According to some reports he was 20 years old, but the Palestinian Ministry of Education said that he was in 12th grade. Another of those listed, Muhammad Sabar Ibrahim Suleiman, 16, was in fact a Hamas member and trainee. Now, DigFind has uncovered a third likely child soldier...Read More 06/10 Links Pt2: We Are Entering a New Phase of Discrimination Against Jews; The Palestinian 'battle flag'; The Tikvah Podcast: Matti Friedman on How Americans Project Their Own Problems onto Israel noreply@blogger.com (Ian), 10 Jun 05:00 PM From Ian: We Are Entering a New Phase of Discrimination Against Jews We are seeing, in the West, the beginning of a new phase of discrimination against Jews. Many cannot openly identify as Jews without fear of being assaulted, which is happening all too often in Europe, the United States and now Canada. Much of the animosity is related to the support of Jews for Israel and its historical/philosophical foundation, Zionism, the national liberation movement of the Jewish People in their ancestral homeland. The very word "Jew" comes from the membership in the tribe of Judah which, about 3,000 years ago, became a kingdom, with Jerusalem as its capital, under David and Solomon. Many Jews today grow up proudly learning about this astonishing history that uniquely binds the past to the present. However, Jews are now increasingly assailed by hostile, mania-driven campaigns, foremost at universities, bent on erasing this history altogether. There are ever-mounting efforts underway, including by people who consider themselves part of a "progressive" movement asserting human rights for minorities — a noble aim in principle — to single out only one country, Israel, and its national movement, Zionism, for vilification. Delegitimizing rhetoric seeking to portray Israel as a "settler-colonialist" enterprise imbued with "white supremacy...Read More ZIM Comix for #BlockTheBoat blockheads noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 10 Jun 03:00 PM AnarchoZionist put up some of these comics I made around the Port of Oakland, where the "Block the Boat" protesters are trying to block Israeli ZIM shipping boats from loading or unloading. The #BlockTheBoat blockheads have been spending all week at various ports to stop ZIM - one of the world's largest shipping companies - from loading and unloading. As far as I can tell, Oakland was the only place they were successful, with cooperation of the dockworkers union. But it is hard to know the truth because the activists lie a lot. They also went to other ports, waved signs, and didn't stop anything. * * * * * * ...Read More The EU has suppressed a report on incitement in Palestinian textbooks noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 10 Jun 01:15 PM Bild (German) has a report on incitement and antisemitism in Palestinian Authority textbooks that has been suppressed by the EU: Why is this report still under wraps? The EU Commission is still keeping an investigation report it commissioned into Palestinian textbooks under lock and key. From the report it becomes clear: Palestinian children are brought up in class with anti-Semitic agitation and incited to violence - financed by the EU! BILD has seen the full report. In 2019, Federica Mogherini, then the EU foreign affairs representative, commissioned a large study to clarify what is actually taught in Palestinian schoolbooks. The Georg Eckert Institute was commissioned for international textbook research, but its report has still not been published. ︎For their almost 200-page report, the researchers examined 156 textbooks and 16 teaching instructions published by the Palestinian Ministry of Education between 2017 and 2019. Since ongoing changes were made in school books from 2016 onwards, 18 other books that were published in 2020 were examined, the researchers write in a preliminary remark. A "narrative" of "resistance" would be used in the "Israeli-Palestinian conflict". What this "resistance" looks like can then be seen in numerous examples. So there are always times in which the "Palestinian liberation struggle...Read More 06/10 Links Pt1: Will Israel's new government get off the ground?; US-funded Palestinian NGOs introduced children to convicted terrorists; GOP Seek FBI Investigation Into Terror-Tied BDS Charity noreply@blogger.com (Ian), 10 Jun 12:20 PM From Ian: David Singer: Will Israel's new government get off the ground? An amalgam of eight leaders trading insults and denigrating each other - whilst their parties have adopted policies that are totally irreconcilable on critical issues – is not the foundation for any stable Government – especially in Israel – whose enemies will become increasingly emboldened following the announcement of a cobbled-together Israeli Government comprising very different bedfellows. A vote of confidence first needed from 61 members of the Knesset before this dysfunctional Government even begins operating is certainly not a foregone conclusion. Either an Islamic-Arab party – Ra'am (4 seats) – or an extreme left wing party – Meretz (6 seats) which includes two Israeli Arabs – possess the ability to drag Israelis to a fifth election in 3 years. This Government could implode in making decisions involving such issues as: - Hauling Israel before the International Criminal Court (ICC) - Authorising future building in Judea and Samaria (aka 'West Bank') - Extending Israeli sovereignty into Judea and Samaria - Preventing the renewal of violent protests by Israel's Arab population that saw synagogues burnt and attacks on Jews and their property during last month's Israel- Gaza conflict Fractured relations and policy differences abound: - Meretz leader - Nitzan Horowitz - has adopted the position that the ICC has grounds for investigating...Read More "Forest Jihad:" Arabs have been setting Jewish forests and fields on fire for at least a century noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 10 Jun 09:20 AM From Times of Israel: Fire authorities increasingly believe several large wildfires that broke out on the outskirts of Jerusalem and in the West Bank were deliberate acts of arson, likely set by Palestinians, Hebrew media reported on Wednesday night. Blazes that broke out in forested areas west of Jerusalem during the afternoon prompted the Israel Fire and Rescue Services to evacuate dozens of residents in the area. Later in the afternoon, several more fires were ignited in the northern West Bank, including large blazes near the settlements of Ariel and Shavei Shomron. Arabs have been setting fires to Jewish fields and forests for as long as Jews have been in the land. From the Palestine Post, May 22, 1936: I've documented many other 1936 arson attacks by Arabs, and there were incidents in the 1920s as well. They continued into the 1980s and 1990s. * * * * * * ...Read More This adorable 4 year old girl, profiled by CNN as a victim of an "airstrike," was almost certainly paralyzed by a terrorist rocket noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 10 Jun 07:00 AM On May 21, CNN had a story by Arwa Damon about 4 year old Sarah al Matrabeae who was injured in Gaza in what they call an "airstrike." She may be paralyzed for life. Based on what the family and doctors are saying, she was almost certainly injured by one of the many rockets shot by a terrorist group in Gaza that fell short of their intended targets in Israel. Her doctor says that there are multiple pieces of shrapnel lodged in Sarah's spine and spinal cord. Gaza rockets are built to explode with hundreds of pieces of shrapnel to maximize injuries to people. As we have shown previously, those rockets show spray patterns with lots of tiny holes that end up lodged in walls and people, while Israeli missiles aimed at buildings do not exhibit those kinds of characteristics. The family says there was no advanced warning before the strike. Unless there is a terrorist who is the target of the strike, Israel always warns families to leave their homes before a strike on a tunnel or other military target. Her brother describes how she was injured: "Suzu was sitting on the floor. Suddenly the rocket hit above our apartment and the roof of the...Read More    ©2021 EoZ | EoZ, NYC area Web Version   Preferences   Forward   Unsubscribe     Powered by Mad Mimi®A GoDaddy® company
