| "Israel killed a soccer player!" (Oh, he was also a terrorist.)noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 11 Apr 04:45 AM Palestinian media is saying that a you | | Palestinian media is saying that a young man killed by Israel on Sunday night, Mohammad Ali Ghneim, was a soccer player for the Al-Khader club in Bethlehem. They are saying that "this crime comes as a continuation of the crimes of the Israeli occupation against Palestinian sports that have been killing their players and destroying their facilities for years, in violation of the international standards and laws of the International Football Association FIFA." What exactly happened? Times of Israel reports: According to the Israeli army, soldiers who were carrying out an ambush near al-Khader identified a person throwing firebombs at an Israeli vehicle on the road that links the Etzion Bloc of settlements with Jerusalem. "The soldiers shot at the suspect. A hit was identified," the Israeli military said, adding that the firebombs endangered the...Read More |
On Friday, a man in Lakewood NJ went on a string of attacks against identifiably Orthodox Jews, nearly killing at least one of them. The suspect first assaulted a driver and stole his car before hitting a pedestrian with it. He then stabbed a male Jewish victim in the chest and about two hours later, hit another pedestrian with the same vehicle. Marsh was charged with three counts of bias intimidation, three counts of attempted murder, carjacking, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and unlawful possession of a weapon. According to the Shore News Network, Bryan Huntingburg, spokesperson for the Prosecutor's Office, stated that the bias intimidation charges arose over statements Marsh made to detectives. In other words, suspect Dion Marsh told detectives he was specifically attacking Jews. And he attacked four, not three - and three of them remain hospitalized, two in critical condition. Marsh's Facebook page shows nothing antisemitic, although one disturbing video on the site includes brief scenes of him holding an automatic weapon and of him flipping off the camera. Black antisemitism is the third rail for the media and politicians. No one wants to talk about it even as we see multiple attacks a week...Read More |
From Ian: The racism in US Mideast policy Considering how overused the accusation of racism has become in recent years, I hesitate to bring it into a discussion of U.S.-Israel relations. Yet there does seem to be a kind of bigotry underlying a certain attitude among some senior U.S. State Department officials. And that is deeply troubling. This concerns the State Department's silence with regard to how the Palestinian Authority responded to the recent deaths of three Arab terrorists. On April 2, three members of Palestinian Islamic Jihad—the terror group that murdered my daughter Alisa, in 1995—set out to massacre more Jews. They were intercepted by Israeli security forces, opened fire on the Israelis and were killed in the shootout. As we all know, the P.A. signed a peace agreement with Israel in 1993, called the Oslo Accords, which obligates the Palestinian leadership to fight terrorism. If the P.A. was genuinely opposed to terrorism—as the media, the State Department and the Jewish left are constantly telling us—then it would have been delighted that Israel eliminated three terrorists. Instead, Nail Abu Rudeineh, the official spokesman for P.A. leader Mahmoud Abbas, accused Israel of "carrying out this premeditated attack, which led to the killing of three civilians." He said Israel's elimination of the terrorists is "a dangerous practice," "a dangerous escalation," and "a threat and a flagrant...Read More |
Palestinian media report: Settlers' cows grazed, today, Sunday, rain-fed crops for citizens in the Marmalah area in the northern Jordan Valley. And human rights activist Aref Daraghmeh said, "The settlers let off their cows in the rain-fed crops that the citizens planted in the agricultural lands in Marmalah, which led to the destruction of areas. " This is strikingly similar to a February report: Over the past two weeks, the settlers have relied on releasing their cows to the citizens' rain-fed crops in several areas of the northern Jordan Valley, especially Al Hadidiya, Makhoul and Samra. Note that the articles don't say that the cows ate or damaged wheat or barley fields. Just "rain-fed crops." What, exactly, are these "rain-fed crops"? If this photo accompanying the story is accurate, "rain-fed crops" are otherwise known as ....grass. Doesn't sound quite so menacing, does it? * * * * * * * * * Buy the EoZ book, PROTOCOLS: Exposing Modern Antisemitism today at Amazon! Or order from your...Read More |
In the 1830s, William Cooke Taylor visited Joseph's Tomb in Shechem (Nablus) and described it as being recognized as a holy place by Jews, Christians and Muslims. In recent decades, though, Palestinians have said that it is not the tomb of the Biblical Joseph at all, but the tomb of a Muslim coincidentally named Yūsuf Dawiqat, a sheikh. Apparently, Jewish interest in the site has retroactively changed Muslim history. But whether or not Muslims venerate the site today as the tomb of the Biblical Joseph or of their newly discovered sheikh, their respect for the site seems not to be very deep. Yesterday, a group of Muslim youths broke into the site, broke the marker of the grave and tried to burn the entire site down in a case of major vandalism. On Ramadan. Here's video: This is barely mentioned in Palestinian Arab media, and the one mention I found justified it as a "response to the crimes of the occupation." Yet no one seems bothered at an attack on a holy place specifically on Ramadan. Which is interesting, because anything that Jews do that upsets Palestinians...Read More |
