PLO leader and former advisor to Arafat: Israel threatens defense contractors, led by Jews, to give them weaponsnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 04 Oct Like   Tweet   PLO leader and former advisor to Arafat: Israel threatens defense contractors, led by Jews, to give them weapons noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 04 Oct 04:45 AM This article in Khabar Press is more bizarre than the usual Palestinian analyses of Israel. Bassam Abu Sharif, a former leader of the PFLP and later an advisor to Yasir Arafat, manages to contradict himself within the same paragraph, after he claimed that Naftali Bennett's UN speech was a veiled threat to Israel's - allies. The veiled threat is not to the enemies of Israel. The clear threat is to the enemies of Israel, as defined by the Israeli leaders. Rather, the veiled threat directed by the Israeli leaders is to Israel's allies, especially those allies who provide Israel with its water of life and its elixir, i.e. with money, weapons, and the results of advanced research that Israel boasts of being the one who invented it while it was the one who It was either stolen or given to it by American companies that are (in most cases) owned by American Jews who agree to provide Israel with their secrets for free in order to support Israel as a base for the Zionist movement. If Israel is getting weapons technology for free from brilliant American Jews who supposedly run Lockheed, Raytheon and Boeing, why does...Read More Elder Comix: Holocaust virtue signaling noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 03 Oct 02:30 PM * * * * * * ...Read More 10/03 Links: UNHRC Stops Video Quoting Antisemitic Posts by UNRWA Teachers; Sarah Silverman denounces 'the Squad' over Iron Dome position noreply@blogger.com (Ian), 03 Oct 12:00 PM From Ian: Israel must always voice 'its truth,' even at the UN During a visit last week to George Mason University, Harris was asked by a student why the US supports Israel, which the student accused of perpetrating "ethnic genocide" of Palestinians and "displacing" them. Harris nodded her head in what was interpreted as agreement with the claims, and in her response praised the student for voicing "her truth." A thousand firefighters won't be able to extinguish the flame ignited by Harris, nor will the thousand apologies now being made on her behalf, albeit not by Harris herself. To be sure, even if it wasn't intentional, rather out of fear, she legitimized a contemptible blood libel. She also lent credence to the absurd notion that there is more than one truth – in other words, not just the voice of the Americans killed in the September 11 attacks deserve to be heard, but also the truth of the terrorists who committed those atrocities. Bennett forgot, and the "Harris incident" reminded him that the question of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not a question that pertains to the future of Gaza under the rule of Hamas or even the future of Judea and Samaria. The question is about the roots of the existence of the State of Israel, which was established through war between the Jewish community in this land and the Arab population. Any attempt ever made to distinguish between...Read More How many Bahrainis protested the opening of the Israeli embassy? Not too many noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 03 Oct 10:00 AM Jewish Voice for Peace tweeted: I found video of one protest in Bahrain against the visit by Yair Lapid and the opening of the Israeli embassy in Bahrain. It came from Iran's PressTV, which had incentive to make the protest look as large as possible. The video makes it look like no more than fifty people attended the protest march. Not only that, it looks like the protest went on for some time, and they were not shut down, no arrests, no police presence at all - and that would have been gleefully reported if it had happened. If there was governmental repression against anti-normalization protesters in Bahrain, I can't find any of that in 2021. Maybe because those protests were so pathetically mall to begin with. * * * * * * ...Read More Arab financial support for UNRWA has gone down over 80% since 2018 noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 03 Oct 07:00 AM As it does every year, UNRWA is saying that it is in danger of closing down unless it raises more money. This is even though the Biden administration has restored some $150 million that had been slashed by the Trump administration. UNRWA Commissioner-General Philip Lazzarini said that UNRWA needs emergency funds of $120 million to keep the agency afloat. One of the reasons he mentions, though, is most interesting. While he noted that funding for UNRWA has gone down from nations such as Great Britain, he stressed that Arab support for UNRWA decreased from $200 million in 2018 to only about $89 million in 2019 and $37 million in 2020. That is an 81.5% decrease in funds from the Arab world in three years! Most of the Arab funds seem to have been emergency funding, though. In UNRWA's published budgets, Arab nations have always been a relatively tiny part of their funding. In 2012, only $6 million of UNRWA's $520M budget came from Arab countries: If the 2020 donations from Arab countries...Read More    ©2021 EoZ | EoZ, NYC area Web Version   Preferences   Forward   Unsubscribe     Powered by Mad Mimi®A GoDaddy® company
