| "The Roots of Violence Among the Jews from the Torah and the Talmud"noreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 02 Jun 04:45 AM On Tuesday, in Egypt, The Karama | | On Tuesday, in Egypt, The Karama Party organized a symposium on the topic "The Roots of Violence Among the Jews," about a book with that name, wth the author Dr. Saher Rafea. It turns out the book was written in 2008. Here's its blurb: The importance of the Torah, the Talmud, and the sayings of the rabbis in shaping the Jews' mindsets and cultural identities lies in the absence of geography for the Jewish community on which history is built and fabricated. Thus, what is left under their hands to fabricate and make their own history they can, through its events and tales, to shape the Jewish mind, are the written religious texts and its rabbinical explanations. Therefore reading the book directly and also reading between the lines should drive us to change our policies against the other / Jews so that we can achieve what we set for under the light of an explicit religious text which calls for the necessity of killing and extermination of the other - meaning Arabs, Muslims and Christians, all foreigners in their homes and their livestock: Total elimination of the other, physically and spiritually. Yes, Jews are violent because that is what they are taught in the Torah and Talmud.

From Ian: Ruthie Blum: A Palestinian Celebration of 'Empress of Terror' Fusako Shigenobu Her champions, some of whom were waiting outside the jailhouse to cheer her newfound freedom, disagree. They don't think that she has anything to regret. On the contrary, the PFLP stated that the "Palestinian people will never forget the sacrifices of this freedom fighter and her comrades in the Japanese Red Army for Palestine and the cause. Their revolutionary and humane principles, and their anti-imperialist sentiment, led them to join the ranks of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and fight alongside its freedom fighters." The PFLP also lauded the JRA for committing the Lod Airport massacre. Hamas joined the rhetorical festivities, with spokesperson Jihad Taha saying that "Shigenobu's support for Palestine will forever be recorded alongside all the honorable and free people of the world that supported the just Palestinian cause and the rights of the downtrodden Palestinian people against the fascist, racist and criminal occupation." Then there's the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM). The self-described "transnational, independent, grassroots movement of young Palestinians in Palestine and in exile worldwide" only rues the fact that Shigenobu is unable to continue her life's work, as she is ill with cancer and says that she wishes to devote her time to...Read More |
Holocaust Survivor Lillian Riess Widess left Europe behind just two years before becoming an entrant in the 1948 Queen of the Palestine Emergency Show pageant. Both her parents were murdered in the Holocaust along with her older brother Alfred. The story goes that they were murdered in the streets during a Nazi-sponsored pogrom in Taurogge, Lithuania. Of the other members of the family, only Lillian's sister Hilda escaped death, having married and moved to South America with her husband's family in 1933. Lillian, my husband's paternal first cousin once removed, survived the Kovno Ghetto and two labor camps, before landing in a DP camp south of Munich, in Landsberg. In 1946, sponsored by her aunt and uncle, she was at last able to leave the blood-soaked ground of Europe for Chicago. She came with nothing—bereft even of the comfort of a family photo. Surviving relatives and friends embraced Lillian by gathering up and sending her all the pre-war family photos they could find. Because of this, Lillian was at least in part, able to recover a portion of her collection: faces to go with the memories of loved ones stolen by Hitler. Lillian was a beauty. Even the war had not robbed her of that. No one knows how she ended up a contestant in the Queen of the Palestine Emergency Show pageant or even whether she won. But everyone acknowledges that she had what it took to compete. Lillian Riess, circa 1946-1948, Chicago Little could be found by this writer of the Palestine Emergency...Read More |
Everyone knows about Turkeys' occupation of Northern Cyprus.
But Turkey also occupied large swaths of territory in northern Syria, and the people who scream about the evil of Israeli "occupation" are silent. Not only that, but Turkey is threatening to invade Syria, and - again - the people who are upset about countries like Russia invading their neighbors seem to not have much of a problem with this.
From AP: Turkey's president told journalists that Ankara remains committed to rooting out a Syrian Kurdish militia from northern Syria. "Like I always say, we'll come down on them suddenly one night. And we must," Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on his plane following his Saturday visit to Azerbaijan, according to daily Hurriyet newspaper and other media. Without giving a specific timeline, Erdogan said that Turkey would launch a cross-border operation against the Syrian Kurdish People's Protection Units, or YPG, which it considers a terrorist group linked to an outlawed Kurdish group that has led an insurgency against Turkey since 1984. That conflict with the Kurdistan Workers' Party, PKK, has killed tens of thousands of people. However, the YPG forms the backbone of U.S.-led forces in the fight against the Islamic State group. American support for the group has infuriated Ankara and remains a major issue in their relations. Ankara has launched...Read More |
From Ian: Joe Truzman: Why Is Israeli-Palestinian Violence Returning to Jenin? All this started coming apart with the pandemic lockdowns in 2020 and the burgeoning internal rivalries of various Palestinian armed factions gearing up for an inevitable succession battle in the Palestinian Authority, as Abbas rounds out his ninth decade and begins the eighteenth year of a four-year term in office. The Gaza conflict in May last year accelerated the return to violence. The escape of six militants (most of whom are members of PIJ) from a prison in northern Israel, just across the line from Jenin, also rallied fighters across the Palestinian territories. Lastly, IDF operations in the West Bank throughout 2021 resulted in an unusually high number of militant deaths. These deaths prompted terrorist organizations in Jenin to reorganize and establish a joint operations room to respond to IDF incursions more effectively. The result was a marked increase in clashes with IDF troops. Exacerbating the problem in Jenin was a wave of high-profile terrorist attacks deep inside Israeli territory beginning in late March this year. In some cases, the attackers were identified as residents of Jenin, which intensified both the almost daily IDF operations in the city and the militant's response to the added incursions. Though investigations are ongoing, the daytime raids by the IDF were a possible...Read More |
As mentioned, before Palestinian terror groups decided not to start a promised war to stop the Flag March on Yom Yerushalayim, Palestinian media was inciting to violence and psyching up the people for another war. Here are some cartoons from Felesteen that are self-explanatory. After the Palestinian terror group decision not to start a war, this cartoon expresses frustration over the lack of response by the rest of the Arab world towards Israel's actions in Jerusalem because of normalization: (h/t Ibn Boutros) * * * * * * Buy the EoZ book, PROTOCOLS: Exposing Modern Antisemitism today at Amazon!

I noted last week that for a week before Yom Yerushalayim, Palestinian terror groups and media were in a frenzy anticipating a massive terror response to the Flag March, threatening a religious war if Jews would march through Jerusalem and all but promising that Gaza rockets would be fired and a new terror wave begun. It appears that Israel contacted their Arab friends and those states pressured Hamas not to respond. It worked, and here is a case where the Abraham Accords - derided by "experts" as a meaningless agreement that doesn't affect the core conflict - actually helped avert a war. However, Hamas and Islamic Jihad now have to explain to their audiences why they didn't attack after a week of inciting them to war.
And that is exactly what they are doing. From Islamic Jihad: Muhammad Al-Hindi, a member of the Political Bureau of the Islamic Jihad Movement and official in the political department, confirmed today, Sunday, that...Read More |
