Arabs make up a lot of fake Golda Meir quotesnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 04 May 04:45 AM Wednesday was the 125th anniversary of Golda Meir's birt | |
Wednesday was the 125th anniversary of Golda Meir's birth. She was known for many memorable expressions, but the Arab world seems to prefer to make up their own. Egyptian newspaper El Balad attributes to Meir a series of quotations that are completely fictional. It doesn't look like they made these up - these fake quotes have been mentioned in Arabic language articles (and even Arab English language articles) for a long time. You can tell a lot abut the Arab psyche by their fabrications. For example, they claim she said, "Every morning I wish to wake up and not find a single Palestinian child alive." It is an absurd libel, but it is good propaganda for Arabs who want to demonize Israelis. The next lie is that she was asked about the worst and best days of her life, and here's the fake answer: "The worst day in my life was the day when Al-Aqsa Mosque was burned, because I was afraid of the Arab and Islamic reaction. The happiest day in my life is the next day; because I saw the Arabs and Muslims did not move a finger." This is clearly meant to insult the Arab nations for not invading Israel after that 1969 arson by a mentally ill Christian. Another fantasy is that Meir was told that Islam predicts an upcoming war between Muslims and Jews, in which the Muslims will be victorious, and she answered "I know that, but the victorious Muslims are not the ones we see now, and this will not be achieved unless we see the worshipers in the...Read More |
From Ian: Enemies wage an 'unconventional' legal war against Israel Having reluctantly realized that traditional wars—with tanks, bullets and fighter planes—have failed against Israel's military prowess, enemies of the Jewish state have turned to unconventional tactics in an effort to defeat it. That includes "weaponizing" international law to delegitimize Israel, according to Michal Cotler-Wunsh, a former member of Knesset who is now a senior policy adviser and research fellow. During a speaking tour from April 17-21, which took her to the campuses of the law schools at Columbia, Yale and New York universities, as well as to the City University of New York (CUNY) and Rutgers University, Cotler-Wunsh spent an hour on the phone with JNS describing the main thesis of her lectures. An attorney by training, Cotler-Wunsh knows that legalese can confuse people and seem removed from everyday life. So she turns to an example that non-lawyers will understand demonstrates that selective application of rules and principles undermines the entire system. "When I say to a 3-year-old that we're going to play a game, and you're going to play according to the rules but I'm not, that 3-year-old will turn around and say to me, 'I don't want to play with you. You're cheating,' " Cotler-Wunsh told JNS. "The game is finished. There's no game." As preschooler games go, so goes international...Read More |
By Judean Rose Adnan didn't eat for 86 days and died. Because that's what happens to people who don't eat for 86 days. They die. Adnan was a senior Palestinian Islamic Jihad "official." In other words, a terrorist. A high-up terrorist in a major terror outfit. Now he is a dead terrorist—likely too dead to care that there were no brown-eyed virgins awaiting his corpse. While Khader Adnan was dying (because he, of his own volition, decided to die by not eating for 86 days), Palestinian Islamic Jihad issued a statement that Israel would "pay a heavy price" should Adnan die in custody. When Adnan's physical condition deteriorated and his condition became critical, the "Palestinian Prisoners Club" announced that Khader Adnan could die at any minute. Which he did. Which is generally what happens when someone doesn't eat for 86 days. They die. Virgins or not. Khader Adnan died not only because he was too stupid to eat, but because he wanted to die to give his fellow terrorists a pretext to shoot rockets and mortars from Gaza into civilian Israel, a favorite pastime of Arab terrorists. And now in the south, we have frightened Jewish children stuck in safe rooms as sirens go off all around them. As these children well know, rockets and mortars can and sometimes do kill their friends and relatives, and destroy their homes and cars. More than 100 rockets and mortars have now been shot from Gaza at Southern Israelis...Read More |
The Palestine Information Center "Maata" counted 987 acts of "resistance" in the territories and Jerusalem during April. They proudly count the murder of three "settlers" as the major accomplishment for the month. Those were Lucy Dee and her daughters Maya and Rina whom they were so proud of murdering. They also counted: 139 shootings 5 car rammings 4 stabbings 36 IEDs 23 Molotov cocktails They also claimed "hundreds" of stone throwing attacks. That's at least six violent attacks every day of April, mot of which are not even reported anywhere. Their press release also contradicts the progressive charge that Israel increases its attacks on Ramadan. They freely admit that Palestinian terror increases every Ramadan and Israel knows and prepares for it:: "The Palestinian resistance invests the blessed month of Ramadan by raising the morale of the resistance fighters and intensifying their operations. This is what the Israeli security and military services calculate when the month of Ramadan comes...Read More |
From Ian: PMW: What is US Department of State's Special Representative for Palestinian Affairs doing to implement the Taylor Force Act? The 2018 bi-partisan US Taylor Force Act (TFA) conditioned much of the US aid to the Palestinian Authority on the latter abolishing its Pay-for-Slay terror reward policy. TFA was not merely a financial law. Rather, it contained substantive Congressional findings and direction, inter alia, to the US Department of State regarding the activities required of their representatives to pressure the PA to abandon its policy. After finding that "The Palestinian Authority's practice of paying salaries to terrorists serving in Israeli prisons, as well as to the families of deceased terrorists, is an incentive to commit acts of terror" TFA added the "Sense of Congress." In this section of TFA, Congress called on the PA to abandon its terror reward policy and on other PA donor countries to cease aid to the PA until the PA abolished the policy. TFA then added directions to urge "the Department of State to use its bilateral and multilateral engagements with all governments and organizations committed to the cause of peace between Israel and the Palestinians to highlight the issue of Palestinian Authority payments for acts of terrorism and to urge such governments and organizations to join the United States in calling on the Palestinian Authority to immediately cease such payments." In recent weeks, the PA approved...Read More |
Palestinian prisoner rights NGOs are using today's World Press Freedom Day to call for Israel to release 16 "journalists' who are in prison. They claim that these journalists were arrested to curtail freedom of speech: "The occupation authorities are pursuing a number of policies to restrict freedom of opinion and expression and impose more censorship and control on the Palestinians, as part of the tools of the apartheid regime, most notably the policy of arrest, threats, house arrest, and repeated assaults in the field of work; This is in a continuous attempt to undermine their societal, cultural, and political role, and to prevent them from exposing the ongoing crimes against the Palestinians." They pointedly don't mention that these "journalists" were arrested because they engaged in terror. And many were never journalists to begin with. People like Ahmed Adeeb Ahmed Al-Saifi, a member of Hamas' Al Qassam Brigades sentenced to 17 years in 2011 for his involvement in a shooting attack. He became a "journalist" during his time in prison. Or Bassem Khandakji, a PFLP member who drove a 16 year old to blow himself up at the Carmel Market in 2004, killing 3 civilians. He also started writing...Read More |
