Israel Threaten with Boycott by Bigots

Steven Shamrak

The European Union's ambassador to Israel has warned the Jewish State that it would likely endure "increasing isolation" if peace talks with the Palestinians collapse. Lars Faaborg-Andersen said that such a scenario wouldn't necessarily be a result of European policy, but rather the actions of private companies (is it a given order?). His comments echo those made by US Secretary of State John Kerry, who is brokering the talks and who warned last week that the boycott would expand if talks fail (he is supposed to be an impartial broker). Regarding a possible economic boycott, Netanyahu said that "the same international forces pressuring Israel should be pressuring the Palestinian Authority and clarify what the ramifications of failing to reach a peace agreement would be for the Palestinians." (As long as Jews suffer - bigots do not care about 'poor Palestinians'. Not once, during the entire Arab-Israel conflict, have those traditional anti-Semites of Europe and all Americas threatened Arab/Muslim countries, PLO, PA or Hamas with isolation, economic boycott or withholding aid funds if they do not stop their terror campaign against Israel. Even after 9/11 Saudi Arabia is still the best friend of the United States!)

Oxfam and Other Bigots

Actress Scarlett Johansson has quit her role as an ambassador for Oxfam, the charity said, after she fell out with the group for endorsing an Israeli firm operating in the occupied West Bank. The Hollywood star has become the public face for drinks-maker SodaStream and is due to appear in an advert for the company that is set to air during the US 'Super Bowl' football game. (Anti-Semitic international NGOs do not need a reason to hate Israel . They love 'hot-spots' which are created by Islamic terrorist groups. It justifies their corrupt existence and obtaining tax-payers' funds, so generously provided to them by 'Israel-friendly' governments. SodaStream employs 500 Arabs, but Oxfam would prefer them to sit home and play a role of "poor refugees"!)

Settlements is Excuse Used by European Nazis

Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman is certain that the issue of settlements is only an excuse for those who seek to boycott Israel . Lieberman believes that due to the process of "Islamization" in Europe, along with its severe economic crisis. European countries are working towards boycotting Israel in order to gain Arab funds. Israeli diplomats in embassies in Europe have identified a negative trend that is on the rise, and a tendency to present a caring front towards Palestinians. "There are companies that decide to boycott Israeli companies because they want to be part of this wave," a Foreign Ministry source said. "In fact, it is almost impossible to do anything against it." (They used to boycott Jewish businesses before WW2, now they boycott Israel. Decent people must boycott companies that boycott Israel!)

No Boycott or Sanctions Against Sri Lanka?

US Assistant Secretary of State Nisha Biswal said Washington would table the third UN human rights (useless) resolution against Sri Lanka for violations of international rules against war crimes. (sanctions are not under consideration, just another fake condemnation). The UN believes 40,000 people died during the final months of Sri Lanka's 25 year civil war. (In contrast, in spite of almost 70 years of war against Arab/Muslim countries and their proxies - PLO, PA, Hamas and Hezbollah - Israel has been conducting the fight against Islamic terrorism in the most humane way, trying to prevent "collateral damage", unlike Assad who is using indiscriminate barrel-bombs against his own people in Syria and even the US in Iraq and Afghanistan .)

Calls for Boycott Encourage Terrorism

The number of terrorist attacks targeting Jews in Judea and Samaria increased significantly in 2013 over the previous year, according to a report published by Israel s domestic security agency, the Shin Bet. Overall, 1,271 terrorist attacks were reported in 2013, up from just 578 in 2012. Six Israelis were killed in terror attacks in 2013. Three of those killed over the last year were the victims of knife attacks, two were shot by Palestinian snipers, and one was executed after being abducted by Arab terrorists.

Food for Thought by Steven Shamrak

It is difficult to explain how the supposedly democratic Western press has been giving in to Islamists, be it the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt or Sunni Wahhabists in Syria . Are those left-inclined correspondents and editors so suicidal that they are willing to welcome a despotic new world Caliphate, knowing that Islamists hate atheists even more than democrats? They are going to be the first victims of the new Islamic order!

Obama's Muslim Brotherhood Family Connection

Egyptian security forces have been monitoring Malik Obama's activities. Malik is managing funds for both the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and the Islamic Dawa Organization in Sudan, which has been designated by the US State Department as a terrorist state.

'Peace' Plan will be Reviewed Again

Secretary of State John Kerry has ordered a reassessment of Gen. John Allen's Israeli-Palestinian security plan - especially the replacement of Israeli units along the Jordan Valley border shared between Israel and Jordan. Not only is Israel emphatically opposed to this, so too is Jordan's King Abdullah, who won't hear of his kingdom's exposure to US electronic devices or a Palestinian presence. (No pressure on Jordan to accept this bogus plan! As it is said: "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting it to come out different")

Israel is the US 's Major Strategic Partner

Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, along with Rep Ted Deutch, who are the top two members on the House Foreign Affairs Committee's Middle East subcommittee, have introduced a bill naming Israel a "major strategic partner" of the United States, a title enjoyed by no one else on the planet, and encouraging enhanced cooperation on water, energy, homeland security, and missile development.

