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.

The Nazis were not Christians

Jew haters with an apologetic slant towards one of the greatest mass  murderers of all time always try to make Adolph Hitler into a church attending

devout Roman Catholic Austrian.Its fairly easy to see in the end result that the Fuherer was no Christian anymore than his colleague in the "How Many Human Beings Can we Liquidate" CONTEST, Josef Stalin.

But Hitler unlike Stalin had to win over his fellow countrymen and church with

PR campaigns that showed him in a positive religiously observant light.

Nazi Documents uncivered show that the NAZI party was a cult with its own customs and goals quite unlike the Church.

It was a strange religion of bloodlines, the Holy Grail, the lost lands of Atlantis and Thule.

The Bogus Pundits of Hate

 

                                                                          

Bogus Pundits of Hate

We all depend on experts. So it was particularly

devious when the strategy evolved to create Bogus

Pundits for anti-semitic cause. The first one I

encountered was Len Martin. Quite often the Jews

haters in forums touted the book "In Racist Marxist

Israel". Now I knew Israel was far from marxist.

The thriving socialism was giving way to

entrprenurial capitalism. Racism? Jews were of many

races. It fit the real world like the term

aparthied. So something was fishy besides the name

of the author, Jack Bernstein. Googling easily

provided an answer. One Googled source said there

was no Jack Bernstein and that the author was

Leonard Martin. And he was a white supremacist.

Aha! I thought. Sure enough more googling showed

the subtext  "By Jack Bernstein as told to Leonard

Martin" Hilarious as I forum posts advocating Jack

Bernstein's views. Martin had never been to Israel.

His popularity depended on the ignorance of

readers. And there we have the strategy of Bogus

Pundits of hate they can only go as far as hate of

themselves, the sympathetic hateful world of fans

who needed a hate fix, the naivete readers and the

silence of discriminating internet perusers. Many

bogus pundits are from the past. Notorious Jew

haters like Arnold Spencer Leese, Douglass Reed,

Alfred Lillenthial, and Benjamin Freedman. What

delights these bigots is a Jew denouncing his own

people. They LOVE Torquemadas. It really gives them

the giggles. You see they love to hate, It makes

them think theyre significant and gives them a

punching nag to relieve your bewildering puzzle

called life they really dont understand. Now some

of these were and are self loathing Jews like Gilad

Atzmion And maybe Lillienthial. We dont know much

about Benjamin Freedman. He was a Nazi sympathizer

in the 1930s. He was a anti-semitic Catholic who

claimed he coverted. Maybe that why he was a

Freedman rather than the Jewish "Friedman". Henry

Makow claims he Jewish but in writing to him  al he

knows his crackpot theories about the Illuminati he

invents. Alfred Lillenthial may be gone but for a

long time while incapacitated in the hospital many

works came out with his name. An Israeli

Anti-Zionist Israel Shahak died in 2002 but for

many years tracts came out in his name that were

obviously not written by him, Jews wouldnt write

tracts supported Blood Libel or the Protocols of

Zion. You see he was Anti-Zionist not Anti-Jewish,

But White supremacist writers took his name as far

as possible.

Then there’s David Irving whose identical twin brother considers him a wackjob. Irving rotates from Holocaust Revisionist to Holocaust denial more out of  the strategy of confusion that any indecision

The best bogus pundit in my book is Israel Shamir.

He posted in forums as an Israeli for years. Then

one day he wrote he converted to Christianity AND

RE-CHRISTENED himself as Adam Shamir. WTF?? About

the same time it was revealed in London  that

Israel Shamir was a Swedish white supremacist Joran

Jermas. And he sunk out of sight! Today he has

remerged  with his own Yahoo group. He controls

posts as not to let anyone  reveal his deception to

newbies.

Many of these bogus pundits have a hard time

speaking in Europe or America. David Irving flips

from Holocaust denial to revisionism all the time.

Germar and Zundel are in jail in Germany because

they forgot that when you deny the Jewish part of

the Holocaust you ALSO DENY the Gentile part thats

5 million dead dear departed. That part amuses me.

You have internet pychos like Rev. Ted Pike who is

not a reverend and Texe Mars here in America, They

are old fashioned Christian fundamentalist Jew

Haters. When these guys speak I say Dont Boo

Them!! Dont Block Them. Debate them  which leads to

Humiliation. They deserve that, We deserve to see

that.

