Jews into the Sea”, This was to be a second genocide of the Jewish people in less than a decade. It would destroy the survivors of the Nazi holocaust.
The Arabs outside Israel respected the Jews as the people of the book. As long as they remained subservient to the Arab caste system of dhimmi. As Jews they had to endure centuries of humiliation and heavier taxes. With a new nation the Jews could stare back openly at the Muslim ex-masters. This was intolerable to Muslim Arabs!!!
But the Jewish Palestinians were militarily oriented in defending themselves against years of Arab attacks. They had fought the Nazis in the World War. They made up their lack of formal Army training and heavy weapons in fighting spirit; the spirit of survival. Newspapers gloomily feared for the Jews of Palestine. They prevailed over the better equipped Arab forces. They defeated the 5 Arab Armies of Syria, Lebanon, Iraq (whose border is far from Palestine) and Egypt. Meanwhile those 5 Arab Armies fearing collaterol damage of fellow Arabs asked they remove themselves from the arena of battle. Many did. And they went to the inland hills. There they would remain in the future West Bank fearing retribution, knowingly complicit in an attempted genocide. The newly emptied land became the home of Jews fleeing Arab countries along with Holocaust survivors.
And year one after the El Nabka brought the fifth layer of war.
This was the Arab fedayeen war. It was a war of raiders and terror. Border communities were especially vulnerable like Sderot of today. Raid brought retailiation and Arik Sharon proved himself in these operations. The West Bank and Gaza were staging areas for these raids and protected by Jordan and Egypt. Of course regular army contributed especially Syrian gunners in the Golan. The 1956 Suez war g cleared out the Gaza nest of vipers for awhile but it was the sixth layer of war that ended this strategy. It was the Six Day War created huge buffers in the Sinai and the West Bank that ended raiding missions. The Egyptian self declared president Gamal Nasser had called for a holy mission to once again “drive the Jews into the Sea”. But surprise tactics destroyed his army, the Syrian Army as well as bring Jerusalem and the entire Jordanian Palestine into Israeli orbit.
The seventh layer was the creation of the Palestinian Liberation Organization. It was a conglomerate of Palestinian Arab terrorist fronts. This phase continued to the mid 1980’s with its most despicable hijacking of the ocean liner Achelle Lauro and the killing of a wheelchair bound Jew. One part called Black September killed Israeli Olympics in Munich in 1072, Sympathetic Japanese Red Guards machine gunned pilgrims in in Lod airport. Sympathetic German terrorists hijacked a plane to Entebbe airport and only Israeli commando action rescued most of the hostages in 1976. Hijacking and airport massacres throughout Europe marked this seventh layer. Yasir Arafat even engineered a propaganda coup by getting the Muslim, Arab and Communist blocs to pool their resources and have the United Nations Assembly declare Zionism synonymous with racism. Reactionary Arab nations embracing a police state version of socialism brought many nations to suspend judgment and give those states benefit of the doubt in relation to terrorist self righteous actions. They too joined those blocs.
The eighth layer of war was the Yom Kippur War. This was the last state action by Arab nations to destroy Israel. Despite its complete surprise during the holiest holiday of the Jews and an initial near defeat in the beginning , Israel was near the Nile and well into Syria at the end. This was in no small part of a huge arms shipment from the United States. The Egyptian leader realized he could not defeat Israel this way. Perhaps the Israeli read to use nukes spooked the US into the arms shipment. Nuclear war would have certainly brought the Soviet Union into it. They had armed the Arabs since the 1950’s. Peace brought Sinai back to Egypt and death by the Muslim brotherhood (many who are now in Al Qaeda) to Anwar Sadat. It alsi brought a cold peace.
But the PLO was not finished. In Lebanon it supported the Muslim half of the country and brought about the Lebanese Civil War which lasted 15 years. It then created a Palestinian state within Lebanon and began rocketing Israel in 1978 and again in 1982. Both resulted in Israeli invasions and a Christian buffer state. This was the ninth layer of war. Seeking to elimate Arafats state with in a state the Israelis pushed him to Beirut and eventually he left for Tunis. But the Israelis made the Amal Shia enemies and this was quickly exploited by the new Isalmic Republic of Iran a shia state. The amal militia became the Hezbollah state within a state later.
The tenth layer of war was the First intifada reaction by West Bank Palestinian Arabs. And this was ended by Arafat’s signing of the Oslo peace treaty. Hamas, Islamic welfare entity took up the “destroy Israel” mantra initiating the 11th layer of war
When Ehud Barak withdrew support of the Christian buffer state Palestinians felt Israel was weak enough to destroy. They used Arik Sharond visit to the Temple Mount to set off a six year war and terror campaign known as the Second intifada, Unlike the first the main feature was suicide bombers. These bombers went into many civilian situations to kill as many Israelis as possible. They were killed in weddings, pizza shops, buses (many buses). The bombers were like the PLO a conglomerate of terror groups. Aqsa group was affiliated with Arafat’s Fatah. There was also the Islamic Jihad among others. This brought IDF troops into the West Bank and Gaza but the solution was a huge security wall that ended the most horrendous attacks.
The 12th layer was war on the aforementioned Hezbollah was mostly a airborne missile exchange in 2006. And finally the 13th layer of war was the recent Gaza war to stop Qassam rocket attacks by Hamas. Remember that the Hamas war of suicide bombing had never ended since 1995. It had just been replaced by Qassam attacks. This war really hasn’t ended as Qassams still fly. Israelis wonder if the rockets that hit far inland like Beersheva will be a future norm and precipitate another Gaza war.
The layers have to be perceived for the Middle East conflict to be understood never mind solved. Intial layers were simple reactionary riots. These were followed by organized resistance. Then Arab national states intervenes. They supported guerrilla terrorist groups. Eventually these groups formed an umbrella the PLO. The Arab nations failed and were replaced by states within states developed by the guerrilla terror groups. These groups began operating from the Palestinian Authority territory but still failed and now guerrilla sub states like Hezbollah Lebanon and Hamas Gaza operate at the behest of Arab cabals and Iran have taken the helm of “driving the Jews into the sea”.
Its really an Islamic reaction this war on Israel. From simple outraged Arabs to international war to subnational war its always aggressive Muslim Arab efforts of many varieties with many Israeli reactions. Ots quite the miracle that despite changing strategies 13 mile wide Israel still exists.
