| Suddenly, terrorists are dying of "illnesses"noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 02 Jul 04:45 AM A surprising coincidence is going on. On June 11, Hamas | | From Ian: Arnold Roth: Will Joe Biden Grant My Daughter Justice? Cynics point to the realpolitik of our situation. Jordan is a key U.S. ally; justice for a murdered American girl is simply not worth disrupting such an important alliance. This theory is bolstered by the U.S.'s near-apathetic response to the grisly murder of Washington Post columnist and Saudi journalist, Jamal Khashoggi. But Jordan offered another explanation. In March 2017, six days after the criminal charges against Tamimi were unsealed and more than two decades after the extradition treaty with the U.S. went into effect, Jordan's highest court declared the 1995 treaty to be invalid. Jordan's most senior judges said it had never been ratified by the Jordanian legislature. That isn't true. Jordan had indeed ratified the treaty. I know because my wife and I used our right under the Freedom of Information Act to request the 1995 treaty documents from the State Department. When they failed to hand them over, we sued. In April, the State Department released the key documents. They contained a bombshell. Writing in regal style and invoking the "guidance of God," the late King Hussein declared in a July 13, 1995, document addressed to the U.S. government his personal agreement as Jordan's sovereign "to and ratification of that treaty in whole and in part. We further pledge to carry out its provisions and abide by its Articles, and...Read More |
The Palestinian "academic" conference that we've discussed, "The myth: Zionism between denunciation and dismantling" has ended, and it proves what a sham Palestinian "scholarship" is.
Like everything else Palestinian, the truth is strictly optional. The reason to do anything is to find ways to demonize and destroy Israel. The final statement was given by Khalil Qarajah Al-Rifai, the official spokesman of the conference. One of the myths Al-Rifai said the conference demolished was the "the myth of the destruction of the First and Second Temples." Later on, al-Rifai said, "The conference showed the extent of falsehood in our daily life in the mind and thought at all levels by virtue of its influence and its international alliances, and despite this tyranny and tyranny, the Jebusite Arab Canaanite person and those with him from the nation and nations were able to confront the false occupier's narrative with the Palestinian narrative story." He claims that Palestinians are Jebusites. Now, the only mention of Jebusites in the area of ancient Israel is in the Tanach. The only reason we know that such a people existed was from the Hebrew Scripture. Palestinians are claiming to be the descendants of the Jebusites based on no evidence whatsoever...Read More |
Our weekly column from the humor site PreOccupied Territory. Check out their Facebook page. Jerusalem, July 4 - An area vandal who bills himself as "anti-capitalist" and "anti-establishment," and whose spray-paint creations lament the loss of "authentic" local culture, acknowledged today that he would not mind hitting the big-time with his work to the extent that he could afford to purchase property in the neighborhood, refurbish it, and perhaps use some of his financial resources to patronize establishments or businesses he cannot access under present fiscal circumstances, to enjoy life more, and maybe, if resources permit, move to a less run-down part of the city, but of course he would never sell out to The Man. The central-Jerusalem graffiti artist known as DUNN disclosed his modest ambitions today in an interview: breaking down the existing oppressive capitalist system, by force if necessary; putting the means of production into the hands of the workers; ending exploitative practices such as the use of money; and having his wall art attract enough attention and revenue to get him some serious dough, enough to secure him financially and afford him some small, everyday luxuries and conveniences, such as owning his own well-maintained home. "It's all about values," insisted the former student, who pursued a degree in Political Science before...Read More |
From Ian: Mr. President, Bring Home My Son Mr. President, Earlier this week, 73 members of your party in Congress publicly urged you to reverse your predecessor's policies toward Palestine. It seems like they won't need to exert much effort to convince you, as earlier this year your administration allocated $235 million to the Palestinians, presented as part of an effort to "restore credible engagement" in the world's most bitter conflict. But I am here, sir, with a painful reminder: No American engagement in Israel and the Palestinian territories would ever be credible until my son comes back home. Here, in case you need it, is the story: Early on August 1, 2014, at the tail end of yet another round of bloodshed provoked by Hamas, a ceasefire finally took hold. It was brokered by the United Nations and the Obama administration. Two hours later, it was blatantly violated when Palestinian terrorists, taking advantage of the lull in fighting, used one of their tunnels to creep into Israel. They shot and killed two soldiers, and abducted another—my son, Lieutenant Hadar Goldin. Hadar was almost certainly killed in action, and we demanded that his body be returned to us for proper burial. John Kerry, then secretary of state for the administration in which you also served, agreed. "The United States condemns in the strongest possible terms today's attack," he said in a statement...Read More |
Today's antisemitic Jews of IfNotNow and Jewish Voice for Peace have an illustrious antecedent.
From JTA, August 13, 1933: Although the fortunes of many have been wiped out, although their professions have been taken away from them, and although they live in a state of rigid suspense and fear of the moment when they will be humiliated, beaten, or imprisoned, a large number of German Jews continue to remain faithful to the fatherland. A few of them even support the current anti-Semitic National Socialist administration because of the party's policies on non-racial questions. They applaud the party's success in uniting the various divergent parts of Germany. They strongly approve Germany's demands for restoration of the old empire and the rearmament of the country. And in certain of its aspects they even support the current action of the Nazis against their race. Dr. Max Naumann, leader of the Union of National German Jews, (Verband Nationaldeutscher Juden) an organization enrolling seven thousand Jewish citizens of Germany, declared in an interview that Nazi action against Jews was in many ways justified. He further stated that patriotic German Jews did not want the support of foreign [column cut off] Dr. Naumann scored the Zionists for their retention of...Read More |
In May, in the wake of the latest Gaza war, 210 doctors signed a letter to The BMJ medical journal saying that Israel was the source of all evil. It included this line: The root cause of this cycle of violence is ultimately the Israeli military occupation and restrictions placed upon the Palestinian population. This is repeated often, especially by J-Street, but also by scores of "pro-peace" groups and anti-Israel groups.
It is utter garbage, and everyone knows it - because the Arab desire to wipe out Israel pre-dates the "occupation".
I just found an article from 1929 in the Canadian Jewish Chronicle where the Arabs (no one called them Palestinians, of course - those were the Jews) declared, to Great Britain, their prerequisite for peace with Jews:
"That there can be no peace in Palestine as long as the Balfour Declaration stands" will be the representation of an Arab deputation to the parliamentary Commission of Inquiry, it was decided at the conference on October 27 called by the Arab Executive. ...The conference, attended by several hundred Moslem and Christian Arab leaders from all sections of the country as well as twenty-five representatives from Syria and a number from Tiansjordania, presented demands for the immediate abrogation of the temporary regulations existing at the Wailing Wall. Declaring that the temporary regulations have existed too long and disclaiming all responsibility for the consequences if...Read More |