The Haredi Anti-Zionists, the Tool of the Bigots

The Neturei Karta Orthodox, the Satmars, the Anti Zionist Jews and the True Torah Jews all live in a magical universe where God comes down from heaven and the Messiah grants them the Kingdom of Jerusalem. No God helps those who help themselves. They number in a few thousand and would be wiped out by Arab fighters as quickly as the Peaceful Essenes were eliminated by Roman legions.

They are a few thousand Jews who live in priviledged isolation. This compared to the millions of other Israelis who engage the world through self defense, through economic progress as well as philosophical/religious progress.


What strikes me as humourous is that the very same Haredis that Christian fundamentalist Jew haters champion as being great Anti-Zionists also spit on outsiders. These Christian Jew haters never mention this! Either they havent connected the dots or they hope no one else will. The Haredis are offended that others would try to tape or photgraph then and thus "steal their souls".


These are Haredis were strict intrepreters of who and when the Messiah arrives, but its obvious from Israelis survival and its victories over those who want to "drive the Jews into the Sea" THAT THERE ARE MIRACLES IN OUR MIDST! Both 1948 and 1967 show us that God Helps those who help themselves.

It actually says in the Qu'ran that the Land Of Israel actually belongs to the Jews

So the Muslims who rage against the discontinuity called the Jewish state are apostate. Muslims are taught that from Morocco to India there is a pattern of Islam in smooth transition from infidel Christians in Spain to infidel Hindu pagans. That the Jews break the pattern and stand as equals having thrown off dhimmi, enrages them, That is the a source of the Mideast conflict.

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.

Out of Touch Jew Haters using Archaic Images from the early 20th Century

Why are they using the Hasid image from over a century ago?
Islamist, Radical Arabs, Neo Nazis, White Supremacists still use outdated images describing Israelis and other Jews.

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.

Refuting Elias Akleh’s Arming Terrorist Israel

“Since their occupation of .Palestine.... in 1948 ” says Elias Akleh. Its so easy to miss! Most Arab/Islamist pundits whine about the occupation that began in 1967. Israelis then point out What was the excuse for Arab hostility BEFORE the occupation. Then you hear the deafening silence! Arab hostility was because of a non-Muslim state that was in power and control of its own destiny; without interference of the Muslim management called dhimmi. ( A situation I’m sure envied by minorities suffering in Arab states like the Copts, Marionites, Druze, other Christians, Assyrians, Jews as well as minorities such as Kurds, Darfurans, Dinka, etc.) Aklen skips that argument by stating that ....Israel....’s existence is an occupation! He doesn’t even WANT co-existence! He WANTS the Jews to go into the SEA!....


To continue..…“Since their occupation of ..Palestine.. in 1948 to establish Israel in the heart of the Arab World “ There you have it a full frank confession, albeit unaware, of the Arab Muslim intention against ....Israel..... Does ....Israel....’s existence violate international law? No it violates Arab Muslim law! It violates the concept of Muslim Umma lands in North Africa and ..West Asia.. reserved for Muslim Arabs only. How dare the infidels establish a non-Muslim state on HOLY MUSLIM GROUND reserved for Muslims by Muslims! Ever since Arab tribes rode out of ....Mecca.... in the 7th century The Muslims have become supremacist in their self righteousness over other peoples, ethnic groups and religions. They feel they are Gods ultimate expression. All before the existence of Mohammed is to be reviled. All non-Islamic as well.....


