Cowardly Jordanian paralympic table tennis player refuses to compete against an Israelinoreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 08 Jun 04:45 AM From The New A Like   Tweet   Cowardly Jordanian paralympic table tennis player refuses to compete against an Israeli noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 08 Jun 04:45 AM From The New Arab: A Jordanian national table tennis player has withdrawn from an international championship to avoid playing an Israeli player, the Jordanian Paralympic Committee said on Friday Osama Abu Jame refused to continue participating in the Slovenia International Championship after reaching the quarter-finals where he was scheduled to go head to head with an Israeli player. Jame is sponsored by a Jordanian software company named ProgressSoft. It doesn't seem that the rules of the Paralympics are as stringent as those of other sports concerning athletes who refuse to compete. Jordanians seem thrilled as this show of cowardice. * * * * * * ...Read More 06/07 Links Pt2: The UN's anti-racism mission excludes Jews; Ben Shapiro: The muddled thinking of 'antiracism'; Former Israel Space Agency Chief Dies of Wounds Sustained During Arab Riots noreply@blogger.com (Ian), 07 Jun 05:00 PM From Ian: Anti-Zionism: the Modern Antisemitism The Holocaust did not put an end to antisemitism, but it made all its existing forms unacceptable. Had the Nazis entered Palestine and eliminated the Yishuv (the pre-state Jewish population of the Land of Israel) anti-Zionism might have followed the fate of its predecessors, but fortunately the Nazis did not. Yet, prior to the Holocaust, Judaism played the role that Zionism plays today. Hatred of Judaism was shared by both the right and the left; though on the left, it took not a religious — as with the Church — but an ideological approach. Karl Marx in his notorious "On the Jewish Question," written in 1843, proclaimed the antisemitic manifesto of the hundred years that followed: "In the final analysis, the emancipation of the Jews is the emancipation of mankind from Judaism." Thus Judaism, as an expression of Jewish particularism, as the culture of the People of Israel in the Diaspora, was declared persona non-grata. Hitler's ideas about the impossibility of peaceful coexistence between the Jews and the rest of the world, and his view of the inevitability of the final solution, stemmed from Marx's maxim. After the Holocaust, however, it seemed for a brief short moment that the Holocaust had not only failed to finish off the Jews, but had killed antisemitism for good. Not so fast. As happened many times during the twentieth century, the...Read More Cartoon of the Day: Those Jews from Brooklyn noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 07 Jun 03:00 PM * * * * * * ...Read More Islamic Jihad hands out awards to journalists in Gaza noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 07 Jun 01:15 PM Last week I reported that Hamas had an awards gala to recognize journalists in Gaza who did everything the terror group wanted them to. Today it was Islamic Jihad's turn. The awards show was held at the luxury Reef Al Madina restaurant. Islamic Jihad honored media professionals for "reporting Israeli crimes." * * * * * * ...Read More 06/07 Links Pt1: The West's Nauseating "Post-Truth" Over the Gaza War; PA pays $42,000 to family of terrorist who killed 2 Israelis; Hamas and Iran Turned Gaza into Cemetery for Children noreply@blogger.com (Ian), 07 Jun 11:00 AM From Ian: The West's Nauseating "Post-Truth" Over the Gaza War In the wake of the Israel-Gaza conflict in May, an American author was suspended by Twitter for comparing a Boston Globe cartoon to Nazi propaganda. New York Times writers who, in expressing their sorrow over the fact that "most of the children who died were Arabs," are in fact admitting that they would be happier if most of the children who died were Israeli Jews. The NYT story did mention that "Hamas and other militant groups fired more than 4,000 rockets at Israeli towns and cities indiscriminately." It also correctly stated that the Israeli air defense system had managed to stop about 90% of the rockets. The article also noted that at least two of the children killed in Gaza may have been killed when Palestinian militants fired a rocket that fell short, and that one of the children killed in Israel, Nadine Awad, was Palestinian. "The low toll on the Israeli side also reflected an imbalance in defensive capabilities," NYT concluded. All the same, the paper's pro-Hamas propaganda was deeply problematic in its evasive language. The authors of the op-ed, in expressing their sorrow over the fact that "most of the children who died were Arabs," in fact covertly confessed that they would be happier if most of the children who had died were Israeli Jews. Would the West's underdog-nation romanticists feel better if Israel's Iron...Read More Jews attacked, arrested in Arab countries in wake of Six Day War noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 07 Jun 09:10 AM Here are some New York Times articles about how the few remaining Jews were jailed, threatened and killed in Arab countries in the wake of the 1967 Six Day War. Even as these abuses were happening, the Arabs were insisting that they weren't anti-Jewish, just anti-Zionist. * * * * * * ...Read More The years between 1964 and 1967 tell you all you need to know about Palestinian goals noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 07 Jun 07:00 AM On this anniversary of the Six Day War, it is worth a reminder of what the original PLO Charter said about its goals. Articles 22-24: Article 22. The people of Palestine believe in peaceful co-existence on the basis of legal existence, for there can be no co-existence with aggression, nor can there be peace with occupation and colonialism. Article 23. In realizing the goals and principles of this Covenant the Palestine Liberation Organization carries out its complete role to liberate Palestine in accordance with the fundamental law of this Organization. Article 24. This Organization does not exercise any regional sovereignty over the West Bank in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, in the Gaza Strip or the Himmah area. Its activities will be on the national popular level in the liberational, organizational, political and financial fields. Article 22 shows that the PLO considers all of Israel to be "occupied." And Article 24 shows that the PLO did not consider the West Bank or Gaza to be part of the Palestinian state that they said they wanted.
