President Abbas, Tear Down the Incitement

Nurit Greenger

On June 12, 1987 Ronald Reagan, then the president of the United States, challenged Mikhail Gorbachev, then the Communist Soviet Union leader. Reagan stood at the Brandenburg Gate, near the Berlin Wall that separated Communist east Berlin from West Berlin and said, "Tear down this wall!" Meaning, Reagan challenged Gorbachev, who was then the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, to tear the Wall down as an emblem of Gorbachev's desire to increase freedom in the Eastern Bloc through "glasnost" ("transparency") and "perestroika" ("restructuring").

The Communist regime isolated the people and thus controlled their minds. For many decades the people did not know what kind of a life exists beyond the Communist iron curtain.

Then Reagan spoke, the people acted and the iron curtain came tumbling down and the Soviet Union fell apart and people smelt freedom.

Since the Six Day War of June 1967 Israel has been dealing with an Arab enemy named "Palestinians" – whom she gained with the territory she regained from its Arab illegal occupiers. These Arabs reside in Israel's midst. Over the years, with a great assistance of Israel's mistaken policy, these Arabs caused the Israelis much death, mayhem and anguish. To control the people and instill and prolong the hate the Arabs harbor for Jews from time immemorial, and now for Israel, the Arab-"Palestinian" leadership constantly incites the young generation to hate Jews and Israel, to want to go to war with Israel and destroy the state so they can take back the land they lost but never was theirs, and to kill the Jews. President Reagan said, Gorbachev, tear down the wall, I say, Abbas, tear down the incitement.

Antisemitism is always in a back to the future mode. This human psychological disease that creates endorphin of hate of Jews is incurable. This disease last attack brought about the killing of 6 Million innocent Jews.

Let us identify what we are dealing with today? The Arab-"Palestinians" are antisemitic, genocidal and eliminationist; they are the enemy of the Jews just as the Nazis were. The cowardly West is their collaborationist. We can either talk in terms of WWII victorious Churchill or appeaser Chamberlin.

Those who speak about establishing an Arab state, called Palestine, in Judea and Samaria that is supposed to live in peace with Israel are thinking Pollyannaish, meaning are having unreasonably or illogically optimism. How can you establish a peace loving state with people their mind is filled with hate and vengeance for the people they suppose to live in peace with? Impossible task. Will never happen!

What do the Middle East countries want from themselves? From Israel?

The Middle East is a nest of religious differences. It is built on the foundations of power struggle. These foundations are shaky and constantly ready to shift. In this Middle East G-D bestowed upon a tribe of Jews land He promised them to be the land of milk and honey; this is the land of Israel. While the foundations of all states around her are unstable, modern Israel managed to isolate herself from those shaky grounds. The Jewish state is thriving and advancing on any level possible. Sadly, great portion of the world is making endless efforts to destabilize her foundation in any way possible.

The roof and the foundations of the Middle East are falling apart; termites are eating the walls and the basement is flooded in Egypt and Syria and Lebanon and Iraq do not look any better, yet John Kerry is in the yard wanting to clean the pool, making endless efforts to "fix" Israel's relations with the Arab-"Palestinians" while ignoring how rotten their mindset towards the Jews is.

There is this term Perfidious Albion, which is a pejorative phrase used within the context of International relations and diplomacy to refer to acts of duplicity, treachery and hence infidelity, with respect to promises made to or alliances formed with other nation states, in their pursuit of self-interest and the requirements of realpolitik. This is how the world treats Israel. It holds her to one standard no other country is subjected to; it ignores agreements it has signed with her, or witnessed to, which, time and time again confirms it is not her friend, it will back her up of stand up for her in time of trouble. The latest, the perfect storm of British and American leadership's ineptitude and gutlessness that have sent the wrong message to the butcher of Damascus and the genocidal Iranian regime, and have left Israel more certain than ever that it cannot rely on anyone else but herself.

From the time they were exiled from their land, 2000 years ago, Jews had a dream, to return home and start from where they left off. Many Jews have not made it home yet so they continue the dream. Irresponsibly, the world simply cannot leave the Jews alone to build the land they were thrown out of and to where they returned and have built from scratch. It is either the Arab neighbors who interfere with the construction with aggressive wars, or it is the Arab-"Palestinians" who create chaos and mayhem and much death. Israel is forever on edge and on alert.

While in exile, for 2000 years Jews lived in nothingness; when they arrived to their homeland they faced the ruins they left behind. Hardly anything changed during their absence of so many years. Desolation was everywhere. So what the Jews did with that nothingness? They began building greatness, that greatness that God delegated to them as his chosen children.

I ask the world to leave Israel alone to deliver His greatness to the world. I ask the world to stop attempting to destroy that greatness. This type evil was used against Jews for millennium. Each time their greatness excelled, evil people destroyed it.

In the past 65 years Israel has gone from strength to strength and excelled and there are forces today, from within and without what are working to destroy that excellence.