Elias Akleh can barely write the word ....Israel..... In doing so he recognizes their existence. Jews in a ....Muslim.. ..Sea....! So like many Arabs since 1948 he must amend with the word Zionist. I wonder why he doesn’t use the more popular “Zionist entity” used by Muslims of Arab states and ....Iran..... He plunges into outrageous lies by declaring all seven WARS as intiated by ....Israel..... The 1948 war (War of Independence/El Nabka) resulted when 5 Arab Armies were sent by the Arab League to destroy the ragtag citizen army that included many Holocaust survivors. That very same Arab League had rejected the UN resolution to create a bi-national state. The 1956 war was indeed started by ..Israel.. to cleanup the fedayeen base in ..Gaza.. that sent terrorists into ....Israel..... (Sound familar??). The 1967 war was in response to military buildups along the borders of ..Egypt.., ..Syria.. and ....Jordan..... President Gamal Nasser of ....Egypt.... had predicted the destruction of the Zionist entity in fiery speeches before the war. The Israelis took the West Bank and ..Gaza.. (....Palestine.... later) and the Golan and offered land for peace. No deal said the Arabs. The 1973 war was a surprise Arab attack on the Jewish HOLY day of Yom Kippur. The 1978 and 1982 invasions of ..Lebanon.. were in responses to rockets sent into ..Northern Israel... The Hezbollah 2006 war and the Hamas 2008-9 war were in response to attacks as well. While the first intifada was a grass roots movement not well organized the second intifada was better coordinated and was much more of an attack on Israelis with suicide bombings and gun battles. The Sheb’a Farms is really a poor excuse to rally anti-zionist opinion as it’s a tiny section of Golan that might be in ....Lebanon.... but who really knows for sure. ..Syria.. and ....Lebanon.... never argued about it from 1945 to 1967 anyway.....


So when Aklen states, “Zionist Israelis had initiated seven wars against their Arab neighbors. Six of those were waged after 1967 to maintain their occupation of the rest of ..Palestine.., Lebanese Sheb’a Farms, and Syrian ..Golan Heights..; formally recognized by the international community as an occupation.” He is just spouting the most radical fundamentalist Islamic rhetoric all based on exaggerations and disinformation meant to confuse the not educated reader. Is it “formally recognized by the international community as an occupation’? No the international community is an ambiguous body of many different opinions unduly influenced by petroleum rich nations. He implies it is monolithic. It is not.....
In lieu of any peace action by the surrounding Arab states, the Arab League and the Palestinian people ....Israel.... has on and off maintained a military presence since the 1967 war. Akleh wants to paint this erroneous and poorly thought out idea that 13 mile wide Israel’s raison d’etre is not its inventiveness, its courage, its ingenuity, its democracy, its technology but schoolyard bullying (??)!! ....
He can even not explain why the millions of Arabs with their centuries old infighting and an adherence to a crumbling tribalized religion have no destroyed the state of ....Israel..... He brings up the mythical (now called civic !!) international community again in its supposed disapproval of ....Israels.... existence. Without the international community (included Arab/Muslims states!) ....Israel.... would not exist! Technology and smarts have obviously saved ....Israel.... from the Arab hordes. Getting the atomic bomb before even the Chinese and Indians have made the Muslims stand back. The threat to use this made the 1973 Yom Kippur war (with Israelis approaching the Nile) the last war by formal Arab states and necessitated for a change to low tech war on the part of the Muslim Arab cartel to destroy non-Muslim Israel.....
His solution to this enigma is to describe ....Israel.... as a Spartan military state! For anyone who actually visits ....Israel....; its military preparedness (though not always successful) does belie any military society. In fact its unmilitary-ness is most apparent. Guns are treated casually (maybe too much). You want to see a military or police state? Visit ..Syria.., ..Egypt.., ..Saudi Arabia.., ..Oman.., ..Yemen.., the ..Sudan.., ....Libya.... where gangsters rule. Aklen goes on to mention “every Zionist Israeli citizen, from childhood to old age, being militaristic in one form or another.” Yes all perpetuated by cross border attacks initiated by Arab terrorists from 1948 to 1967. “ Israel possesses all kinds of weapons including weapons of mass destruction (WMD) such as nuclear and chemical weapons” Yes, to hold off destruction of the infidel Jewish state! Yes!....