Best Friend of the US Behind Islamic Jihad!

A captured member of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant claims that the ISIL and other Islamic militant groups in Syria are led by Prince Adbul Rahman al-Faisal, the son of the late King Faisal of Saudi Arabia and the brother of the current Saudi Foreign Minister, Prince Saud al-Faisal. This revelation suggests the Saudi leadership is directly funding the Islamic militant groups, which have basically taken over the opposition forces. (It is a well-known secret that Wahhabi Saudi Arabia promotes, in stealth, the world domination of Islam - the world Caliphate!)

Enduring Arab 'Friendliness' Toward Israel

New Tunisian Tourism Minister Amel Karboul resigned just hours after being sworn in amid controversy surrounding her 2006 visit to Israel.

White House Honored Muslim Brotherhood

A senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood - Anas Altikriti, a top British lobbyist, whose work has also been tied to Hamas - was recently hosted at the White House for a meeting with President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, prompting an outcry from critics of the global Islamist organization. (When Israel talks to China or Russia Obama is unhappy!)

Only International anti-Semites Boycott Israel

BDS (Boycott, Divest, Sanction) activists slammed PA chief Mahmoud Abbas for not joining in with them to boycott Israel - and on Monday, the PA revealed just how uninvolved it was in the BDS movement. According to a PA report, 70% of the PA's imports were from Israel, worth $3.5 billion.

Quotes of the Week:

"I am not going to be intimidated. I am not going to stand down with respect to President Obama's commitment to trying to find peace in the Middle East." - US Secretary of State John Kerry, in an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper - Many people still believe that "the king is good, ministers are bad!" Kerry has admitted that he is just a pawn of long-standing US government policy of intimidation of Israel - just because it is the Jewish state!

"We are not the ones to say where other nations should draw lines between them that will assure each the greatest security. It is clear, however, that a return to the situation of 4 June 1967 will not bring peace. There must be secure and there must be recognized borders. Some such lines must be agreed to by the neighbors involved." - US President Lyndon Johnson, referring to UN Resolution 242 September 1968 - Yet, each US administration has been pressuring Israel to make concessions, surrender Jewish land, to terrorists of the fake Palestinian nation.

Peace is not in Their Nature

by Jonathan D. Halevi

Mahmoud Abbas is not a serious partner for negotiating with Israel because he does not have the authority to make decisions for the (so-called) Palestinian people...

Abbas outlined his positions on January 10, 2014, at a meeting in Ramallah, where he demanded full sovereignty in all the territory conquered by Israel from the Kingdom of Jordan and Egypt in the defensive war it fought in 1967 ("the '67 lands"), and especially in the area called "eastern Jerusalem," which includes the Old City, the Temple Mount, the Jewish Quarter, the Western Wall, and other Jewish historical sites...

Abbas has a similar attitude regarding what the Palestinians call "the right of return," which Abbas claims is the "personal right" of every refugee and his descendants for all generations...

Abbas' words express a clear message that the Palestinians see the negotiations as simply a tool to achieve Palestinian rights according to the Palestinian viewpoint, and they are not seeking a way to compromise with Israel on essential issues...

&The first Palestinian objective in their order of priorities is to receive full sovereignty on the territory of 1967 - while leaving the conflict wide open (to gain control of all Palestine).

No Intention for Peace - Slaughter is Planned

Israel will be gone in eight years, according to Fathi Hamad, Hamas Interior Minister. Hamad noted in his speech that the PA Arabs, according to Islamic prophecies, will enter the Al Aqsa Mosque "in jubilation and victory like they entered it the first time". After the "liberation" of Al-Aqsa Mosque, said Hamad, the "Hittin" system will prevail. That statement refers to Saladin's victory over the Crusaders, when he conquered the Land of Israel during the Battle of Hittin/Hattin. Most non-Muslim forces were slaughtered or enslaved then. "We'll destroy the enemy," Hamad assured his audience, noting that achieving that goal would take "eight years."

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.

65.4 percent were anti-Jewish.
13.2 percent were anti-Islamic.
9.5 percent were anti-other religion, i.e., those not specified.
4.3 percent were anti-Catholic.
3.8 percent were anti-multiple religions, group.
3.3 percent were anti-Protestant.
0.5 percent were anti-Atheism/Agnosticism/etc.

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.