I speak to the world as a child of Holocaust survivors, as a Jewess, as a Sabra, Israeli born, as a mother, as a woman, as a person in anguish who sees the world falling apart because it has lost way, it has lost its moral compass. I call every person on earth to tear down the hate, the incitement, the zest for destruction. We have one world to preserve so preserve it.

In conclusion, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a German writer and politician; Goethe wrote the poem, “Das Göttliche / On the Divine” (http://matthewsalomon.wordpress.com/2008/05/02/goethe-das-gottliche-on-the-divine/)

Let the noble man

Be generous and good,

Tirelessly achieving

What is just and useful:

Let him be a model

For those beings whom he surmises.

The IDF’s Minorities in Numbers and Pictures

In honor of IDF Diversity Week, we present diversity through numbers and pictures. Each year, more and more Muslims, Christians, Druze, Bedouin and immigrants from around the world take on the responsibility of defending Israel.

MUSLIMS:

Muslim Arab Israelis are not required to draft in the IDF, but there are many who volunteer. In 2013, there were over 200 Muslims serving in the IDF and over 300 in the reserves.

Bedouins:

Bedouins are nomadic Muslims who were in Israel when modern borders were set in place and are now considered Israeli citizens. They are not required to draft but a growing number choose to enlist. In 2012, there were over 1,400 Bedouin Muslim soldiers doing regular IDF service and almost 1,500 in the reserves.

Are you aware that in 2013, Middle class taxes go up-significantly?

In January of next year, the federal income tax rate for middle-class taxpayers is scheduled to rise from 25 percent to 28 percent, and the payroll tax is scheduled to rise from 13.3 percent to 15.3 percent… This drives the marginal tax rate based on the aforementioned three taxes to 48.12 percent. Add in state and local property, corporate, excise, and other state and local taxes, and the percentage of each additional dollar that is taxed hovers around 50 percent… When half of each additional dollar earned is taxed away, taxpayers experience a disincentive to start businesses or expand existing ones. This leads to fewer jobs being created.

Why is HAMAS Inside Tampa Schools?

Clare Lopez

Kelly Miliziano, who teaches history classes at Steinbrenner High School in the Tampa, Florida area apparently thinks it’s perfectly OK to invite a senior official of a HAMAS-affiliated organization into her classroom to discuss Islam with her students. According to local media reports, not only has this been going on for years, but in spite of the civil and criminal proceedings that could result from such reckless negligence, the Hillsborough County school superintendent, Mary Ellen Elia, and the chairman of the school board, Candy Olson, also expressed approval for students under their responsibility to be exposed repeatedly to guest speaker, Hassan Shibly, who is the Executive Director for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in the Tampa area.

Did You Know... Ignoring the Call to Islam will Bring Jihad

‘Conquest through Da’wa [proselytizing] that is what we hope for. We will conquer Europe, we will conquer America! Not through sword but through Da’wa.’
-- Yousef al-Qaradawi , Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader The Arabic word ‘Da’wa’ means the “call to Islam.” But do not think that Da’wa is the same thing as an invitation to an optional holiday event. The classical Islamic doctrine of jihad mandates that enemies must be given the opportunity to convert to Islam or pay the jizya tax before it is permissible to attack them.

On March 31, 1977, the Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview

with PLO executive committee member Zahir Muhsein. Here's what he said:

"The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct "Palestinian people" to oppose Zionism.

For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan."

The Arab Apartheid

Ben-Dror Yemini
In 1948, the Arab countries refused to accept the UN partition proposal and they launched a war of annihilation against the State of Israel which had barely been established. All precedents in this matter showed that the party that starts the war - and with a declaration of annihilation, yet - pays a price for it. Between 550,000 and 710,000 Arabs fled because of the war and a larger number of 850,000 Jews were expelled or fled from Arab countries (the "Jewish nakba").
Population exchanges and expulsions were the norm at that time, occurring in dozens of other conflict points and affecting about 52 million people. In all the population exchange precedents that occurred during or at the end of an armed conflict, there was no return of refugees to the previous region, which had turned into a new national state.
Only the Arab states acted completely differently from the rest of the world. Instead of assimilating the refugees, they crushed them despite the fact that they were their coreligionists and members of the Arab nation - instituting a regime of apartheid. So the "nakba" was not caused by the actual dispossession, which had also been experienced by tens of millions of others. The "nakba" is the story of the apartheid, oppression, abuse and denial of rights suffered by the Arab refugees at the hands of the Arab countries. (Maariv)

International Law and Military Operations in Practice - Col. Richard Kemp

"Islamist fighting groups study the international laws of armed conflict carefully and they understand it well. They know that a British or Israeli commander and his men are bound by international law and the rules of engagement that flow from it. They then do their utmost to exploit what they view as one of their enemy's main weaknesses. Their very modus operandi is built on the correct assumption that Western armies will normally abide by the rules, while these insurgents employ a deliberate policy of operating consistently outside international law. "

Lost Historical Moments

What Rabin’s last Knesset speech really said:repudiation of a Palestinian state

Rabin ruled out a fully sovereign Palestinian state :

“We view the permanent solution in the framework of State of Israel which will include most of the area of the Land of Israel as it was under the rule of the British Mandate, and alongside it a Palestinian entity which will be a home to most of the Palestinian residents living in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. We would like this to be an entity which is less than a state, and which will independently run the lives of the Palestinians under its authority.”