....Israel.... certainly became the fourth largest army by its own merit. Every citizen had to shell out huge parts of their incomes to prevent annihilation. Akleh cant even give credit where credit is due, He has a string distaste we call hatred, And it is colored with irrationality and emotion bolstered by lies, and distortions! “named 18 EU member states, which authorized 1,018 arms export licenses to Israel worth a little less than 200 million Euros. All these arms exports are in violation of the EU Code of Conduct on Arms Exports under Criterion 2, which states that member states are supposed to “deny an export license if there is a clear risk that the proposed export might be used for internal repression or be used in the commission of serious violations of international humanitarian law”. Israel had committed such violations throughout its entire existence.”Akleh is self legislating here. He has become a A EU politician freely interpreting THEIR laws to fit his agenda! Israeli arms defend humanity and EU nations know it even if they tsk tsk with disapproval of Israeli methods. Of course these tsk tskers have NEVER offered an alternative. ....Israel.... has not committed violations of this sort.....
Aklen goes through a huge list detailing arms supplies to ....Israel.... He especially focuses on American aid. Is the hostility, the Iranian and Arab strategies , the efforts to destroy the tiny country mentioned here.. He wants ....Israel.... to appear secure able to afford stripping away of its military prowess.....
He quotes US laws against use of military weapons, “This law states that American weapons given or sold to any foreign country can be used only for legitimate self-defense or for internal security. They are not to be used in occupational operations.” And “The second is the Foreign Assistance Act (P.L.97-195), which states that any country is not illegible for any form of US aid if it engages in consistent pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human rights. “And “The third is the Leahy Law (Foreign Ops Appropriations Act). This is an annual part of the Foreign Appropriations Act, and states that no aid will be given to any unit of the security forces of a foreign country if the Secretary of State has credible evidence that such unit has committed gross violations of human rights.”....
Of course he is the arbiter of the meaning of “gross”. He wants us to believe that the monitoring and surveillance of Palestinian Arabs is a luxury for the IDF. Does he mention the long record of Palestinian Arab attempts to discourage the existence of the Jewish state stretching back almost 40 years? Or the their antecedents the Arab Palestinians that started the Jew-Muslim-Islamic hostility in 1920? At least he did mention the efforts of Arab neighboring states to destroy ....Israel.... in 7 wars. Why else have armament supplies and industry?....
Akleh also repeats his disinformation and distortions he dashes off the statement. “It has been, numerously, documented by Israeli, Palestinian, and international NGOs that Israel had consistently violated international laws and human rights since 1948.” But dares not to detail this. He says. “. Israel had attacked all its neighbors, committed war crimes, and occupied parts of their land.” Again little details but as I have already explained that THIS IS NOT TRUE. Another falsehood is that Israeli evicted huge areas of Palestinians and even wiped them off reminding us WHAT President Ahmadindejad said. Israel has evicted certain people with terrorist connections mostly from the West Bank to ....Gaza..... The Palestinian town were abandoned MOSTLY by the Arabs themselves at the behest of 5 Arab Armies (..Iraq.., ..Syria.., Jordan and ....Lebanon.... ) that attempted to destroy the Jews in a second Holocaust of the 1940’s. The Arabs were instructed to leave the theatre of battle so that they might not suffer the fate the collateral damage. But the citizen army won. And so ..Israel.. had much resultant room for the waves of Jews from Muslim countries expelled for ....Israel....’s victory and the later wave of Russian Jews escaping Soviet persecution. Why didn’t the Arabs return?? They were afraid? You see they were complicit in an attempted genocide. And so in the last twenty years there has been a deliberate attempt in the Arab media to revise history. Suddenly all the battles, fleeings, expulsions or any action at all from 1947-8 have been magically transformed into massacres comparable to Deir Yassin. Even that might have been a deliberate attempt by the Hagganah to paint the right wings groups in a bad light. Otherwise that might not have been a massacre but a battle. This media campaign continues in labeling Qana, Jenin and other confrontations in massacres to gain sympathy in the west. Hamas even uses hospitals, shelters and schools as staging areas for rocket attacls to kill as many Gazans as possible to (again ) get that desired Western sympathy. Watching the Jews after the Holocaust Arabs saw how powerful victimhood can be, Of course they reasoned why cant they get some of the action!!?? So if they cant cause victimhood they’ll invent it to take away from that maniacal terrorist image so prevalent in the world.....


Ankleh recites the usual litany of injustices. When he mentions stealing land he leaves out the fact that the land was lying fallow in many cases. When he mentions Palestinians “shoved” into prison he leaves out the reason 99% are there not for political crimes but actual crimes of terrorism. Planning. Operation. He even calls the freedom fighters as if Hamas ever gave its citizens any democratic rights or that Fatah did the same on the West Bank. Such hypocrisy. He complains that the rest of the Palestinians reside in “open air virtual town-prisons within a separation wall”. He exaggerates the situation as Palestinian towns are not prisons on the ..West Bank.. and that Gazans don’t even have the IDF around. ”. He leaves out that the 2nd intifada made separate roads and the wall necessary. The proof is the cessation of THAT intifada.....
Urban warfare in ....Gaza.... has given Hamas the opportunity for victimhood all Arabs crave. They have latched on to the “ disproportionate force” concept used to make the IDF into the “bad guys”. Israeli military weaponry has never included magic X ray vision missiles that attack Palestinian civilians (mainly defenseless children and women). Akleh underhandedly calls it “the daily entertainment of Israeli government -backed and armed extreme Zionist colonizing terrorists (settlers?)”. Israeli never target civilians because they cannot. High civilian death is from Hamas strategy of human shields and population density. He goes on to state “Israeli soldiers developed the sport of hunting (shooting) Palestinian children on their way to schools or while playing in front of their homes” Which is pretty much an unabashed lie. Of course here he neglects to mention all rock throwing incidents. He says the Israeli uses the Palestinian territories for military testing. But most of the military hardware he mentions are for standard warfare not guerilla warfare.....
There has never been any documented evidence for massacres of any Palestinians by the UN, Amnesty International or other organizations. Its all false propaganda designed for Western sympathy to dry up any support for ....Israel..... In fact many studies have revealed hoaxes created by Palestinian and other Arab groups in cooperation with Palestinian and Arab media. Arab media especially in Hezbollah ..Lebanon.. and ....Palestine.... show an industry of false impressions created FOR the media that has been termed by the West and Israeli pundits as PALLYWOOD or HEZOLLYWOOD.....
In a typical turnspeak tactic used by anti-semites around the web Akleh describes Zionism as a the extreme racist religious ideology of establishing a pure theocratic “Jewish” state for a prejudice- god’s chosen people “narcissist Zionist Jews” in the real-estate- brokering-god’s promised land of Greater Israel “Eretz Israel” extending from Nile to Euphrates. He would never describe ....Saudi Arabia.... in such a way. While Israeli is a overwhelming secular country with powerful regious movements. That is far more accurate but not enough gunpowder for his diatribe. There is a religious Zionist movement backed right wing of the government but its not the ....Israel.... majority at all. Israelis pretty much accept the Torah/Bible as not being a real estate guide. He used the term “holy war” in another turnspeak maneuver when the radical ideologues like Hamas and Hezbollah defined their crusade against the Jews (worldwide) as a HOLY WAR!! He even introduces the silly prospect that all anti-semites relish the GREATER ..ISRAEL.. concept of ..Israel.. stretch from the Nile to the ..Euphrates.. as in King Solomon’s time. First of all King Solomon was said to rule from the “Rover of ..Egypt..” which is a wadi near El Arish and not the ..Nile... Secondly this is no way the Israelis can ever occupy such a great area nor could they convert the 40 million Muslims there already. But Akleh mentions it nevertheless.....
Aklen insists that there were two investigations of Israeli military action in resect to weaponry transfer laws related to Israels killing of Hamas leader, Salah Shehadeh and the cluster bombs used to kill Hezbollah operatives in the 2006 ....Lebanon.... war. But he provides no proof just assertions. Again population density and placement of targets, whether leaders or weapons caches, by the enemy resulted large civilian deaths. He even labels Joe Biden as a “Zionist” for unknown reasons.....


For full rhetoric effect he calls ....Israel.... the terrorist entity as a break from “Zionist entity”. He doesn’t really explain what terrorism really is. Unannounced attacks of civilians are meant to create terror. The uncertainty of when and where the attack is to be defines terrorism. The IDF usually announces their intentions days before any operation. This they did in ....Gaza..... Using liberal terms for maximum effect he says “expansionist colonizing regime. Its successive governments had disregarded all UN resolutions, broken international laws, violated all human rights, committed holocaustal-level genocides, and perpetrated war crimes against all its neighbors and against mother earth and against the environment.” How can ..Israel.. be expanding when Sinai was handed over to ..Egypt.. in 1982 and ....Gaza.... was given on a “silver plate “ to the Gazans in 2006?? UN resolutions against ....Israel.... was always orchestrated by coalitions of Arab/Muslims blocks along with the Communist blocks before 1991. Today oil is used as a lever against ....Israel..... It procures votes from desperate countries in Africa and ..Asia... Never mind the Muslim solidarity that only really exists against the Jewish state. Aleh ignores the human rights violations prevalent in Palestine as well as many Arab states.And fails to ever focus on the fact that Palestine has been at war with Israel through the PLO or Hamas snce 1970. War crimes are mentioned without explanation. And ecological damage blame is thrown in for good measure.....