Rabin ruled out a total withdrawal from Judea and Samaria and thus a return to the pre-June 1967 borders :

“The borders of the State of Israel, during the permanent solution, will be beyond the lines which existed before the Six Day War. We will not return to the 4 June 1967 lines.”

Rabin ruled out withdrawing form the Jordan Valley:

“The security border of the State of Israel will be located in the Jordan Valley, in the broadest meaning of that term.”

Rabin ruled out uprooting settlement blocs, like the Gush Katif bloc in Gaza (which was subsequently uprooted by former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon):

“The establishment of blocs of settlements in Judea and Samaria, like the one in Gush Katif.

AND

Rabin ruled out removing any settlement before coming to a full peace agreement with the Palestinians:

“I want to remind you: we committed ourselves, that is, we came to an agreement, and committed ourselves before the Knesset, not to uproot a single settlement in the framework of the interim agreement, and not to hinder building for natural growth.”

Rabin insisted on Israel retaining full security control of the borders with Egypt and Jordan, contrary to Israel’s relinquishment of the Philadelphia Corridor on the border with Egypt:

“The responsibility for external security along the borders with Egypt and Jordan, as well as control over the airspace above all of the territories and Gaza Strip maritime zone, remains in our hands.”

Correcting Oslo Myths-Part 2

3) Kuttab laments that the post-1993 Oslo process resulted in a Palestinian Authority "whose ministers and legislators are not guaranteed passage between Gaza and the West Bank ...."

Before free passage or other perquisites, PA leaders were obligated, among other things, to eliminate the terrorist infrastructure in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, end anti-Israeli, antisemitic incitement in schools, mosques, and communications media, and resolve all outstanding issues through peaceful negotiations. They met none of these commitments, sometimes bolstering terrorism and greatly increasing incitement.

4) Kuttab complains that under Oslo the PA got "lightly armed police ---- but no real sovereignty over the land or contiguity between our communities in Gaza and the West Bank."

Oslo agreements repeatedly were revised, regardless of Palestinian non-compliance, until the authorized number of police grew from 8,000 to 40,000. Though they were to be the only armed forces in the territories, Israeli estimates early in the second intifada put the number of gunmen - police, "security services," terrorists, and armed gangs - at 85,000. Their armament reportedly included not only heavy machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades, but also anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles.

Sovereignty was to be negotiated in the envisioned 1998 "final status" talks - after a five-year period of confidence-building. Palestinian leadership chronically undermined the process. Palestinian terrorism made the 1993 - 1998 Oslo period more deadly for Israelis than the 15 years preceding it.

The United States doesn't have contiguity between the lower 48 states and Alaska and Hawaii; territorial contiguity between the West Bank and Gaza Strip - that is, through the 20 miles of Israeli territory between them - was never promised and would destroy Israeli contiguity.

5) "Palestinians have been made to endure hundreds of checkpoints in the West Bank, an eight-foot wall deep in our territories, and tight Israeli control over borders."

The security barrier is not "deep in Palestinian territories," but rather encompasses less than 8 percent of Judea and Samaria, and is mostly a fence, rarely a wall; the land in question is not "our [Palestinian] territories" but disputed territory to which, according to the authors of U.N. Security Council Resolution 242, Jews as well as Arabs have claims; and there are no international borders, only the 1949 armistice lines with Jordan. Under 242, borders remain to be negotiated. As for checkpoints - like the security barrier and "tight Israeli control" - Palestinian Arabs precipitated these measures themselves. No terrorism and there would be no fence or tight Israeli control and few checkpoints - like before the first intifada.

Correcting Some Oslo Myths

1) In Oslo "Israeli, Palestinian and other world leaders promised that ... Palestinian sovereignty would be solidified."

No, they didn't. The 1993 Declaration of Principles and subsequent Oslo agreements outlined a process by which final status negotiations about the West Bank and Gaza Strip would be reached. The process required an end to anti-Israel terrorism and incitement and a commitment to peaceful negotiations. The PA, Fatah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and other terrorist groups, sabotaged the process from the start.

2) "The reality is that, in defiance of U.N. Security Council Resolution 242, which states that it is inadmissible to occupy land by force, Palestinian territories are still under foreign military occupation."
Wrong again. Resolution 242 (1967) does note "the inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by war." It also affirms the right of every state in the area "to live in peace with secure and recognized boundaries free from threats or acts of force." There were no "Palestinian territories." Jordan occupied the West Bank, Egypt controlled Gaza. Israel did not have "secure and recognized boundaries," so retention of some of those territories was possible under 242. Israel is not a "foreign" military occupier in the West Bank but, pending final negotiations, the lawful military administrator as a result of a successful war of self-defense.