.. ..
He blames a lot of this on mysterious ”western political power elites” that arm and support ....Israel.... as if Israelis economic growth is a prop. A growth that is one of the highest in the world. On a sliver of land 13 miles wide!! He talks about Palestinian self defense when all attacks were on civilians. He decries the naval blockade as well as the surveillance for arms smuggling when ignoring that Hamas has been AT WAR since 1993 first with suicide bombings and THEN with Qassam rockets. He whines about western “crocodile tears and call for humanitarian aid to ....Gaza....’s Palestinians” and belittling Western liberal attempts to help the Hamas oppressed and undersupplied Gazans. No mention is made of the regular checks Hamas receives for fighting ....Israel.... nor of Hamas having fist crack at the food and supplies!....
To the Arabs of the Middle East, ....Israel.... is a cultural and political tool of un-Islam-ness. An effort by the West to colonize the Arab states. This means that deep in their hearts Arab Muslims know their Islamic culture is fragile and decadent and will never survive any proximity to Western culture whether it be European, American or Israeli! On the surface it appears as hatred for the West and a turn or return to Islamic fundamentalism or what they think that is. Do they hate ....Israel....? Yes! But they fear and hate western values, social mores democracy as well. They are xenophobic and not comfortable with change. They hate “us” for forcing them to confront these issues. Their Islamic culture is not compliant with modernity

Since their occupation of ..Palestine.. in 1948 to establish illegal Israel in the heart of the Arab World until the present, Zionist Israelis had initiated seven wars against their Arab neighbors. Six of those were waged after 1967 to maintain their occupation of the rest of ....Palestine...., Lebanese Sheb’a Farms, and Syrian Golan Heights; formally recognized by the international community as an occupation.....
Israel had maintained its occupation of the land for the last sixty years. The question that poses itself, here, is how a small state like Israel, 7 million Zionist Jews in an area of 8 thousand square miles (excluding the 1967 occupied territories), could maintain such an occupation against hundreds of millions of Arabs and against the disapproval of the civic (not political) international community? Bullying with extreme brutal force is the answer. Israel is a military society with every Zionist Israeli citizen, from childhood to old age, being militaristic in one form or another. Israel possesses all kinds of weapons including weapons of mass destruction (WMD) such as nuclear and chemical weapons.....
.. ..
Israel did not become the fourth largest army in the world by its own merit, but by the Western countries supplying it with all kinds of weapons. In its February 23rd report.. ..........................................................................Foreign Arms Supplies To Israel/Gaza Fueling Conflict amnestyusa.org.. ......named 18 EU member states, which authorized 1,018 arms export licenses to Israel worth a little less than 200 million Euros. All these arms exports are in violation of the EU Code of Conduct on Arms Exports under Criterion 2, which states that member states are supposed to “deny an export license if there is a clear risk that the proposed export might be used for internal repression or be used in the commission of serious violations of international humanitarian law”. Israel had committed such violations throughout its entire existence.....
.. ..
..France.., ..Germany.., and ..Romania.. were the top three arms suppliers to Israel worth of 126 million Euros, 28 million Euros, and 17 million Euros respectively. Other significant arms suppliers to Israel since 2001 also include alphabetically Austria, Australia, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, Columbia, the Czech Republic, Finland, Hungary, India, Italy, Poland, Romania, Serbia-Montenegro, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, and UK.....
The report also indicated the well-known fact that “Since 2001, the USA has been by far the major supplier of conventional arms to Israel” It also stated the logical conclusion that “Put simply, Israel’s military intervention in the Gaza Strip has been equipped to a large extent by US-supplied weapons, munitions and military equipment paid for with US taxpayers’ money” What the report failed to indicate is that Israel had violated all the US laws governing arms transfers.....
Examining the American military aid to Israel we find that since the end of WWII Israel had been the largest recipient of US aid (Armed & Dangerous Report.. ......). From 1949-2007 Israel had received more than $101 billion in total ....US.... economic and military aid. A previous Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the two countries started phasing out the economic aid and increasing the military aid, and in 2008 all US aid to Israel turned into military aid only. The current MOU, singed by Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns in August 2007, has increased military aid to Israel by 25% a year for the next ten years FY2009-2018, totaling to $30 billion.....
During the Bush administration 2001-2007 American military aid to Israel came under three primary programs; Foreign Military Sales (FMS) ran through the Pentagon totaled $25.2 billion in arms sales and contracts, Direct Commercial Sales (DCS) ran through the States Department totaled $6.16 billion in weapons and equipment, and Excess Defense Articles (EDA) also ran through the Pentagon totaled $36 million in used weapons and equipment. The total comes to a little more than $31.4 billion.....
The Foreign Military Sales (FMS) provided Israel with air, missile & munitions, naval, design, vehicles, and miscellaneous military aid. Israel received $19.81 billion for their air forces that included F-35 joint strike fighters, C-130J-30 aircrafts, JP-8 aviation jet fuel, and T-6A Texan aircrafts. In missiles and munitions Israel received $2.73 billion worth of GBU-28 & 39 small diameter bombs, TOW, Hellfire, bunker buster munitions, AMRAAM, Harpoon, Sidewinder, JDAM’s, and MK-80 series. US gave Israel $1.9 billion worth of the new series (Littoral) naval combat ships, $164 million worth of troop carrier armored vehicles and trucks, and $253 million worth of miscellaneous in the form of Patriot Missiles upgrade and M72A7 Light Anti-Armor weapons. Also included in this FMS package were $350 million worth of design and construction of two infantry bases.....
The Direct Commercial Sales (DCS) program contained about three hundred different categories of weapons transfer to Israel. The main top ten categories for FY2001-2006 were $557,896 million in aircraft spare parts, $449 million in missile spare parts, $439 million in engine jet F-100 spare parts, $254 million in engine jet F-100 series (F-15 & F-16), $210 million in ship components and spare parts, $186 million in aircraft fighter F-15 spare parts, $163 million in electronics components and spare parts, $128 million in ammunition raw materials, and $120 million in training equipment.....
The Excess Defense Articles (EDC) program shipped to Israel $36 million worth of used Cobra Helicopters, personnel carriers, carrier command posts, and miscellaneous articles.....
The most outrageous American military aid to Israel is the billions of Dollars worth of refined fuel to the Israeli army. Israel’s own oil refineries in ..Haifa.. and ....Ashdod...., which could supply Israeli military with all its fuel needs, are instead producing and selling its refined products on the open market. The Israeli army gets all its military fuel from the ....USA.... through the FMS program. The US Defense Department uses American tax money to buy oil crude from Arab Gulf States, ship it to American refineries to refine it, and then ship it to Israel.....
According to documents.. ......obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, from 2004 to 2008 the Bush administration had granted the Israeli army 500 million gallons of oil products worth $1.1 billion. During this period the American tax payers were faced with energy crises and had to pay $4 per gallon of gas at the pump while Israel was getting free gas from the Bush administration. Somebody has to pay for this gas, and it wasn’t the Israelis.....
Moreover, the US provides loan guarantees to Israel so that Israel can take out loans in the international money market with lower interest rates, and if Israel happens to default on any of these loans the US will bail Israel out with American tax money similar to the latest $700 billion bailout for the American banks. There is a condition on these loan guarantees. It states that these loans can only be used to support the activities within the sovereign areas in Israel (pre-1967 war), and cannot be used in the occupied Palestinian territories. This is a facetiously misleading condition, since such loans can free other monies in the Israeli budget to be used in building illegal colonies (settlements) in the occupied territories.....
The ....US.... has three laws that govern arms transfer to other countries. The first is the Arms Export Control Act (P.L.80-829). This law states that American weapons given or sold to any foreign country can be used only for legitimate self-defense or for internal security. They are not to be used in occupational operations.....
The second is the Foreign Assistance Act (P.L.97-195), which states that any country is not illegible for any form of ....US.... aid if it engages in consistent pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human rights. The third is the Leahy Law (Foreign Ops Appropriations Act). This is an annual part of the Foreign Appropriations Act, and states that no aid will be given to any unit of the security forces of a foreign country if the Secretary of State has credible evidence that such unit has committed gross violations of human rights. Expanding their occupation of the land the Israelis had violated numerous UN Resolutions, broke international laws as well as their own local laws, violated all human rights, committed grave war crimes, and perpetrated terrorism against Arabs in general and Palestinian Arabs in specific.....
It has been, numerously, documented by Israeli, Palestinian, and international NGOs that Israel had consistently violated international laws and human rights since 1948. In all its seven wars Israel, contrary to the false Israeli/American propaganda, had initiated the conflict in one way or another. Israel had attacked all its neighbors, committed war crimes, and occupied parts of their land. The Israelis had evicted hundreds of thousands of Palestinians out of their country, completely wiped off many Palestinian towns and built Israeli colonies in their place, had stolen Palestinian farm land and forcefully controlled the economy. Israel had shoved thousands of Palestinian leaders and freedom fighters into prisons, and kept the rest of the Palestinian populations confined into open air virtual town-prisons within a separation wall.....
Attacking Palestinian civilians, mainly defenseless children and women, has become the daily entertainment of Israeli government -backed and armed extreme Zionist colonizing terrorists (settlers?). Israeli soldiers developed the sport of hunting (shooting) Palestinian children on their way to schools or while playing in front of their homes. The Israeli army is using the 1967 occupied Palestinian territories and its Palestinian inhabitants as testing fields and subjects for theirs and for the American newly developed weapons as was exhibited in Israel’s latest 22-days onslaught and massacres in ....Gaza.........
Successive Israeli governments had consistently sent their armies to massacre Palestinian civilians. Israeli army had used all types of American supplied weapons; including depleted uranium tipped bombs and missiles, DIME bombs, chemical weapons such as phosphorous bombs and conventional weapons, to specifically and deliberately target Palestinian children and women. We need only go back to the Israeli last two wars; July 2006 against Lebanon and December 2008 against Gaza, still fresh in memory, to witness clear evidence of Israel’s terrorism, war crimes, disrespect and contempt of international laws and human rights.....
.. ..
The driving force for the Zionist Israeli crimes and terrorism has been the extreme racist religious ideology of establishing a pure theocratic “Jewish” state for a prejudice- god’s chosen people “narcissist Zionist Jews” in the real-estate- brokering-god’s promised land of Greater Israel “Eretz Israel” extending from Nile to Euphrates. This theocratic dream necessitates a holy war (not the first one against the ..Middle East..) to evict and remove the original inhabitants of the land to make living space for world Jewry to come and live in this Promised Land. This is how Israelis perceive their “final solution” to their “Palestinian problem”; destruction, massacres and mass evictions.....
Although Israel has violated all EU and US arms transfer laws yet none had conducted any investigation to hold Israel accountable to these laws. The two rare incidents when under pressure the American State Department investigated Israeli violations where completely suppressed and quashed. The first was in 2002 when Israel dropped a one-ton bomb on an apartment building in ....Gaza.. ..City.... in order to extra-judicially assassinate a Hamas leader, Salah Shehadeh, and killed 14 other civilians, women and children, in the process. This investigation was quashed by none other than John Bolton, the Undersecretary of State for Arms Control and International Security at the time. The investigation was never sent to the Congress in violation of US laws.....
.. ..
The second investigation was in 2006 when Israel dropped an estimated one million cluster bombs on the civilian areas of ..South Lebanon.. in the last 72 hours of the war, even after a seize-fire was agreed upon. This was made a top secret State Department investigation and was released to only a few senior members of the Congress such as the Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi and “Zionist” Joe Biden, the present Vice President. Needless to say that this investigation had never came to light.....
.. ..
Israel is a terrorist entity without any specific borders. It is an expansionist colonizing regime. Its successive governments had disregarded all UN resolutions, broken international laws, violated all human rights, committed holocaustal-level genocides, and perpetrated war crimes against all its neighbors and against mother earth and against the environment.....
.. ..
.. ..
Yet the Western political power elites justify Israeli terror as a self-defense, and keep transfering more devastating arms to this terrorist entity to wage more future wars and to wreck more havoc in the Arab World. They also distort facts and describe the victims of the Israeli terror, the Palestinians, as terrorists, deny them their legitimate right to bear arms for self-defense, and send their naval war machines and serveillance equipment to tighten the illegal Israeli blockade against Gaza Strip under the guise of preventing “arms smuggling”, while at the same time shedding some crockodile tears and call for humanitarian aid to Gaza’s Palestinians.....
To the Arabs of the Middle East, Israel seems to be a military tool for the Western countries. Hatred towards these Western political regimes is the natural consequences of arming Israel. Should we keep asking “why do they hate us” any more?....
